Also does she have that piney loud almost sour chemical terp profile from the freak? My recent freak inbred harvest so pungent almost burns the nostrils haha
You sure are particular avout who talks about what…
Seems only logical to me…freakshow hybrid thread…somebody probably has seeds…
No harm in asking but dont upset the rabbit

Cool man looks pretty nice lite green color flower. Now when you breed auto x photo what is the result? Obviously hybrid but still need to initiate flower with dark cycle or does it vary plant to plant?
Fast version. 1-2 weeks early.
It needs 12/12 cycle to initiate flowering.
He runs a tight ship on here man haha… I brought up my freak show earlier and got spanked.

the beginning of a pheno hunt! It will be my next grow. I will be running 100 seeds and selected an auto flower line and a fast flower line. Just waiting for the beans to finish baking in the selected f1s

Hey @PsillyRabbit
Im not new to growing buuttt im absolutely clueless when it comes to breeding and cross breeding plants
Since this is a freakshow hybrid thread
Can i get a short version of the breeding plants procedure, for now…
…and for later, id love to learn more so i can hybridize these 2 freakshows i have

If both your parents have freak leaves the offspring will most likelyt have freak leaf.
freak crossed with non freak will need to go to f2 for selection
- Grow F1 Plants: Start by planting seeds from the F1 generation
- Identify Desired Traits: Look for plants showing the traits you want (auto-flowering, freaky leaves, etc.).
- Select Parents: Choose the best male and female plants from the F1 generation based on those traits.
- Pollinate: Allow your selected male to pollinate the female plants. Isolate the males early to prevent unwanted pollination.
- Harvest Seeds: Once pollinated females finish flowering, harvest the seeds.
- Grow F2 Generation: Plant the F2 seeds to see a wider variety of traits. This is where you’ll start seeing more genetic diversity, allowing you to select for specific traits.
- Select and Stabilize: Keep selecting plants with your desired traits across generations to stabilize the line (e.g., for autoflowering and freaky leaves).
Each generation gets you closer to stabilizing the traits you want, such as fast-flowering, auto, and freaky leaf characteristics.
theoretically-
- Auto + Freaky Leaf = 25%
- Auto + Normal Leaf = 25%
- Photoperiod + Freaky Leaf = 25%
- Photoperiod + Normal Leaf = 25%
In the case of
F1 Generation (Freakshow (ff) x Non-Freak (FF)):
- Genotypic Ratio: 100% Ff (heterozygous normal leaf)
- Phenotypic Ratio: 100% Normal Leaf
In the F1 generation, all offspring will have normal leaves because the normal leaf trait (F) is dominant over the recessive freaky leaf trait (f).
F2 Generation (F1 x F1 or Ff x Ff):
When you cross two F1 plants, the ratio follows Mendelian genetics for a recessive trait:
- Genotypic Ratio:
- FF (homozygous normal) = 25%
- Ff (heterozygous normal) = 50%
- ff (homozygous freaky leaf) = 25%
- Phenotypic Ratio:
- Normal Leaf (FF or Ff) = 75%
- Freaky Leaf (ff) = 25%
Summary:
F1 Generation:
- 100% Normal Leaf (Ff)
F2 Generation:
- 75% Normal Leaf (FF or Ff)
- 25% Freaky Leaf (ff)

Phhuuucccckkkkk yeessshhhh!!!
Sadly i missed it over my lunch break, i cant wait to read this later!!!
Seco dary question that im sure will be an easy answer…(i saw it mentioned)…
what is F1 AND F2??
i figures its probably equivalent to generation 1 and generation 2…
back to welding

So after reading…i may be incorrect with this assumption, am i currently on F3?
Started with bag seeds from 2010,planted 2020.
Found a plant i like(F1)and got lucky finding seeds.
Purple, huge kolas
Planted those seeds to harvest, found a few more seeds(F2)
Purple, great scrog, huge kolas
Planted those seeds and tending to that plant now (F3)
Purple, great scrog, fisty buds with middle finger size kolas
ORRRRRR
this batch of seeds will be my reliable (F1) bank

Assuming you used males and females from the same strain each generation you would be on f3.
If you cross it to freakshow you will back to f1

So where would mine be at?
Last summer I had that PE male. This summer. I used the Jr Mint Lemoncello x PE, that was the freakshow looking male. the Cape Goat stuff.
Hit my other plants, which are also PE crosses from that same male. There’s like 7 of them.
So… 25% fern leaf? or a bit higher cuz it’s daddy’s PE family crossed?

i would say you have 7 f1 crosses
if those 7 crosses got hit with the same male as the plant they came out of they are BX1

Heeyyy @PsillyRabbit can i post my generic freakshow update here or not?
They just havent been hybridized yet
They got hit with a sibling plant. like. a half-brother.
I figure the genetics are gonna be really close, between the Junior Mints and the Pineapple Express for those leaf traits. Pineapple Chunk showed a diff leaf variation.
It’ll be fun to phenohunt these out. I had to chop some tops from budrot. had a power outage the other day. Picked out like 1,000 seeds already. They all look healthy & mature.

i dont know why i said “the same male” even crossed back to its sibling would be a bx
If your Jr Mint x PE male carries one copy of the recessive freak gene, you’d expect about 25% of the offspring to display the freaky leaf trait in an F1.
If there’s any stacking of the recessive gene from the PE family crosses, the chance could be more than 25%.
