Pollination through to Harvest (SKUNKBUBBLE)

[DownOver]

Hi everyone,

Had been reading through journals, and thought, a "pollination through to harvest" may be an interesting topic.

Parentage:

WidowSkunk

Bubblegum

Seeds from SeriousSeeds.

I am going to baptise this strain:

SKUNKBUBBLE

Starting at the 7th day after pollination with WidowSkunk pollen and a Bubblegum female. Pollination took place via 2 methods.

"Just prior to opening" whereby the pollen is taken just prior to open flower stage,

and,

"fully opened flower" the natural collection from an open male flower and spreading dust like pollen into the pistils.

Along the branch chosen for pollination, you can see that there is seed development all across the buding sites. The care you must take when embarking on pollination is paramount unless seed production is the desired outcome.

If you ever left a male inside at the open flower stage, I can only imagine the nightmare of unwanted seed strewn throughout the grow!!

ME TOO LOL subscription acquired

So, I've always wondered... Do you get to name the product yourself? Does someone "official" keep track of these sorts of genetics, or is the process less formal?

Cheers

First 'SKUNKBUBBLE' just sounds appealing, great job on this grow m8,
ur bubblegum is feelin for that pollen, delicious looking!

Is there any benefit to 'manually' pollinating, or is it just to guarantee results.

"Just prior to opening" whereby the pollen is taken just prior to open flower stage,

Well i always say, "Sacrificing a small yield is to investing in a huge crop."

Skunkbubble could be the next new thing

I you grow the new genes then you name it and whatever you want at thatbut for the most part. names are given by the breeder so go make a difference aand a new strain

Tead,

As far as naming goes, I think it is like what pokesmot said. I am breeding a few varieties at the moment, and the Skunkbubble will be something special. In a lot of ways breeding and naming your own strains is part of the fun. Particularly if you ever get to hear your strain name mentioned by someone somewhere without them knowing it is your strain!

 

[Tead]

Sweet. Thanks for the info all.
Perhaps someday I'll get fancy and make my own strain!

Cheers

 

[DownOver]

Tead,

You should definitely do it! You could call it Creole Gold!!

 

[Tead]

Oh my... all sorts of names dance in my head.
It would be "Creole".. no avoiding it. Anything grown in The Big Easy would HAVE to be creole something or other.
Ahhh what fun! Perhaps that will be my project for the next grow round.

Cheers!

 

[Tead]

hmmm... perhaps "gumbo" something or other.
I'd consider "Gumbo Ya Ya", but there's a local band with that name.

sorry.. the random thoughts are flowing

Cheers

 

[DownOver]

Good to see the thought process!! I thought of something you could do, start a poll here and put up some names so that we can all give you votes on it and then you could go with that name!! Now Ive got random thoughts.....

 

[Tead]

I'm not sure I want to open it up to public input... I just like the idea of naming something new too much to share.
Don't get me wrong... I like the idea... I'm just not willing to share on the naming.


Cheers

 

[DownOver]

Yeah you are totally right! Just a stoned thought that's all!!

 

[Poke Smot]

what about bubblegumBo or, A TU FAYdead, aligators jaw, BOBBY bUshay

 

[Tead]

NICE!
Perhaps something "faix do do" based... you know... with the old school creole twang to it.

I might have to do some French/Creole research.

Cheers!

 

[Tead]

"gator jaw".... luvin it.

 

[Tead]

... of course, we could go the Magnolia angle.

 

[Tead]

eww.... "Pelican Kush"!

hey DG,

i'm here and ready. I am lovin the breeding aspect.
