breeding

I wanna get your guys opinion on this. With phenohunting you can get many different expressions of the same plants. Many of these new “designer” genetics are poly hybrids meaning there’s probably allot of genetic variation. Do you think it would be better to buy allot of one strain and phenohunt...

What up RIU?! I'm starting a breeding project that I'm excited about so I thought I'd document my progress here. I'm working out of a 2.5' x 8' tent with two 330 watt DIY Growcraft x3's. I grow organically in soil using dry amendments. I've got a lot of ideas for different breeding projects...

I'm surprised we don't have a special thread area for breeding. I feel like it's a very important part of our jobs as cultivators to know where our stuff comes from. Anyone create their own strain? If so, Please share! Also, can someone please explain the f1 and f2 system? Is that referring to...

Hello everyone I started growing weed years ago, but i had to stop everything for different reasons. Now i' m back and i can grow as big as i want, with only two issues : high humidity and not enough air recycling. I'm currently growing with 1800w on 3m2. Boys and girls are doing good despite...

Had a little breeding project this year, crossing blue haze into skywalker og... My question is how to tell when seeds are mature enough to harvest? Any tips?

I have a little cross breeding project going and so far so good. Seeds are everywhere.. my question, at what point do I consider the seeds mature enough to harvest? Any tips?

What’s up all. I’m new to breeding I’ve always wanted to to try it but got a little nervous now I want to know everything I can about breeding I have a discontinued strain from ethos I have 3 regular gmo runtz from them. If I breed them will they be usable seeds? I also have regular gmo cookies...

I want to create a high-heat tolerant strain for my self...anyone know how to do it? like how to select and stress them etc... I know there is many things need to take consideration like grow environment ,feeding all kind of staff. my idea is try some f1 under a high-heat stress and see which...

I see the larger male is getting big and spreading, i want to know should i keep it by the females. Also this is week 3 i believe. How can i prepare the male for seed i want seeds and bud for my grow

I know in the f2 and folowing generations the heterozygous traits start to appear which breeders can select and self or back cross to the parents... but what exactly does an f1 hybrid look like? Is it simply just 50% from each parent? -I.E. 15% CBD strain crossed with 15% thc will produce...

When the time comes I'd like to breed these two plants. I got a male and female. They're only 24 days old, whens the right time to pollinate and can it be as easy as just rubbing the males pollen on her pistils? Help! Seriously y'all I don't need some complex answer, whats hands down the...

Howdy :) As title says I was thinking to get seeds from Feminized Photoperiods. I have been following growweedeasy.com guide 'force female plants to make pollen' . Yet i have got some questions here .. Right now i have 12 Feminized Photoperiod plants in vegetative status. I am going to...

Hey RIU, I'm going to try to induce a hermie in a plant I'll be harvesting soon. I'm going to harvest the top 4 feet, and leave the bottom foot, then use dark period interruption to try to get her to grow some nanners and pollinate herself. My question is how long does it take nanners to form...

We all know that when a female plant is pollinated THC levels are compromised. When only one or two female flowers on a branch are pollinated, does that only effect that one branch branch or the whole plant with respect to THC levels? In general, is there a rule of thumb for just how much THC...

I have a male cindy 99 almost 2 weeks into flowering in a one gallon pot. I was wanting to make some seeds with my white widow. I noticed this morning two female hairs coming from a lower Male pod. Only 2 on the plant but now I'm wondering if I should pollinate or not?????

I had 5 females and 2 males I kept a little too long last bloom cycle. 3 plants didn't take well, 1 has a decent amount for its size, and 1 plant is loaded with seeds. Got almost 50 seeds from her so far. Does fertility mean anything in breeding cannabis? Or am I over thinking?

I’m trying to get a healthy seed collection, I’ve been buying a few packs a month. I keep seeing R1’s and I’m not sure what exactly that means. I know F1, S1, BX1, if anyone with some knowledge would be able to help me out, I would appreciate it.

Hey guys I have these 2 plants that’s 6.5 weeks into flower and today I noticed male pollen sacks growing on ONE lower branch on each. There 8-9 week strains. I checked the whole plant multiple times and it’s only on the one spot on the one branch at the bottom of my plant. The plant has been...

I’ll be using this to document the long and arduous journey of my strain creation. Last summer after doing quite a bit of sampling of flower and terp sugar I came across a particular strain and decided to make a cross with another favorite strain of mine. Not only would the male compliment the...

Seeds produced for consumer cuttings, can sometimes have hermies or sterile male flowers! Who specialises in Hermies free regular seed, for the purpose of Breeding Programs? Can we make a short list.
