Great tutorial, it inspired me to give breeding a shot. I got a female in a batch of bagseed that showed some very interesting leaf patterns


And crossed it with a male that i pulled and transplanted to anoter location, i brought a couple over there and found one to be VERY stinky and had some nice resin production.

My question, and yes there is one, is that i went away to college and was only able to pollenate them today (9/13/09) in your experience how long will it take for the seeds to be mature, hopefully i have a late frost, but i wouldn't want to get a bunch of un-matured seeds and was thinking i could leave the budds with the seeds on through the frost hoping it would give them time to finish up...

so what do you think fdd

i pollinated a bunch last week. i will do hit them again this week as well. i like to wait until i have full, thick, thumb sized nuggets.

a little frost never hurt anything. as long as it doesn't burn the plant and it gets a chance to warm up and dry out during the day, then a few cold mornings won't hurt it.

Hey look fdd I read every page without saying the "f" word.

Great thread thanks for the hard work.

I have one of my girls knocked up at the moment.
The mother is Ganesha's Dream. (Northern Lights x Shiva Shanti)
I crossed her with a very short, kush with great node spacing and good smell.
I really like these indoor sog that are not more than a bud on a stick.
I hope this will give me seeds that will improve on what we grew out this time.

I took a pic of a seeded bud. Forgive the newbie macro shot.

for fun im trying something different i have a clone only purple urkel in veg it is showing some pistils so i brushed it with some purple urkel/white widow hybrid pollen we will see if the pollen takes in veg. otherwise when i flower the urkel i will hit it with the urkel widow pollen to begin the backcross process.

it should work.

I don't know much about breading so what would crossing the urkel with the urkelxWW do? It would have 75% of the urkel genes now right? I just want to know if there is something I am missing.

i'm not sure if it's that simple when working with multiple crosses. it could be though. if both strains are 'stable" to begin with then theoretically it will be 50% of each parent, which would make it 75% urkel.

I'm not quite sure I know what stable means. Does it mean a physically stable phenotype that you achieve through inbreeding?

stable; no hermy traits mainly. consistent as well. if you plant 100 seeds you will get 100 identical plants. achieved thru selective breeding.
