Okay I have a few questions, maybe someone can help. Mostly genetic stuff. Background I have been growing white widow clones all winter (few crops) I just started a Blue Misty seed. If the Blue Misty is a female, great, i will clone her and harvest her and some clones while keeping a mum. But if the Blue Misty is a male i plan to pollinate a white widow lady with it. Now my question Lets say I pollinate a female ww with the bm....and get some seeds. I grow some of those seeds, and pollinate one of the lady seeds again with the bm pollen...........and get some seeds. My question is.......these seeds should have in theory 2/3 Blue Misty characteristics and 1/3 white widow........right? All I have ever grown is white widow Now I am growing some blue misty and some bubblegum I want to stick to these three strains and one variation of them, im thinking the ww and bm. ........"Blue Widow" or "White Misty"
ok lets back up a bit first of all...why are u trying to breed? right now u have 2 stable quality strains of weed. the reason most people breed is to either found out what will happen if they cross x with y, 'hey man lets just cross these two kick ass MJ and see what happens' or they are trying to select for a certain charictoristic outside of their existing strain. ie...lets say u like bluemystic (bm) alot...but u want a whiter color and thinner leaf quality to it that ww has. ur base is bm and u add bm pollin to a female ww that u find represents the type of genetic inflow u want...whambamthankumaam u got a set of seeds...if those seeds are fertile (which happens that they might not be) u then have to grow all those seeds out to find the few plants that u feel represents what u were looking for, maybe 5% if ur lucky. u then use ur original seed stock of BM and new seed stock to stabized those new genes while also keeping those new genes dominate, if u are able to even do that cuz sometimes u cant. remember, u have a couple of sets of seeds that are highly polyploided and horti'ed to the n'th degree and u develop even more n'th degree of inflow. thats alot for genes to handle. but its so much fun.
