Here are some pix of the last males i have used for line breeding Mountain High Haze and crossing it to Special k , they were selected out of 40 beans ... , all 3 were resinated , but one freaked out in late flowering and pumped out resin like mad

have a nice day

Some lovely males. I like to see pics of males as most people completely ignore them. Nice to see someone doing proper stress testing to. It takes me a year to find a good male usually, or rather what I think is a good male, after initial sexing I clone then then subject them to a battery of stress tests then the ones that pass are crossed to 2 or 3 proven stable female clones I maintain and by that point, usually a year has passed from when I germed the seed the male came from. It takes another year to grow to the test batches of his progeny to assess what traits he passed on. It's a slow laborious process but you have to do it properly as male selection is difficult indeed.

Here's the latest candidate to enter bootcamp, already just after having being sexed there are visible trichomes, I have a good feeling about this one.

Fj,
I keep looking for the perfect "bull" to service my "herd" but can't seem to find him. Wish I could find some quality sires like you have here.
