I figured that. You are not one to disregard someone else's advice for sure. DubV is cool I am sure he didn't take offence. Yeah I was using distilled in the beginning if you remember, but I switched to spring because of what I heard. I'm just going to get a jug of the drinking water and test it out. Did you see the info about my male?? I didn't know this fool would start dropping pollen like it's hot at three weeks. Pretty sweet. The Squid holds the power of MI5 sperm! Mwahahahaha.

lol..that male is screamin' semen..for some reason i thought you were only using the distilled through seedling phase.

No I WAS using for everything, but not for long, a couple weeks maybe on my last grow.

No disrespect taken growbewan! Here is the thing and just think about for a second! Would you rather feed yourself and your plants with shit that has been treated with chemicals that you have no idea what is in them or feed them only something you know is clean and as pure as it can be! Ppm on wally world distilled water is 0 period! Nothing in it! We all know recommended starting ppm is 125-150 so wouldn't you rather give your girls something they can use such as Cal/mag to get your starting ppm up to where it needs to be or something you have no clue what chemicals are in it! If you want to be organic in anyway use distilled water and simply buffer it yourself with useful natural nutes! Also Cal/mag is a natural ph buffer so it will help keep ph in check as well!

Good points! Thanks! What about my male pollen deal?

Hey Squid you don't have to chop it to collect pollen. Just put a baggie around the top flower on your male and shake it until you see pollen falling off into the bag. Then just place that baggie around a limb on the female you want to pollenate and leave it there for an hour or so shaking it around occasionally. Am i making sense I'm kinda high right now.

 

[DubV]

Once you have enough pollen for your liking kill it! I have had males drop pollen at 16 days before so pollen is pollen unless you are breeding for specific traits!

Hey DubV what is a Curmudgeon?

Here you jasl, right out of the dictionary! A bad-tempered or surly person
