I love the way they looks those ones in the middle
Nice job mate!

Haha yup they sure do look like tomatoes⌠now everyone can grow tomatoes on their balcony
I recently raised the light (yesterday evening)âŚhoping thatâll speed things up.
Change the name to tappys wild tamataâs
hey Day explain that to me⌠what you thinking will be missed by just the girls doing it
Iâm just going to flow all of them and erâbuddy gets tippzyâŚI havenât been instructes
Youâll be missing the entire male half of the plants genome.
Besides the ability to reproduceâŚwhat exactly does the male bring that the female dosenât have âŚ???
added question marks so its a known questionâŚ
open it up discuss it⌠whatâŚ
we choose bud structure⌠but we choose it to be like the female we wantâŚ
we pick up on terps⌠yeah we want them (on the female) so we pick a female that has the terps we wantâŚ
we like big ol phat buds⌠hell we pick the bitch thats the meanest biggest in the grow now shes your male,
we mate em for power for the juice⌠power heifer x power heiferâŚ
what does the male bring that the female dosenât possess???
Where did all these bad-ass female plants come from? At some point, somebody bred a male and female, and got a bad ass plant. Then maybe they did that a few more times, and produced the meanest bitch in the grow.
IMO, breeding fems, you take a hit on hybrid vigor, and I donât trust them not to hermie. Youâve got to mutate the genetics to get them to self-pollinate, and you canât avoid passing that mutation into the seeds you made.
A lot of breeders sell feminized seeds, but I doubt they get them from breeding two fems. They get them by traditional breeding methods. Cross-breeding males and females, making selections, and back-crossing until they get the plant they want, then they reverse it, and start selling seeds.
I just donât see how you could have a legitimate breeding program using only fems. Of course, I could be full of shit too.
fuck I mean closet growingâŚand still the question is still being askedâŚ
what does the male bring to the table that the female doesnât posses
I got a an alley of weed that looks like that herbâŚ
what ever happened to that duckfoot weed.??? this looks to hide much betterâŚhave fun with her⌠hope sheâs danky dank.
Well ,that is totally up to what you are looking to achieve with a cross.
Now days, there are more cannabis cultivars or strains that sand in the desert,so itâs easy to get your ideal plant by just popping seeds, but back in the day the only way to do a hybrid was working two different plants ,in example Indica and Sativa ,to get the best of both, or an equilibrium, thereâs no Faster way to shorter the flora of a sativa unless you crossed it with an indica (if that is the aim of your breeding program)and keep working that until you set your standards.
Now with the fem. procedures is quite easy to just chuck everything by itself and see if something matches what you want to accomplish. but still, a genetic recombination still in place,so you are developing a serious breeding project you will have to keep crossing and BX until you eventually get it .just as in a regular cross.
The question what a male can bring?,well if you have your ideal plan that doesnât need a bit of work, the answer is easy, nothing.
You donât even have to bother doing fem seeds, just take some cuts and job done.
But to fully develop a line ,working with males is a need.
On the other hand the question I find more accurate is âhow do I know what male shall I use?â Unfortunately there is not easy way either , we have been focused on a female selection for so long that we havenât done much research about males.
The way I see just tell me the opposite, most of only fem seeds catalogue seeds banks creates their lines but just crossing two females , and most of the time is using a top known cut crossed with another top known cut, so the result must be Top notch FireâŚ
Yeah sounds lame, but it is what happens
Males bring nothing to cropped female plants. You can breed without males if your goal is to crop females. The Y chromosome isnât in the plants you crop, therefore it doesnât contribute to their phenotype. Non-mendelian organelle inheritance is through the mother cell line, not the male. You can make hybrids with female only lines the same as regular seed. Itâs about your breeding scheme, not if you are using reversed females vs true males. You can make uniformly non-intersexed plants as female lines in the same way you can (or cannot) do so in regular sexed seed. Feminization procedures do not mutate the genetic code in an heritable way; they just alter the expression of the genes already present. The professional breeding program I work in uses exclusively female lines with recurrent phenotypic selection.
I didnt read this topic for a while it seems! Did you ever get that auto pollen?
Not yet but will be on it soon
I got some blueberry auto pollen left from my males if you want. Shoot me a message if you like
