So what if you let female and male plants grow together and let pollination happen in order to get seeds, will the pollen that's left over in the grow box pollinate later generations of female plants?

Possibly but very unlikely. I believe pollen becomes inactive after like 12 days unless it's being stored away like in a freezer. 3 months > 12 days. :D Goodluck.
I wouldn't risk it.Just wipe everything down real good with a water bleach concocktion.(I don't no how to spell)haha
Well I think I'll try it just because seeds can get expensive.
Sure they get expensive, but who the hell cares.. I wouldn't mind paying 100£ for a couple of good seeds, that produce buds for 1000£!:)
If you pick a good male you can harvest the pollen and then only pollinate the bottom parts of the flowering plant and still have the best of both worlds. :)
Oh.. Why didn't I think of this? You are a genious my man!: )Quote:

I discovered how easy it is to produce seeds and now I'll never run out.
Peace
Next idea is to set up a seed trade....no money changing hands but seed for seed done as a friendly exchange.
Would that not be nice someday!!
Definitely. I'd be up for that. :)Quote:

Too bad you can't find honest traders like that anymore. Since I came here, I've done only 2 trades. Got ripped off both times :mad: So I'm off trading for awhile until I can get my stock back up to par.
Peace
I hear that NOC.
I have gifted hundreds of seeds this past year. Guess I need to make another round of seeds soon too.
got 30-40 female isis seeds going spare :rasta:
would love to trade for blueberry or strawberry
If anybody does want to trade please use email for details and not the forum. Better for your safety and others.
Thanks
