I've read some stuff on the net about takin a mirror or glass and putting it under the male to catch the pollen. Then put it in a zip lock bag with a razor blade. Cover the branch u wanna pollinate and zip the bag as much as u can and shake it to polinate. Or take a qtip and put it on, wouldn't have to worry bout it spreadin everywhere then. Just make sure its a lower branch

iv heard about that before too, im more concerned if this seeds will be good or not because i heard if you breed two plants and grow those seeds the seeds will not produce the bud you want because the recessive traits will come out

Lol hell yea lots to read. But let me ask u or anyone that will answer. If u have a short male that produces lots of pollen and a short female that produces good bud, would the majority of the seeds share that quality?

you think so? im glad none of mine hermed i really thought i was stressing them allot but i guess not. i cant wait to see what i yeild i need to pull at least three os off all of my plants because i told my fiance i wouldnt put anymore money into it until i can stop buying it outta my paycheck, but right now i spend about 100 a week so as soon as i stop ill be able to invest a shit ton more into it

Hell yea bro I think she's gonna become a he/she. I kno what u mean bout spendin a lot of money on this too, I promised my fiancé the same thing. Hopefully all I gotta get now is some white widow and I may try to find me some smaller buckets to start em in to save nutes. Man I think ull reach ur goal. If ur close to it try topping once next time and lst the 2 main branches good and ull get it no problem. Have u considered getting a cool tube on thé 250 instead of a bigger light. That's save a lot of money, help get tighter buds, and keep temps down

iv been bidding on cool tubes on ebay the last two weeks im determined to get one for less than forty with shipping iv come close a couple times but i figure ill get it soon. i pump cold air into my buckets and have a box fan to circulate air around the box so my temps stay pretty low for the most part. but i deff want one

I got mine for 50. Guy makes em and sell em. It works pretty good but I liked the way my light was spread with the open hood better but I can get it closer but its the best deal that I found and it works great. But it measures 4 3/4 in so its hard for flex to fit but I use six in so its not really a big deal

3 weeks into flower first time adding earth juice bloom powder and cal-mag, hopefully next weeks pictures arent RIP ones . the little guys stalk and stems are very weak and thin any specific reason for this? im thinking lack of light because due to my lack of space i had to move him to the closet with some cfls because the big guys needed more room they are nearly 4 feet tall and 3 feet wide
