Okay so not a dire need just something that's bugging me that I can't figure out. My question is about how to figure out what your percetage breakdown will be when cross bre:?:e:bigjoint:ding strains with different sativa to indica ratio's in their genetic make up. Say you have a triple crossed strain you're developing and each of P1 (parent plants)has different %. Strain a is 10% indica 90% sativa. Strain b is 30% indica and 70% sativa. And finally strain c is 100% indica. And you genetically cross these strains what will be the resulting % for the F1(first gen plant) be? I couldn't figure this out and anyone who can would be doing me a huge favor, if they'd Explain how to figure this equation out...

Thanks

I don't really understand how you come to an F1 generation using 3 different strains. It will take at least 2 crosses to incorporate all the strains. Also, how you cross the strains together will change the linage differently. The way I always figure it is that each genetic parent supplies 1/2 of the genetics so a 100% sativa would add 50% sativa to the mix. Each cross will change the overall sativa/indica % but it's only an estimate because different phenotypes will have diferent amounts of indica or sativa properties some could even be pure sativas in a 75% indica strain.
 
Thanks for the replies guys, um pipe dreams I always though the first cross you do between any orgsmnism in the consideration of genetics was an F1. Andso I assumed that my resulting plant 2would be an f1. So since I was wrong then would it be considered an f2? I guess I'm still a little confussed on how mr.ganja arrived at the result being a 60% indica x 40%sativa. Man playing at being a genetisist is really no all that easy.

Thank fella's

you have to roll 3 dice, add that number. then subtract that by 6, roll the dice a second time.. . while flipping a coil with the other hand, if its heads you add 10 to that total number and if its tails you take away 10. that will be your sativa %
