I am going to be terminating my Wonder Woman male plant tomorrow. Services at 10 am. Tea and brownies will be served.
As you may or may not know I am actively working at breeding seeds to become independent of the seed banks. If I were more experienced I would relocate the male (if I had room to do so and it wasn't in a ceramic 15 gallon pot) far away from my female plants. This is what I decided to do and why. The male is, for me, pretty darn big at almost 8ft tall. And he is producing a LOT of pollen sacks and sites for more to start so he's going to be fully loaded and dangerous. I am not wanting accidental pollinations. I want to be able to harvest seeds and accurately list the genetic history of the seed and it's strain. So the big Wonder Boy has to go. I made two clones from this plant about 6 weeks ago that are doing extremely well. My plan is to relocate the two clones to what I hope will be a safe place (a field 3 miles away) at a friend's property where I can check them regularly. I will collect pollen from these two male clones and brush it onto four different plants to create some seeds. The Wonder Woman strain, if you can ever get a female, is quite a good one. If I ever get a female it's definitely a strain I will be trying to make some feminized seeds with to store away.
Anyone else having any luck make seeds either regular or feminized?
