Cannabis
Related: About this forumCannabis experiment going well...
Its legal to grow in Michigan.
Rain, ice storms, cold weather is delaying growing outside. So indoor cannabis grow is for fun.
Got a male plant
strain, Pure Michigan bred to auto. Have an auto female growing under it ready to catch all the pollen with enough to share with the others in the tent
a fully feminized auto Pure Michigan and a couple Northern Lights/ Double Grape feminized autos. All have been anointed with the pollen. This is an attempt to get autoflower seeds. I have done this before on a very small trial a few years ago. It worked well
I got about 60 seeds from one isolated branch that I tested on.
A plant most cannabis growers do not want to see..male flowering.

You can see the pollen load dropping

Applying the pollen to the female bud. Pollen does not stay viable for too long so I cut off the branch thats ready and use it like a paintbrush, stroking the pollen across the buds and letting it drift throughout the female plant.

The little female is peeking out.. after Im done with the male plant ..it will get cut down allowing the female to take over in the pot

Sharing this tent with my hot peppers (Big Thai, Jalapeño, Habanero) and sweet potato slips. Maybe Ill get hot peppers that give a little different kind of kick
🤣😂

Here is an almost ready to be harvested female from my previous attempt at seeding. I know it works just as with all growing
we will see.

(102,903 posts)All the males, the females with do it themselves, here's proof:

Took this after a week of pulling all the makes from 7 acres only to come out every day and find more males throwing pollen around! And when I went out to inspect, this is what I found. A clearly marked female plant had grown her own pollen pods right over the buds.
Tellin' ya... the girls get it done!

(13,053 posts)Kinda common in the earlier days of autoflower. They can get viable seeds. I kinda think that little plant under the male is a hermie seed. It was very little
I mean very little. Had it in my found seed collection.
I forgot how messy males are
damn pollen everywhere
.thinking to rename the tent to
The Epstein tent.
No joke about the pollen spread, that stuff gates everywhere. I like the new name for the tent!
The hermi buds were all small, the good stuff was amazing, and it wasn't even marijuana. That was from them hemp crop, some high end CBD stuff, the turpenes were too much for the deer. All I can say about that adventure is... glad I only did that once. It was so much work.

You're just growing those plants for the sheer beauty!
