I agree, i think its odd this gentleman isnt taking clones of his keeper cits and breeding with those, rather he is breeding straight from seed. How does he know or have any idea what the outcome is going to be? Like you said there are so many UNstable genetics out there nowadays.
@@ambientnoise2656 keeping clones makes sense to me for breeders. If nothing else you can compare the original from clones to the plants from your seeds. And you can go back if a cross goes wrong. I can see lots of reasons for keeping clones or keeping a mother and breeding her clones. I've never been a breeder but I can't imagine an advantage to always starting from seeds and not keeping clones.
Wait intil everything is feminized or auto! Males will be more valuable like rare/ exclusive forum cuts are!! Reg. Packs will be considered pollen chucker packs smeared as unstable!!! In 5 years watch!!
Another very key trait that I look for that not many people talk about (on both Male and Female plants) is stem fragility. As I go through my selection process and the plants are getting big enough to get stem smell, stick, internal spacing etc...I will pull a branch down gently, if it pops from the main stem or buckles over without much force I toss it. I'm not breeding weak stem structure into my lines. Key concept for sturdy plants that can withstand some serious weight at the end of the growing cycle. Great vid and really dig the guests you are getting on. Thanks Chris.
Your channel is literally priceless and I hope everybody who watches your videos appreciates and understands how lucky they are to live in a time where this information is not only out there for free but is also brought to us and thought out/formatted by you. There is so much content available nowadays it’s 24/7 so it’s easy to just consume without understanding the thought , effort & work that goes in to what you do so I invite everybody to be mindful of the whole scope of what it takes to bring this information to us. Appreciate it and absorb it. What a time to be alive, literally. I appreciate you man, more life 🌱💨🤝
I like his approach to breeding. Anyone can read a book and explain it to other people, but actually doing hands on and observing the results makes you a much better teacher.
This was one of my favorite episodes. Growing good flowers is fun for the first so many years, after that breeding becomes addictive, and although this is very entry level breeding information it's a very relaxing enjoyable listen for those who love the process. And remember, it's more about the journey then the destination! Love the process and you will be a breeder for life.
At 34:40 when he is talking about how it’s important to select well he is correct but is missed the biggest reason why. Because the f2 generation it the one where the recessive traits that you may have liked in one of the two plants while making you original cross. Not all desirable traits are dominant, some are recessive. If you are able to pick out a male or female plant with a desirable trait and that trait is occurring in approximately 25% of the pheno hunt, it’s a good hint that it may be recessive in nature. When you breed 2 visual recessives together 100% of the offspring will carry and display the visual recessive trait. Dominant traits aren’t always better, and recessive traits are much more valuable because they are more difficult to attain and take more generations to breed.
Hey Chris I rewatched this after few months from last year I now hav my own beans ,I crossed banana kush with skittles grown that out then pollinated it with pollen from a whitewidow silver haze and the beans are the size of mandarin fruit seeds im yet to plant ,can u tell me why the seeds are so dam big iv seen big beans but people I show don't believe there real ,I live in Australia I would love to send u some dude ,p.s im the biggest fan if come for holiday would love to catch up 100%
This is my favorite UA-cam channel. The quality of content and the variety of discussions is more than helpful. I'm always able to find the answers to my questions.
Thank you for the time and effort Chris... It's Legendary that you are gifting us this content👊. Also much appreciation to all the guests.(Canadian Leaf Genetics) I enjoyed your knowledge and perspective equally 😤💨👌
I try to change my profile pics of strains I've bred. There's one right here. A single plant under a 600 HPS. I started on this strain 2010. Finished in 2017. In nearly 30 years, I've bred 5 strains completely stable. Every seed is clone only worthy. That plant actually lufted the trellis off the ground. It's much harder today, as the genetics are a long way off from 95-2000
Thank you guys for sharing this knowledge! I had no clue as to just how technical plant breeding could be! The comments were greatly appreciated, as well! Enjoy! Be safe!
Something I read in high times years ago was for males and females looking at the density of hairs on the cotyledon leaves will translate to density of trichomes on the plant later on during flowering
💩💡🪴👌👽💨🦨 Great episode, can't wait for a Part 2 about tips on breeding, selection &utilizing autoflowers and Fast buds photo/auto mixes for shorter flowering.
I wonder if I take a boat across superior I can get my hands on these. Lol. Hard to find good genetics for the cold. Great video guys. It will be awhile but I plan on doing this myself. And the information you guys do provide is actually priceless to people who don't know.
Hope it doesn't hurt to much leaving an coming back cause I'm a full time caregiver an hard not to leave sometimes. Always enjoy watching Chris. Thanks.
Breeding Afghans with Nepalese for old school hash and coconut oil infusion. Shake off the chomes, soak the rest in oil, strain and make kashi with the left over plant material. Three way winner!
I’m currently attempting to breed an autoflower and photoperiod so really glad I listened to the end of the episode. Where can I get more info on this process?!
I once pollen chucked with seed junky ( gelato 41x sherb) male to a few of my best strains. I got just ok stuff. Since then I only breed plants I know that’s fire 🔥 and had nothing but great results ever since.. so never breed on paper- always off proven plans.
I appreciate you for always spreading the knowledge amongst the community , being able to grow your own medicine is great but being able create different genetics is even better , it’s like playing god lol 👨🏽🔬
I just tried crossing genetics for the 1st time I took a lemon diesel male from ethos and pollinated a watermelon zskittles from Barney farms and brain cake from ripper seeds I'm just curious I'll plant the seeds label and clone the ones I like
Good stuff. Hopefully I'm around in the years to come to try this. Got started with a tent, but there's definitely an expiration date looming over head. Either way I love this stuff. Thanks for the channel bro you've taught me a lot
You'll be around brother! I recently started with an immature bag seed. I ended up buying more seeds from a bank. And now I have two GG#4 plants, cantaloupe, and 2 dwarf tangerine trees lol.
Great content and the topic is 🔥 definitely more and more about breeding would be fine with me lol and the Instagram pic with you Chris,pigeons, and rob from cltv in suits blowing smoke was 🔥 too !! Love the channel
It is me thanks for the love! Just to be clear for people who find me through here, my channel doesn't really show any breeding info etc. It is more of a personal diary for myself, specifically on my basment shenanigans, there's alot more that goes on behind the scenes. Who knows, maybe I'll start sharing more ;). 8 weeks for me is just a safeguard.
@@theweedycanadianman4845 I watch a lot of different grow Channels. I’m one of your 80 subs on that Channel. So I thought you looked very familiar. Cool to see you on one of Chris’s Channels. I watched the whole video.
Does anyone know for certain if the part of the seeded female from which the seeds are harvested (apical bud or lower branch buds) affect the pheno- and chemo- characteristics of the resulting seeds? Thanks!
Really digging the discussion for sure. A lot of great talks on this channel. Big fan for sure. We have some things brewing this way as well and hope to be able to cross paths in the future ✊🏼🌴💪🏼
I went to Jamaica a few years ago I kinda got duped into buying some trash weed. I had found a seed in it and kept it. Do yall think they could have given me wild flower? I’m kinda interested in growing it out and seeing if I can get some good bud breeding it.
Mr grow good episode I would be so happy to see one on making auto flower seeds Since there’s no way to clone them and the price per seed to buy n gro just isn’t possible for folks needing a hundred seeds or more
My last plant did very well and gave me quite a few seeds at the same time, Basically the plant just saved me money from going out and buying the same clone again or from buying seeds that may be lower quality and have lower germination rates. This time my plant arr started from seed from the clone plant are doing freaking amazing compared to what the clone I bought looked like.
I wonder how breeders test for a plant being resistant to powdery mildew. Do you put a PM covered plant in the garden & see what happens? Lol Seriously curious on checking resistance to PM and how that works. Recently I killed off a few males one was Ethos Fruity Pebble OG the smell was overwhelming when I chopped it up I kinda wish I kept the plant to play with but currently don’t have an area where I could keep it separated from the girls. I am getting interested in starting to chuck pollen & start to go down that rabbit hole for myself. Cheers Chris! I absolutely love your content! You always knock it out of the park sir ! PS brewing microbe tea with an oxygen concentrator DOES make super soldier microbes after all! 😝
I am curious about this topic also Rico. Here in Oklahoma we have to grow plants that can battle the high humidity issues, PM problems. I have started this process but unable to “treat it right” and keep running the strain over and inbreeding back. Very interesting content!
It is clear some genetics have a reduced vulnerability to pm. In my experience f1s from diverse stable lines are good places to start looking. Inbred lines (hate to generalize but.... ) these days are more often than not somewhat to highly vulnerable. To test a strains immunity you could certainly find out via poor nutrition. Put as much potassium as nitrogen in your starting mix or deny the plants copper and you'll find out real quick
Back to father is BX which is backcrossing. F2 is crossing brother and sister offspring of same parents , cross those there is your f3, cross those there is your f4 and so on and so on
Genetics for Dummies, I got as far as the Mendelian genetics and that's all I needed to figure out what was up with my weed strain with a leaf anomaly. It's from a recessive gene so each time I cross it, I have to take 2 F2 plants with the recessive gene and use them to make F3 seeds and all of those seeds make plants with the anomaly. So it's a slow process to stabilize a recessive gene but knowing how it works sure saved me from a lot of guesswork! Copy and paste: In his 1865 publication, Mendel reported the results of his crosses involving seven different characteristics, each with two contrasting traits. A trait is defined as a variation in the physical appearance of a heritable characteristic. The characteristics included plant height, seed texture, seed color, flower color, pea-pod size, pea-pod color, and flower position. For the characteristic of flower color, for example, the two contrasting traits were white versus violet. To fully examine each characteristic, Mendel generated large numbers of F1 and F2 plants and reported results from thousands of F2 plants. What results did Mendel find in his crosses for flower color? First, Mendel confirmed that he was using plants that bred true for white or violet flower color. Irrespective of the number of generations that Mendel examined, all self-crossed offspring of parents with white flowers had white flowers, and all self-crossed offspring of parents with violet flowers had violet flowers. In addition, Mendel confirmed that, other than flower color, the pea plants were physically identical. This was an important check to make sure that the two varieties of pea plants only differed with respect to one trait, flower color. Once these validations were complete, Mendel applied the pollen from a plant with violet flowers to the stigma of a plant with white flowers. After gathering and sowing the seeds that resulted from this cross, Mendel found that 100 percent of the F1 hybrid generation had violet flowers. Conventional wisdom at that time would have predicted the hybrid flowers to be pale violet or for hybrid plants to have equal numbers of white and violet flowers. In other words, the contrasting parental traits were expected to blend in the offspring. Instead, Mendel’s results demonstrated that the white flower trait had completely disappeared in the F1 generation. Importantly, Mendel did not stop his experimentation there. He allowed the F1 plants to self-fertilize and found that 705 plants in the F2generation had violet flowers and 224 had white flowers. This was a ratio of 3.15 violet flowers to one white flower, or approximately 3:1. When Mendel transferred pollen from a plant with violet flowers to the stigma of a plant with white flowers and vice versa, he obtained approximately the same ratio irrespective of which parent-male or female-contributed which trait. This is called a reciprocal cross-a paired cross in which the respective traits of the male and female in one cross become the respective traits of the female and male in the other cross. For the other six characteristics that Mendel examined, the F1 and F2 generations behaved in the same way that they behaved for flower color. One of the two traits would disappear completely from the F1 generation, only to reappear in the F2 generation at a ratio of roughly 3:1
Great video. Any chance of getting Rasta Jeff on an episode. Dude is a OG in the breeding/ growing world and would make for a great and informative interview for the community.
Can you please interview someone who talks about breeding with STS spray? or point me to the right direction. i’m just curious how breeding with only reversed female plants affects genetics and such. thanks for the great content!
9:00 Starting with both an f4 or f5 is going to be better than not.* Bc you will have two stabilized genetics that are crossing and will gain some hybrid vigor in the initial offspring. So you could have a good generation to grow out from; though that generation's offspring will be more of a craps shoot. With tomatoes and stuff they're waiting until like f7+ as far as I know.
I accidentally crossed a fem pb breath that nannered with a super lemon haze a purple punch and a unicorn pop all feminised , only got a couple beans from the punch and unicorn though
Good talk... 👍 Kinda felt like he spent the entire video saying "well your just going to take the plants your wanting to breed and find those traits your wanting to use or take a step back*... I mean yeah that's definitely good info and you guys did absolutely touch base on a few things.. But for me the discussion was waaaaaay different then say the episode #23 where you discussed very closely similar things with Vader.. but I'm mean you take Vader's personality and how he can easily speak on his knowledge as well as feel comfortable discussing these things as if it's second nature then compare that with this gentleman and again you have a separate conversation as well.. Either way like I said it was a good talk for sure... Starting a OG Kush right now that I'm wanting to grow out and breed with a Bruce Banner x Kali Mist cross and I was thinking coming back to a Bruce Banner male.. but Both the cross's center of attention when you look it up on Supreme seed's describes it as an Awesome Morning Cup of coffee.. energetic and uplifting etc... And people everywhere that have tried the ol' godfather OG Kush knows it's as well a very social strain... I'm sure both of these if you went a little further in and got your darker trichomes cured it a little bit longer you be able to locate more of the couch lock effects but as far as Bruce Banner this has always been on of my favorites as well as ✌️ house strains (different dispensaries) out of Colorado.. Dopamine & another being Serotonin... I've always loved that good heavy mental and body high... And I'm not sure with these two combined yet that I'm wanting to try to steer away from the awesomeness of the great social strain with energetic and uplifting qualities... Kinda leaning more towards trying to run it with say a Green Crack male and then from there localize of doing a few pheno and brother sister matches to bring it up to something more "stable" and steady.. Love watching the show... It's always fun and I think the wide variety of people being brought on from high experience to your everyday successful beginners getting noticed is always a cool thing and educational especially when I get to see episodes like this one and with Vader ✌️🤓
In my opinion the reason why I do it is to help people if someone says they have some back it issues and found out that a strain does good for them then I will help them out and bring the cultivar into production so that they can have 100% clean medicine and know exactly what our inputs are sustainability is the key
@@GardenTalkwithMrGrowIt I wrote a detailed reply but decided not to crap on your sponsor after re-reading dude, just a little bitter here that's all. I'll keep it to myself :)
If i grew, I'd take weekly notes on each plant cultivar, including height each week, node spacing (are they nodes?), etc. ..and then follow up with notes when i sampled. Maybe, i could then ID phenotypes (crudely) in veg stage and maybe get to stabilizing quicker. ...all hypothetical. I don't and can't grow. Interesting though. Thanks for the good content.

To fully examine each characteristic, Mendel generated large numbers of F1 and F2 plants and reported results from thousands of F2 plants.
What results did Mendel find in his crosses for flower color? First, Mendel confirmed that he was using plants that bred true for white or violet flower color. Irrespective of the number of generations that Mendel examined, all self-crossed offspring of parents with white flowers had white flowers, and all self-crossed offspring of parents with violet flowers had violet flowers. In addition, Mendel confirmed that, other than flower color, the pea plants were physically identical. This was an important check to make sure that the two varieties of pea plants only differed with respect to one trait, flower color.
Once these validations were complete, Mendel applied the pollen from a plant with violet flowers to the stigma of a plant with white flowers. After gathering and sowing the seeds that resulted from this cross, Mendel found that 100 percent of the F1 hybrid generation had violet flowers. Conventional wisdom at that time would have predicted the hybrid flowers to be pale violet or for hybrid plants to have equal numbers of white and violet flowers. In other words, the contrasting parental traits were expected to blend in the offspring. Instead, Mendel’s results demonstrated that the white flower trait had completely disappeared in the F1 generation.
Importantly, Mendel did not stop his experimentation there. He allowed the F1 plants to self-fertilize and found that 705 plants in the F2generation had violet flowers and 224 had white flowers. This was a ratio of 3.15 violet flowers to one white flower, or approximately 3:1. When Mendel transferred pollen from a plant with violet flowers to the stigma of a plant with white flowers and vice versa, he obtained approximately the same ratio irrespective of which parent-male or female-contributed which trait. This is called a reciprocal cross-a paired cross in which the respective traits of the male and female in one cross become the respective traits of the female and male in the other cross. For the other six characteristics that Mendel examined, the F1 and F2 generations behaved in the same way that they behaved for flower color. One of the two traits would disappear completely from the F1 generation, only to reappear in the F2 generation at a ratio of roughly 3:1
Great video. Any chance of getting Rasta Jeff on an episode. Dude is a OG in the breeding/ growing world and would make for a great and informative interview for the community.
I emailed him
Hope it works out! Keep up the great content.
Can you please interview someone who talks about breeding with STS spray? or point me to the right direction. i’m just curious how breeding with only reversed female plants affects genetics and such. thanks for the great content!
9:00 Starting with both an f4 or f5 is going to be better than not.* Bc you will have two stabilized genetics that are crossing and will gain some hybrid vigor in the initial offspring. So you could have a good generation to grow out from; though that generation's offspring will be more of a craps shoot. With tomatoes and stuff they're waiting until like f7+ as far as I know.
In my understanding the F2 generation of seeds will have a much wider range of different phenotypes than the F1
I accidentally crossed a fem pb breath that nannered with a super lemon haze a purple punch and a unicorn pop all feminised , only got a couple beans from the punch and unicorn though
Good talk... 👍
Kinda felt like he spent the entire video saying "well your just going to take the plants your wanting to breed and find those traits your wanting to use or take a step back*... I mean yeah that's definitely good info and you guys did absolutely touch base on a few things..
But for me the discussion was waaaaaay different then say the episode #23 where you discussed very closely similar things with Vader.. but I'm mean you take Vader's personality and how he can easily speak on his knowledge as well as feel comfortable discussing these things as if it's second nature then compare that with this gentleman and again you have a separate conversation as well..
Either way like I said it was a good talk for sure...
Starting a OG Kush right now that I'm wanting to grow out and breed with a Bruce Banner x Kali Mist cross and I was thinking coming back to a Bruce Banner male.. but Both the cross's center of attention when you look it up on Supreme seed's describes it as an Awesome Morning Cup of coffee.. energetic and uplifting etc... And people everywhere that have tried the ol' godfather OG Kush knows it's as well a very social strain... I'm sure both of these if you went a little further in and got your darker trichomes cured it a little bit longer you be able to locate more of the couch lock effects but as far as Bruce Banner this has always been on of my favorites as well as ✌️ house strains (different dispensaries) out of Colorado.. Dopamine & another being Serotonin... I've always loved that good heavy mental and body high... And I'm not sure with these two combined yet that I'm wanting to try to steer away from the awesomeness of the great social strain with energetic and uplifting qualities...
Kinda leaning more towards trying to run it with say a Green Crack male and then from there localize of doing a few pheno and brother sister matches to bring it up to something more "stable" and steady..
Love watching the show...
It's always fun and I think the wide variety of people being brought on from high experience to your everyday successful beginners getting noticed is always a cool thing and educational especially when I get to see episodes like this one and with Vader
✌️🤓
I think he should send seeds to the USA. Not just west and east coast. But midwest and the Southwest. I think all 4 would be different.
In my opinion the reason why I do it is to help people if someone says they have some back it issues and found out that a strain does good for them then I will help them out and bring the cultivar into production so that they can have 100% clean medicine and know exactly what our inputs are sustainability is the key

Isn’t this guy the singer in Iron Maiden?
Id buy some beans from you Chris. Lol
Notification squad 🔥 💯💨
Chris do you actually use AC Infinity grow tents or anything else besides the fans?
Yup! Two grow tents, two inline fans, ducting, carbon filter, controller 69, oscillating fans, trimmers, shears... I might be forgetting something lol
@@GardenTalkwithMrGrowIt I wrote a detailed reply but decided not to crap on your sponsor after re-reading dude, just a little bitter here that's all. I'll keep it to myself :)
If i grew, I'd take weekly notes on each plant cultivar, including height each week, node spacing (are they nodes?), etc. ..and then follow up with notes when i sampled.
Maybe, i could then ID phenotypes (crudely) in veg stage and maybe get to stabilizing quicker.
...all hypothetical. I don't and can't grow. Interesting though.
Thanks for the good content.
2 dudes talking with cats on lap! Love it. Great info
