Stanks Go Perpetual In 2018!

[Mike Wright]

No, we have two males in a different tent. We have a Stankberry male and a Harlequin male in the tent downstairs. Gonna do a little pollen harvesting in a few weeks.

Looking forward to seeing that process. Fingers crossed for 1xm 1xf on my new grow.

Sue also puts banana peels in her ziplock bag with seeds for like 2 weeks, think she says she always gets females

Yes....that is the thing with the banana peel that I was talking about. I know there are people that think there are all sorts of things you can do to improve female ratio.

I don't care if I get a male. As long as the general ratio stays about 50/50 I am good. So no funny banana peel for me....if I get a crappy male ,I will cull him. If I get a nice male, I will take pollen.

My montra

JUST SAY NO TO POLLEN


Lol

 

[Van Stank]

LOL....I don't mind the occasional male in the tent. I just don't want a bunch at once.

Ms Stanks Harley male is going 12/12 today.

 

[Chris Scorpio]

I've been milking males for 3 months, time for a break
Have 3 ACDC to trim and one GDP

Anyone bored....lol

 

[KingJoe83]

Oh NO! I know about using boiled banana peels water.....not recommended for our HB grows..just so ya know, OK!!! They put way too much K (Potassium ) in the soil...messes up things..a lot! I used them a couple grows about 10 or so yrs. ago and the water from them also attracts nasties...just sayin ok !
Getting around to some of my subbed threads to hopefully reactivate my email notices. Cheers and have a great day around here!

Haha right own brotha

Yeah that was about two years ago I took a banana and put it in tent lol

Things a fella does without thinking eh lol

 

[KingJoe83]

Sweet Sue was placing bananas in her tent and allowing them to ripen. The ripening bananas give off Ethylene gas which is a hormone used by female plants to build flowers. Not sure what her final results were. I tried them and it just created gnats for me.

Yeah I kept in for two weeks all I noticed was it acted as a deodorant lol smelled like dirty banana lol

Never had a male. Wait that sounded wrong lol

Now that would be cool to see survey and statics to proven analysis lol

Not the thread for yer coming out of the closet Joe

Hold on....we did go down the Porn road...so yer good

 

[KingJoe83]

I realized in my current grow that some down leaves would really never make it. I wish I had remove them sonner in veg to redistribute the energy to top buds. So I now believe that trimming down leaves in late veg is mandatory as an optimization

Yeah like prep work for the big date you know I screwed up knew what to do but for some reason never got to plucking anything too late. Like week three flowering . OGC right now I’ve cleaned up a bit so see if better results

Haha

Nope I love female plants female parts just don’t like female mouths sometimes lol

But having a bad mouth ain’t going to veer me away bro.

Actually once you see one you really want to see them all lol

Much love buddy keep killing it in your garden buddy

 

[Van Stank]

hey Van...top of the mornin to ya sir! cruisin around to some of my subbed threads to hopefully get email notifications from them. Have a great day bud!

Hey Duggan, good to see ya brother, thanks for swinging through. Nothing in flower yet, but will be flipping a couple girls in a few days.

I like to keep my girls trimmed up nicely. I want energy focusing on growing upwards and bigger. Tougher to do that with a crap loads of leaves in the wrong area. But everyone has their own preference that works for them. Gotta find the method that works for you Flash. Try different things and when something works in your growing style then you are set!

Ms Stank and I are trying to refine a training technique that will allow easier pollen harvesting. I recommend getting a small to medium sized mirror (I like something about 8"x11" or even 11"x 17") so that you can tap the branches once the sacks burst so that the pollen will fall onto the mirror.

No worries brother! I never had a male until I started growing either! Now its second nature (just gotta be careful or you will end up playing with males all the time like Chris).

 

[Lowded118]

F gnats those f F's.
My name's lowded I have a watering problem...

 

[Pennywise]

You guys say males like they’re a bad thing! Lol

 

[TheGreenYeti]

You guys say males like they’re a bad thing! Lol

Most people consider them as such. if I had a spot that i could quarantine one to I would keep one around. As things stand though I cant. I would love to reverse my Slurricane and make more seeds of it for myself and friends. I also would not mind crossing it to my 9# Hammer. The hammer smells and tastes really good (from what i am told) and delivers a hell of a punch. The Slurry smells and tastes good but does not hit quite as hard. I also have a Donkey Punch that I think may be a male that I would not mind hitting my Orangeade with. It could be really fun making my own crosses if I could just flower out one male or reverse one female.

 

[Pennywise]

Try using STS to reverse a branch or 2.
