It does and it doesnt. It was nice to have a good grow for sure, but being set back this long puts my supply chain into a deficit big time, because of a weird random chance... lolYeah times like this is like someone throwing a pile of shit at you and your options are mouth open or closed But coming off a killer grow hopefully takes some of the sting out if it.
Thats the spirit... im sure you will figure it out... usually a few drink and I can solve anything. At least it feels that way.These 6 plants better be fucking good lol.
Sorry for late reply I've seen them use as oil/disilate dispenser but yes plastic works good too just thought you'd like the glass version better for reuse.Good idea, where do you get the glass syringes? Couldnt you just use a regular 1ml syringe?

I'm sure you will come up with something
I'm not interested in doing a staggered perpetual grow really, I like doing it all in one shebang and drying it in the same space.Don't knot if it's an option but maybe rent a U-Haul trailer for drying or storage it it's worth it.
Man thats a big kick in the guts..normally youd get 60% or more f to m ratio..thats pretty unlucky mate.id b pretty pissed off..have you ever examined the seeds before selecting which ones.ive had more success selecting seeds that are more round in appearance for females .
Hope you can come up with something to save what you started..
Could you at least grow the girls out for seed outside? Like, for the hell of it? Just pollinate them with a dad and keep the seeds in case you want them? Or maybe try out two dads against each other branch by branch? Idk, seems like why not if they can survive outside long enough to give you seeds. Worst case it's a practice run for when you give a shit about seeds again.Yeah it is pretty unreal, I've never had this low a ratio in 20 years. But no it's done, this grow is over. I've at least got some clones hopefully to use soon.
At the risk of speaking for him, I believe he started with 24.Hey dirtbag , I missed the original plan , if you have the energy can you tell me what happened ?
From what I get you grew a bunch of seeds , then you took clones off all and flipped hoping to preserve the good plants in clone form and harvest the remaining selected females ?
How many seeds did you plant ?
Yeah, started with 23 plants from seed, took clones of each and then flipped. Ended up with 6 females, so if all the clones root I'll have 12 females there.Hey dirtbag , I missed the original plan , if you have the energy can you tell me what happened ?

Come to think of it this is really not the worst idea anyway if you keep track of who is who you will already have the seeds of the chosen lady...just only finding out with the clone later. Assuming those all make it and you had any interest in pursuing this line anyway.
Sorry I'm rambling I'm very baked. I hope this makes sense as a thought even if it's not right for your situation.
Maybe if I hit them with fungicide but I dont like doing that. By middle of October here everything is rotten. These wont be done until early November at this rate.
So 23 and you expected about a dozen females plants with luck on your side....At the risk of speaking for him, I believe he started with 24.
I was hoping for 10, 12 would have been nice and more a bonus. I had a couple spare plants sitting to fill space but not enough to make up these kinda numbers, the room is bare. Pretty rare to get 25% females from 2 seperate packs of 12 seeds. Just really shitty luck.So 24 and you expected about a dozen females plants with luck on your side....
Ok got it nowYeah, started with 23 plants from seed, took clones of each and then flipped. Ended up with 6 females, so if all the clones root I'll have 12 females there.
But with them being in 1 gal coco I need them at the same stage to use the automated watering system. So i cant exactly easily put those 12 clones in here with these, and again I dry in here so i cant be staggering the harvest by that much.
I'm starting over.
You bet. I still have the genetics from the 6 females, assuming they root.Ok got it now
But the clones were made for future keeper preservation ?
So my next question is... Out of a pack of 12 regs, how many females do you usually get? Is it usually 50% or close to it? Is this the worst you’ve ever done? Or do you usually start straight from clone?I was hoping for 10, 12 would have been nice and more a bonus.

I usually do run clones, especially in the last 10 years, but I will typically crack a few packs of seeds a year to mix things up. In 20 years I've probably sprouted a thousand seeds or more anyway. And it almost always falls in that 40-60% range.So my next question is... Out of a pack of 12 regs, how many females do you usually get? Is it usually 50% or close to it?
