I am looking forward to see how it plays out.

Looking wonderful as always, CD. I too thought about getting a moisture meter and drying to the optimum % so I can have a more precise cure.
Great minds think alike and all that.
Well done on the pollen, bud. You'll have some super tasty strains to grow!
I hope you and the family are well, my friend

Thanks @burdok420, I’m glad you also had that thought about the moisture, Just seems like it would be beneficial to do it that way. I’m sure someone around here has probably done it. I’m gonna grab one and do it to see,
and yes we have pollen. Now it’s just timing and plucking then storing. I think I’ll cut the pollen with flour for storage. Still didn’t flip the 8 out of veg yet. I’m thinking I’ll wait until I’ve chopped the reversals and stored the pollen. If all works out timing wise I’ll be able to flip them within a couple weeks harvest the flower room and move them into that room and dry in the tent.
Thanks for stopping in brother, not much longer on the mini-tent now eh!

Hola! I've never successfully collected pollen but you may want to reconsider the flour. I read it may make viability an issue if over cut. Seems rice grains is the best for storage but again all second hand knowledge and I'm sure people use flour successfully just something to consider.

Thanks for the tip MG! I’ll look into it, I just remember reading it somewhere. It could have been @Pennywise or @Chris Scorpio. can’t remember where. I’ll definitely look into it further though. From what I remember it was for stretching the pollen further and storage.
Flour is for cutting the pollen to make it go farther.

I really didn’t measure the flour, just remember you only need 1 grain of pollen to pollinate a flower. If I had to guess I’d say 50/50.

Good point, Thanks PW.
I am going to have to try this!

I'm glad I've been along for the ride. You've opened my eyes to a couple of things. I enjoy your curious thought processes. I feel the same way about growing. Constantly trying to think of something different, or a different way of doing an established "method".
Not much longer, bud! Day 52 today, I believe. Same for your girls, no?

Awe shucks!! lmao. I’m glad you’ve been following along buddy. I’m ecstatic that you are enjoying and got the cogs turning to experiment on things. That’s what these places are all about!
You are we flipped the same day, what are you thinking you got left? I haven’t checked closely yet, I’m assuming 2-3 weeks. I’ll start looking at trichs here and monitoring closely over the next week or so.

Not an update,
Just some updated bud shots
and
Some open pollen sacs from the reversed Sapphire OG with the specs in place.

I'm thinking that, too. I think the 11th of August is day 65, which is the earliest ready date on the website. I want a lot of the sativa effect so I'm considering chopping on the early side, but all depending on trich colour.
Plants are looking fat, my man
Great photos CD!

These breeders/seed banks need to get with you to get some photos for their main page! Awesome shots! I can see these photos on the pages when I go to buy some seeds.

Hey everyone. Sorry to barge in. I’m at 52 days in flower and almost ready for harvest. Looked in the tent this morning and I think I have some issues. Was hoping I could get your help 
Again sorry to post here, hope you can help.
Help Please, Day 52 In Flower: Mold?
Hey everyone. I think I may have a problem with one of my plants. Went and looked at them this morning and noticed one of them with some white stuff on the leaves and maybe seeds? I have had a lot of problems throughout this grow with this one plant. Just worried as I am almost ready to harvest...
