I usually try to pollinate (and tag as pollinated with a twist-tie) the lowest branches, in case the main cola's are ready before the seeds. Then, I can just snip the main stem above the 'seed-line' and keep the rest of the plant in flower till seeds are more than ready. I've harvested too early plenty of times, ending up with half-baked seeds. (yellow, immature, too small for viability...) So now I give them some extra 'quality time'.
Good luck with 'em.
Rusty Trichome Reviewed by Rusty Trichome on . Breeding for Seeds I was told that inbreeding F1's is a bad idea. I have been looking at some Lowlife auto-flowering strains to fill in some gaps in my growroom but the seeds are kind of pricey. Could someone with some knowledge of genetics explain to me what would happen if I were to cross AutoAK-47 x AutoAK-47? Because I can't clone these auto flowering plants, I want to make seeds the first time around so I don't go broke. Automatic AK47 Rating: 5
