Do you remember I said she smells like a urinary tract infection? Well she has gone from infective honeymooners to subjective honeyswooners.
Heeyy Trala congrats absolute stunnersHello Guys!
It’s that time of the week again lolling.
Well the time has come for me to cut Cleo’s throat. My trimmer is coming over tomorrow and he’s going to get the job done.
I saw a couple of nanners on her yesterday, and that made my decision. I hate nanners. They look like ugly little yellow tongues. I didn’t get a glitter pic today coz I’m harvesting her either way.
Cleopatra Bee aka Wedding Cake

It really was!
Thank you
Omg I feel so much better. Not 100%, but defs 74% better.
Hi Carmen.Your plants sunbathe by the pool, is there an outside chance that Cleo was pollinated by a rogue male? It seems quick for seeds to become so well developed if it's from the late show nanners. Maybe you didn't hermie a plant after all? My one plant also developed late stage nanners. I am told it is quite a common occurrence. Maybe you have a careless neighbor who is growing males. Don't be embarrassed. You are highly respected as a grower and shit happens all the time. You've been sick too so you have an excuse for dropping the ball slightly on the timer. Congratulations on the harvest
Arr well trala chin up at least you have some more beans to try againOmg so I’m going to tell you all something, and I’m so fucking embarrassed and mortified. I so wanted to do Carcass proud and be all, I harvested and it was the miracle ending, but not to be. It makes me mad at myself coz I know people in here think I treat growing as a joke, but I don’t. I work hard on my plants, read them, try my best to make them sing. And I know stuff. I just like fun too. But ultimately I want to be respected as a grower. I want to show people I can do it, that my opinion has merit. Todays effort does not demonstrate this lollll
So as I told you, she had thrown a couple of nanners. Just made me eager to harvest, I wasn’t concerned coz I saw carcass had had nanners too. As I was harvesting I saw a seed, perfectly formed in that side ovary part. Then I saw another. I clocked it but I thought don’t panic. Then I started to look at the fluffy popcorny stuff at the bottom, and it just looked like seeds were going to form. Like hadn’t yet, but were going to. I was so relieved the Coca-Cola’s were okay.
So this is the embarrassing part, when I checked my timer, I had once again accidentally flipped up two pins, going on for an hour between 1-2am and again at 3-4am. So for the last maybe 7 days she’s been getting 12 hours plus 1 plus 1.
So I finally hermed a plant.
Here are some pics of the popcorn. You could squeeze those round things and a bit of green would come out.
I found 2 and a half seeds in total, so I was able to avert a total disaster. The bottom fluffy stuff I’ve just kept for kief.

I don't know, sorry, but pollen is sneaky a.f. and can travel up to 30 miles (I'm a kilometers person but found it in miles on the web). They talk about buffer zones of up to a 10 mile radius between cannabis fields to prevent cross pollination. I lost an entire plant last year to rogue pollination. I do think those seeds look mature and the nanners came late, so I'm doubting they are responsible. I made seeds a few years ago and they took a while to mature, like weeks or a couple of months.
I think its fair to say that metric is actually by far the most common measurement used. But Merica just refuses to yeild. Im sure its a fair bit to do with the English.
I remember @Stunger got results that initially seemed viable after a very short time. Viable vs mature is probably a big difference but his result certainly fascinated me.I made seeds a few years ago and they took a while to mature, like weeks or a couple of months.
I hope you have a restful evening Tra
Those pale/white Mulanje seeds only got to 17 days old I think before I lost the plant. Yet surprisingly they seemed to sprout fine, but it was winter time and I didn't feel like putting the energy in to handhold them to fruition, so the weather and slugs wiped them out, but I think they would have gone all the way if it had been spring/summer.
I dare not use them. I think a hermed plant produces herm seeds. Look I’m not sure if I read that here or I’ve somehow made it up as true. I’m 94% sure I read you can’t trust the genetics of a herm seed.Arr well trala chin up at least you have some more beans to try again
Hmm Carmen I’ll try and draw a picture where I found the mature seeds.I don't know, sorry, but pollen is sneaky a.f. and can travel up to 30 miles (I'm a kilometers person but found it in miles on the web).
