Hey OG, so things just keep getting better. So let’s start with the males.
I did some pollen collection tonight after skipping it yesterday and darned if they didn’t have something for us tonight. So, here is the pollen collection.
Yeah, I am impressed with them. The poor middle one is bending at the top against the ceiling of the tent, lol. Going to be some nice material for the hash bin.
I am, don’t think these will get there but I suppose anything is possible. Tonight’s grab was pretty cool to see. I may skip them and do it every other day. Still lot’s of sacks there waiting their turn.
There were only a couple brown pistils before I started to let the pollen get to them so yeah, it’s about a week. After a few days it is easy to tell if they were pollinated. You got a pic of what you pollinated?
Hmm. These are a few pictures I took a few days ago, probably 3 weeks after I applied pollen. Not the best pictures. I used a paint brush, dipped it in the pollen bag, and dabbed it on each bud. I probably hit every bud on the plant 2-3 times each, dipping the brush each time. I wasn’t sure how long it takes to change colors, but I’m thinking it didn’t take.
It’s hard to say exactly what’s going on after 3 weeks but it looks to me like there are some seeds there bud. When a pistil get’s pollinated you can see it go brown and shrivel, that’s the first sign the pollen took. When you look at the pics above as an example you can see the brown pistil coming out of the seed.
