thru the winter. I'll pop some autoflowers after New Years.
Huh, a plant with TGA genetics going hermie? You don't say (<sarcasm) Anyway, where's the hermie parts?
Tendency to herm can only be determined by growing the seeds out but that shouldnt be the deciding factor on whether or not you make seeds with your plants or not. If a plant did not express anything that I considered desirable plus it hermed, I would definitely not consider using it for seeds. Ideally you want to wait to see the finished product before you determine if you want to use its offspring or use the plant to make seed. In your case, you are on the fence about even taking the plant the distance and seeing what s(he's) about, which if you ask me is not a proper start for a seed making journey.
Bodhi has mentioned some of his more unstable strains did better when grown from clone vs straight from seed but I wonder if there is any plant mechanisms behind this or is it just the grower becoming more familiar with the strain. Theoretically, a clone should behave exactly the same as the plant it was taken from right? I grew his lemon zinger for about 2 years before letting her go, and it evolved quite a bit over time and the last few harvests looked much different than the first few, granted our short and long seasons do have their own effects on flower structures.
I don't see any flower parts. Are there balls forming? Got a pic?
I've heard of plenty of guys who had good success from clone even though the first plant from seed hermied.
I too have witnessed clones come out better than the seed parent, I read somewhere that sativa and sativa dom strains tend to get better as they mature so in a sense the clone will be more mature than the seed parent. Which would produce a more mature and better product imho
I'm having good success pulling the balls off and I haven't seen any new ones yet. Also already seeing some trichomes in week 2 so maybe not all is lost
The Jilly Bean smelled like lemon pinesol? That's not what I was guessing it would smell like with a name like Jilly Bean, ha ha.Burned my nose! The lemon was like sticking you nose in a bottle of lemon pinesol!
Both way too strong for me. Crossing them with Pakistani Punch and with Mulanje really brought the intensity down to a subtle glow.
The diesel smell coming off of the MDL #1 reveg is very pleasing and not repulsive. Can't wait to give it a try
Pulling a ton of Maui Wowie fathered seeds off of her.
Right on, that's good news. Keep checking regularly for balls or nanners.
