Breeding fem auto flowers

This works great ..... from amazon . Only one I use.

Grab any ( dark spray bottle / small ) and refill as needed.
I originally tried TIRESAS MIST ( worked but silver mountain was better deal ) , when I was out of Tiresas , I just kept bottle and refilled.

For autos , pretty easy . Autos start to sex out around Day 30 ( ISH ) give or take , so as “ soon “ as I see very early pubes forming on her , I target the first node set and the early budsites forming at bottom and carefully spray that node once a day. Do not get it on any of the rest of the plant ( especially if plan to consume this plant ).

I do it prior to lights out , using a paper plate with a slit that slid over stem to protect upper plant area against overspray and transfer. I actually at times LEFT that paper plate collar ( use cheap styrofoam , not plastic which may slice into stem ) and left it there , and only lifted slightly to MIST.
You not growing anything but pods so it will not affect any of the plant you are growing. In about 2 weeks or so pods will form , once they do stop spraying. Check your plant daily ... they grow fucking fast !

After awhile , they swell and split so timing is everything , clip the little branches and tweezer the left over pods , collect them , dry them out ( I use an old mirror ) in an area with no fans ( I covered with Tupperware cake top ) . I store in old cava cone tube once dry and store in butter tray area of fridge.

This is BLUE DREAM femmy pollen , so no matter AUTO or regular fem seed I can add this strain to the mix.

You can sacrifice an AUTO seed ( to a solo cup grow ) and spray the whole thing and collect lots of pollen , like above . The stored pods in tube are over a year in . When needed , I dump a few , lightly smash them to dump and razor blade it for use in a small pile . Then you can pollinate any plant that’s week 1 or 2 of flower. If you plan it right , you can have a set of preflowering autos ( or regs ) at the time you need it and perpetuate a seed run , plus get smoke.

Do you mix your own? It's my understanding it's not stable for long after mixing the 2 components? Asking because you see it for sale on Ebay. Premixed.

It’s been over year since purchase and still working fine. But I bagged it in a dark / black bag .

And to be honest I might not ever REALLY get to use it all. It’s a lot to have on hand for me.

As I have a bit too many beans on hand from various crosses. .......
