F2 strains

All right so I picked up some C99 F2 seeds.. and so it seems a F2 has a royal-shit-fuck-ton more phenos than an F1. So when I get a pheno that is desired, how am I able to breed it so that I'll have a higher possibility to get that pheno again? If I breed two F2's then I end up with an F3 and more pheno types than I want already right?

Sure, ever take biology? If you did, and if you remember it, they talk about this dude Mendel.. he did the experiments with pea plants I think.. anyways a phenotype is essentially a set of traits inherited from the parents of the plant.

Grow out as many plants as you can, then breed only the best looking one(s).

Repeat.

So essentially, once I have my selected traits, I am going to inbreed the fuck out of it? lol

Ah, you're right.. phenotypes are not necessarily genetic. But they are still it's traits.. but yeh
