Here are pics

 

[InTheShed]

any recommendations?

Carry on with what you're doing!

Should I pull more leaves from this lady or let her be for now ,? Pulled all big fan leaves and she isn’t real big but stout /shrub kinda .. strain is gdp from 420 fem bean

When did you flip?

 

[Kevin 1205]

Here is same room different girls , all relatively same age .. ethos early lemon berry ,

 

[Kevin 1205]

When did you flip?

Approx 2weeks now

 

[Kevin 1205]

Approx 2weeks now

9-17 exact date

I'd thin that out 21 days post flip when stretch should be finished. It's pretty dense in the middle for airflow. On the LB I'd probably just take off some of the very lowest leaves at the soil level. Looks nice and airy!

But that's just me.

The LB hasn’t been touched yet , the gdp has had all big fans pulled , will wait on the gdp , she hasn’t stretched really much at all , just hope she stacks .. all the others are stretching kinda quick , but I think they are all out growing the gdp due to it being the only Indica in there .. who knows .. but it’s fun to watch em grow for sure ..

 

[Kevin 1205]

Need help deciding if she is done , I am looking for 90-100% milky , no amber if possible ( I am lazy enough ) has 6 days left to complete 8 weeks 12/12 but all pistols orange red ,

A little hard to tell from the close-ups, but I think I still see a lot of clear.

Anyone got tips on using sts to grow male sacs on females and harvesting pollen from them to apply to another lady for seeds ?? I just ordered a bottle of sts, and feel I have spent enough on purchasing seeds and wanna produce my own .. pros and cons anyone ??

 

[InTheShed]

I haven't seen STS used, but Pennywise has this link in his sig:

How To Reverse Sex Using Silver Thiosulfate Solution

The following is a safe, inexpensive, and successful method for reversing the sex of female cannabis plants. Individual plant responses may vary based upon strain, but I can verify that this process is fully effective in stimulating profuse staminate flower production. This process can be used...

@InTheShed @Pennywise @SilverFox , I recently grabbed some colloidal silver and would like to pick someone’s brain that has used it ..
My main questions are ,.
1. For example, I have 3 420 all labeled dp1,dp2,and Durban poison3 fem plants going , I have taken 2 clones from each and they are doing extremely well .. about a month rooted now , all about a foot -16 inches tall .. also have 1 gdp I pulled clones from at same time .. since pulling the clones and them doing good I flipped all moms .. well dp3 seemed to instantly frost up ( crazy amounts ) and the gdp is a pheno like I have never saw before , super white tric’s and leaves are like silk ( super soft to feel ) .. would I be ok to take one dp3 and one gdp clone and spray them to reverse them to harvest pollen .. what would be best scenario cross the dp3 and gdp ? Or take pollen from gdp and female gdp and self it ( or the dp3 ) or should I pollenate dp2 with dp3 pollen .. I know I am asking some questions that are ( all up to grower /breeder , just want others opinions .. I am gonna keep some clones from original mom ( dp3 and gdp)to keep that line going ,Thanks you guys for all the help .. can post pics of all plants I am trying to work with if needed ..

If I had a really good GDP I think i would reverse for S1’s

 

[InTheShed]

If you're chucking pollen and have plants, make all the crosses and S1's you want .

If you want instructions on using CS, beez0404 did a great thread on that. I collected the most important posts here.

I wanna reverse one gdp and one Durban poison , but don’t wanna screw anything up ( as to why I am keeping atleast one clone of each and gonna pollenate one clone of each for s1 beans ) .. my only issue is I don’t wanna “down grade “ my plants , that’s why I am picking only the best 2 to try this on .. I will look up that thread for using sts also ..

 

[Pennywise]

Ok and remember that S1’s behave just like F2’s. They will produce approximately 25% more recessive traits than the original F1’s. Which means plenty of phenotypes to sort through. S1’s can produce better phenos than the original mother. Always search through your S1’s for those unicorns.
