Think different, is it as good as they say.

Not one hundred percent sure if you go on you tube I found a few videos on it. I'll usually look up as much info as possible and try to go with the info that matches others. That way I'm not trusting one persons info. I think in order for them to be the most stable is to use the least stressful method. I can't say for sure never tried either method. Vancouver island seed bank only messes with reg beans because they say that feminizing seeds will always leave room for possible Hermie.

I have heard that using CS and taking the pollin and using it on another female makes for more stability but have no clue, something to look into.

You are right about stabilizing the pheno I believe.

I think the least stressful is to just let a female go so long that it will pollinate itself to ensure next gen. And all those seeds will be female. You'd have to do some research on it. I do t want to give the wrong advice. And yes apparently you can get reg auto. I just heard about it this year and have not checked into it.

I wonder how seed bank' breeders do. Never heard about reg auto beans, huh? Never tried reg beans thinking I would be safer w fem just cuss I thought they were not incline that much to hermie, adn for sure never male. Is that different reg beans? yield ? timing?

If you get reg beans they are all the same as fems. You just have to pay super attention to which are males and females. If you just let em go you will have thousand of seed and barely any bud. You have to keep males separate and do selective pollination. That way you only have one bud that is seedy and the rest of plant will be sensi

FUCKING INCREDIBLE

I loved it. It was good even though I screwed it so bad.

This is actually a VISC strain. VANCOUVER ISLAND SEED COMPANY. I grew there blackberry out about six years ago. Very high quality genetics. Only trouble is they only offer reg no fem. But if you can clone no biggie

I ran 4 in a 4x4 under 1k. It is a massive plant, too big for an auto IMHO. Lemon taste to me, odd bitter smell. Long plant to grow. I forget but it was about 3 weeks longer then other autos. Also came close to hitting my hood. I grew a fantazmo. Awesome small resin covered plant. Did it in a 1 gallon. Great plant

No blackberry and FI are photo plants. I guess shoulda mentioned that or left them out of thread. Was just trying to figure out what this video was all about and why

Nice crystals man. That's kinda similar looking to the ak I did.

Yes I hope it's a good as it looks .

One of untouched

What strain was that again I'd like to try it next year.

It's think different and u may want to wait until the smoke report comes in. I've grown some really nice looking auto's but all were shit . I just smoked (vapped) a bud, just dried, barely, and about to go in jars. It's not actually half bad but the first smoke of a new strain gets me high so this one doesn't count lol. The taste was not bad for non cured, thinking it will have ok bag appeal. Haven't weighed the plant but will once I get a battery but figuring an ounce and a bit for today's pick. Out of 7, 3 are going to yield 1.5 to 2 ounces, 2 mutants are like 1/2 each and maybe an ounce for the bigger of the two. I figure about 5 ounces perhaps a bit more. The first one was pretty much 8 weeks and the others are probably 1-2 weeks out, so a 10 week strain with one short pheno. So far it seems to be the better of the 4 or 5 I've done. Not bad for $70 and a few bags of dirt lol.

Can't beat that

Well here it is. This is a seed out of my Dutch passion auto blueberry. It's from a banana so we will see. It was my first auto grow and they flopped on me. I get a second chance in the same year to try again. So we will see what happens. as you can see it is already a little deformed righ out of the gate. I've had plants do this and sometimes they make it and sometimes they don't. It does look like I'm getting new growth though.

Hmmm seems the TD is a bit of a herm as well. Found 2 seeds so far, one that is white and dead and one that likes viable, well it did till I cut it in half lol.

That sucks it's always cool to get free seeds. I'm gonna order one extra plant of each strain next year and just let it go until it seeds itself and see if I can get some seeds to work out that way. I don't know if it will fuck up the gene pool though. Well see it's always fun to play around.

Yes I was going to let the mutant little one go and see what happens, free seeds would be nice and next year I'll hit em with CS. I only grow auto's outdoors so it'll be a bit

Yeah I wouldn't bother wasting my time in either. It's to costly to pay for all that power and shit all to have a bunch of mutts

Have myself tried to pull a couple beans from light stress but so far nothing crazy, like atrophy, deforms, herms and things that not even have name, lol.
Still want to try CS, and see what happens, I have a good silver to do it.
