Is this the start of a seed!?!?

WellRaisedPlant · Jul 11, 2023

I’ve started polination process. 3 males, 4 females. I’m trying to learn the signs of what to make sure to see for successful breeding. Let me know your thoughts or any tips that can help!

Yes that is a seed forming 100 percent

Daino · Jul 12, 2023

No that is not a seed that is a female plant 150% makes don't grow the white pistils you can see Google early female flower pictures, trust me its a female your all good

Daino · Jul 12, 2023

Male flowers looks like a little bunch of grapes not just 1 like that

He asked if it's a seed forming, not if it's a male plant. Female plants produce seeds when pollinated with viable pollen.

It's not a seed that's what he asked and he got that answer ITS NOT A SEED

Daino · Jul 12, 2023

Again seed form in groups like grapes which this is nothing like seeds look it up if your confused

It's a calyxe look it up

But you did quantify that it's not a seed because it's a female plant. That's what I was replying to. I didn't say if it was a seed or not. I'm not confused at all.

Seeds form in calyces. It could be a seed and based on the orange hair I'd likely pluck it off and open it to check.

Daino · Jul 12, 2023

In a mature female plant, the calyx will grow, and eventually open to expose the pistils, which look like long, white hairs. In a male, this does not occur. Instead, the buds droop down and form pollen

Daino · Jul 12, 2023

Calyxes are on every single female plant in the 11 years growing I have yet to see a fem without them both male and female get them

Daino · Jul 12, 2023

The only time you will get any seeds in the calyxes is if the plant becomes a hermie along the cycle

Or if it is pollinated by a male plant.

This is an axillary calyx on my Mr. Nice SSH F2 I just finished running.

Here it is when I open it:

As you can see it contains a seed. So until that calyx is open we won't know if there is or is not a seed and only females produce seeds. I hope that helps.

This was a regular seed crop not a reversal or a herm if that helps. Mostly I run seeded crops.

@Daino not trying to be rude but I think you are a little fuzzy on this subject, respectfully your posts seem to show you are aware but not fully competent in this subject. Your posts may confuse newer growers with partially inaccurate info/misinformation

Thank you! I appreciate your time! I’m learning by every grow I do!

If it didn’t have the white stripe in the middle I would say early normal calyx, to me from my observations that white stripe means a seed is starting to form up in there,
