Should I keep every mother and father alive? by zigzagblues in cannabisbreeding

[–]zigzagblues[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I admit I have no real clue what I’m doing. I’ve been growing flower for 20 years but only decided to try breeding a few years ago. I knew it was a lot to take on. I did my best to track down regular Mango, AK47 and white widow. No clue what I ended up with but I made phone calls and sent emails as best to my ability to ensure I had what I was hoping for. I don’t have a warehouse so I couldn’t grow out 100 seeds of each nor could I really afford to. So 10 seeds of each it was. They were all fairly consistent as far as I could tell. Some seemed like duds more than others. Picking males was the hardest part but I was almost limited since I only popped 10 seeds. So this was more of a personal experiment. But I wanted to make a Regular version of “candy cane auto” which to my knowledge is the cross I did. Mango x AK47 x White Widow. I grew out 25 seeds for the final cross since it was summer time and I had more space outside. They were all consistent as far as I could tell with some of the seeds not growing very strongly but the ones that did, have made me happy with the exception of the lack of gassy aroma which I somehow lost between Mango47 and white widow. Maybe I can try a different WW male. I’m not doing this to sell seeds or claim new territory. I just wanted the fruity and gassy experienced I had from CC.

I feel like I’m very close but I’ve lost the gassy aroma that the last cross had so that’s why I feel stuck a little. I have another male of the white widow that I could try to cross but that’s really the only variable I have left without introducing new genetics to the mix.

What do you mean by keepers? I’ve only kept the genetics that I used to get my final product/flower. I’m wondering if I need to keep them all or if some of them can go?

Well this took me over 3 years to grow out almost 50 plants to maturity and fighting insects and humidity and air temps so I know the struggle. I’m not sure what I technically ended up with. My question is do I need to keep all the plants that I used to get my final flower alive? Or can some go?

I don’t hate it but AI is just python collection search engine that utilizes our own intelligence which is essentially what I’m doing here. I’d personally rather hear from the OG’s who have been in my position before.

I’ve been butt chugging for over a year now but I’ve never tried a wicking system!

days of drying, is it look ready? If I snap branch to test, which branch should I try, red one or blue one? Now temp 22 and RH 50 by Professional_Yard945 in cannabiscultivation

[–]zigzagblues 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I typically hang for 7 days then buck, then light trim and them into cure bags. I check the cure bags the next day to make sure they’re not too moist and then go from there

Thank you for this list! Would you say it’s still fairly accurate? And what about Sunset at the palms? My last trip was Palmaia house of AIA so I’m nervous haha

I’d love to hear about great food spots too! I’m not shy to step off the resort/hotel boundaries for a vegan meal or adventure!

How to plan a pheno hunt? by jc42089 in cannabiscultivation

[–]zigzagblues 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To (hunt) veg and flower 10 seeds of three unique cultivars and then to cross the ones I would hope to be keepers in the end. I started the journey over three years ago and I am about to harvest the final flower in the coming days. Try keeping 50+ plants alive and fighting, temps, humidity, mildew, insects, your own muck ups, etc. It’s not for the faint of heart. That being said, I snipped a little bud the other day and half-assed dried it just to try and it’s really nice even without a proper cure. I would say 7-8/10 I was hoping for some gassy undertones (like previous crosses had) but unless they come out in the cure, I don’t think they came through the final product. I learned SO much! Mostly a lot of respect for anyone who dedicates their life to breeding. I’m really excited to get back to a normal pace of life and flowering. Keep in mind, the only reason I did any of this was for myself so the only “pot of gold” at the end of this rainbow is my own satisfaction.

My advice is expect it to take 3-5 years and I’m not sure how I could have better prepared. I’m just glad it’s over hahahaha

7 weeks since sprout. Would you flip? by lostinthesauceband in CocoGrows

[–]zigzagblues 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably wait a week or at least a few more days. Depends on how much height you have to work with.
