Making seed

[Rwise]

Time to move to something more worthy of spending money on, so I am gathering seed and about to start making a few crosses of my own. First up is BB3 X GG4, with the BB3 being a true male, I have heard good things on this cross. I think I can fit 6 females and a male to the side in the room (under the stairs). With that I could be making 6 different hybrids from the BB3 male.
Here is what I have to work with
BB3 (reg), GG4, Black Domina, Blue Dream, Alaskan Purple, GSC, Mazar I Shariff (landrace), Shock Trauma (reg), Sour Tangie, Dresden Green Diamond, Piebert(reg, landrace), Super Skunk Kush, Santa Marta Colombian Gold (reg, landrace), Tajikastani Hash Plant (reg, landrace), (pink something I forgot it was on sale, reg) and WW. Unless otherwise note they are fem seed or clones.
So whats your thoughts here? Give me some input on what you think would make great plants!
Edit Pink well, how about Purple Ice,/EDIT

A gg4 xblue dream would be something I'd pay money for! But I guess that would be hard to do with 2 females lol

When I get seed all I would ask from a GWE friend is exchange, send me something I dont have, and I'll send what you want, fair enuf?
Blue Gorilla sounds nice! (if the name is not already in use!) with what I have this would be feminized.

 

[SirSmksAlot]

That sounds more than fair.

I’m all in for an exchange of fem seed of Santa Marta Columbian Gold (reg land race). I have Sundance Kid regular seeds (boys and girls mixed) from Green Point Seeds. It’s a cross of Girl Scout Cookies bred to the Pink Panties phenotype (aka Sunset Sherbet) then crossed to the Star Dog male. Known for sweet berry aroma, good yields, it’s a hybrid with a medium to tall finishing height and it’s a photosensitive. Let me know what you’re thinkin. Thx Korn

This will be down the road a bit, but is on the to do list!

The GG4 will be here by Friday and will be sprouted as soon as it gets here! Then to decide what else goes in the first run.
EDIT Would it be worth while to put a female BB3 in and make BB3 X BB3? /EDIT

I thought I posted on this yesterday but I guess I left the page without hitting the button.

These would be my top 6 using a BB3 stud -
BB3 x GG4
BB3 x BB3
BB3 x Sour Tangie
BB3 x SMCG
BB3 x Blue Dream
BB3 x Piebert

Glue Dream, Blue's Glues, Bloogaloo

This is pretty fun when you're baked.

SirSmksAlot well sorta hehe

 

[Rwise]

Those are all good projects! BB3 X Piebert should make a very large heavy plant, and X SMCG should give up lots of flavor/aroma. And if the SMCG cross works well I may just have to do SMCG X BB3, then cross the two F1s. The same with others that turn out well.
Seed order should be in today, GG and Purple Ice (Rusty Glue for a friend), I'll get a clone of the RG.

 

[Rwise]

I am trying to talk a friend into helping with my project, here is what I am asking him to do (he does not do WWW)
Rusty Glue X Rusty Glue
Rusty Glue X GG4
Rusty Glue X BB3
Rusty Glue X Piebert
Also take clones from the RGs both a male and a female for future use
I will supply all the seed and clones to do this, and of course he gets the smoke.

My GG4 is in soil!

 

[FunkyButtLovin]

Tell him if he gets onboard I'll give him free Wedding Cake fems to work with as well.

I have a question for all y'all. I am getting closer to starting the seed run (soon as the remaining plants are ready) and have an odd question for you. If I let these girls set on seed and get it started then flip the lights back to 16/8s and reveg them (to make clones from the new growth) with seed set, how bad would this be for the seed genetics? Would it pass on or create something bad?
I have a Piebert male now under 24/0 to keep him under control until I am ready for him.

 

[Rwise]

I'll let him know, but with all this virus scare going around, I aint getting out much!

 

[Korn]

I believe once the seed has set the genetics will not change no matter what you do with the photoperiod. As far as the seeds maturing, I would suggest, after pollination, to let the seeds begin to develop for a month under the 12/12. Then if you want to reveg the seeded mother, I would gradually increase the photoperiod, over the next month until you reach the 16/8 that and you want. That should give the seeds a chance to develop some before the reveging begins. Also, I’d like to see a cross between the SMCG x Sour Tangie and the SMCG x Blue Dream. Looking for a big, productive Sativa dominant plant with better disease and heat tolerance.

 

[FunkyButtLovin]

I've never tried that and I don't think I've heard of anyone trying it. I'm not sure how it would turn out.

 

[Korn]

My take is that a 12/12 photoperiod (for plants that are sensitive to photoperiod) will induce the physiological changes that lead to flowering. Once the sexually mature flowers are pollinated and an embryonic seed begins developing I don’t see any reason that those seeds will cease to mature just because the photoperiod is increasing. As long as the plants are healthy and the seeds don’t abort I believe you will get viable seeds, especially if you are already one month into the seed development stage before increasing the photoperiod. Anyone else have any thoughts or experiences with doing this?

The clones, also more being made of the GSC for my Nephew and his wife.

These are from seed, its going to be a good year yet!
