Yeh it would pollinate the rest of the plant actually i spaced out lol "female mother plants or cuttings lol" not branches, but its worth it to spray a whole mother plant with the STS solution and yeild possibly 1000 viable seeds other than continuesly cloning and rooting cuttings... its all about personal preference i guess lol you can look it up on google pretty easily im sure but i heard about it from my buddy n it works wonders to make FEMALE ONLY seeds.
