Plants are all looking good. Just learn to read them and give em what they need. I'm interested to see how they turn out. I use soil-less organic Sunshine mix and have heard a lot about coco- that it takes some getting used to but once you figure it out growing some dank is pretty easy. Good...

Good post aeviaanah. kbo ca- Nobody's going to shoot, lol. I don't have a "problem" per se with calling them "clone-only" strains- at least in the name it is telling folks it's a xerox. As I said in a previous post, strictly from the academic standpoint of genetics, "clone-only" is not...

It isn't "our" definition. It is what Science has defined. Just because 1/2 of the world is ignorant to the existence of gravity does not mean that gravity does not exist simply because half the world says so. Think about that for a while, if you can. Clone-only is merely copying a plant by...

In terms of the dog analogy, the general principles of genetics and breeding are universal. While breeding a strain (ie a new breed) of dog, the male you breed with becomes closer genetically as selective breeding continues through successive generations. This is also true w plant genetics.

323cheezy, I'll take my degree in biology over your horribly typed and incoherent response. Good day.

IMO, most breeders cross with stable, widely available stock. There are several strains out there that act sort of as a blank slate. Question I have is why in the world would anyone allow a good strain to go seedless? That smacks of bad care of the genetic lines by the breeder(s), plus laziness...

Good to see ya back bro.

Hehehe I guess I got tired of writing and tried to wrap up the post too soon, but, yes, I would inbreed the hell out of them, but I would also grow out more of the MMm1 and CM2 to check the frequency of appearance of PH1 at that stage, as well as at each successive stage of inbreeding MMm1 and...

It really is about making a fast $ for most "strains". I am currently working on finding a stable cross between MNS "Medicine Man" (the original "white Rhino") and MNS "Critcal Mass" (the original "Big Bud") I plan on calling it "Critical Medicine". Here's about how it would go. Grow out...

LordWinter- Couldn't have said it better. +rep.

Speaking form the standpoint of academic genetics, so bear with me as I AM being a bit technical here, but there really is no such thing as a "clone-only STRAIN". Plants that are "clone only" are merely direct copies of whatever special phenotype is being copied. If the special phenotype can...

I'm w LordWinter on this, Mr. Nice & Shanti have the original genetics of the white strains, Shanti created them. They do not feminize seeds due to the genetic instability it produces. Double plus because you can grow a male for the pollen and do your own crosses :)

Think in terms of what it takes to create a new breed of dog. You cross one breed with another, or several breeds, what does it take to achieve a stable, constant result of certain characteristics/traits from the breeds used in the cross? The stable result of desired characteristics is a new...

Rumor has it that a cross with MNS "Critical Mass" and MNS "Medicine Man" is in the works. For those who know, "Critical Mass" is Shanti's reworked original Big Bud, and "Medicine Man" is the original White Rhino genetics. Post your thoughts/observations please.
