If I remember correctly, mine matured about 5 wks. after pollination. I pollinated about 4 wks. in- hope this helps.did you think about the amount of time it takes seeds to mature?

i was wondering if the op knew, but you gave a great answer. i pollinate in 3-4 week n let em go 5-6 weeks to mature. tyIf I remember correctly, mine matured about 5 wks. after pollination. I pollinated about 4 wks. in- hope this helps.

Hey CC- I'm not sure if it's the "true" Cali-O, but I currently have Homegrown Fantaseeds' version. I've always heard good reports about them, unlike Dutch Passions' C.Orange. Nirvana no longer carries this strain, and it's hard to find it in its' pure form (for some reason). I will do a report as soon as I run it-Been trying to get my hands on a true cali O for years!
most people dont have room for hundreds of plants.Basement breeders?
Always making weak and unstable genetics.......
Just crossing with out back crossing? How many plants used? Best pheno's?
A true breeder uses HUNDREDS of clones to pick his breed stock.
He back crosses to stabilize and knows how and why.
ive also done backcrossing,cubeing, and made a few feminized strains.. i normally go out of a pack of 10 seeds find the best female and male. reg people cant aford to buy 100 seeds when its already expensive buying a pack of 10..however if i buy a pack of 10 f1 hybrids i find the 2 best and backcross to sabilize before i breed and in that process i can end up with hundreds of seeds but i only keep the finished stabilized seeds for future breeding or if i get a plant i really like i feminize her and make s1 seeds.Basement breeders?

can you give more info about this?Just crossing with out back crossing?
in order for your seeds to be uniform((the same)) you must use the same pollen of a desireable male and inbreed it with its own seeds 3-4 times is normally ok its called cubeing when u backcross a male with its daughter, then plant those seeds find best female back cross it, plant seeds back cross best female again all useing that same males pollen after 3-4 generations all seeds will be the same or uniform if u did it right.can you give more info about this?

I have the pdf if anyone wantsMmm, I knew someone would ask. That's a long story !
Here, let me suggest this book to not just answer your question, but to answer the inevitable follow-up questions!
This is a pretty damn good resource.

This maybe a hard read, but you should read it! It will cover all the aspects of what your trying to do, how to do it and why.
On this site is a great breeding forum that you can turn to for help AFTER you read that book !
Please spend the dime and get the book. Read it, and read it again if need be!
Good luck.
That goes into WHAT strains you choose to start a program with!ive read several books on breeding, even after all that, sometimes u end up guessing what to do with certain phenios that tern up.. all the females and males u use in breeding must have all the qualities your looking to breed into or out of the strain so choose your males and females carefully or you could end up with 20 seeds and 20 diferent plants..
