I used to grow a lot as a hobby, stopped about 5 years ago out of paranoia. Recently got my medical card/cultivation license, dug my equipment out of storage (plus bought a lot more) and am a little over a month back in. Its great to be able to do this legally now.
The feminized seeds I had saved all these years are a mystery, I created them myself using colloidal silver on a female AK47-related plant to produce pollen sacks but I don't remember the exact strain, only that it was part AK47. I used this pollen to knock up a female indica plant that I recall even less about, only that it had an extremely fruity smell and put everyone who tried it on their ass.
So far the offspring of these two plants are growing well after a rough beginning. I grow in 100% coco coir because I like the benefits of both hydro and soil, but it took me a couple weeks to get my nutrients/environment in check. I know they have some spotty leaves but they look a LOT better than they did a week ago so I think I'm finally honed in.
I know I should probably wait until the end product to come up with a name but wanted to gauge CP's interest at naming rights first.

You said it. I wouldn't name anything other than a number until it is has been grown out, dried and cured then sampled. No offense, but they might be junk. If you have grown in the past then you know true keepers aren't a guarantee.
Do you have any concern over using feminized genetics in it's lineage and possibly having a higher percentage of hermaphrodites with those seeds you are using?
But good for you chucking some pollen. Need more pollen chuckers out there. [Reply]

I'm aware of the risks, just thought it'd be a fun thread. I've never had a plant herm on me, including the parents of these but obviously that's no guarantee. If these suck I have plenty other seeds from different breeders and will definitely be crossing some more strains in the future. I just wanted to try these first since they are my own that I never got around to before. [Reply]
Blasphemy. Cant name anything after our Savior. If he names it after PMII then its pretty much a guarantee itll fall short unless its the best weed ever. Expectations wil be too high and it will be crushed by the pressure of trying to be the best. [Reply]
When its finished, if after smoking I become extremely depressed with the urge to bitch about everything imaginable that is for sure what I'll name it. [Reply]
