The Definitive Colloidal Silver Tutorial

if you think your seeing them now then in the next couple days you should begin seeing lots forming , timming to drop pollin is the same as a typical male

let us know how it goes

peace

Thanks buddy, it's been a couple of days but nothing really. They're still the same size. I must be doing something wrong. I'm planning on saving the pollen. Who knows though it may be a hermie

there is not much you could be doing wrong , about the only thing i could think of is the soil is continually wet due to normal watering and continual dampening due to spraying the plant , causeing the plant to be stunted ???

best of luck and peace

Balls started to appear quite a bit. But it seems none of them are opening. Would there be a way to extract the pollen manually? if so what would be the procedure?
Thanks!

VERY good question.

I've had that happen also and can't find why.
I've opened by hand and the pollen has been... weak(?) or just not so viable and minimum seeds resulted.
I've let the revert mature way beyond and they still would not open on their own.

Wonder if it's my CS strength,, frquency / amount of use,, or what. Maybe not starting early enough????????

Looking forward to input on this.

TYhanks for asking,, it's what I came back to the thread for. :thumbs:

i always see the earliest flowers not open , they just seem to drop off the plant , but approx 1 week later lots n lots open

My 75 day Autos need to go more than 12 weeks???? Wow.
I'll give it a go.

Generally I've been starting my Reverts about 3 weeks early. Seems to work well on the most part,, but, sometimes with some strains (more sativa?) not so good.

I was thinking of grinding the sacs and extracting the pollen that way

I would thi nk you'd have to dry those pollen sacs out or risk contaminating the ground pollen from moisture from the sac?

So would that mean cutting them, placing them in tupperwear for a couple of days then grind?
