Next seeds launched, I’ve to stop at one point. Maybe i will add some sensi star tommorow, just to have a full tray for the fun of the completion. Cross the fingers for me, they are pretty much old and in bad state.
The need for seeds is mostly if something attract you, or if it’s heavily in the color you’re searching. The plan look clear in your head, and you known how to use STS. Everything is there to offer you the experience you searching.
I will buy a Shiva Shanti II, and sog it from seeds very dense (after the initial fast repro on two or three pairing) like a maniac to make it highly destructive and tasty. More easy, more fast, more strong, more vigorous, more options, no useless genetic maintenance. This strain or any other cheap classic able to make a dense SOG. But it’s just me ^^
Punks are the soul of the world ^^
Not really this kind of club in EU, almost all social classes are represented. Reliable, safe and constant hands are too rares to be elitist. This is not a game where you can hit&run also, it imply a lot of things here.
A mutation can express a visible trait, an invisible trait, stay latent … it’s not so binary. If you have the rosetta stone of this leaf shape, just rush then.
I will not speak for the others but for me at least, no. I’m just reading the plants constantly, and i adapt what they say to my goals. Sometimes even at the last minutes of the dead line ^^ Sometimes also they just say nothing, and it become something to take in count.
Just the concept of removing arbitrary a whole expression of the life, in the life itself is disturbing for me ^^
But it permit to introduce quickly a funny detail i like with cannabis : the males carry the whole datas for the male’s progeny and the female’s progeny. Even those not sexually linked. The female, not ^^ Their DNA is partial.
In humans it’s the reverse, the male’s DNA is partial ^^ Fast digression for the fun of this analogy.
My reform of your sentence in a “once-in-a-whole-line female” was more to express how look like a long term hunt among many strains explored, many parralel line of the same strain explored and so on … an infinite loop of sweet memories.
And it’s not so complicated to drive, even with a limited space. With a good planning, a structured methodology and a good density … you can screen a lot. And it can be as ghetto than this …
… to screen thousands. Let’s not make it a super power only able to be piloted by the choosen ones ^^ Everyone enough crazy in love of this plant can do it in almost all conditions, “famous breeder” or not.
Pretty much yes, if the averages of the next generation is not increasing then the selection was technically failed. Now if the super-pheno found in this generation was the ultimate goal to close the project, it’s a success. But you know, one time you see it’s possible to generate this pheno … it’s hard to don’t search what the fuck you missed to make them all like this ^^
They don’t know what they miss then ^^ The day they will realize it, be ready and take your cut 
My very first pure sativa was acclimatized to alps peaks directly, in guerrilla growing. She often finished the feets in the snow. You can be amazed on how they can perform in nordic lattitudes one time they have understood wtf was going on.
Sometimes it’s better to give up and to switch on another line, but yes with enough time and constancy almost everything is possible with this annual and it never stop to amaze me.
I’ve made the necessary to no longer have to self specimens, so i just don’t ^^
It’s more to understand the genesis of one expression i’m facing, and for this I have to understand how it segregate more than how I can maintain it. It’s like diving in the guts of the dynamics of the strain, it’s fascinating even if you find nothing. It’s always something to use later for a similar case or pattern.
Not to isolate but to generate, and more tailored if possible of course ^^
You can also operate multiple parallel backcrosses, generate your own freakshow … there is many ways. Now it’s really not in my interests in breeding, better to shoot a contact to those involved in these projects. Wallyduck is here i saw lastly, OG still OG ;o)
Both equally frosty : damn no.
Both equally smelly : hell no.
Both good growth traits : yes, even in the resistances, but totally opposites in all.
Same internodal space : hell no.
Same flower density : no way ^^
It’s also why i repeat in loop all over OG that knowing its classics is very important.
Both are pretty much stable and very predictable in outcrosses, what is making them uniques is the addition of all their specificities and how distant they are from each other for the said specificities.
No but your interest is just not there, what’s wrong with that. Nothing. We have all our own priorities.
I don’t say no to a good blunt of SK#1 x WW by the way, it’s the kind of funky ambivalent smoke i’m liking ^^ Let’s call it “pre-60 SK#51 Area nobody cut x Super White Berner original” to push the youth to taste it.
Totally the game i like to play ^^ Taking the time to prepare the right genetic materials, then shock them like a particle collider. Hell yeah. But it’s not lottery, it’s years. It’s just that i don’t give a damn fuck about the colors in general, at all.
The error was to don’t screen your stuff before making the hybrid, because the goal was the same : reducing the herm dynamic. Better to screen before a F1 in general.
Having screened the Sumatra for others. Even if it’s an old fashioned etiquette, i still believe in its proven utility today.
I’ve posted some walls of texte there too, but the concept is clearly exposed.
Yes a few that i can’t really enumerate on the fly, you can find in the Vic High topic a bunch of detailed leads expanding a bit more the problematic.
On the inbreeding depression, there is no limit but the skills. What we call in our stoned world the “inbreeding depression” is mostly an human problematic ignoring totally by example the industry of hemp (the real one) that don’t pass its time to debate on who have the real cut to sell in no stabilized seeds version ^^ .
But it’s a Darwinian funnel, the more you push the generation … the more you have to be ready and able to set safe strategies and accurate pheno tracking. Errors are far more dramatic with a two digits IBL than with a cascading poly-hybrid F1, the margin is mechanically more tight.
Breeder Steve disagree by known facts (releases), that i had the opportunity to inbred during two decades in bonus ^^ And i’m at the point do it again for the fun by the magic of OG. It’s really a mysterious place where strings theories sometimes apply 
The reverse, the most you can.
Breeding eat a shit ton of seeds. So first establish a strategy that feed the ogre.
Second, evaluate what the fuck is going on with the purple coloration : make a ratio with enough plants (50 at least, that you can multiply by two to make a %). You’re not in the obligation to launch 50 at a time, you can launch multiple batchs of 10 (by example). It’s just more long.
Why not just cull early everything not purple simply. Do you figure out how many seedling to kill you can fit in your space ? I don’t think ^^ Screen the shit out lol, take notes and make ratios. So you can evaluate first if the said cross is worst the ride (over 50% purple) or just a bad choice of genetic material (below 50%).
It will be a good start ^^ Unleash the hell, stop your brain’s juice.
