Eywa's Multi Harvest & Female Breeding Stress Test Tek For Cannibis Plants
    #18965501 - 10/11/13 07:56 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Eywa's Multi-harvest and Breeding Selection test for cannabis plants.

This technique allows you to quantify and qualitatively evaluate the optimum time for harvesting cannabis and select for extremely stable clone mothers. As a bonus I am giving a nice and extremely effective method for making all female beans for posterity!

Equipment:
Your grow!

Materials:
Needle, Fishing line, Scissors, and a little extra growing time.

Optional equipment and materials for the all female bean tek:
12-22v low current power source
Pure silver bar cut in two
Distilled Water
A small pint jar
Citric Acid

The TEK
Instead of killing your plant, harvest only the top buds and string them Christmas garland style on fishing line to dry. Then give the plant a dose of fertilizer to help it heal. This allows the smaller popcorn buds to mature more fully allowing you to be able to harvest the same plant multiple different times at different maturity points for different effects. This also allows you to get more of the bud to smoke from a single plant and allows the plant to focus energy to any beans to mature if you are doing a little conventional breeding on the side.

This technique will stress the plants bad, especially after the second harvest, to the point where most of them will go hermie (produce male flowers) on you. You can use these flowers to pollinate other plants  and make all female beans, but they may have a propensity to hemie when you don't want them to. However, something much better may happen instead!

You may get lucky and find a plant that did NOT go hermie, if so, you can switch your lighting to 24 hrs and get a REALLY bushy clone mother from a plant you already tried and tested to be true! This special and likely irreplaceable plant can be preserved as female beans instead of just clones that a spider mite infestation may destroy. All you need is to use silver citrate to force it to go hermie and create female pollen that ironically has that special hermie resistant trait!

All female bean tek
To make silver citrate, you take a silver bar (about $25 at any coin store), cut it in two and immerse it in pint jar of distilled water with a small pinch of citric acid added to it. Then you pass a modest electric current between 12 and 22 volts between the bars for about 3 minutes or so. Just be sure that the alligator clips or solder blob that you used to connect the bars to your power source DOES NOT TOUCH the water though or it will make the solution poisonous to the plant! You will see the bars corrode lightly, when both bars have visible corrosion you are done. The solution is ready to use immediately and works way better than CS. A one ounce silver bar would literally do THOUSANDS of full size plants! As a side note, this solution is a cheap, extremely safe, and extremely effective broad spectrum topical antibiotic if you cut yourself while cloning.

To make your female beans, all you need to do is spray a bud or two (or an entire clone for a lot)if you want your female plant to make all female pollen. After about 2 weeks or so you will have a lot of male flowers that you can collect pollen from that has the female genetics. Simply either shake it on your other female plants for a lot of all female beans, or apply with a small paint brush for just a few beans. It is even OK to self pollinate the plant you are using! After 5 weeks you will have your beans that are 100% guaranteed to be all female! You can have a lot of fun making pure female only crosses of your favorite cannabis strains.

Hope this helps you keep making the world a greener place!
