I'm planning on crossing breeding Northern Lights #5 with a high CBD strain (Elixir), but I've never raised seeds before.
I understand that after I pollinate the female plant that seed production will become the priority for the plant and that I may not get as much flower production out of this plant. However, I'm wondering if I am able to isolate the flowers I pollinate how I should expect the non-pollinated flowers to be affected (e.g., will they likely have greatly reduced potency and bud size or will they still be fairly productive?). I'm hoping I can produce the seeds I want for future use from fertilizing two or three flowers, but I'm also hoping I'll still get some decent flower production from the rest of the plant.
It would be helpful to know if just pollinating a few flowers is going to greatly reduce the potency and/or the bud production of the rest of the plant. If anyone could provide insight on what I should expect to see in terms of bud production from plants that have a few flowers pollinated, it would be appreciated.
