Question about using fem pollen… when using it on a different strain mother will the result be a fem cross of both strains or reg cross? Are there any other tidbits I should know before I use it?

It will be a fem F1.

You will get a cross of the female you pick to pollenate and Orangegasm. They will be female seeds. A bit goes quite a way, I use a pipe cleaner to just touch the pollen and then rub it on the white hairs. I usually do one branch and end up with 50 -100 seeds. I let them go at least 5 weeks after pollenation. After that trim and dry as usual and pick out the seeds as you smoke the buds.

Have u just been making fems off of one specific orangegasm fem u selected from a pack? How orangey is it? Is it everything I ever dreamed!? I assume it’s straight orangegasm with no other genetics mixed in…or have u tweaked it… sorry I have tons of questions about this. I love citrusy stuff

Hey stank:
I got a pack of Orangegasm this spring. I sprouted and grew one in light dep green house. Plant grew fast and large. The orange citrus is very strong and it is my favorite smoke this year. I took two cuttings before going to 12/12. Reversed one using STS. I will pollenate the unreversed female in a few days when she is ready (I like them about 3 weeks into flower). Let them go at least 5 weeks. I use a pipe cleaner to in pollen then touch the buds, repeat, repeat… I cut off the end of pipe cleaner when it gets sticky and keep going.

You did this with just 1 seed from the pack? Talk about a being economical!
Would you be interested in a trade when the fems are ready? I have some things you might like. I honestly only want 2 or 3 seeds and I’ll keep it going like you are.
I hate sounding ungrateful because believe me I am super thankful for the pollen. I’ve been interested in orangegasm but regretfully didn’t pull the trigger and can’t find them now. Thank u either way…u are the dopest of the dope!

Thanks for the kind words! I think I will make more seeds that usual this time so I can give some away. I love this strain. I was thinking when I was replying last time that I would save your address and send a few seeds so you could have a 100%. I tell people if they want more fem seeds all they have to do is send me one and I will return many. I will also keep some for myself. The hardest part of the reversal is the collecting of the pollen and that only take about 15 minutes per day. I am retired and I have the time, now I have the skills.

Well I guess it’s not discontinued so I can just wait it out and buy em when they come available so no biggie there.
It’s funny if you look at my grow log the very first post I show the 1st seeds I bought which was Citrus Sap by Crockett family farms (gg#4 x tangie) a sativa dominant strain I tried before and loved. Ever since I wanted citrusy strains. Didn’t run em yet tho.
I do have 2 tangies rn but they’re seedlings.
Oh yeah btw is reversing easy? I read up on it a little already. U seem to have it figured out pretty well
Pollen hit yesterday! Thank you!
I also love my citrus!

I just found some packs at Chi Town. I have never done business with them, so I can’t give them a rating.
Reversing is not hard mostly takes time. I have used both STS and CS methods. I prefer the STS as there is less spaying (only every 3 days for me) while CS is every day. I have reversed about 12 plants so far and only had two that did not produce an abundance of pollen. Oh yes, you have to have space for a small pollen flowering room.

I totally didn’t see your last post before posting mine it seems u answered before I even asked!
Lol I would touch u anywhere to get that O-gasm
Chi town is out of stock. It doesn’t show until you click further. They were on sale for 72 bucks apparently.
I use white boards in my grow area to keep track of all the info that I need, then I take pictures before I erase them. I will make a note to send you some of the Orangegasm, should be about 7 weeks or so, it will be my Christmas present to you, LOL!

Actually is cheaper on most the other sites on the list (the list of irie vendors on their site)
Ooh dang, hope I did not miss out on some of this pollen heh. Been looking for photo fem pollen in the trading thread for a while now. Let me know if some is still available, would be greatly appreciated. More than willing to trade a few crosses I have made or some other seeds, for some fem pollen/pollens

Wow, sorry to hear about the hermie problem. No the Lemon Jeffery did not have any nanners, I really liked the aroma while growing but like the Orangegasm better for smoking. Both are fine tho.
