Agronomist,
So every pod I pulled of the revered lavender martini would have a tiny spec of dust (pollen) come out so I thought it’s just not happening with this one well I think I was wrong I think I was just getting to them to late I had a few plants sitting around it in the flower area and they are all making seeds so looks like she dropped pollen after all

That's the trick, getting the sacks at the right time. If they're yellow and dried out looking it's too late so not much pollen. You wanna get them just as they're starting to open a little. It's a pain in the ass. That is what I had to do with sato, just not a good giver. Now the lvtk was more like a male and gave up pollen easily.

Knock on wood you get more seeds than you thought! Cheers buddy

Yea I thought I’d be able to tell based of my experience with males but it just acted differently... you live and learn.
there will definitely be more seeds than I was going for imo since I was only going to hit a few plants in that area not all and I have some regs baking in the oven too

What are your thoughts of withholding the males 2 - 3 weeks from the start of the flowering cycle? This would allow the females to be more fully developed before receiving the pollen?

I always hold known males for regs 10 days behind females for that reason, and it works well - males most always are ready to splooge before girls are ready if I don't. I tried the same with reversed females, and the pollen wasn't ready before the target clones were too far along to mate. I don't have enough experience to know if that's the norm, but I won't do it for reversed dust again.

That's gorgeous bro, and the smell sounds excellent. Looks like it will put out decent weight too. I'll be stoked to hear how she taste.

I still have some of those original beans of grape sato I'm hoping to hunt through and f2. Especially now! Great job as always man

I agree with amos, for males I like the to be a little further along and i may throw reversed girl in a few days earlier. Last run with lvtk pollen I collected pollen a couple weeks ahead of time.
