I have an associate that ran around LA buying up dispensary clones of who knows what. He then crossed all his clones with a male he found in the first pack of seeds he ever popped. He marketed all the crosses as his new strains and now calls himself a breeder, and he has a "seed company".
Fucking sad.
I feel sorry for the growers he's duped.
LOL his seed company wouldn't abbreviate to CV would it?

Seen a guy who is a "breeder" offering seeds of a cross he made literally 5-6 months after he got the cut he crossed it with (I know the guy he got the cut from well so not making up drama here) I called him out in a local forum and they all showed up with pitchforks, never saw him again but he continues to operate and sling his junk in Cali..

So by your definition how many times would someone need to cross/backcross and stabilize to be a breeder? It there a specific number ?
This is like trying to say what the "best strain is" there isn't a certain number of crosses…. if you take 2 true breeding strains say Skunk#1 x NL 5 to go old school and the F1 of them produce something unique and fairly uniform you could pass it as a strain on the other hand if you take 10 clone only strains and hit them with like 2 males (at different times) lets say a Jack the Ripper and a Space Queen… you have 30 crosses but the variety of phenos in there is ridiculous and not worthy of being called a new strain… but hey if people want to throw their money at it let em!!

Lol. Not him. But I dont want drama either. I'll just end up being a dick, and I don't want to ruin anyone's hustle.

This morning as I wait for my cookie to kick in I just want to praise those of us with GOD complex. You know who you are, whether you picked up your first seed pack with the intention of making beans or 5 years down the line you got the knack to let a male jizz all over some girls and make some beans. keep it up!!

While I do detest those pollen chuckers who call themselves breeders and sell their F1 crosses as strains with no evidence that they've ever grown any out, there is still a place for pollen chucking!! My seed vault is full of crosses handed down from associates as well as my own crosses, many of which I'm more excited to pop than strains I spent $80 bucks on and who knows what good can be found in there.

With legalization looming in many states in the US (OHIO voters did right by not voting for the legal monopoly) and other countries wrestling with legalization. big corporate has already got a hold on the legal scene and it's only a matter of time before mite resistant strains are out there (fuck Monsanto) so now more than ever it's important to stock up on beans before the industry is muddled with more crap than good!!

OVERGROW THE WORLD!!
I’m growing fruity pebble‘s OG open pollination to make F3s but I wanted to save some of the pollen and chuck it on different strains as I grow them Because I don’t want to grow the same strain over and over every time I want to cross it with something else. I would like to find out more about it
