I used sts. I also sprayed with the absolute least frequency I thought would get me balls. I’ve made plenty of seeds from real males and a little pollen goes a long way. I thought it would bet the same with fem reversals. Not so much the case. not with the plants I was reversing anyway.

Well one of the creme de la chems appears to randomly be dying this morning, thought it was just thirsty so I watered everything last night and that plant doesn’t look good 🤷 good thing I got 3 for the project but pretty sure I’m down and out one of em

I bet it was the sts. Thats the same way my two died. Fine one day, looking just like that the next morning. The last time it happened I was hitting 2 plants and the other one grew and reversed just fine, so I assumed it got on the coco. But maybe some plants just cant handle the stuff well. Did they happen to get an sts treatment yesterday?

Last treatment was over a week ago and the plant started looking like that before I watered yesterday, didn’t look as sad and just had droopy leaves, picked up the pot and seemed like it was thirsty so I watered everything and it just got worse 🤷 it’s fine though it was the smallest and least vigorous of the 3. Threw it in complete darkness for the night hoping that giving it a sleep cycle might give it a chance to bounce back, doesn’t appear to have made a difference, I’ll leave it there for a couple days to see if it wants to live or die

Ya I was putting towels over my soil until they were dry then I’d pull the towels, kinda wonder if I should trash the soil and grow bags at the end on those 3 plants too, I’ve got over 1000 gallons of soil so taking the loss on 10 as a failsafe is better than contaminating the rest right?

In regards to people following and such and you know hands out at the end, do the project for yourself first off cause then you dont feel obligated that your doing it for others, i just say that as i had a goal to give out seeds once a week for a year which both myself and reiko did and helped changed this site i believe into how giving it is now vs prior to when we both started that. I took a step back afterwards as in my mind i know i could do better at what i was giving out in regards to better plants and wanted to work on that aspect but that sense of obligation forced the hand per say at the time to give out seeds of plants that could of been better, and saying that probably less that 1/10th of what ive given out has maybe been played with which im perfectly fine with the fact of just sharing and contributing that vibe was my goal and achieved.
All im trying to say is just do the project for yourself and for the learning of it, the bonus is that ability to share it at the end if you get there.
Its kinda how they got to this point, crossing of light lime colored Darkdevils with the light colored C99’s and subsequent generations.

I’ve just been filling grow bags and throwing em in any empty spaces in my vehicles when I’m running loads, it def adds up over the trips. I’ve got most of whats just laying around not in use over to the new spot and most of whats left is still on my last two current grows

Leaving myself 2 months really eases that stress for sure, not so rushed to get out and can just focus on doing a load a day when I’m not working

Well, spent the day doing defoliations in that room, things were getting to thick and figured if pollen was gonna be flying soon I’d want it to get to the buds much easier, this will prob help my waterings too being able to see the soil again
The one plant is def dead/dying. My question with it is since pollen sacks are actually formed already, would it be like a rose kept in water and continue to open up? Or would it be possible to let it hang dry and crumble it up in front of my fan and still accomplish the mission? Or is it just dead in the water and trash at this point?

How do you even water those way in the back lol! That is a good question. Wanna see what the answers are gonna be

I did have one die on me as well that was sprayed with sts. Folded over itself overnight. I also remember it feeling light like it should be watered but the other plant I sprayed was just as light and didn’t fold over. Weird. Maybe too much spray over time dripping down the main stalk and getting to the taproot.

That’s what I suspect and why I’m just trashing the whole grow bag at the end, if it did make it into my soil I don’t want it in the rest
