You really know your strains, Penny! Once I get my seed making going I am I hoping people online might want to do some horse-trading. It really does make sense as opposed to buying.

I'm in for trading!

 

[The Bard]

It does make sense because if I get a killer strain from what I read I should be able to get 100's of seeds from one plant so I would have way more than I could ever grow so why not exchange to get more diversity. We could all vastly expand and increase our seed quality and diversity.

I was thinking along the same lines! Of course, need some pollen to actually show up!

 

[Pennywise]

Hopefully this winter we can get some seeds going.

Yes, that is also the crimp in my plans, lol.

I have my STS from Old Salt and my NL Sensi seed is in the soil so hopefully, I should have some in the not too distant future. I am a little concerned because she still hasn't popped her head up yet.

 

[Pennywise]

Give her time I have faith! Lol

Lol... She is a little late but I haven't given up on her. Hate it when the ladies are late, lol.

I got my STS from Salt as well. Not sure if you saw it, but I linked an interesting article about STS on Salt's seed-making thread. Between it and the instructions in Penny's signature, got some good advice. I changed my technique up a bit as a result. No pollen though... yet.

Are you going to self-cross the NL, or cross it with something else?

I was thinking that there are enough well-known Cdn growers here on 420 that we could do a bit of a purchasing co-op if there is enough interest of course.

Naw… I never wanted kids either. LOL.

I wonder what technique you are using? Meaning when and how often and for how long are you spraying?

I am planning on making fem NL seeds from my Sensi seeds and then maybe cross that with my WW or maybe some straight WW seeds too because the one plant I grew of that was my best. Basically, I will make seeds of my best strains and do some crossing too.

Yes, it would be great to get a little co-op going. And with stealth mailing, it could be worldwide!!

Be careful how you word things, selling, buying and trading seeds is a no no.

Thanks for the heads up Penny; I had no idea. I can see selling and buying a no no but i am surpised trading is too. Anyone following along please disregard the last few pages!!!

LOL on stealth worldwide....

On the STS application, I had been using a paint-brush, and trying to catch the plants before they threw pistils. I had been applying every day, or every other day, depending on my schedule.

The changes I made were to reduce the frequency to at most every three days, and sometimes every fourth day. I now use a spray bottle for better, more even coverage (I cover up the branches I want to avoid, as well as the soil itself, until the leaves dry). I also added a diluted drop of castile soap to prevent the "sheeting off" of the liquid, so that it sticks better. Most important, I think, is that I have continued applying even with pistils, directly on the pistils. A tip from @Mr. Krip. I may have missed the window on this current plant - an auto, so I couldn't time the pistils/flip exactly. But I will keep trying.

A NL x WW sounds like a powerful combo. Good luck with it!

I’ve been spanked a couple times for talking about shipping and sending seeds.

From what I have read I think you are better off spraying and Penny suggests every 3 days so I think you are on the right track. Interesting about spraying pistils. Good luck. I am hoping you have it all figured out before I try, lol.

The site is so great I don't want to get spanked so I will abide.

There’s a good tutorial in my signature.

I have read it and will definitely revisit it before I try myself.

I think it would be a good strain but what I really like is I could call it White Lights or Northern Widow!!!

Great White North! A tribute to home.
