Candylicious by Irie Genetics Reversal

Update:

Well I've moved the other female plant into the tent.

I've been watching the donor plant and it is growing slowly, I still haven't seen any balls growing yet, not sure what exactly is going on, and I know this can happen sometimes.. I'm going to spray a couple more times just to see if she will still reverse.

I have been having a tough time keeping the tent temp level as it is in my drying room and for some reason it just wants to stay cold. I'm attempting to fix this with a small heater, but might need to put up the larger tent to get it stabilized.

Ok.. another Update!

So persistence is the key! 🔑

Sprayed again this morning when lights were off, but I didn't look at them..

Tonight though I went up and watered them and had to pull out the loop and get a look around! Well, looks like we have a male forming! 🧐👏🏻

I'm not seeing too many balls but I know they are there so lets keep rolling baby!

Also, got the temp stabilized a bit better now with the little heater, haven't put them into the 2x4 yet, still not sure if I will do that.

However here are some pics!

Update:

went and looked at the plants tonight and I’m definitely seeing reversal so yea we are a go. 

also some of them are opening early which seems to happen, usually it isn’t producing pollen yet, but in my experience, male plants seem to have some that prematurely open in the beginning hahaha. 😂 

Oh yes, we have balls upon balls, now if that other plant will start flowering.. I should have put her in a bit sooner I think..

Get in John good way to preserve what you like. The first thing i do when this is legal here is make a shit load of seeds that i can stabilize and get just what i want then I'm golden. 

It’s been a couple days and the plants are coming along nicely. Lots of balls starting now and I’ve seen a couple start to open up just a bit. 

The female plant is really getting pistols going and should soon be nice and Pom Pom shaped ha. 

I might try to change out the light and get rid of the blurple light. 

Ok.. we are moving along nicely here.. I haven't really seen any pollen dropping, but usually on a reversal I don't as it doesn't produce pollen like a male plant does.

I got some more pics for ya and you can see in some of them that the "balls" have opened. I usually start looking at the female plant and watching the pistols around week 3 of them being in flower. We are getting close to that.

We are on day 26 since the first spray on the donor plant and about 14 days in on the female being in flower.

Today’s update:

well the donor plant is really getting bigger buds on it and a lot of the balls are opening up. 

not seeing pollen on the other plan I decided to do a little tap and rub 😉

man this is probably the most pollen from a donor plant I’ve seen. I think I’m going to try to collect some to dry and save for later. 

zoom in to see the pollen and you can also see the larger pieces. those are the inner parts of the male sacks  

A little check in:

I'm pretty positive we are making seeds. 

haven’t taken any close up pics yet as I want to make sure we can truly tell 😳😊

I did however clip some branches to take some female pollen from the donor plant. 
I’m going to let that branch dry and every so often to and tap it and use a wire to knock some balls off to get the pollen to drop. 

then I’m going to try to store it and give it a test on a bud on another plant just to make sure it is viable 

I’ve saved pollen from males before so just need to make sure this stuff is good 😂😂 then I can maybe cross it to something else or just brush on some buds to make more seeds without reversal 😎

seems I’ve already collected quite a bit  

here’s pics so far of that. 

Well took some pics tonight while watering. 

we are a month into the female seed plant flowering and I believe we have seeds starting. I’m thinking in about another week I will throw out the donor plant so that is out of the way and no more extra watering.
