odd breeding question

i eventually want to start breeding after i get a couple more grows under my belt and im 100% sure of what im doing but i had a question. if i had a female, cloned it then hit it with the colloidal silver, could i use that pollen on the clone? and would it have a negative effect on the seeds they produce? thanks for any help!

that is called selfing, it is better to use the pollen from the hermie plant on another plant. selfing has been know to generate unstable genetics (herms ect.)

cool cool, thanks. i had heard of selfing but i wasnt sure if it only applied to when it pollenated its self or if it was also to clones too

wouldn't hermie pollen produce hermie seeds?

no, it is all circumstantial. it depends on how you get the hermie and whom you breed it with. a seed mad using pollen from a forced herm will only be as likely to herm as the parent, meaning you would probably have to force that condition on the offspring too.

clones of the same genetics would still essentially be, genetically the same. if you used a clone of a plant from a different seed (same strain) it would be called inbreeding. if you used a different strain, crossing.

sweet thats what i was hoping for
