How many strains do you average per run?

I usually shoot for 3 or 4, but at least 2. I was just wondering how many everyone else runs.

I've done as many as 26 (1 gal) (started at 32 but males/herms) and as few as 5 (5 gallon) in my 4x4..

i grow a tolerance to specific strains very quickly is why I go for so many, 26 was too many for the tent honestly, harvest suffered but yea

.

For the past 3 years Ive been running 1 strain per grow but my current grow has 4 strains - Granddaddy Purple, Purple Urkle, Purple Kush and Romulan.

.

Usually 3-4, as many as 12, never less than two.

Usually

I typically flower 2 - 3 at a time.

1 strain per tent, 2-4 tents.

Right now 3

My question is, what would be best stratagy for us in Canada. Maximum 4 plants at a time. How to pheno hunt and clone and have variety with only 4….

6 strains in 3 gal fabric pots 12/12 from start to finish in a 2x4 tent so far so good

When you do 12/12 from the start how long does it take for them to start to flower. Is that from seeds?

California is 6 total plants, I may or may not abide by the regulations. I don't think I'll go to prison over a few clones/seedlings.

I try to run at lest three strains. I usually run new stuff every time so sometimes a strain turns out not-so-good, but usually with three strains I get at least one that's pretty decent. Any flowers that turn out less than stellar end up in the bubble hash or rosin pile.

Use to doing 8 strains when I first started in a 4x4Tent. I’m now down to 4 strains per tent but summer time it’s a bit more. I’m currently doing 4 strains from Ace Seeds in my tent (Malawi, Golden Tiger, Golden Tiger x Panama(2) and Killer A5 Haze) and another 7 outside. Banana Kush Cake, Cinderella 99, Blue Cindy, CBG Zero, Slurricane, BlackBerry Moonrocks, and MAC

3 or less . Space is limited. I only need so much for one person. But it’s more than for a normal person , j/s because I have a rep to uphold . I like a sativa for the daytime and a hybrid or indica for the evening.

A plant count only counts if you get caught. We have one to, I just don’t worry about it and keep in with the “spirit” of the law rather than the letter. My 2x2 veg and 4x4 flower tents not producing commercially whether I’ve got one fully scrogged in the 4x4 and a cut rooting in the little one or I pop whole pack of seeds and keep ‘em all small. It’s just what happens when people wholly ignorant about something write the rules for it.

Do they differentiate between mature and seedling? More specifically, do they have separate plant limits for each? For example, I’m in the US and the state I’m in has guidelines based on size and plants aren’t considered mature unless over a certain size. Each has its own plant limit. So I keep my keeper plants as bonsai’s so they’re considered seedlings and don’t count toward my mature plant limit.

If you’re allowed a bunch of seedlings, you could keep the plants small during the pheno hunt, etc.

In Canada unfortunately no - 4 plants of any size.

Which is about half of what we should have - 4 immature plants and 4 in flower.

Same here, but the total is 6.

I do 7-9, all different strains, getting a 90% success out of the seeds I pop. From all different sources. I am finished now though for a while. Too much work..

I would love to hear another one of your stories of tripping balls and going to the hospital for a month, forgetting your name because of ego death..
