How to choose a mother n father

[barletta]

Naw we were all new. I still am sort of new.

Since I FIRST started I wanted to breed plants. When I start cracking the seeds for the first SuperSpice incross (and saving clones of the females mom's) I'll start a thread. I would just go drop 30 now, but I have seeds down like it's April 7, and it's just Feb 7... I don't have anymore room.

I'll prolly drop the seeds ~April 1. I'm going to be selecting for 1. strength 2. yield 3. speed. The goal is to have a true breeding heavy, funky, potent line that the majority of the plants finish under 9wks. Since the line started with delicious tasting/smelling plants, I assume the flavors will remain pretty constant. ALL PLANS SUBJECT TO CHANGE DEPENDING ON HOW THE SEEDS GROW!!!

So, I plan on growing ~30 seeds. I plan on keeping and runnign clones of all females. I will keep the clones that fit my criteria. I may be keeping clones of 10 plants, I may not keep any... Once I have a few female clones that display desirable traits, I will start cracking seeds looking for stinker males to use. I won't be keeping clones of the males.

I will end up keeping this first round of females for a few months while I test out the offspring. The clone(s) who's offspring I determine to be closest to the 'ideal' will be kept, and more seed made from them. Generation after generation. Test grow after test grow. Year after year, till I have a true breeding strain, and potato salad bukkits of seeds from work along the way...

Sooooooo it looks like i'ma b keepin close watch on alot of ur threads as usual haha i can't wait to c the progression n stabilization of ur SSH x Spice your plants look amazing as is so i can't wait to c wat u finally come up wit in the end....in many ways i see myself as a younger you(not sayin your old jus sayin i'm young) i see your passion n jus ur work ethics n i c wat i want myself to work like...i started smokin cannabis in my young teens as alot do n of course from it bein illegal i was never really tought anything(of truth) about it until after i smoked it i had no idea wat it was i jus had a it was a drug n drugs r bad(bein that i was 10 or so) mentality.Since i've been thru alot of "hard drugs" wen i was young, i was finally able to realize the dif between "drugs". to me i believe Cannabis can b used daily n never result to severe health or mental risks so i stick to cannabis bcus i see it as a god sent plant here as a present for us. Once i found out wat Cannabis really was it fascinated me in all ways i actually used to get mad bcus ppl would say "weed is all the same its weed" it made me wanna bak hand some ppl but ignorance is everywer jus gotta live wit it anyways i've wanted to breed since i first found out u could ever since i've been tryin to study the history of all strains n cannabis in general(thats wat lead me to this wonderful place) i'm of course not sayin i'm you haha or i wanna b u(sounds creepy) jus sayin ur an inspiration of course shanti n nev n howard n sam r my gods but knowin us ppl in the states can accomplish something givs motivasion but to get bak to something that could mayb help other growers n not just myself i was wonderin bout the SSH n the SS i'm goin to start a new thread since this one has gone completely off topic but yea in my thread jus wanna kno everything bout those 3 strains i think i'm gettin my mind set from wer i'm from i gotta get the SSH n the shark bein that i'm a grey shark haha but this will only make sense to me of course haha ty again barletta take it easy n chillax n burn one wit ur sav. dogs n hav a goodnite
