Paintbrush method! Always does the trick for me.

No plant can look that healthy, seriously.

Are you implying that I doctored the pictures?

No no no .. Yup. What's been feeding her, green beer?

I think it’s the new soil mix I have been using, all my plants are looking much better than usual, they are in dark at the moment but veg room comes back on at 5:00 pm central time and flower room at 7:00. I will put up more pics tonight.

Looking & sounding good OJ :volcano:

Turns out my GSC hermied & is very short on bud & full of (useless?) seeds. 1st time this has happened since my first BS grow a couple decades ago. All the years growin I never grew anything so purple, was excited too..oh well. Looks like the rest of my small crop is ok. I'm sure there's a few seeds here & there. Not really a problem since it's just personal stash. Maybe a little less yield.
I attempted to pollinate the Ice & the Bubbalicious with pollen from a BS male by using the paint brush method, one branch each. I used the BS pollen because the Ice & Bubba wouldn't drop their dust. Probably due to the cold temps in the house. One of the perils of cheapskate living...

Interesting cuz when I grew out some supposedly Afghan, very purple flowers too, also hermied bad. tho its progeny did make pretty pink flowers, bad smke, hermied, worthless, cut it out of my line. Only good thing was all the seeds, I kept em to take pictures when I needed show a lot of seeds, say in a background.

Personally I wouldn't trust those seeds.

Yeah I might just chuck the ones I tried to make too as there's probably going to be hermies mixed in & I don't wanna deal with that. The damn thing is a monstrosity atm. I might get a quarter ounce of bud after I remove it from the seeds.

That sucks ripper, hate wasting my time and effort. On the bright side you truly do have some wonderful birdseed....
