Im a little oressed for time so I hope I can get an answer pretty quick. I'm new to breeding and there is just something drawing me to begin tring my hand at it. With that being said I'm sure this has been answered mutipull times so here go's. Ive collected pollen from an exceptional male Vortex and I'm wanting to X it with a beautiful female from a Swiss breeder. My question is... If I pollinate just a few bud sights on a single or maybe even two branches, how bad will that effect the rest of the plant as fare as yield and just its general vigor. I mean will production drop off 10, 20 40 %. What should I exspect?
Thank You.

For the most part, only the pollinated bud will be affected. The rest of the bud should be sinsemilia quality. Just make sure you turn off all fans, remove the female you're working with, isolate the branch and put a garbage bag over the rest of the plant, wash your hands and hair and change clothes after. I'd wait a couple days before putting her back in with the rest, also you can spray the bud with water after a day or two to wash away any loose pollen.

To clarify on your actual question, pollinating one little lower bud shouldn't affect the overall vigor and quality.

the seeded bud (if well pollinated) will lose aboit 50% of its weight in seed, from my exerience. and yeah racerboh is right shits just as potent as sensi.
