So Called "Master Seed Breeders" Who Am Merely Combine Others Strains

Why is it a bad thing that breeders work with genetic lines selected by other breeders? It takes a whole lot more work than just crossing two plants to make some seeds, but even that isn't all that bad if you select a good, strong male to pollinate with. Years of experience and generations of test crosses and selections go into creating a strain. Using landrace strains is a great way to bring new genetics into the gene pool, but recombining the alleles of existing strains can bring out some incredible traits. Your f1 hybrids are probably exhibiting hybrid vigor.

I like pot......

Its just how it goes when 2 plants sex, you may not be a master breeder but you did just "breed" and the new offspring is considerd a new Hybrid or whatever...

usually 25%will be better 25%worse and 50 will be average...i know i like to keep seeds that get me high plant them and if they so happen to make seeds i keep the ones from the BETTER plants and continue the process. this is what i call "Ghetto breeding"

to be a master seed breeeder like your saying you need to invest alot of time and money and keep a real close watch on everything.

Do you have any experience with Mandala? I got a freebie safari mix and was not impressed with anything that those beans gave me. On the other hand, I was very impressed with the Serious seeds that I ordered which is where my freebies came from.

While I agree with the gist of your post, there are breeders out there that are not just crossing crosses.

satori at thc28%yields more weed,is tougher against disease,bugs,mites,and mold,and anything i breed satori to looks like satori and has its potency increased ,ie nother lights satori & white widow satori.also mandala no1 has the rare property of actually turning truely purple unlike the urkle(deep purple) seedsmans purple bud,and the worst of the bunch purple widow!if a 21% true purple plant that smells like rasberry .both strains are from true landrace they actually created from their own genetics.my hat is off to them!!!

the reason its a bad thing to plagerize others work,(there are many)is that the strains become weaker and more and more alike no mater what you order,ww,nl,haze,sk no 1 ,bgum,blueberry,1 or all is in about everything offered and at some point they are just another juggling of the same tiered genetics!its nice to find something truely new and wonderful.

I totally agree. It's one thing to pollen-chuck on a personal level but it's another thing to do it commercially and promote the sh*t out of yourself. With a few exceptions, what we have these days are seed producers, not breeders.

There's plenty of plants that turn dark purple. Look up "Nightshade". Out here in the Bay everyone calls it "Sideshow". It turns 100% purple with fuschia undertones running throughout. From my knowledge it's also a sativa dominant strain.
