I'm not much of a breeder, although I have made F1 and S1 and S2 before. I'm wondering what I should do with the males.
I'd like to back cross the S.cheese x jet47 with the S.cheese male. This would give me S.cheese Bx1 F1 ....right.
The males are further along with their flower development than the female. Concequently they will release pollen before I'm ready for it.
Should I lollipop the males and minimize the flowers that will open as to control the pollen?
Just knock off the flowers until I'm ready to pollinate as to stall the release of pollen?
I'm targeting a selective pollination of only 1 branch and want to harvest the rest for smoke. Anyone with experience I'd appreciate if you'd chime in. Suggestions are always welcomed.
