Okay so,
You get a male and female plant, cross them, and get seeds.
You grow the seeds, find the best plants of the bundle(female AND male?)..and what do you do after that?
Yah I read that thread, but it's about basic breeding. I want to know specifically about backcrossing.
My second question is, don't you find the genetic characteristics that you want to keep on female plants that can't be physically crossed with the mother plant? Do you have to choose good males from the F1 generation and cross them or is there something I'm just missing in this procedure?
Hello there so I've been breeding for a while I've got like 60 crosses done and another whole bunch im working on there's alot to it but like these others have said reading and studying can help you so what I did I pheno hunted for a long time and then I crossed strains toghter that I wanted to breed toghter I made f1 seeds I took clones from the mother prior to breeding her then once I got the f1 seeds from the parents I took a good male that I pheno hunted for I bred back to the original mother well clone of the original mother to start the backcrossing process you could also reveg the original mother which I've done then re bred her with a male but other way that is better and less time consuming and I back crossed 2 to 3 times got stable strain and then I like to keep mine as regular seeds but I have made feminzed seeds to and its not hard to do it all once you learn it no one is perfect everyone does it drifferenf do it the way it works for you buddy and there's nothing wrong with asking questions but yes reading up on stuff your self is good to I've delt with some really good breeders that have been around for years and I've got my hands on some killer genetics so I mean I've been busy and what really made me get in to it was my unlce God bless him he was an amazeing grower/breeder he saved so many genetics that he collected from back in the early 60s untill when he passes away a few years ago he left my my brother so many seeds some were all mixed so I've been pheno hunting and found some awsome phenos so yeah my next project is creating a new skunk strain and it's gonna smell so skunky it will knock your socks off lol you gonna have to bath in tomato juice after smoking it ill be working hard and for a while on this one anyways have a great day and keep growing and breeding my fellow growmieOkay so,

What do you backcross it to? The original male and female plants are long gone..they had to flower to make the seeds.
Please help, I want to start making my own strains soon. What are other methods of breeding?
All future info. is much appreciated.
