Cross-breeding Marijuana with another Plant, like a Fruit

Keep trying pinto. The more things you bone the better your chances are of a successful cross. That would be 1 funky monkey. Let me know if you want I can give you instructions on how to bone a chicken.

Is it possible to cross-breed weed with like a strawberry plant for example? Then you get like pink strawberry buds or something mmmmm....

Anybody with ideas or who have tried it post here!

we could cross a pot head and monkey, to eat them. see: Biology 101

whats a GMO danny??

stonerman...I think the idea of a cabbit is whacked but I will defend to the death your right to believe it. Your right about wiki as well. It's only as good as the last person to contribute. Rock On budski and keep the dream alive.

GMO stand for gentically modified organism. they take desirable traits from one life form and splice it to plant dna.

danny... I know they are out there but shoot me a couple of GMO's examples. I know we have been successful in breeding in disease resistance but I just can't pin an example down.

Monsanto owns everything from corn to soy beans. GMOs that have been copy righted. How do you copyright genes? I seriously hate that gene copyright thing.
Also, you're not allowed to grow corn or soy beans that aren't Monsanto's. If you are, they show up at your farm and shut you down - as long as they can claim you're too close to their fields.

cross pollination is possible if it is done right you'll have do some research on cross pollination so have fun

t's done through cross pollinating the male and female plant. A larger amount of space is needed and it can take many plants to find the right one. The resulting new strain can however be fairly profitable. You have something no one else does. You can take clones from this new plant or go for seed production.

First you have to collect the pollen from the male plant, this is usually done by placing a bag over the plant and shaking it. Then you transfer the pollen to your female plant. The seeds it produces are the new strain.

Choose a name, a common way to go about this is:
Strain A x Strain B - Or you can choose something on your own that describes the high or color of cannabis it produces. There are a lot of names already out there that might not even have anything to do with what it is, this is because a dealer will sometimes rename his stash to market it.

Usually a larger commercial grower or just someone with a lot of time and some $ on their hands will create new strains.

If crossbreeding was that simple, there would be some extremely funny-looking sheep out in the more rural areas...

Well played, Sir! That was frikkin funny!

I don't know why everyone think's that this is so funny. Maybe one day with more advancements in science and botany there just might be pink strawberry buds or kiwi buds

I bet within the next 10 years.... they did unveil that potato-tomato plant ..

I believe cannabis can be grafted to hops and vice versa but I could be wrong.

It can be. I read about a German guy actually working hard to cross pollinate as well, but I'm not sure he had any success. Hops is your best bet to get a cross going although I don't think anyone has successfully done it thus far.

You know it would be pretty fuckin brilliant if someone could successfully hybridize Cannabis to Hops. It would be a new species and maybe would still produce the drugs we love. Probably not near as much, but shit - who cares with good extraction technique?

whats the point? its already in the same family. or genus or species i cant remember how those flow anymore. If you want weed beer you can do that already. You want to smoke hops? I dont think that will get you drunk. I dont see the cash benefit from cross breeding pot with other stuff. maybe im missing something. weed apples? i dont get it.

what I mean is theres no reason to do it other than to say you did it. therefore not enough people have invested the time money sweat and tears into attempting it. Its going to take a while for a couple greenthumbs in their backyards toying with cross breeding to actually do it. Monsanto could pull that shit off if there was a payout. lol

wow, like I said in another thread: they already made this movie: The Island of Dr. Moreau

If someone gives a call to a genetics lab then we could probably crop a nice buds n' berries plant. I do agree that it would most likely be utterly delicious smoke... not sure how good the berries would be, but the smoke I think would more than make up for it.

We have wild hopps growing in our area. No one can seem to figure out how they got here since I dont believe they are originaly from these parts!! BUDHOPPS....hmmmm ..you might be on to something there!!!

THC infused beer?? Now thats a original idea!! LOL

satch said:

No, this idea has come up many many times. It can't happen. There was a joke thing going around a couple years ago about a guy making THC oranges.

Shulgin made THC from orang peel and lichen heated in tin foil
