My own creation Stinky MacRiddle

Only the individual pistols (hairs) that have been touched by viable pollen will produce seed. In nature it is usually wind and pollinators that spread it around to the female plants.

I stays on the bud for a while though. Sometimes when I pollinate a bud with only 8-10 pistils, it makes 30-40 seeds.

Yeah I can see that happening. So as the plant makes new pistols the pollen residue either on the plant itself or in your grow space gets moved around in the air so the new growth gets pollinated too with the lingering pollen.

Stays on the right branch real good even with the fans.

Both are the same height, same smell, and same structure. Short and beefy, they look to be well suited for indoor grows. A perfect match for a Colombian stud. I wish the stinky terps were passed on. Another month to go, it might still come through. Stay tuned for Stinky Colombian - coming soon to your favorite weed site.

Fed 2tsp bloom no grow.

 

[growsince79]

Buds are smelling like lemon pledge no skunk. Still collecting pollen. Froze 2 packs so far.

Day 39f. Watered 2tsp bloom.

Is that the one that’s pollinated? You’re only making seeds right? What’s the story behind....wait nevermind I’ll read the rest of the thread lol. I won’t be that guy hahaha.

Only the bud on the right should have seeds. The stud was a landrace Colombian. The seeds will likely have spectacular vigor like my last cross.

That’s awesome. Wait a sec... so you’re getting seeds from only one bud, then the other flowers will be clean and free to smoke?

yes

 

[Dothraki]

yes

You just blew my mind. I had no idea you could do that. So...here’s an odd question.. does one single piece of pollen create one seed?

Plants are like aliens

I have done this many times. Its easy you just isolate your pollen on only one part of the plant.

How long do you let the pollen dry before freezing?

 

[growsince79]

Idk. I just collect it for a few days. I guess it's drying while being collected. When I have enough, I put in in a little pouch made from glossy paper and freeze in a jar of uncooked rice. It worked after 1.5years and failed after 2 years. I think the fail might be from taking the jar out and refreezing to many times.

Ya from what I here moisture is the worst thing for it so a change in humidity when popping it open could be the cause. Well I’ll be collecting and freezing tonight then.

The first time I tried I put all the pollen in one pack so it was in and out. That was a mistake. Now I'm making several smaller packs.

That’s how I pictured it in my mind honestly. Several small containers (the same kind seeds come in) and put a little pollen in each. Now are you able to use the pollen immediately after taking out of the freezer?

Yeah I take it out and put it on a dish, then use a little paint brush to apply 10min later.
