When using stored pollen, other than the obvious eventual production (or not) of seeds, how can one tell early whether or not the pollen was viable?
What are the signs of a knocked-up seed-mama and generally how soon after the pollination attempt will they appear?
Within 48hrs of being successfully pollinated, the pistils should shrivel up and turn orange and then start receding into the bracht’s/calyx’s.
Thanks. Thats what I was expecting.
Generally speaking, how long do you let the mamas develop flowers before you apply?
I stored the pollen in centrifuge containers themselves stored in an airtight container with desiccants in the freezer for about 8-months.
I hit those girls twice since December 23rd about a week apart. Seems like if it was going to work, it would have.
You need to know how are flowering the females for this.But to know how many time the female have before engaging senescence. Needless to say that it almost change with each strain.
In doubt the “ping pong balls” stage is generally safe, the stage of your beautiful plants minus a good week.
It’s good to show how things can go wrong too, this one stayed over a month dusted by the fresh pollen of the male aside. Without much success. This specific pairing is complicated to make, it’s rare but problems of compatibility exist between the tubes of the pollen and the pistils/ovula system of the females. On this pairing it’s like crossing an elephant with a guinea pig ^^
This one was heavily pollinated by a freezed pollen, maximized. With stored pollen it’s less reactive in general with very “goo-ish” females.
But i admit, two shots over a month now … maybe it’s time to hunt pollen in OG in emergency ^^
Hello guys, excuse me. I want to ask some things, if allows me.
I want to make crosses in my cultivar, but I don’t know how to grow male cannabis plants, when separate its females, when collect pollen, does anyone have material for this? ;3.
Other question, can i take these with indirect light? Thinking about space on my home, but this space just goes 1hour of direct light a day, the others 11hours is indirect. I’m living in the city with 12 hours light sun and 12 darkness. Sorry if this post doesn’t take theses questions, and sorry my english i m beginner
Mano geralmente os sacos de polem quando estão maduros eles já abrem naturalmente, claro que alguns vão maturar antes dos outros
E depois que tu descobriu que Ă© um macho nĂŁo precisa de muita coisa nĂŁo, sĂł deixa ele numa luz pra manter o foto perĂodo e boa, a parada Ă© deixar ele longe pra nĂŁo polinizar sozinho
