Default Best Base Strains for Breeding
permalink
If all marijuana strains on earth were to suddenly vanish except for three, which three strains would you want to have left for breeding purposes? The goal would be to possess the fundamental genetics needed to produce the greatest variety of new, high potency, high yielding hybrids.

Makes sense. Haze for sativa influence and Afghani for some nice indica potency. World of seeds has a nice looking landrace Afghan Kush.

With the northern lights, are you thinking that keeps them short and disease resistant in a variety of growing conditions?

I've read that Northern Lights is used to increase yield, shorten flowering time and for stability. I'm not a breeder and I don't read about breeding often, just making some guesses.

My 3 nominations would be Skunk#1, Northern Lights #5, and Haze.

If I had to throw in a 4th it would be Big Bud. Just because it can be crossed to GREATLY increase yields. But that's just my 2 cents

"Skunk#1"

Good call, I drop Afgani and pick up Skunk #1.

Now holding: NL#5, Haze, Skunk #1, pretty much the same as xxplosive but in a different order.

What about Thai for some serious sativa influence? Or hash plant for resin production?

You can create nearly every modern strain using these 3.
