At what point should we let our strains go?

Easy but yet so hard question, at what point do you decide to let a strain go from flowering rotation? How many keep mothers around of strains long lost and forgoten incase you might want to put them back into flowering rotation again?
 
At what point should we let our strains go? *Never? well thats just me personally (ive had my PK mom since 2003) , shes such a trooper <3
 
This is why I want to master taking cuttings and cloning the plants that I have. If I had the space I would have a Mother Room larger than my flowering area because I'd like to have one of everything growing.
 
if you ever get tired of a plant, simply plant her somewhere in the wild(like 50yds off the road), or better yet make clones from all her branches and plant those.

OVERGROW FTW
 
Well I keep them forever if they are good, I instantly eliminate shitty strains upon discovery lol - if they yield 2 gram per watt, finish fast, vigorous, stay healthy easily, and taste good they are pretty much a keeper for life for me. I got about 12 or so strains currently.

Lets see Wembley, SLH, Citrus, Jilly Bean, Northern Lights, Power Kush, Vanilla Kush, Master Kush, Cheese, Lemon Skunk, White Siberian, AK47, Blueberry, Skunk#1, BlueberryXNorthern Lights.....think thats it for keepers.

how is the lemon skunk stain? i let go of my SLH strain and im kicking myself in the ass for it, but it was hard to get consistant plants off the clones and the strain i had wasnt a very great yielder.

i do have a lemon skunk seed i need to grow out eventually i just started c99 - bx1, western winds, and tangerine dream so im going to wait for this flowering cycle to end and have a second run on the stongest females out of them. I couldnt get my blueberry to not hermie and wasnt impressed with the weight she had. I did do some white russian when i was still a novice and would like to order some more beans to try and find a good mother. how is AK47 as far as yield and potency?
 
Another strain i wish i would of kept around was kandy kush, that stuff has an amazing taste smell and high. im down to my last two grams or so of it i need to order some beans of that. it sucks not having room i have so many strains i just dont have the room to start them and try them out.
 
well its just like SLH except its more lemony and a tad less potent, niether are really great yielders tbh, if you want max yield go with ak47 or crosses of it.
 
ak47 and crosses of it are the easiest to grow and best yield especially for amatuers and some taste very good and are very potent...White Russian, White Siberian, Wembley, etc....all great crosses with quality ak47 genetics, really any plant with ak47 genetics you wont be disappointed especially in the yield department, if thats what your after shoot for the breeders that go for yield - spanish breeders have some of the best 'commercial' stuff that is consistently yield well even in horrid conditions.
 
ive been running magus genetics exile for my yielder but im looking to change it up. this stuff likes to go a really long time on flower. but im pulling well over a pound out of a 2x4 area of my tent, the other half goes for head stash.

the nice thing about the exile is you can train it petty easily to just make multiple colas and each cola is about popcan around and two feet or so. Also the stuff wont die and can take pretty much anything you throw at it. but the potency just isnt the same as the really heady strains.

im going to be doing some remodeling on my room soon and throwing in a second 600w light so thats going to help a ton being able to keep head stash and a sog going in seperate areas.
 
I also did some cinderella 99-bx1 this grow hopeing it would be the magical plant but all i got was these tiny ass shit yeilders. i dont know about the potency and she is probably one of them have to work with it strains. have you grown any of it before?
