Early in flowering, say right after sexing? Or do you wait until the buds get bigger, say halfway through?

Have found you can dust the mainstem preflowers as soon as hairs are present and have 20 - 30 viable seed 30 - 35 days later with no loss of yield.

Can speed things up a lot as a fast test cross , the mother is finishing whilst the progeny is in mid flower makeing comparisons easier.

i know what your sayin! the preflower seed sacks are small, and remain close to the main stem. nice little groups with just a few seeds in each. I'm makin some of those!
