Pollen timing...

Here's my clone, in the flower tent for 2 days now and still being sprayed daily with colloidal silver.

Just wanted confirming that I have my timing about right. The six ladies in with her/him are flowering @week 5 now.
I figure 2 weeks for some hermie flowers/pollen to start being produced, which gives the girls around 3 weeks to produce seeds if they run to 10 weeks (Which we know, they do.)

Sound about right?
Thanks in advance..........
 
Yeh, isn't that the truth!
This is my 2nd attempt, last time my colloidal wasn't strong enough I think.
I'm in for the long wait....thanks polyarcturus
 
sounds like you are cutting it pretty close, sworth.
yeh, the numbers add up if you get good pollen in 2 wks and if they mature in 3... entirely possible...but close. You may have to run them a little longer.
I personally start spraying and flowering at the same time. That way, when pollinated (after about 3 weeks), I have at least 5 full weeks to mature. My last seed crop did mature in 3 weeks after pollination but I like to give them 5.:peace:
 
Cheers.
I don't mind waiting on them longer.
I figure on ensuring my best lady is pollinated sufficiently, and consider her prime crop to be the seeds, and not so much the bud.
She can stay in flower tent as long as she needs since I've changed my grow style to smaller harvests more often, so there's no problem with space.
I'm quite looking forward to seeing a grand old lady dripping with resin and seeds....there's always hope ;)
 
Indeed it is...
I made some S2s of the Afg Kush a year or 2 ago. Grew some out last summer. They turned out pretty good....not narcotic like they say but a nice smoke. My mate liked it because he could smoke and still talk to his wife. Not enough sativa for me but still, nice smoke.
