Phenotypes and Back crossing (BX).

[Rus]

This is a little blurb i came across, some good info.

This is amazing knowledge but every time I try reading it my eyes slam shut. There's no one around here that gives 2 shits about digging into it and I'm kinda slow anyways. So I'm thinking a 3d video expanding it and then bringing it all back together would break this awesome information out of its a extremely dry text. Also giving me the option of stopping and rewinding where needed till my synapses snap into place.

Ok learned alot reading the thread. But still confused. Ive made cs and used it on photos. Done many crosses with it some turning out to be solid no hermies some not so lucky. These were not bx just f1 the s1 seem kinda week compared to the f1 but i got a ton of seeds and thats good. So now I would like to proceed to the next step and work with autos. And have many new guestions but I see no one has been in here for a couple years. First question HELLO anybody out there?

ok cool, but both of the strains I have are auto, one is white widow auto from dinafem seeds the other is called snowrider auto from shortstuff seeds,,,, I do have some photos I'd like to turn into autos though..... so crossing my 2 autos will should give me fairly good all auto seeds?[/QUOTE GMO that two auto fem seeds and some silver wire and a power supply 8 12 volts put silver wire in RO water run power till ppm is 42 of silver spray plant daily for two days then flip lighting to under 12 hours and spray daily for two weeks by the way take the plant you are spraying out of the room when spraying most important lol now you got you self a trans sexual and I will shake it like a rag doll make it rain I was very successful with this I made a seeding that went from 1 leave to 5 leave never seen that before and do not smoke the silvered plant its trash and all my good friends got what I made and are very happy by the way

I made about 50 some seeds with my freebies as a test run, gigabud auto and blueberry headband auto. I should have started making seeds sooner, bless these autos for getting me started.

I messed up my one blueberry headband x blueberry headband back cross still woundering what it would have been like. I'm starting a grow journal for these beans I have so many of now.

 

[Kya Knight]

I crossed my strain to Dinafems white widow. I could back cross to the widow or back to my original strain. I'm going to grow them all out together and see what I'm working with.

 

[Kya Knight]

Can you back cross with a seed from the same seed stock used to make the f1? It sounds like the true breeding p1 are specifically the parent plants that made the f1 seeds.

So im assuming you would have to have pollen saved that you would reuse to successfully back cross.

 

[Kya Knight]

I had the male and female plants from my f1 stock flowering at the same time and they have left me one seed so far. Now I get a second chance with the blueberry headband x blueberry headband.

I lost interest in the widow cross for the time being. I'm more interested in the northern lights cross I've got for a Bx project.

 

[Kya Knight]

My f1 pollen for my bx project may have expired but I have an f2 I'm growing; hypothetically it's a good genetic substitute.

My current breeding experiments;

blood bud x blue bud and blue bud f2s. I am pollenating 3 blood bud with one blue bud and the same male is pollenating 6 or 7 blue bud females as well as some other stuff. Ive been getting almost all males with the blue bud stock, now most of this round have been female. The blue bud girls are very early in flower and already maturing many seeds and its hard to tell yet which plants are going to have what im looking for. The blood bud plants looked like they were going to fox tail hard and i let the tails get pollenated, its been plumping and developing some bx seeds, most of the bud had already matured so hopefully not too many. I am taking the male out soon and hoping to be able to study bud development in the blue bud females. This is kind of a shot in the dark attempt at nailing down the right f2 cross. You cant see what youve got till its too late some times so im just doing a round of seeding the whole room.

I just finished growing out seeds from an open pollenation of samsaras super sonic kristal storm to several experimantal auto strains i was testing at the time and ive let this new stock pollenate itself with the choice male. This is more f2 than bx but actually neither.
