Sticky's Almost Perpetual Grow

my plants are on a rotation schedule everyday they get moved so its a good time to take pics my favorite pics are the bud pics im still trying to figure out how to get a good whole plant pic i think i dont really have enough room where im at but i will overcome lol anyway heres a few of todays pics have a good one people!:p

Nice ... good job! hehehe

Retirement.. it's more than they make it out to be!:Namaste:

Those plants are coming along nicely looking sticky!... you'll be stressin over harvest day soon enough... I'm there today, I need to chop... but have to wait.
 
Those three all UD's?

Yeah that bud looks pollinated. I can't wait for summer. I just sprouted 3 zamaldelica seeds ...showing their first 2 leafs. . . . could you imagine UD x zamaldelica? That might be a little extreme. I also have a couple china yunnan seeds from ace that should sprout any day now. They will be definite breeding candidates if they sprout and are healthy. Its going to be tough but I am going to clone all the females. After the summer harvest I will decide which ones to keep. Maybe have a solid UD mother or do one last breeding with it.

i think we need to pollinate everything you can always pick and choose later,

Hahahaha!

And what is a branch or two worth of buds? A drop in the bucket. I got 250 or more seeds off one medium sized branch last year. Bubber though I don't know the genetics. I bought a trial pack from a seed co in Canada and they sent me a mixed bag after they tole me they would be labled.... Emails back and fourth proved to be more confusing...

Anyways chucking pollen is easy. I just want to know more about what I am actually doing.

For example:
I have heard that F2's (what I think con bred a couple years ago, the seeds we have) produce mixtures of both F1 parents. In this case the seeds came off of 3 different females ( I think I remember correctly...) and we have been seeing phenotypes of the Chem side and OG sides for the most part. I have not heard of many smoke reports or of flowering times except what Con and Woody have told me.
Anyways... If I take one F2 male and F2 female and breed them, am I limiting the genetics? Should I take all the males and mix the pollen? I already have F3 seeds which Con made accidentally. I can sprout same F3 seeds and cross them to F2. What is the benefit of that? What if I take all the males every year and mix the pollen then only keep seeds off of my favorite female and do that for 10 years? WHat does that do?

I have been thinking and reading about breeding for years and am still completely confused. I think I might start a thread about breeding and feature the UD's this summer. I know a lot of people around here have bred them but it is hard to find every last important detail.

Sorry...rambling... .

Yeah it'd take a bit to get to the bottom of things, but start here. Basic Mendelian principle is pretty straightforward, but it won't work in the world of cannabis breeding.

Well start here:

Mendel's principles of heredity - Access Revision

I have read this a hundred times. It's a bit tricky but I think I understand the Mendelian stuff I just struggle to translate it to cannabis breeding. I think it is something I just have to try. I have to pay close attention to the plants and keep notes. I wish I could handle 100 or more plants but that is illegal and I do not have the space anyways.

I going to give it a solid go this summer and we will see if I learn something :)

Thanks for the input, Conrad! It's going to be a good summer!
 
It's because Mendel's theory has practical limitations. He worked with stable homozygous stock and cannabis breeders don't even know what it is. We bred out stability in favour of vast diversity, so one line contains many genotypes. It caused the genome to mutate big time, so it's almost impossible to see repeatable patterns in F1 crosses. Now you get everything, dominating and recessive genes next to each other and it's hard to even say which one is which. A big mess really!

i no its strange it was78 today low temp 54 next week its going to be about 10 degrees cooler still not to cold,think im going to start a couple more i want 3 females out there!
 
More UDs? Nice! I will be limited by the law - "4" plants. I live in a downtown area where I have neighbors on all side. Most of which don't care. I have less friendly neighbors that certainly walk by...but my yard is inaccessible by a shoddy fence that poses a risk to intruders willing to try their hand at getting tetanus. I have honestly thought of growing the 4 biggest bitches the world has ever seen..... espescially with the early flowering girls. If a tripped out tweeker stops by for a branch... whose loss? Mine by 1 of 100 branches. I just worry about some stupid stopping by with a shotgun....

By buddy died last year in a car crash. All his close friends...many whom dabbled in the darker side of life were parked in my driveway blocking my truck in. One of them was crying and he looked at me and said "sorry we have to do this". Now I have "4" pot plants in the back... almost ready to harvest.... I thought they were there to rip me off..... 6 big guys... who I know are truly good people but I judged them.... My heart went through the roof. After only a few seconds I realized it was not what I thought... at all. We drank all the beers I had in the fridge and more that night. RIP Paul...

Some people will kill ya for some weed I think. Maybe not nowadays but there are a lot of stupid people....never know.

Nice girls. im just looking through the rest of your journal in a sec quick question though why are your leaves so close to the soil? Have you filled the pot back up with soil all that way?
