I think that’s an interesting cross, no matter how things shake out.

Which, the AG x Shoreline, or the (AG x Shoreline) x (SR-71 PK x ECSD)?

The latter, but I am down with whatever! I just heart the danks.
I wish I could do a breeding project, but I have neither the time nor the space.

I didn’t read back to see where the AG was from. I had some in the day, and it was delicious.

The AG is from a friend in Northern Ireland. They took a Barney’s Farm AG to an heirloom AG and feminized it somehow or another, either via feminine pollen of one to the other, or feminizing the F1. I also have the last two of their original Barney’s they bred with. I thought you meant the latter, just wasn’t sure if you meant that or the current step.

@cannabineer @curious2garden In your experience, generally how long from flip until I start harvesting male pollen? I’m getting information that I should dry the pollen before either storing it in the freezer in multiple sealed containers with rice as well as that I should dry the pollen before immediate use.

i let mine dry out for 24 hours before freezing

My experience has been 2-4 weeks depending on the strain. As for drying it I've just left mine in a petri dish sitting on the counter. We run about 10% humidity and my pollen was viable well over a year and a half.

For freezing it I have no idea, sorry.

I have no experience with saving pollen. The one time I did a seed run I used it fresh off the plant.

What kind of lights you using?
Those are very compact for sativa.
Also does that shoreline male smell are?

Are you saying it’s viable for a year after drying and storing at room temps? Thanks, Annie.

Gotcha, thanks, Bear-Bear.

I run 200w of COB for vegging both and for flowering the Acapulco Gold at 12-18”. Then, the Shoreline gets 78w of COB at around 8-10 inches. It smells like a really pungent roadkill skunk, with some nice sour and earthy undertones. Very pungent.

I think the light intensity keeps them low, because the lower lateral branches are catching up to the apical growth tip.

For me it was because I only have 10% humidity for you it won't be. So you'll need to dry it and freeze it with a desiccant.

Ok, that’s what I figured. How long will that last, and are there any special instructions regarding its thawing and use thereafter? How long to dry?

You know I bet @Singlemalt would be better at answering this question. I'm sort of a growing disaster waiting to happen.

Most published pollen viability/storage scientific research has been done on various tree species. I've read anecdotals that have claimed Cannabis pollen will remain viable up to 1-1 1/2 yrs. Keep in mind that a dime sized clump of pollen has millions of cells so it may be difficult to assess decreased viability for the standard grower. Anyway, all pollen studies agree that dark, dry, cool to cold conditions are best for storage.

Dry down to 10-15% RH, store in screw-top air-tight dark glass vials at 1-10C. When retrieving for use, allow the stored vials to come to room temp in a non-humid environ before opening. Your pollen should be good for at least 6+ months.

I disagree, based on what I know.

i have viable 4 year old pollen. 2 strains. dried for 24 hours, stored in folded up construction paper envelopes, placed in a mason jar and in the freezer. i only open the jar for a packet of pollen, which i let come up to room temp for a few hours then use.

successfully pollinated with it a couple weekends ago.

think i have some pics in the tent#3 thread in my sig.
