Hey @ReikoX. What are you expecting to happen from a 1/2 Auto? How does that work?
Stay safe, well and lifted!

Plant twice as many, keep the autoflowrring ones. Iāll likely make seeds with the autoflowrring ones at some point.

@ReikoX mate,
How many more steps before you get to either full auto Juanita , or is this to just shorten the flowering time of your Juanita or both .?
Always a good read - this thread - keep up the good work bro ā¦
Happy growing ,

Next generation, 25% will be autoflowering. If I cross the autoflowering ones, they should be 100% autoflowering at that point.

@ReikoX what method are you using to collect the pollen?

This time, because I was dealing with larger plants, I cut off the branches and threw them in my trim bin. I chopped up each plant up and moved it around so the pollen fell under the screen. Then I collected it all on a piece of parchment paper to dry for a couple of days. There is still a ton of pollen in my flower room. Thatās going to take a bit of cleanup after.
Normally, when dealing with smaller plants, I segregate the males and manually pluck the flowers with a pair of tweesers and a piece of parchment underneath. Sometimes I even cut a slit in piece of parchment paper and slide it over the stem to cover the soil.
Regardless, I always sift my pollen to get out the plant matter, dry it for a few days, then vacuum seal it in a micro centrifugal tube with some desiccant, and finally store it in the freezer.

Do you or @Sebring ever add flower to the pollen (cut the pollen) to make it go further? I have seen some posts and videos about using flour that has been heated in the oven, cooled and added to the pollen @ 3/1 ratio.

Juanita la Lagrimosa x Lowryder2 plants are at day 30 of flowering. These are going to give me plenty of seeds to move this project forward.
The Grapey Walter Kush are about 58 days from germination. These are only lightly seeded, these will likely be distributed to fellow overgrowers.
