how could you tell a good male to bread for improved offspring

the first two are males. they are each from different bag seed. the first one is 6 1/2 ish inches the second is about ten inches. they are on pretty much on the same node the shorter one is just much more compact and also has the same amount of foliage. (also the first one has this oily skunkey sweet roting fruit smell when you rub her stem and smell it)

the third plant's seed originated from a desperate attempt to save the autoflowering genetics that i had. i ordered a 15 pack of random autoflowering seeds off dr. chronic and most 8 were cracked or broken upon first inspection and later discovered that more were cracked and inviable (3) i germinated the 4 seeds in mid/late october and only one sprouted and it turned out to be a male. i polinated a very small plant that i started late in the season(prob not a great female to pollinate) and got about 8 or less seeds and some of those were inviable (2). i grew out three one was i still have two left and this is one of them im hoping its a male so i can store its pollen.

i want to know how to tell if a male is going to be a good male to use for breading. and would the offspring of a 1/2 ruderualles and a indica still be autoflowering?

If you're breeding from bagseed, you're just taking a crapshoot on genetics. When you buy seeds you know "at least assume" you are getting what you paid for. So you can take a NL male and cross with an Afghani female, and know what genetics you're playing with.

When you use bagseed you don't know if the male is even a good strain, you flower females, you know what quality, males, it's just a guess.

If you want to breed, by the seeds. No point in taking two kids with downs syndrome and making them fuck to have kids, they will never produce an einstein. You get me?

Pick the male with the most characteristics that you are looking for. If you like the smell, use that one, if you don't, use the other. Same goes for structure, which is the nicer looking of the two etc.

take a clone of each and put them in their own flowering chamber. take note of how they grow and once they are finished try vaporizing some of the fan leaves. whichever one makes you feel more high is the more potent one.
