What products do you use for spraying the females? Did you make your own Blueberry Yum Yum?

For the females i am currently working with Colloidal Silver.
spraying daily starting 1 week before putting them into 12/12.....
Blue Dream is a hard strain to turn i have come to realize.

The BBYY i have is from a good friend of mine who has a source in the UK looking for some lost strains.
Will NOT know about any rare pheno types until the 5th-6th week of flowering.
that's when it's known to turn blue. from all the info i have read on it.
AND it requires a 15-20 degree temp drop at night to achieve if the pheno is present.


BTW everyone. I have decided to pull a cotton candy for the silver sprayings as well. this way i can still make my cross if the BD don't turn.
I can still cross the 2 but with the CC pollen instead. :)

Ok guys. Little bit of an update here.....

Mixed up a 50PPM of Colloidal Silver.... Sprayed the BD clone that's in veg. as well as a cotton candy clone in veg.

I'm going to take a few cut of the blue thai tomorrow. But I have one rooted already. :)(was a snapped stem during the super crop that just got clonex and a plug. lol. and now 2 weeks later it's rooted. :))

The one that just rooted will get turned to a male.. Just in case i can't get the Blue Dream to work out....

HOWEVER!! With the CC clone that i am turning, if the BD doesn't go male, i will use the CC pollen on a few Blue Dream clones. :)
That way i can still make that strain the way i want it.
And still have a double blueberry cross for Dank's mom's strain.


That's about it for now. Have a great day.'

Everything's looking good bro. From my experience I don't plan on the crosses I'm going to make till the females show sacks. It makes it less disappointing like with the blue dream you planned. When I first started feminizing I had all these plans but like you've seen sometimes the females just don't want to reverse and it mucks up the whole agenda. I had written out in my note book all these crosses and backcrosses, stabilization crosses etc and sometimes the cookie just don't crumble that way. I had to redo most of my plans because some plants didn't reverse and some regular plants didn't give me any males. As pollen chuckers the saying 'don't count your chickens before they hatch' applies to us in the most literal sense. Good luck with the rest of your journey once you harvest those first few beans theres no going back.

Nice... :) I just harvested that auto last night and should have beans from it. I know for a fact there's at least a dozen.
I pollinated one of the solo cups and just transplanted it into a 2 gallon so she can get a little bigger and grow some good seeds. :)
She's gonna have a bunch.

Best time to dust is when she looks like a white cactus. When all the overies are receptive to males. Between days 24-33 I believe. But like its been mentioned some ladies don't want dicks. I wonder if rodelization works good? Supposedly its how Soma makes his fems.

i checked a few seeds before i harvested. they were turning darker color last week and hard as rocks. I dust a little earlier so that i can keep dusting for a few days. that way i know i've pollinated.

That's the way to do it. Been tinkering on the idea of fem beans myself. Looks like I ended up with beans for my next outdoor run as ya can tell. Now I just gotta wait longer for the buds.:-( At least I'm gonna have blueberry projekt x satori; also some blueberry projekt x super critical sensi star. Then some Bb projekt f2 oh and bbprojekt x boudica if the males pollen reached the bodica. Not fem though. I'm getting tired of paying top dollar for seeds.

You are speaking my language.
BB x Satori, BB x Super Critical Sensi Star sounds great
BB and Sensi Star make for great crosses.

Meh... I just hope the male was a stud. I like to remove all males from the garden. Unless I selectively choose em. I go to my spot at night. Hard as fuck to see at night. With out light too. Something was telling me it was male. Not a big loss buds and beans.

Gonna grow the beans as strong seedlings outdoor. Towards the month of May. In a way more secluded spot. Where I don't have to worry sbout turning on a light for a few seconds.

No updates yet. Been dealing with thrips.


Guess i can say a little bit.

GDP is a male and in the closet under 12/12
Cocoa Puffs was also male and is in the closet as well.

Been spraying a BD clone and a Cotton Candy clone in the veg tent, using a solo cup with the bottom cut out to cover them while spraying. so nothing is sprayed around the tent. lol

got a blue thai clone i have to start spraying soon.
just in case i need to use that over the BD for dank's mom's cross.

Ummm........ Got a Jack Herer clone last night. and a GSC but had to toss the GSC because of mites. fuck that, no way i need that added to the thrips hahaha.

Got seeds from the first spyder in the bud still for right now. take them out in a few weeks i guess. :)

Solo spyder got cut down today with 60% cloudy 40% amber trichs.

threw out the first 2 BD clones i put in 12/12 because they didn't turn male and i have no use for them all covered in silver.

Are you going to let the male GDP develop to see if it could be a keeper male? Good work by the way. My GDP male wasn't frosty at all so I let him go. I think it's hard to find a good male.

My GDP male is a nice short stacked plant. Thought it was female lol. Smells good. So i will collect his pollen this coming week. He's fully developed already. been in 12/12 for a week and a half. :)

Gonna make my own Purple Dream with him and then feminize the best pheno of 40 plants in the next grow. :)

Next grow i am starting about 100 or so seeds. and keeping only certain females and males i like. giving the rest of the females away to local caregivers.. lol
