it holds truth....none of my trip Blueberries ever cloned and usually hermed out on me.... i did grow one to maturity tho and it was fine and funky as hell lookin
Defiantly clone it, multiple times. Nurse the hell out for the first couple: temp control, foliar feed (with dilute nutrients/hormones) everything in your power to get it to root. Once you have proven it can be done, then try more conventional methods.
Thats cool... have you ever reveged/flowered one to see if that stresses them into hermi too? Or played around with light cycles/nutrients to see if they are more sensitive that way?
Seedless fruit are the product of hormonal manipulation.. This same manipulation should be translatable to other plants with relitivey similar results. I have not yet experimented with this so I can't offer any personal truths or insights. However if you are really interested in sterile female plants you might want to look into it..
It's actually pretty hard to get his genetics to herm out.
Whats your regular cloning method? (What hormones, growing media and light cycle do you use?) How long do you veg before you flower? What growing method do you use?
Deformities are caused by genetic mutations.
I guess DJ Short doesn't know what he's talking about then, I posted the link did you read it?
Normally I use Rapid Rooter/Root Riots with rootech , but sometimes I use bubble cloners (with just H2o). Generally I do coco in smart pots, but I do aero and RDWC evrey once in awhile too. Veg times vary and I flower with 12/12.
Do you experience an equal occurrence of hermaphrodites in these blueberry clones regardless what methods you use?
Perhaps I misunderstand I'm under the impression we are having a conversation stemmed from
where you came in with
I assumed you then had similar experiences to Dizzle Frost where none of their trip Blueberries ever cloned and usually hermed out.
This girl is at about day 40 of flower. You can see the deformity in the leaves (really prevalent on new leaves) This is a prime example of a deformity rather then a mutation.
Same thing happened, bought a clone entitled (blackwater kush, who knows collectives are retards) it only grew 3 finger leaves, flowered it at 24 inches, got some dank, only about a half zip tho. Cloned it, its clone is 2 feet tall, it has 5 finger leaves and 7 finger leaves.
I just agree with this.
I'm sorry, but you seem to be twisting science around. Cannabis is a plant, it follows the same rules as all the other plants. I suppose a deformity could be caused by stress factors, but is this really a deformity or a reaction to stress. For example over-watering, under-watering, uneven watering, insects, pathogens, could cause simple deformities in the shape of the leaves. Is this what you are talking about? What is most likely happening with the more potent mutants is crossing over. This is a certain type of chromosomal mutation, where the chromosomes cross over. This is how a mutation can cause the same effect more than once, and why some people might see the same mutation DJ short has. Maybe this is the "difference" between your deformity and his mutation. With a double cross over it is possible to achieve the higher potency, but with a 'deformity' in the shape of the leaves.
How am I of all people in this thread twisting science around?
