Perfect stealth grow auto flower?

That depends largely upon where you are. In my neck of the woods they have Intent to Distribute.

Did you do some of the testing yourself? Did male or female plants seem to work best for passing the pineapple traits?
That is largely unknown at this point on both accounts.

Must have 500 of these seeds but getting them to germinate is a son-of-a-britches. Decided to see how many pots would fit into tent.. Decided to take the LED and place that.. (Cant hurt).. Also took one male and a Fermi out to cross.. Placed another 3.
Gave you rep for this project.

"Smallest plant" is definitely a niche worth filling, and I love the fact that you're actually trying to do something different.

If you're "serious" about pursuing this, I'd suggest trying to do your selections for two factors (only): Small size and potency. (IE there is nothing worse than low yield AND low potency, and having really high potency "nanoplants" is a pretty worthwhile goal, I think). Once you've dialed in the smallest possible plant genes, you may want/have to introduce new genetics to boost potency.

In terms of germination, two tips: First of all, as you probably know, early harvested seeds tend to have low germination rates. You really want to harvest as late as you can if you want to create viable seeds. Next, light intensity matters here. If the plants aren't getting tons of light, the seeds may have low viability.

Thanks for the advice! This is after all just a hobby. Truth be told after crossing the Pineapple Chunk with the short stuff auto and the Afghan Kush Auto, Not sure where the genetics wen't from there. I use the hobby paint brush method and partially pollinate only select parts of the plant with several strands at a time at different locations. And yes, they may not have had enough time. The Pineapple short stuff was probably the most notable. Though it was a full featured plant, it was 1/2 as short as the original.
The only reason I started this is because I get high and I get busy.. So after adding in what I considered a local rudella wish I had pics, and recrossed with pineapple chunk one more time.. This is whats left.. I have no idea what the end result will be. I do know now that I am not expecting a lot with potency.. I may try and recross with the half pineapple-afghan and short stuff one more time.. I dunno!

Thanks all! 3 different plants.. Almost uniformed! Or maybe just 2 plants.. SHit! Just in case anybody was wondering.. I have a 200w cfl (actual) 2700k 15000 lumens, 6 26 watt cfl's and a sun grow system LED on the harvest side for more red...

Those Hydrofarm buckets RULE!!!!! I have some and they are great for soil or hydro applications. Looks good alley. Stay crunchy! Crunch*

Pic one is of a female in week 6 from seed. Her genetics are too tall for what I want. But I did make her pregnant with a short male on one outer stem just in case she's potent.
Pic 2 is of a pregnant female crossed with a very short male.
Pic 3 is the same plant, just zoomed out. Notice the budding and she's shorter than a Popsicle stick!
Pic 4 is a final product test. GONNA SMOKADATSHIT!!
Pic 5 looks as though it's a cross of the first plant and something in the middle.

I get so confused sometimes what it is that I have going on here. I know now that documentation is essential since I can't remember shit after taking ambien..
I will make another post describing my lighting array. You might have noticed the different lighting situation in the same tent. I do have a breeding cabinet and that's another post all together.

Peace out my friends!!
 
I want to see how these turn out.

Are you going to do a grow journal for the plants in the PC case?

I would be very interested in getting my hands on some of those bad boys.

I haven't started a journal on the pc case yet. I started 1 seed and figured out it was going to need some more lighting. It got kind of stretchy So I pulled it!! Wanted to start out the right way.

GGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AlleyWalker! You da man! Your setup and breeding is for sure overlooked, and I for one am guilty. For shame. I have no experience in breeding, but like all things Green, i read up. Auto seed production is very interesting, and I think what you and Trousers are doing is classy.

This strain my need some work, but that's what we're here for broseph. I really like that PC case. I laughed at those things a decade ago before DWC became so prominent, and i became less ignorant. That thing ROCKS! anxious to see how that turns out. Stay crunchy man! I will return! Crunch* Crunch*
