i use a big mirror laid on the table....inside the house away from any virgins.......gently tap the trunk with the flowers close to the glass, after he is milked.....take a razor blade and scrape it up into a pile...place in small container...then take a small paint brush and gently apply to a few floral clusters....mark branch with twist tie.....i like hitting a non-dominant branch on the outside perimeter.... pollinate between 3 and 4 weeks of flower....good luck.Hey Nugs and fellow Mainliners,
My MozPoz males are blooming and dropping dust!
Questions:
1. What is the best way to selectively apply the pollen to the flowers?
2. Which flowers are best to pollinate?
Thanks!
Mo

very nice...yeah just a little bit more suppercropping would have flattened her out a bit, but she looks great.....those are going to be some donkeys!Thought I'd share a pic of my first try at mainlining... this is a Jillybean that I mainlined... she spent about 56 days in veg and I probably could have super cropped her a bit more
Thanks, means a ton coming from you, fell in love with your threads a while backvery nice...yeah just a little bit more suppercropping would have flattened her out a bit, but she looks great.....those are going to be some donkeys!
you are going to love the yield!Thanks, means a ton coming from you, fell in love with your threads a while back
I am super excited even though I lost 2 tops at one point when I was tying down;
Will definitely be using this method with my main cola dominant strains in the future assuming a good yield..
Your original description of mainlining also really helped me understand the growth patterns, props to you for eloquently displaying the technique for nublets like me
i try to do as little supper-cropping as possible, but will do it in the first 1/2 of stretch if needed....a fair ammount of my style is pretty gentle, with lighter pinches, to suppress just enough to get the desired effect.What's up Nugbuckets? Curious how late into the game you stop any super cropping. Do you keep squeezing stems through the stretch period? Don't remember reading that in here, but maybe I missed it.
Thanks again.
