I think I got them out in time as no flowers had opened, and after pondering the situation all night I think I know what happened. I think labels got mixed up somewhere in the process. Yep, another dumbass mistake on my part. The only regular seeds I planted were Mosca C-99. I think that somehow I managed to mislabel one of those as Cheese. Since I thought it was a feminized seed, I didn't bother to sex it. I think what I have is a C-99 male. Now I'm wondering if I can pollinate some clones that I have outside to make some seeds. I have some Blue Dream and Strawberry Amnesia that are 4 weeks into flower. The male has flowers that look like they will open within the next week. Would the seeds have time to mature?
Plenty of time left if you harvest some pollen and have "white" pistols on the female still!
When the un pollinated ripe buds are ready - just harvest them and leave the forming seeded ones to finish!
Sounds like you want to experiment a bit.....No problem. Simple way would be to move the Male out somewhere safe......Put a baggie over 1 or 2 branch's (2 into 1 bag) and tie it off well. When the balls get their "nut", shake the branch(s) and bag a bit, till you see yellow powder collect in the bag a bit.....BE SURE this done in a SAFE place....Like outside and down wind of the grow. Get the pollen to settle into a corner of the bag and carefully remove it and carefully seal it.....
When ready to artificially "inseminate" your lady of choice......Use a fine camel hair brush CAREFULLY dipped into the pollen and brush that onto some willing "girly" parts (pistils) and wait for the big day! The seeds should be "mature" before harvesting for seed..You know what your seeds looked like that you planted - That's what you want....Nice thing with this way is........you can only do a bud or 2 and not have to have the whole plant ravaged by the horny male!
These seeds are going to have differing pheno's that will display differing traits (F1's)......Some may be good some bad and hopefully something better then the parents ( We all want that for our kids,,don't we?)
If you find something you liked out of those AND you cloned that really nice one you like....Get out the brush and hit a few more bud sites! Same thing from these seeds (F2's) - you find a pheno you really like and you happened to be lucky enough to have cloned that one. Guess what? Hit that one again! The resulting off spring will be "cubed" or commonly known as "stabilized". You now have seeds that are - one purebred bitch!
Be careful as this practice can be habit forming!
GOOD LUCK......
(Try not to hand out the F1 seeds......wait for the cubed one's to share. Unstable cannabis genetics? We have enough already
)
.. ok that sounded ghey..
