Hell yea, that's what I'm talking about. Cellular isolates, nice job. No question in my mind that some spots on the plants are hotter than others. Often it seems to be the leading tips, but not always. The inter noding is superior in these spots. Better inter noding equals more cola's, more budding rows, ect... Future generations remember that sort of complexity; even if it's only fractional. Little fractions add up over time.
I guess what I'm suggesting is this; everyone knows the tongue, or the loin offers some of the choices, tender meats. A foot, or a extremity cut, is not going to offer up the same quality, as a rib, or a center cut. Always keep those most choice cuts close; some of those can become propagating stocks.
Keeping original mothers may matter; but isolating good cuts is artwork IMO. It can (probably) be used to tease things out, I suspect, if it's done well enough, and (if) you get lucky, with timing, and selection. The plant is always in a state of flux, constantly evolving it's dna/rna as it's growing out, (new cells created) and interacting with the biota, it's metabolites, enzymes, precursors, nutrition (fuel) and environmental stimuli.
On that note; does this look like polyploid traits? Seems to have bled though that WW/GG cross I did awhile back, and I'm seeing it showing up in some of the next generation. What's your thoughts on what I'm looking at here.
I dunno, IME, given proper care and time, even the gangliest(?) get with the program... However, taking cuts from newer growth is the ticket to cuts that thrive in a hurry.Here's some stuff in this vein; My guess is the latter, the donor cells are different.... The first part could be in flux with some of what I describe above, so it's perhaps a little of both.
Scientists have known for some time that 'clonal' (regenerant) organisms are not always identical: their observable characteristics and traits can vary, and this variation can be passed on to the next generation. This is despite the fact that they are derived from genetically identical founder cells.
They found that observable variations in regenerant plants are substantially due to high frequencies of mutations in the DNA sequence of these regenerants, mutations which are not contained in the genome of the parent plant.
'Where these new mutations actually come from is still a mystery,' said Professor Harberd. 'They may arise during the regeneration process itself or during the cell divisions in the donor plant that gave rise to the root cells from which the regenerant plants are created. We are planning further research to find out which of these two processes is responsible for these mutations. What we can say is that Nature has safely been employing what you might call a 'cloning' process in plants for millions of years, and that there must be good evolutionary reasons why these mutations are introduced.'
Why plant 'clones' aren't identical
A new study of plants that are reproduced by 'cloning' has shown why cloned plants are not identical. Scientists have known for some time that 'clonal' (regenerant) organisms are not always identical. Now researchers believe they have found out why this is the case in plants: the genomes of...www.sciencedaily.com
Monozygotic (identical) twins are natural clones. Clones contain identical sets of genetic material in the nucleusāthe compartment that contains the chromosomesāof every cell in their bodies. Thus, cells from two clones have the same DNA and the same genes in their nuclei.
Monozygotic twins form from a single zygote that divides into two separate cell masses, each giving rise to an independent individual.
So in my mind, that means only true "clones" come from what they call tissue cultures. Wouldn't that be cool to lift this off the ground as a tool bud? What do you think? It's not rocket science. lol

Lovely... I use a magnifier app, on my phone, to try to get those kind of shots... But they just don't compare to a good camera and lens.
These are just the plants that I have in soil.

I have others, in rooters, that are not on that list.
I culled 32 a couple of days ago...

Yet you won't split or boil your rapid rooters ......very suspicious
That's another reason it's important to share things.The purge gets me everytime. I always do it mid flower then I have the best finish of the purged strain I canāt get back
These seeds were dropped after I joined this forum.

They are:
5 - Chem Dog 2017
6 - Guava D
11 - Mad Dawg
2 - Disco Funk
Figured I should start a grow diary to document them, and other things cannabis in my life.
They were started in my intro thread found HERE
Mr Budman, those baby plants look, I mean looked, great. While I'm not familiar with disco funk and mad dawg (chemdog cross?) I'm familiar with, but never grew Guava.These seeds were dropped after I joined this forum.

Iāve felt the same but after seeing your generosity itās upped my generosity as well. You never know, someoneās life you change today might come back and change your life tomorrow. Generosity can go a long way.That's another reason it's important to share things.

Good, I'll get on it and start investigating it more toughly, I just wanted to get your thoughts on it first. As long as we got the specimens, then it should be a go, I can't see any issues. Like you said, having the optimum health parameters and whatnot in line is of paramount importance, cause preserving new growth in an optimum state is ideal, I would think.I dunno, IME, given proper care and time, even the gangliest(?) get with the program... However, taking cuts from newer growth is the ticket to cuts that thrive in a hurry.
Tissue culture interests me... But moreso for vaulting things long(er) term... Maintaining eighty cultivars in a cloning cycle, when you're only flowering a dozen (or so) at a time, is kinda ridiculous.

That's a big fact Trustfall. You just never know.

The farm reminds me of the federation; full of all sorts of different lifeforms, that (usually) get along.Together maybe we can all defeat corporate/commercial weed
All is say was lol for the longest time.Just about how I look at things these day, it usually depends on how I'm feeling at any given moment. Laugh, or help, or both.
But, if your waiting on the SPD, I say, don't hold your breath too long...
