If i planted seeds of a clone only s1 (like runtz) and I got 2 different phenos. If I then reversed those 2 phenos and crossed them to each other how would they be related to the original clone? Would it be f1?
what does that mean?R2 ?
Reverse 2. Essentially an F2, but fem version. If you decide to take that R2 and cross it back to the original keeper, you'll have an Rbx1. I dont work with fems, but theres another recent thread in this forum that goes deeperwhat does that mean?
You won't hear this on a youtube video but selfing is just a form of backcross since you are using the recessed male y chromosome of a choice female plant to create the progeny generation. And the progeny generation, if the seeds are pulled from the same female they are siblings aka "filial" or (F) so the seeds you have would be something like (SBXF1 "self-backcross filial 1").If i planted seeds of a clone only s1 and got 2 different phenos.

Adam dunn of thseeds has an episode of his podcast where he discusses this. Basically if you're breeding polyhybrids and bottlenecked fem strains standard nomenclature doesn't accurately apply.
