A beginners project

I don't have any experience but was going to say it looks like you are in the window!

I plan to dust a freezer bag and cover a select few cola and/or braches. Should be fine for my needs!

Thanks proph Do you think it will be an issue being held off until a day or two from now? Also I'm thinking of using either a plastic bag to branch isolation technique or straight isolate pollinate and re introduce once pollen has stuck what do you think has less chance of contaminating the others?

A day or two wont hurt, and either method will work fine. Whichever is easiest for you. I've done it both ways and have yet to have cross contamination to other plants. The pollen will fall down onto lower branches, so you may get seeds in more than just the bud you dusted. Either way you choose, just remember to spray all the plants down with water 24-48 hrs after you pollinate. That way you kill off any loose pollen that may be hanging around.

Nice, the spray down tip is what I was forgetting! And the pollen falling.. I'll try to do lowest branches only in order to keep the top healthy... Or just do the plant, well see. Cheers fellas!

@Prophetiko @fetled6 Just dropping in to update with the fact that I definitely missed the pollination window.. A bit bummed out but owell we still have our pretty flowers. Thanks so much for the advice anyway I'll be sure to take upon it in the future. Last visit I wasnt able to get pics because of the lights but I'm still going to finish the thread out weather it be here or elsewhere.

Really?

Awwee man, surely you will get some?

If they decide to rodelize then I may have some but I don't think the seeds would be ready around day 60 like the first sibling was.

Okay guys on my last visit about a week ago I was greeted with this... I believe the issue arose from being fed nutrients from a bucket that was not being aerated or tested for pH,ppm or EC. I left instructions to aerate the water before feeding and reduce bloom additives.
