Seeds without wrecking your yield?

Hey there guys. I have been thinking, Could you take a clone off of a plant at the beginning of flower, and simply fertilize that? I am looking for 20 or 30 seeds for next years grow, and I figured this might be a good plan.

I've took clones off plenty of plants during the start of flower,it takes a while for them to root but they will start to throw out leaves and stem and revert to veggin.i even done it halfway thru flower cycle ,they look crazy as hell when stems and leaves start popping out of a fully formed buds.good luck bro

Pollenateing one small lower bud wont affect yeild esp not only 30 flowers just spray her with Water after réal Well assuming your plant is under atleast 250 hps

The easiest way to achieve the results desired are as follows.
1 chose location for seed production, branch or flower.
2 mist plants flowers, excluding the desired flowers selected for seed,
3 bag the missed plant, again excluding the desired seed production sites.
4 dust with pollen, paintbrush works.
5 allow to hang out and dry a bit, 1-2 hours, then spay the whole thing with water again
done

The water activates a trigger within the pollen when wet stopping it from fertilizing. I have done this many times with great success.

Peace

not fully true. but it helps prevent it . ya.. ummm i wouldnt take clones off a flowering plant and try to fertilize them because u need to root them.. and they will reveg.. and then u will need to flower them out to pollinate them.. take clones before flower.. and pollinate those.. if u are really worried about it.. make a tiny box.. 2x2x3 or smaller.. and make seeds in that with a single CFL bulb. honestly. we use a 400w hps.. in a 3x4x4 and we can pull about 1000 seeds a run.. and thats with tiny clones.. with bigger plants.. u can do 1000s
