Vigor is or isn't bred into a strain. Liking variation is one thing and that's totally opinion based. My point was that that kind of variation is random hybridization, strains by definition have stability and uniformity. That's why land races and true bred strains end up looking like this.
Was Sam a one hit wonder and what has he done lately? I think every "breeder" is doing a disservice to the gene pool. The guys like ken Estes, bodhi, swerve, og raskal, gage green and every other American grower with a good male and clone only females can make a hybrid better than any bullshit "breeder". Everything we were taught about breeding weed was a lie. What strains has Robert Clark made? The best breeder is yourself.
Every one of those listed has at least one stable strain lol, you plant the beans and they all look like they're supposed to. Bodhi is funny because he'll stabilize with two phenos intentionally. Swerve has some good genetics despite his shit business practices. Ken has GDP. These guys are actually making strains. Some of them just happen to also release the beans produced along the way that are unnecessary or unused for breeding. A lot of these guys sell their stable shit at a higher price tag than their f1s. Which make sense to me.
YUP... I am saying that....
Wow, JD just licked the milk off his upper lip and popped a few of his dad's strains and now he is on the BEST BREEDER LIST... interesting.
Absolute rubbish… but to each their own… enjoy your hermie prone polyhybrid crosses… not that I don't have any in my collection but I prefer tried and true genetics… that said I won't deny there is gold in poly's I prefer better odds and for breeding purposes better strains.
That is not exactly how it works....
cool... watch out for your mutants...
thats what i said before... a breeder once told me... everything we have now, is from the handful of seed companies when this first started....
Len worked that GDP for a long time. Bodhi goes and finds strains to work into his crosses and has a few true strains. Swerve is a douche and got lucky with gifted/stolen genetics, but the Buddha Tahoe cc puts out is fairly stable and uniform. Nugs all look/smell the same. I think I saw 1 mutant pheno in the 30 or so I ran from them(which is where clone onlys come from, genetic drift in true strains). Raskal has raskals og and rd1 and alien kush. They all have and use worked strains, they just also really their pollen chucked gear along the way as well. Makes tons of cash.
What's the point of hunting for a phenotype? To get one is as fire as the breeders? To get one with the cookie Dom pheno? Or the og leaning pheno? That would be really stupid if you could just go say....buy those phenotype representations and know that out of the $100 you spent on that pack of beans will all turn out the way that you want...right?
You're proving to be an idiot with no personal experience… you want to talk mutants? GTFO you're polyhybrid shit will prove much more prone to mutants, hermies and overall poor health in plants… go grow some TGA and see what ya get… I'll be over here popping something that's been worked, by breeders who don't release crosses that hermie and actually grow them out have them grown out by others and tested before ever releasing them.
