i have a magic bud male .. that i picked out of 3 diff magic bud males.. and im wondering if i should just breed with another magic bud to get mad seeds of magic bud. or should i cross it with another strain i have going..
to choose from i have
Special k. (Kush x Northern Lights)
Sour Cream ( sour diesel x g13 haze)
blue widow (blueberry x white widow)
tutankhamon(which i am pretty sure is an ak47 strain..
and a couple more but what should i be looking for when breeding a magic bud male with another strain or even with a female magic bud..

most of those are fine strains to cross. It a lot easier to cross with like strain plants. Most of those strains are predominately indica just as the magic bud seems to be because of the short flower time and bushy growth. The only exceptions are the tutankamon which is by the way a great strain, and the sour cream which is mostly sativa. Mine grew with super sativa leaves and showed more sativa traits so i wouldn't mess with that as a mix. Its basically just what sounds better to you. northern lights seems to make every strain better. Or you can just go for more magic bud seed if you like that skunk.

decided to pollinate a magic bud clone with a magic bud male.. and i also pollinated the special k.. with the magic bud male.. the special k is almost ready to chop.. and the magic bud just got pollinated 3 days ago.

dude collect the pollen from that male and you can selectively pollinate certain buds on each plant, that way you have the most variety of phenotypes to pic from for your next cross,

problem with that is i have 20 plants in there right now that will be harvested before the seeds would be close to getting done... in about a week. im going to put one of my magic bud male clones into the male flower tent.. and then take a clone of Orange Bud , California Hash, Pineapple Express, Mekong High, Blue Widow, anesthesia, white widow, sour cream, special k , mango, g force.. and put in there with it .. to create a nice seed stash before moving to my new place.

yeah dude, I havent acquired a good male yet, but my plan is to just collect a bunch of pollen and fertilize my lower buds, on every grow, that way, I can just crop the top, and let a few bottom hangers mature,

i8 have all sorts of fans .. and Can fan at 300 cfm and a 6 inch inline at 440 cfm.. no way i can selectivly pollinate certain buds without accidently having accidental pollinations.. and randoms seeds in my entire grow i dont think its worth it .. i just take single clones and put them with a male ina different tent with no air circulation.. besides and exhaust fa nthats going right outside with a filter on the front just incase.. i dont need a whole crop of seeds.. i need my medicine..
