Epic Starting material....

Nah, it's just how it is. I can only do a 1 plant grow in my setup so often drop 2 + seeds per pot and pick the strongest looking. They can appear at different days even when the tap root has uniformly sprung on all of them.
Usually there's only a day or 2 difference if they're gonna pop.

Funny thing is every mephisto and night owl is up. Dutch passion not yet and that's it.

I fucking forgot cosmic apprentice in the cups for three days grow out long tap roots in the bottom of the cup . Into soil they went today hopefully they're not dead. That's what I get for smoking GSC forum cut before the job was done lol.


A bunch of those pots have two in them.i may try to move some into their own pots. It'll be easier to polinate with two strains that way.
 
Having the plant count you do this is a basic outline of how'd I'd go about it. Start by doing seed increases of the strains you'd like to work with. Breeding is a numbers game. Your working with mostly feminized seeds so I'd pop the seeds you have of a given strain and reverse the best looking one and open pollinate the rest besides things that have blaring problems like hermaphrodism.

Conventional thinking is to germinate as many as possible. I wouldn't do any less then 50 of each after the increase. You don't want to bottle neck genes. I could go into why its a numbers game but if your studying Mendel and recessive genes(alleles) you probably understand this. After you have lots of seed to play with you can find something really special hopefully and work on crosses from there. There's lots of combinations from even the small diversity of stock you have. Good luck and happy hunting.

Thank you this confirms my plan isn't out to lunch. I can do rooms of 12 lights with 16 plants per light once I find what I want to work with.

I have my entire cultivation setup for uniform testing indoor and out, spent five years on that. I haven't had a crop more than 20% diminished in five years. I grow in five gallon hempies with multiple drippers per pot, feeding up to 8 times a day. So far all my lights are 1000w hps/my. I need the heat here. My exaust will heat a greenhouse I'm building. GH is 32*72*16. I only have 150 amps total so seasonal greenhouse.


So far I'm thinking to cross everything with sour stomper, zkittles and auto glueberry. I have three areas I can separate and collect pollen in.
 
I am open to other crosses if anyone has experience or suggestions.

I only have second hand experience with a every one of these plants lol.

Clearly mistakes will be made, I'll be happy if I end up with seed, happier if I end up with thousands. I'm taking this as my first jaunt into breeding, because I was bored with growing.

I will knock up everything, nothing to smoke yet.

Gnome Automatics (formerly mandalorian genetics) @FullDuplex

His strains are fantistic - amazing breeder who's been a cornerpost of AFN since the start and also one of the early pioneers of the autoflower. (Won some cups last year for some of his strains)

Anvil
Blackstrap
Coal Miners Daughter
(or basically anything from fullduplex)

I think all of these (from memory) can turn a very deep purple. I'm currently smoking a Anvil (gnome genetics) crossed with WitchDoctor (magic strains) .. and it's lovely one!

He does regs mainly. (sounds like your cup of tea!)

Here's a link to his section


I think old sage seeds may stock his stuff!

:pass:

DSC, Welcome to the Breeding game! Your set-up is enviable to say the least.

I have sometime on my hands so here are my pennies:

Mephisto: IMO you can't go wrong with Meph gear. The vast majority of their cultivars are head and shoulders above the rest of the auto market.

Sour Stomper - I hope your one seed works out for you. Meph has used this strain in a number of crosses, including but not limited to:
  • Double Grape: Sour Stomper x Grape Crinkle
  • Forum Stomper: Girl Scout Cookies Forum Cut x Sour Stomper F4
  • Skystomper: Sour Stomper F4 x Auto Skywalker F4
  • Sweet and Sour: Toof Decay x Sour Stomper
  • Sour Patch Bears3 Bears OG x Sour Stomper

Duch Passion:
  • Auto Lemon Zkittles - you might want to try and find a fast finisher because the XXL I've grown from DP tend be closer to 100 days than 75.
  • Auto Glueberry O.G. - Classic strain that has been around the auto market forever. Haven't grown it personally.

NightOwl:
  • Galaxy Brain, Grizzly Crinkle, Sour Gummy Bears, Pino Noir, Cosmic Apprentice, Sweet + Smelly - really can't go wrong here. Nightowl has a google sheets doc that lists a lot of detail about most of these. Click here

RocBud: (one of my favorite breeders)
  • The Fringe , Magic Cookies Auto(Fem) V1.2, Passion Punch- I've grown all three of these an enjoyed them all. The first two are going to lean toward baked goods (cookies-ish) and the Passion Punch was super tasty but grew really fat airy buds.

Rando Vials:
  • MBAP X 3BOG - This sounds like a great cross! Kinda like a backcross with the MBPA being (3 Bears OG x Ripley's OG)
  • BLACKBERRY - If I had to guess, this is the Blackberry Kush from EU (FastBuds or maybe Seedstockers). I've grown the FastBuds blackberry a number of times. Usually it turns a very nice dark purple, but seems to lack potency.

Suggestions for F7 auto flowers that are worthy of breeding - There really aren't too many auto breeders that have worked lines that far. 100% agree with @blue that Gnome is where you want to look. I have Anvil and Coal Miner's Daughter available but can only ship within the US (Sorry!!).

That's enough from me! Looking forward to seeing this project blossom. :pop:

Btw every single seed came up lol.

What are the odds I could scoop out the extras I did in some pots into their own pots. I didn't think every single seed would come out blazing in four days lol

I have a cut of forum cut :). Also a couple other amazing clone only photos. I want to learn that process but have a LOT of learning you do first. Again thanks for the input.
