    Thanks mate
    Yeah I'm mega happy. I have seeds to play with now.
    I have an experiment to try which will no doubt use a few seeds.

    I am growing in soil and reusing the old soil, so it's in my grow room in a large garden bag. Opened it the other day and there was a seedling in it, it had been growing in the barely damp soil, without light. The taproot was 4 inches long and about 3 mm thick, just there growing in the dark.
    My experiment will be to try and replicate it, to plant a seed in barely moist soil, keep in the dark and also place a barrier on top to prevent it from breaking the surface, to try and see if I can deliberately produce such a large taproot prior to turning the lights on and uncovering the seedling.

    Watch this space
    When you do things right, people wont be sure you've done anything at all.

    I'm having a break from growing for a while now the jars are full, but I can't wait to pop some of these beauties
    Great result mate and some good looking seeds as well

    This is true, all comes down to dominant and recessive traits. If females dominated then breeding would be easy unfortunately it is much more complicated.

    To prevent unwanted pollination of extra branches you should put a large brown paper bag (unwaxed) over the freshly pollinated branch and staple the bottom to create a shield thos will stop it from escaping. Keep it on for 5-7 days, then you can remove it without fear of pollinating other branches.

    Bit late for the op but may help any future researchers.

    I think the pollen was airborne when I was attempting the pollination using the brush Patrice, it certainly seems that way. Thanks for the tip though, next time I will do that
