Despite what has been said
there is no such thing as "Genetic Drift"
you can keep a clone producing exactly the same for years barring any kind of virus/disease/insect infestation
but with selfed seeds you are slightly tipping the balance by straining the DNA which may cause some traits to turn on and some to turn off as Selfing isnt exactly natural nor is Fem seeds in the first place

IMO
F-1 are the best seeds when looking for hybrid vigor and strong mother traits

Many times when breeding
the First generation to be passed down will exibit very strong genetics and will be very similar to mom
those next outcrossing would be F-2 and those will unlock the male and female traits causing a vast array of different phenos ....some wont even remotely look as those they are related....an extreme variety

I agree. I have 25 year old clones that still kick ass!!!

I only pull this baby out on special occasions
It was handmade out of a steer's horn back in the seventies by an old hippie.
It took over a year to make.
If you hit it right it only takes one or two hits. If you hit it wrong you still get stoned but you're done smoking for the night

I think you and I had a serious disagreement with someone else on this forum about this very subject

and that other person was adamant that genetic drift is a real thing
unfortunately science only backs up the theory of genetic bottlenecking hence there is a limit to IBL pushing the line to far may cause a genetic bottleneck and nature does its thing and creates all kinds of nasty
like low THC
true Herm
etc...
IMO

Ive had the genetic drift/loss of vigor conversation more than once on here...i usually use my g13 clone as an example. As ive become a better vrower over the years ive done better n better w that plant. I musta started 30 moms of it by now.

Yes it is.
The old cork wasted away so I'm in the process of making a new one.

If u havent already started makin a new one....i might suggest balsa wood to use as the cork. It might be a lil more durable. That what good quality fishing bobbers r made from. So u can probably just buy a bobber and whittle it down....

Fuck me. Idk what the deal is. Still only one has popped of the 4. One looked like it was gonna do something but still hasn't. Had them on the heating pad (somewhat consistently) for 3 days now.

Do I just cut my loses and start some more with better temp control or what :/

yes.. rough the seed up a lil on the husk, with a file. Put them in the freezer for the night next day put them in water to soak...
keep them in a humidity dome ON A SAUCER, with heating pad underneath. Put 1/8th in water in bottom of humidity dome. Put your folded wet paper towel on saucer. leave alone for 48 hrs.
the water in dome with pad underneath dome will raise the RH to 80% which will also keep it warm.. you want it close to 80 degrees and 80% rh for germination.

i know we covered this but i cant find it:mad:
how we preping expanded clay pebs
bleach or none.
i recall soaking in ro...maybe im not sure.
imo

i put them in a tote, and run water in the tote. I use a strainer for like mac and cheese, and dip them out to another tote. You could put holes in bottom of bucket, garbage can, etc and just run a hose thru them...
If you are reusing them, they have something, starts with an S or P... psythans or something close to that. Someone will come along and tell you exact
I just use bleach, then a good rinse afterwards...

they either got cold, cold/wet, or heat in house dried out your paper towel..
Try some more...

Pretty sure they got cold. Problem is my heating pad has an auto shutoff of like 30 minutes. So during the day I can dick around with it but at night it goes back down. I don't think the paper towel getting dry was the issue.

I took the seeds right from the mailbox (been sub-zero here for a couple weeks) and put them into lukewarm water so idk if that somehow shocked them or what. A 25% rate is depressing
