valleylynn said:Warp, you can hand pollinate it. Very easy.


so Lynn, or anyone else, in the photo below.. I would do what to self pollinate? use a paint brush to transfer the yellow stuff to the "other female stuff" ...all of which I haven't quite figured out yet. or do I cut the pollen heads and store in a film container till the time is right? can anyone give me the low down on this or a link cus I can't seem to find the pertinent stuff. I definitely have a flower head coming soon..thanks

on another note....I did some transplanting and Ph adjusting... the kids were in basicaly straight peat...and that can't be good. so I did some rinky dink ph tests and adjustments with hydrated lime...eeek. I think were cool. if they can handle straight up peat then whats a little ph swing towards 7+? we will see. feeling pretty good about it though no biggie even if I have to retransplant, no one cares.
