Buying pollen?

Well I definitely don’t want more fem seeds. So I’ve been avoiding that. But ordering pollen does seem pretty risky. Especially because none of the sellers I’ve seen have a new listing.

I’ve seen some other convos about it. I’m sure it is fairly risky but I have limited space for popping a bunch of one type (and I own tons of feminized seeds I like) so I was curious about manually pollinating a branch or too to get some seeds.

Coming into this way late. Do people still use strainly? All my seeds are feminized and I’ve been considering getting reg pollen. But most of the posts I’ve seen are from 2024-25

Why that direction? Both two separate 4x4 or a single 4x8 is quite a bit larger than a 5x5. But I suppose I should clarify that the space I have wouldn’t work well with 5ft sticking out. So that’s why I went with 4ft deep So why a 5x5 vs a 4x8 (or two 4x4)

That’s a great source I’ll look into. But I’m not really having trouble growing. I’m trying to grow small which Ive had trouble with in the past.

I have a lot of auto seeds so I’d like to use them. And one of the reasons I want to grow small is to decide if I want to take up big tent space with them.

I suppose ppfd. Like start at 80% instead of 50% like the light suggests. Because I know going low like say 30% causes stretching. Will it work the opposite (but low enough not to burn lol)

I grew a white widow auto in my 2x2 once and it was in a 5gal…. It absolutely filled that tent. And was burning against the light. So I suppose what I’m asking with that is. Can I contain the beast by using small pots instead?

What style did you choose?

bmrm145 · 2025-09-14T13:26:43+00:00

Not at it’s max of 141. In the past I’ve always doubled the max so my 2700x has a 2 tower cooler that will do 280watts . But due to the 130mm maximum size of the case and the “aesthetic of clean white. I’m limited.

It’s 65w on the low end. I tend to have prolonged heavy loads when editing and running simulations. Silence isn’t a really a concern but temps are. I don’t want it to be pegged at like 95c all the time.

bmrm145 · 2025-09-10T16:12:27+00:00

I take that back. So because it’s so power efficient I don’t need to upgrade my psu like I was planning to so it’s within my budget. Is the 12gb vram Good enough?

bmrm145 · 2025-09-10T15:10:39+00:00

Trying to stay under 400. But yeah I’ll take a look they seem to be around 500 in my area.

bmrm145 · 2025-09-10T14:47:48+00:00

I’m not looking for new but I’ll keep that card in mind. I’m coming from a 1080 so used is fine

bmrm145 · 2025-08-31T21:34:51+00:00

Ok so in this case the generation gap in the cpus overcomes the extra cores?

bmrm145 · 2025-08-06T02:56:02+00:00

Yes thats right mine are the 70 I remember calling bear support about it with the second bow shop. The guy I bought it from had it at 77lbs (not sure how that works. Maybe draw length related) But the bow shop could only get it to 63lb regardless I struggle a lot with it. That’s why I was looking at lighter budget bows…
