I do mix with a touch of flour, which I have pre baked at 200 degrees to make it extremely dry. But before that I will put the pollen in a small jar without a lid inside a much larger jar nestled in some desiccant. So the desiccant isn't actually touching the pollen. Let me know if that does not make sense. Rice might work but probably not very well, I think if you really bake it dry at 200°. Much better are the desiccant balls you can buy online. They change color when absorbing humidity + can be reused by baking in the oven. Those little pouches that come in seaweed packages and the like are not good enough. After it sits in the small jar inside the larger sealed jar resting on desiccant for several days. I will then add the dried flour, put into smaller containers so I have several and don't have to open one container every time, + then label it, date it, seal it up and freeze it. When you pull it out of the freezer, just like when you're pulling seeds out of the freezer, before you open the jar, you will want to let it come to room temperature. That will help reduce any introduction of moisture that might occur from condensation.

Wish me luck 🤞🏾

Nice! Which are you going to reverse?

 

[Wayzee]

I'm thinking Durban poison.

 

[ductwizard]

i have a durban poison auto going outside, never tried it, cant wait

 

[Wayzee]

It's a great day time smoke, good for getting shit done.

Bout a week since germination and unfortunately the only ones that didn't germinate properly was the Durban poison (now I know why they threw Ina extra bean of dp) they all split but that's as far as the dp's went. Oh well, maybe try breeding that into the mix another time.
Think now I'm going to reverse a Moby and a NL.And pollinate a branch on each plant with each lot of pollen. just been trying to work out the time frames of what to start flowering/spraying when..

 

[Wayzee]

Ok so I'm thinking about doing this if it makes any sense to anyone but myself. Am I being too ambitious? Can anyone seen any problems with this idea?

 

[Franklin]

Pretty ambitious for your first go but definitely doable if you have two separate spaces. You'll want to know which varieties pollinate which others do that's out the window if you do an open pollination. Definitely possible to do just one branch of each but as I said your reversed plants will need a separate space and you'll need to be really really cautious about cross pollination. This can be extremely difficult as pollen gets everywhere and you might end up in a situation where you think you're being careful yet your plants are filled with seeds even where you didn't intend and then your not sure which is which. For your first run it might be easiest to just reverse one plant or grow three and start reversing all three in case one or two don't reverse and then you can pick the best growing and destroy the rest.

Also I have some Aunt Ginny enjoyed pollen I can send you, it's probably still viable but it's an autoflower and mixing the two can get generally problematic down the line (trust me).

I'm just remembering. I also have some photo period pollen that someone gave me that I'm happy to send, it might not be viable anymore. I don't remember how old it is. I'm also not sure if it's feminized but I can check my records.

Yea I see what you mean, I'll just go with reversing 1 that will still give me a variety of crosses. i pm you about the pollen. Cheers man.
