Thanks for the detailed response. One thing to remember is that all your equipment will be exposed to that pollen. I've got a separate set of fans I only use for when I know I'll have pollen in the tent. I've found that it's impossible to get most fans perfectly clean without risking shorting them out so I play it extra safe by removing them too. Finding out you missed some pollen a couple weeks too late sucks......... A lot.

Anyway what's the story with these genetics? Are you back crossing or pollinating multiple plants? I'd love to know more.

Omega Genetix (it's with an X so it's edgy) Brazilian Purple Kush. It's labeled as an "adult novelty souvenir" and has a warning to not germinate without legal authority. I think it's just OmegaGenetix.com but I don't want that to be misconstrued as an endorsement, and even if it was you shouldn't listen to me. Their STS is quality though 🤷‍♂️

Legal situation, currently, is that any cannabis plant tissue that tests below the thc marker is legally hemp.

Meaning any seed and veg clone of a cannabis species is, legally, a hemp plant, until it flowers and begins to produce thc.

It is a similar loophole that mushroom growers have, where spores of psilocybin-producing fungi technically do not yet have psilocybin in them, and thus are legal to own and sell.

As I understand it, this is the federal stance in the US for cannabis, as I know official licensed farms who are legally selling "hemp" clones of known weed strains across state lines. Please double check your laws before taking this as gospel, as I dont actually directly deal with sales so I dont need to know the strict legal details.

I was shocked too lmfao but yeah it's like Purple Brazilian or something. If I can find the packaging I'll send you their website, I remember it being sketchy as fuck.

I'm already replacing a bunch of stuff on my next grow (any recommendation for an oscillating fan?), so hopefully I'll be alright 🤞

These are Black Widows from ILGM, which I think technically makes this piracy 😬 If this experiment works out I'd like to try crossing, but this is just 4 plants- two other Widows and a random bagseed. The bagseed was out of some straight fucking 🔥🔥 so I'm expecting good things out of those seeds but we'll see!

That’s a lot of effort considering the pollen wouldn’t be viable after 2 weeks of being exposed to normal temperatures and air.
