Lightbulb We all have Mothers. But does anyone have Fathers?

I know males in veg will produce preflowers eventually, which will create pollen. But can you just keep snipping off the preflowers, which would give you a father plant. Has anyone done this? Is it possible?

I'm pretty sure that many breeders maintain stud males. Bodhi & RD come to mind.

I don't pretend to know the technical details.

they dont always go into flower. stress will initiate it but unless its an auto you can keep males safely. i hold a bunch of them. for a long time.

the quick onset of sex is good as it tells you which plants trigger quickly. for developing fast finishing outdoor strains this is crucial.

Pump and dump for me, with natural males.... I would have to have a LOT more space to save some studs. I would rather keep around females I like and reverse them for pollen.

i invested in a small seperate environment for my males. seems to do the trick. isolation is key IMO.
