Revegging a pollinated female

[Serrated edge]

Hey kata,

Glad to see your topic back on track.

Hello again. I got my camera to work again so decided it was time to update piccies. These are before and after trimming some of the burnt leaves.

 

Then we have a close-up of some of the new spiral leaves. I wonder if this is what Naked Monk was referring to as "freakish".

So I've decided she is wholly into vegetative growth now and took eight cuttings. I took them all from the bottom so you hardly notice she's missing them, and there's at least twenty more tips I could take a clone from. Now it's just a matter of waiting to see what happens with the seeds.

Just a added thought, Kataclismic. It's entirely up to you, but have you considered to getting those clones into a mini green house. I've found it increases my chances of the clones taking for the first couple of weeks. Just giving the clones a light spray twice a day, and water the medium when necessary. If the nights are still cool, bring the whole lot in of a night time and put them back out each morning.

 

Better still, If you do have a grow room set them up in there. But if the room can't generate enough heat for condensation to form within a mini green house you may have to get a heat pad to place under the tray. The do make heat pads for these greenhouses, but if you can't source one locally, you could also try a Home Brew supply shop as they also have a similar heat pad that they use for the fermentation process of making beer. From memory, they operate at a similar temperature.

 

Bunnings have these for as little as $10 each.

I have a walk-in GH. Been averaging about 84% relative humidity most days but when the rain comes it's more like 93-97%. I've one plant that is currently in quarantine because it contracted a leaf fungus due to too much humidity so I'm still fine tuning it.    It's all a bit of trial and error. Those mini greenhouses are wonderful little contraptions!

It's a bit fuzzy, I really don't know what I'm looking at. I was thinking it does look like a female but then I looked at it a bit more. It might be a bit early to tell but a cleaner picture might help.

Only three of my cuttings took hold. I don't know if it is the plant or my conditions but she's obviously a slow grower and in stages of transition (and stress) so no surprises. She's also producing three-fingered leaves now.

 

I pulled one of the pods from the bottom and opened it up to find a very pale seed. Doesn't mean it isn't viable but I think it does indicate that they have stopped maturing. 

 

Here's a picture of a flowering beauty just for the eye-candy:

Either by natural processes or via my handling it would seem that she has released some of her seeds and just to verify viability, a couple have sprouted.
