So, in theory, I’ll make some MaMaHaze F3’s hoping for future redemption of this rocky run with them. This male stinks (olfactorily speaking), I love his structure, and he didn’t even try to start flowering until I put him under 12/12. I’ll be completing the Trainwreck x MaMaHaze cross after all @BeagleZ ! @BCC I’ll be utilizing the pollen you sent to also create the Trainwreck Bx1… hoping it’s viable!
Edit: actually not sure I can pollinate Echo. She’s been flowering for 30 days, with an expected flower time of no more than 10 weeks (looks faster to me). I guess I could pollinate lowers, and harvest everything except those to allow for seed maturity… thoughts?
I will consider this the only vote in a mini poll!
Lowers gonna get hit hard with pollen, and left to ripen beyond harvest. Since they won’t be smokable buds, I’m going to turn them into seed factories.
Make that 2 votes in a mini poll!
For this, the two of you (@blowdout2269 and @HumblePie420 have first dibs on the MaMaHaze F3’s, should you choose to accept them.
@BeagleZ I’m super stoked this worked out, since the whole point of your gift was to bring the MaMaHaze to the Trainwreck. I’m grateful for your support with this pollen chuck! We’ve already discussed that you’ll have the first pack of the cross.
This generation will be my responsibility for sure, and I appreciate the shout out! I hadn’t thought about it that way yet
Since we have the privilege of knowing it’s lineage, I want to again honor the fact that the original cross was done by DarthCultivar, followed by @Guitarzan F2 reproduction.
Also, love to @misterbee , who put these in my hands in the first place!
The seed will finish no problem. When you harvest cut off the buds and leave as many fan leaves on the plant as you can, or chop off the top of the plant and leave the lowers to finish
If there are sill fresh stigmas and enough green plant matter remains on the plant, you can pollinate even at harvest time, and still get some seed sometimes…not always. I’ve even pollinated at harvest time and then put the plants under 24 hours light schedule and they will make seed as they reveg
Thanks for the information and confirmation @Upstate
What’s been on my mind recently is this: I have some Mango Haze F2’s inbound, so if I can ever get some legitimate Maui Wowie (I know Cherry Bomb is out there, but the reviews I’ve heard are meh), I’d like to run a project to create this cross the way I wish it were done originally:
Selecting MW that lean heavily into the mood enhancing sativa characteristics, and Mango Haze with a stimulating, cerebral quality.
10-13 weeks in flower (I think I can find some longer flowering phenos in the Mango Haze F2s)
Tropical terps to round everything out, and I think you’ve got something that smokes how the name Maui Mango Haze sounds!
I think these plants are beautiful, and they reek like an Afghan, but “Maui Mango Haze” that stays under 1 meter in height, stinks like shit, and doesn’t stretch?!
Seems like we need a reboot.
