During this grow I pollinated a bud site on my Canna-Cheese with some Livers Haze pollen from a reversal I did a while back.

I was hoping it would be the single bud site I pollinated that provided me with seed but it seems the pollen found its way across the plant, I can see maybe 12-20 seeds on various bud sites.

The picture at the very top has a seed poking out a little and you'll see she's still green.

How long does it usually take for seeds to be fully mature?

The plant itself is looking close to finishing up

The seeds will mature with the mother plant. Seeds from early fertilization events may mature before the flower is ready to harvest, but those that were set later may need to continue maturing while your buds mature. Ideally, remove any seeds that look like they might fall out when drying, but leave everything else in the buds during your drying and curing.

Good luck!

Do you have any specific goals for that cross?

@dr-jitter-bug appreciate the info mate.

My goal really is to have some more autos that contain a fair amount of cbd, but no special plans to do any real breeding, but if I see any special phenos then I might. 

Canna-Cheese is a 1:1 auto and a favourite of mine, plus hard to come by. 

On the other hand the Livers Haze auto is a f1 cross of hubbabubba haze (Bubble gum) and The livers, so I should get a fair bit of variation in my phenos that I'll come from the cross. 

I did pollinate quite early, say 2ish weeks into flower.

Well hopefully the ones that I can see are a good indication of when to chop.

Maybe another 2. 5 weeks or so?

@mix I thought it had failed to be honest, the pollen was 6 month old.

Hopefully I get a fair amount, but no to many lol, I do plan to smoke her once she's done.

Tbh I would chop when the plants done not when the seeds are ready.

you can’t over mature them.

glad it didn’t fail on ya bud that would of been disheartening now you will have something to play with 👍😝

@discobiscuitt 

agree with the above comments …

Id be harvesting as usual or later than usual…

the collected seeds is advised are dried for a couple of weeks if you’re to store them long term

Nice job DB 👍 

Time to pop some more beans 😗

@discobiscuitt Sounds like some fun material to play with. You should post notes on the phenos you find here! Interested to see what comes out.

As others say below - I'd wait a bit longer to chop. No worries about waiting too long for seeds, but too early could ruin them and your flower.

Thanks bros, I'll be patient, I've got my purple lemonade to keep me medicated until she's ready.

Proper nice parent plant though, good structure, doesn't mind cold, fat colorful nuggs and she smells like meaty pineapples.

The pollen donor plant was a funky girl too, grew very uniform and had high mold resistance, I grew it in a plastic green house during the summer, she held her own for a lot longer then I thought.
