First Grow Ever!

There's more work than I think you realize, Joe. :) I wish you could just spritz the plant and be done... But you actually have to turn a portion of the plant male and then pollinate some of the girl parts with its self. It's a whole process. :)

Yes ma'am I'm sure you're right, but like everything with growing, it will be well worth it if done properly.
 
Drive by.. Pollen can be scary stuff. Just my 2 cents, if you have any male flowers open in your tent, chances are you got seeds in everything. I'd imagine you have a fan blowing on the plants so... But if you want to try making seeds and you have a good sperm donor. You can take him out of your tent before he has his way with your virgins, you can put it outside, or anywhere away from your crop, friends, closets. Flowers will open even with minimal light. Even alittle CFL light works with a 12/12 cycle. Collect some pollen and put it in a small jar place him in a plastic bag and shit can him fast with as little movement as possible. Rouge pollen lasts ALONG time. Years...Take a shower. Take your mother out somewhere without wind, seeds need about 3 weeks to ripen so time it with your harvest. Pick out acouple small buds on the bottom, so pollen won't drift down to other buds and use a Q-Tip and touch some to her. I cover mine with a white paper envelope stapled kin of tight, just to keep the pollen contained. After 3 days, remove the envelope and use a small mister bottle with water and spray that entire branch till wet. This will 'deactivate' the pollen so you don't hit anything else. Make sure you label the branches you pollenate. I'm not sure if my 2 cents is about the topic,,, but if you do this, seeds, GL and Keepem Green

Thanks. That does sound like a lot of work. I'm sure I can pull it off. I might just have to only grow one plant at a time when I do this just in case I screw it up until I get a better hand at it. If I lose 1 entire plant they will still be the seeds I want tho right? An auto fem will create and auto fem and not a Hermie correct?

I just ordered gg4 auto from gyo. It's from fast buds. I got a 10 pack of auto fem. I think k I should be able to not have to buy them seeds ever again. Thats the plan anyway. And the freebie is Chemdog 4 photo fem. I definitely want seeds from her. I will only have 1 of her so I'm gonna play with the gg4 first before I try her.
