I'm learning all the time, including from this post! Danks :)
One thing I do happen know about wind pollination of cannabis, is that it can occur even over large distances. Also, I know that one male can potentially pollinate millions of females. Sometimes, that's a problem (for example when trying to grow high quality bud without seeds, or when breeding plants). Even indoor males can pollinate far-away gardens because the pollen is microscopic, and travels really well. Great in nature, but bad in urban growing conditions! Around here (Vancouver BC), you can get beat up (or worse) for having a male plant outside while flowering. A lot of people's operations can be ruined by a single male being allowed to go into flower and spread its pollen. So my tip to other growers is: if you live around other people who might also be growing, remember to be extremely careful your pollen doesn't escape or get on your clothing etc.
Yeah totally! My neighbors actually have plants out, so I will keep my make quarnateed upstairs behind closed doors. I will also keep the female up there for a week, just to try to limit the pollen escaping. For I also got some females outside that I want to remain seedless.
The poor males...... so unwanted, and considered dangerous around females.... must be all that toxic masculinity I keep getting warned about by Gilette and FaceBook etc... lol
LOL! If only we could feminize them hahaha
Although we love to rep women as much as cannabis, please let people be who they are, including boys be boys! Very cute puns though it cracked me up. It's weird to see ads about Toxic Masculinity all over the lower mainland...some strange social engineering going on these days along with genetic engineering :O
Yeah as I get older, these ads i see for pointless shit, is very disturbing. Like why would a corporation really care about my poop? Very bizarre times we live in i suppose.
Yeah one day I thought up a way the gov could combat weed it they wanted to eradicate it just crop dust with hemp or cbd pollen every month or so! lol all the herbs would just turn to seed that season and the price would spike! Anyone growing underground would rule! Hope nothing like that ever happens, but we did just exit the “War in Drugs” surprised Ronald Reagan never thought if that? Remember those commercials “ This is your brain, This is your Brain on Drugs” The old fried egg commercial! Cool post!
Damn to ruins whole crop is sinsemilla with make pollen! That’s so crazy it would work. Good thing our government our idiots.
