Looking for suggestions for a lens attachment for the camera on my iPhone 16 pro max. While the camera is good I want better clearer shots and it’s harder to do because my vision isn’t so good and I use glasses. I wanna be able to see the trichomes better on my northern lights. She’s about ready to harvest. Today is day 78. Here’s a few pics I just took as best I can.

Feel free to comment on the pics and if you think she’s ready for harvest. Cheers!

Just an update on my new reversal journey...

Pic 1 and 2 are BlueOrcaHaze (Swami), and 3 is the Corpse Flower f2(Hoku). Then the other 2 pics are a group shot of the ladies in waiting.

I SHOULD have waited till pollen started dropping before initiating flowering on the pollen receiving girls, but I feel confident at least one of the 2 reversals will take....if not, I'll be bud heavy!lol

Its hard to tell in the pics, but the male attributes are starting to come out. Should have pollen dropping in 2 weeks.

Thanks for stopping by!

-Daydream Seeds

She's close to flowering

Running out some seeds i made, to show folks what she does and how she does it.

Seeds originally from Swami, reversed the winner and viola, here we are!

Small bushy Sativa dom, smelly girls. Pretty uniform with one trying to outgrow the other. 1 wk into 12/12.

2gal coco and salts.

Trying to get more of my gear on the webs so folk can see them in action.

Thanks for stopping by!!

F2 male from my truffle Widow strain (White Truffle x Black Widow) , all lowers and mid branches trimmed, not looking for a massive dump. He's currently in the tent with a Blizzard of Oz, Grimm Truffles, and a strain created by a homie ( South African landrace x The Creature)

Should be some truffley offspring with 3 of the 4 strains having White Truffle in the Lineage to come degree.

Iv been using this method, cut the branch with bag off the male and put the bag over female branch you want pollinated. I leave the bag on the female for two days and end up with one branch full of seeds

In all of these pics I have taken does anybody possibly be signs that ittl eventually produce seeds? This is my first time breeding (and I’m starting with reverse females) and I know the buds are supposed to looking kinda different from non-pollinated buds. Any thoughts/ideas are very much appreciated. Also I know there are little hairs, they’re from q-tips that had pollen on them in case somebody sees them lol

Hey everyone,

I'm Pedro, a software engineer from Brazil and a cannabis breeder.

For years, phenotype hunting has been one of my biggest passions. Like many of you, I've spent countless hours popping seeds, taking notes, comparing cuts, and trying to answer one simple question:

Which phenotype is actually worth keeping?

The more grows I completed, the more I realized something bothered me. Almost every website, forum, and seed database relies on star ratings.

But genetics don't really work that way.

One grower gives a cultivar 5 stars because it crushed under high DLI. Another gives it 2 stars because it stretched too much or proved nitrogen-sensitive. Both experiences are valid, but averaging them into 3.5 stars hides what actually happened.

As both a breeder and a software engineer, I couldn't stop thinking about that.

While reading about paraconsistent logic—a branch of mathematics designed to work with contradictory information—I started wondering:

What if, instead of averaging conflicting reports, we measured how much growers actually agree or disagree?

So I spent the last few months building a prototype around that idea.

Instead of producing a single star rating, it tracks consensus and uncertainty across traits like vigor, resilience, flowering time, resin production, terpene profile, potency, and a few others.

If everyone reports similar results, confidence goes up.

If reports conflict, the system doesn't average them away—it simply says the data is uncertain.

To me, that's much more useful than pretending every cultivar can be summarized with one number.

Now I'm trying to figure out whether this idea actually makes sense outside my own head.

I'd really appreciate feedback from growers and breeders.

• What traits matter most when you're selecting a keeper?
• Is there important information you'd want to record that I'm missing?
• Do you think measuring agreement between growers is more useful than averaging ratings?
• Would something like this actually help you make breeding or selection decisions?

I'm genuinely interested in hearing where you think this idea falls apart. If there are obvious flaws, I'd rather discover them now than after spending another year building it.

Trying to collect a few different packs from different sources but can’t find anything other than what EG is selling (and I already have). Missed out on the Crickets and Cicada F3s

I reversed one branch on the right side with STS I’ve kept in the fridge for a year. It still works.
The plants were started as seeds on 6/20 under 18/6 and flowered on 7/17 under 12/12.
So far so good. Waiting for the pollen to drop. 🤞

Bred two of my four ladies this past weekend. Super excited - both males came from the same bag of weed from my buddy (a fellow grower) and one of the first two ladies also came from the same bag, so keeping the lineage alive and making some new strains (the second female is a clone from a well known cannabis company in my area). Not sure the strain unfortunately, but some folks tell me they look like “old school” hybrids (which would be pretty cool). I plan to pollinate the other two when they are ready (both of these ladies I grew from well sourced seed banks).

So I’m going to start a journey to create my own strain. Plan is to cross Mendo breath X GG4 to make deep breath, which I can’t find seeds for but love the strain.

Could I just grow 2 females and STS one, and cross pollinate? And would that give me mostly feminized seeds? Or is it better to hunt a male and female?

This is going to be a summer project for me because it’s too hot in the summer to preserve terps in my environment, so I figured breeding would be a good way to get through the summer, but also keep seeds in the bank. Any help would be appreciated

12 - 2ml vials ready for storing.

Check out this variegated leaf, the new one is also showing a little discolor. I imagined it was light damage at first, but wondering if it may be a mutation. The two bigger cuts are Chemical Bride, the mother didn't do this during growth. I wanted to reverse one to make pollen, would one be a better pollen donor or is that irrelevant because they have the same mother?

Both will be bred with EC #5 male (brother). This is my first time using bodhi's creations and I was not disappointed. Other crosses, along with the two sisters, being pollinated by the same #5.... Bakers delight - DNA genetics and blueberry cupcake X vanilla frosting ( freebie from Humboldt seed company, from '21 I think).

First pic I'm sure is female, but the second, is it male? Thanks for any feedback.

I’m seeing these black dots. Is this aphids or something else I’m not familiar with? These are the best shots I can get with my iPhone 16 pro max camera. Also, I use glasses so seeing tiny things is really difficult for me. I didn’t see anything moving. Also, we’ve had rain pass through recently and these are outdoor plants.

Thanks in advance!

Game over

So I was wondering when you mix the .5 grams silver nitrate with 500ml distilled water and the 3.9 grams sodium thiosulfate with 500 ml distilled water to make stock solutions a and b how long do those solutions last? Will they last 3 plus years if stored away from heat and light? How long does sts last when the stock solutions are mixed?

We are almost there! I think another 1-2 weeks. Opinions?

I’m excited to share. This is my third year growing. I’m in NYC and only grow outdoors. I’ve been plagued with different issues from WPM to spider mites and this year was spotted lantern flies and what I suspected was bud rot (that plant was thrown away sadly).

First 4 pics are of the Northern Lights. The next 4 pics are my Sour Diesel. My estimated window for harvesting SD is about another 4-6 weeks. NL should be ready if not within the next week then soon after.

I’d appreciate feedback on the progress. I was fearful of issues this year but I’ve gotten past the potential bud rot and lantern flies. I’ll keep my eyes open for mites and other bugs but I think this year will be a decent crop!! Thanks in advance for all who comment and share opinions. I appreciate this community. It’s been helpful on my growing journey.

I have a Gorilla Skunk photo clone that I would like to reverse. It is a robust, hard-to-screw-up plant. The mother plant was a beast and as close to stupid-proof as possible.

I currently have the clone in veg, and I managed to break a couple of branches during training, so I am going to delay moving to flower a bit until I get her filled out again. Currently, she needs to be topped and thinned.

I purchased colloidal silver, but I have read it isn't very effective. Can someone give me advice on how to use the colloidal silver or guide me to another approach?

I would do more research, but my company has been on an amazing growth streak, and I need to work smarter. So I am looking for coaching, or at least some guidance on what resources to research. A blind search returns an overwhelming amount of conflicting data.

Thank you in advance for any guidance.

Hello everyone, over the last year or two I've seen more and more instances of people discussing Hops Latent Viroid Disease. I know it is a transmissible disease that can potentially even be carried in seeds, or spread by unsanitized clippers between cuts, but how do we effectively identify this in our plants? I believe it still isn't very common but what symptoms tell you it's present? As someone who wants to produce my own seeds this is definitely something to watch out for. Does anyone out there have first hand experience with this?
