Just figured I'd put it out there for anyone interested. I decided to try spraying my tarts cut with CS only 1x a day vs 2x-3x a day to see if it would still effectively reverse. It did.

I used roughly 24pppm CS, sprayed just nodes and not fan leaves, started spraying 5 days before and continued till male flowers started forming.

Im sure some strains/cultivars are more stubborn. Roughly used 8oz of CS water total. A smaller clone, not a bush lol.

Plucked a premature pod last night and tapped it today to see a bit of pollen. Now just gotta see if it is viable.

Start flush on this Cannarado herm creation(topanga lemon #7 x dubb sundae herm). Real frosty but not the densest. Smells like earthy/incense and onions. Smells like hippy sweat honestly. This is the seed plant and it’s just in one of my smaller cob cabs I run in the mid-upper 80’s. Looking forward to seeing how the clones turn out44A2B005-C327-4B4D-BD2B-7B457CFC64E3.jpeg59CF4701-9CEF-4719-8179-BFA0B3329294.jpeg165BEF3A-DF72-4B89-B2AC-FBA958847029.jpeg

Any experience with STS? I have the stuff to mix some up... want to devote one of my small cabs to seed making, at least for a run or two. Got any tips on running a cab with a male and not letting pollen out?

Males are a bit tricky once they really start dropping pollen. Just try not to move it around much because pollen will fly. Just isolate it in another room, change clothes moving between rooms and spray down excess with water to help prevent stray pollen.

I haven't used sts yet but heard it is just one or 2 applications and you're done.

With feminized pollen I found the pollen usually doesn't fly like male's pollen does. So reversed plants aren't as hard to keep from dusting a crop. Just be mindful of open sacs and what not.

Lookin like an Indian summer around these parts. These ladies look frosted out in recycled soil and loaded with seeds. I kind of feel like this might actually be runnable outdoor here at 43N. One got botrytis in a nug when it was really rainy, I was considering culling her but they all look pretty nice and she looks like a heavier one. If she shows signs again I’ll kill her, I think this open pollination could be a good opportunity to further this dank line outdoors in a shitty environment since they’re showing out. The resin male is slowly reveging and I have all the females backed up. I’ll do a small tent with the Cali king select female and some outcrosses.8FE87927-C4B8-4CFF-88FD-83CD0AE0C86F.jpeg7ACA084C-DB29-42AE-AB4B-8A0A30EF22C3.jpeg
