Creating an auto: Male photo x Female auto?

[The Medicine Man]

Hey there,

So, this was a Q I had in one of my threads and was thought better to be asked here.

I know traditionally people take a female photo, pollen from an auto, mate those, and backcross a male from that seed to the female photo and start selecting.

My Q... how can you do that using the opposite? A male photo plant and a female auto?

Just curious, as I only have pollen from a nice deep chunk cross that I have, and decided to pollinate a super resinous HBD that I have. But, I have no idea what to do next.

Thanks!

If the book I read back in high school is moderately correct and there's no sign it is I feel like you will need to make one extra bx to ensure the recessive gene. That's again if I remember correctly but I'm stabbing in the dark.

I replied in your home thread OG.

You can use what ever part of a photo plant you want. Male or female. Wiz's black dragon's were made from male pollen on a female auto.

If you think about it, it would be wise to back cross to a photo mom AND dad. IMO you'd grab genes from both sides to complete the auto.
