Facts. I pollenate the lowers if possible. And keep the colas sensi. Then stagger harvest. Take my tops when ready and leave the seedy buds to keep cooking. Had some marinating an extra month on the stems ![]()
This go round im going for 2 completely diff types of males. Gonna pollenate seperate branches and mark them and try the staggerd harvest again
The guides I’ve read said to get the best part of the best plant IE top cola

well damn. Maybe i should do the tops? Anyone else concur?
I read that from Royal queen seeds or maximum yeilds one or the other, both solid advice websites I think.
Yea i get a ton of lit off RQS. They are pretty sound
No I don’t. The cola makes more seeds that’s all. Genetics is genetics and a seed is a storage facility for those genes. Seed health and genetics don’t care which part of the plant its grown on.
That was what i kinda figured. More calyx equals more seeds.
Okay seeds came in, I’m away at work right now and I currently have 4 plants going but when I’m home I can examine the seeds.
New tent is setup and I have 1 clone rack with 1 herb rack set aside for frssh cooking herbs.
I will be putting my 200w 6400k CFL’s in the little racks.
Will update in 9 days
For shits and giggles, photograph the seeds, number them, so you can test the theory of the male seed female seed thing. See if there’s any fact to it. Could be fun to run a test yes?
So where did you leave off on this adventure, need an update LOL.
Were you able to germinate any of the seeds?!
Yeah @Drinkslinger I’ve heard both sides of that opinion. But there was a dude on here that swears up and down its accurate. I’m sure there will be some mutations but if it gives you a higher percent it’s worth considering. Someone here should put it to bed need to have a lot of one kind of seed tho and record the results.
@DankGunslinger @Drinkslinger
I looked at that chart when I was selecting from my regular seeds, it just left me more confused LOL
they all looked like they either met the requirements or were all males ![]()
Luck of the draw is what it came down to, maybe a somewhat educated guess
I’m home at like 1am on the 12th, so in a week I can sort the seeds.
That being said I have a tent with 2 photos I popped in there to adjust the environment and new setup (it’s a struggle right now but getting there, new grow room, new controllers, new tent, new light, new fan etc…)
The w photos came from some bag seed my dad gave me from a friend who has a legal grow so I don’t know if they are going to both herm or what but we will see.
If they are anything but 2 females we will be firing up but if they are females we may have to wait.
Half of me wants to just toss these w photos in growing now anyways due to probably weak genetics, all I know is they are indicas with a 1:1 cbd thc ratio… That’s all I know. Seeds could be all Herms or could be normal.
Now I would rush and pull them but I have yet to dial in the new setup and I need to before I pop these rare seeds.
@garrigan62 has a bunch of regular seeds so he may be onboard to test the seed theory and keep a tally.
One thought I had was how does it show herm seeds? It’s not like we only have male and female seeds.
Pretty sure herms would show as female. Seeing as how they technically are… but
Im just a stoner
Yeah I was leaning that way to.
You are far more than that…
Little bit of a tease, this is what we are dealing with. Side note my dad re packaged them and just rounded the numbers like an old hippy does because the first mention was the 1978 year but still were good.
So the plan is to re sort these by males, females, unknowns while we wait to see if my other grows going to have space or if we have to wait till next crop (ie January)
Off to weigh and smoke some cbd stress killer sativa and then update my grow journal
Boy I’d love to get a few of those Cambo eggs! Sweet Georgia Brown!
Haha Haha, right child of the 80’s here😎 downtown brown, reggie, dirtweed, etc… I’d smoke it again! Haha I can still taste that dirty diaper, stacked up rag weed woot woot everybody gotta start somewhere. Some of it will sit you on your ( * ) with a quickness.
