Grand Daddy Purple S1 & Pre-1998 Bubba Kush S1

[PotChimp]

Here's the GDP S1s and the GDP f3 I put in with them:

One of the whorled S1s didn't hold that trait:

These two did:

The f3 didn't hold that trait either:

I'm going to try using this product I found in the health food store for treating the whorled plant I pick as the father:

The only other ingredient is pharmaceutical grade deionized water, so it should work.

The next generation of my GDP is on; my timer went out while it was on the dark period and I didn't realize it for a few days now. Most of the plants went into flower. I didn't check the GDP S1s I'm growing separately yet (mostly female with the one f3 unknown), but the tally so far is:

GDP less-haired (mother) x GDP less-haired (father) - 2 males, 2 females, 2 unknown
GDP more-haired (mother) x GDP less-haired (father) - 3 males, 3 females, 2 unknown
Original (?) GDP x GDP less-haired (father) - 4 males, 3 females, 1 unknown
GDP S1s - all 8 feminized

I'm going with a less-haired father and mother as the main part of this grow again (to keep something headed towards stability), but instead of adding one of the Original GDP (?) x GDP less-haired (father) plants as a mother I decided to use one of the S1s. I also put a female offspring of the GDP more-haired (mother) x GDP less-haired (father) in:

Over the next few grows I hope to see something I really like because the number of directions I'm taking this all in is getting complex. I'd like to narrow it down a bit.

Notes: Everything involved with the breeding of this is underway I put all four parent plants under my t5 setup this morning, and transplanted all the other GDP plants I have going on into 1 gallon pots. Here are both whorled S1s I'm going to try to breed together:

The one in back will be the mother:

I sprayed this one with CS for the first time just now:

Not likely it's going to hold a recessive trait like that, but it's worth a go.....

That is great Chimp. I look forward to seeing what they produce

 

[NorCaliwood]

You sure are getting pretty busy over here.. GL in the breeding...... Keepem Green

 

[Van Stank]

Good luck with the breeding PC, hoping to learn a lot from watching you!

Thanks everybody. I dusted the females in the GDP f4 grow with the top flower of the male, even though they don't have many hairs. That male is too tall for where I have it at, so I bent the top over. I'll get pics up soon, and as soon as I pull some plants for chop (next week), I'll be putting these GDP mother rejects into bloom. They should be green by then; they're a bit pale now. Still no signs of change on the S1 plants I'm breeding.

 

[MiOutdoorsman]

Chimpy I have a breeding question. How far into flower should the female be when you pollinate it? Hope all's well on danger island

 

[PotChimp]

I'd guess at about 3 weeks, when the flowers are decently formed.

 

[MiOutdoorsman]

Thanks. I'll be pollinating a JTR in few days with Purple urkle x JTR pollen. Hopefully I can get a few good beans

 

[PotChimp]

I put all the mother rejects from this GDP grow into bloom yesterday. Some of them are pretty small, but I need to get them out of my veg tent. I'll get a pic up soon.

Top of whorled GDP S1 plant; no signs that the colloidal silver solution is working yet:

The GDP f3 mother rejects:

They're starting to green back up, but I have to get them up higher towards the light.

 

[PotChimp]

Geez got more timer problems this one's my fault though. I put a piece of duct tape over the switch on my timers because I've thrown light cycles off they move so easy over the years the piece of tape I used on one dried up and fell off then when I put the 4" flex duct in the back of the locker I'm breeding the two whorled plants in I moved the timer and the switch went to constantly being on that's why I don't see any signs of sex yet. Bummer. Well at least the father plant got an early start being treated with CS. Gonna be another week or two.

 

[TheGreenYeti]

Shit luck Chimp. Atleast you caught it before it caused major issues

 

[PotChimp]

Every cell in my body is held together by $hit luck I'm used to it by now.

 

[PotChimp]

Whorled GDP S1 colloidal silver treated parent:

I'm going to take the CS treated plant out of the locker from now on to spray it because it looks like the GDP S1 mother caught some of the overspray:

I remember worrying a lot about that GDP pheno whenever I grew it before. The beginning always looks like male parts but this time I think it is.
I just broke the father from the GDP f3 (going for f4) grow in half to keep it off of the lights and it shed pollen all over. I'll get a pic up in a few days.

 

[Kidokush]

Dont know how i missed this.def sitting in on this.those genetics looks like something i wouldn't mind growing.wish we had that Freedom in South africa but soon i guess.Anyway im high and rambaling great growing.

GDP f3 father, GDP f3 (less-haired) mother, GDP S1 mother, and GDP (more-haired) mother:

GDP S1 mother:

GDP (more-haired) mother:

GDP mother rejects (the thin branched plant in the middle is a Vietnamese Mindfuck and the flowering plants in back are Apollo 13 f2 clones):

GDP (more-haired) mother reject:

In the event that the second whorled GDP S1 I'm breeding is a male (or both are; I still don't know), I have this other GDP S1 as a backup; it started reverting, then went back to the whorled condition when I put it into flower:

Notes - I just noticed these are probably done stretching so I can put the red spectrum bulbs in (that grow area is short). And two of the unidentified plants that were in the tally I did turned out to be male; I culled them a day ago.
