Did I begin flowering my males to late...

[gj4315]

I usually begin flowering my males after I begin flowering my femals. I am currently flowering a male Bog Sourbubble BX3 to pollenate female Juliet (2 Weeks Flowering) Original Misty (3 Weeks Flowering) and Sage n Sour (3 Weeks Flowering).

How long does it take seeds to mature once the females have been pollenated?

6 weeks after being exposed to the male

Seeds usually take 4 weeks to mature. Then just leave them in until the buds are completely dry. They will continue to mature during drying.

seeds usually take four to five weeks to completely form and ripen. I usually flower my males a bit early and collect pollen to spread as the buds are ready. I also tend to favor earlier pollenation over later.

Thanks for the feedback. I may have to store some pollen and re-veg the plants that I do not have any more seeds to reproduce. Better yet, I will use the clones in the closet...stupid me.

how mature do the females need to be before pollinating. I have some bogbubble and wonderfuck I would like to cross with some pine tar kush pollen. Just started 12/12 yesterday so I know I can't do it yet but when?

when pollen is being dropped, and white pistils emerge from calyx, seeds are ready to be made...

what you can do is take some clones(the more you take the more possible beans you can make) about 4 weeks into flower. Make sure the clones have some buds forming. Throw them in cups of water with something to hold them up and off the sides of the glass/plastic like a piece of posterboard or styrofoam(theres a million things you can use). when they start showing roots dust them up good. You can also clone with whatever method you feel comfortable. Then let them go until they basically drop out. The calyx will dry up. This way you will have a few dozen seeds to play with while you are waiting to do a full on bean run next time around.
