How are you going about it? Have you tried colloidal silver? It is so easy to make, the whole process is super easy.

Yea, I make my own CS. Got male flowers to form but they didn't open. I'm trying again as we speak, and I'll try again next round if this doesn't work.

Yea, I did have a bunch of pollen sacs but they never opened up for weeks, so I just killed off the plant. Im going to try again with some STS at some point when I can afford it.

about to kill off my mob males

about to kill off my mob males

males, as in plural? What did you use to self them?

 

[BuCk50]

I had a cut of MOB and seeds someone else did MOB x freezland? and crossed them up just getting to see the results 1 in 3 were the MOB with the purp tinge.

 

[organicness]

oh sweet! Im doing a MOB x (Blue Stick x JTR) cross this next round. Just finished a MOB x Auto C99 fem run, and MOB x Bluebonic Guerilla, and working an auto MOB, too, with MOB x (DP Blueberry x ALF#3) which should be fun. Just finished the F2 run of the Blueberry x ALF3 and that thing is sweeeeet smelling and deeeeep purple. Really sweet.

 

[tet1953]

Well, this sucks. Lots of pollen sacs, most are opening now. All empty! Weird, no idea why. I have done the CS once before, with great success. Maybe I didn't apply long enough. I did see more pistils than I expected. I'll try again.

 

[Maine Brookies]

Bummer. It doesn't any visible pollen to make seed so hopefully you'll get a few seeds at least.

 

[tet1953]

Nah, that won't happen. The thing is definitely all male, plenty of pollen sacs. They're just all empty. I haven't looked at it with a scope yet but it doesn't look good lol.

 

[cerberus]

thats a tough one tet. if its a consolation i'll give you a couple of my mob x c99 seeds, i have 6 vegging now and they are looking killer, you can be like a tester or some shit lol

 

[tet1953]

Sounds good, cerb. It would be my pleasure to test them for you

 

[tet1953]

Any ideas what could cause this condition? I know, I'm screwing with genetics here but it worked flawlessly last time.

 

[cerberus]

i got nothing man. my only breeding tech is pollen chucking. your already in a more advanced class with your chemicals and sprays and shit

i'll bring some of those seeds to the canna-expo, i only ask if you find a good female pheno, i get a cut and don't pass the bitch around. they are precious f2's! LOL

 

[Maine Brookies]

Nah, that won't happen. The thing is definitely all male, plenty of pollen sacs.

But it had female company in the room, yes? Or was it quarantined?

 

[tet1953]

Quarantined. I'll take a couple pics later today. Every bud structure is definitely male, lots of sacs. A few of them had some pistils but those didn't develop much and most went away. The sacs are opening quite a bit, but nothing in them. I did this once before and it worked great, pollen all over the place lol. Got a couple hundred seeds of that strain now.
