Strain Guide

[markscastle]

Is there a real good strain guide on here? I thought the old Over Grow guide was here some place but maybe Not?

I think there is a pic or thread from overgrow on here as well as a cpl more, but not 100% on that. I vaguely remember stumbling across it some while back. Though I do think there should be a new one with only true-breeding strains in circulation that people on the farm are actually growing/breeding.

No strain can be totally "truebreeding" they can only be "truebreeding" for certain characteristics, e.g. in some plants a single allele causes purple buds. A plant which has two copies of that allele breeds true for that trait but no plant can ever be entirely true breeding, also plants showing a recessive allele in their phenotype most likely have two alleles for it so all their offspring will be carriers but that's not ususally considered "true breeding".
Since no plant can be entirely homogenous (and you can never account for mutations, epigenetics and environmental factors) and will have recessive and dominant traits when outcrossed (or even crossed to a different member of the same strain). no plant is flat-out "true breeding".
(I've been working on a little guide to Cannabis breeding and now I can't seem to stop myself correcting everything lol :sorry: )

But yeah a strain guide would be fun :-)

Especially if we know the plants parental lines, you could really group them up for comparison etc.

Yeah I was using the term loosely. I just meant it to mean have strains that are somewhat stable and somewhat true breeding.

Mark when younfind that can you link that thread here?

Cool was just saying remember that truebreeding is a verb and so when talking about a strain it needs an "object" after it :p

"This strain is truebreeding for ...."

Solid point what happened to the overgrown facts at the top , i use seedfinder.eu but there is rarely new updates only the old strains but i suppose keeping up with insane amount of strains these days would be quite a task , very curious myself if there are any strain data bases that are current or somewhat current ..

Might this be it?

that is a list of a bunch of different strain guides , we need to get it all in 1 log like seedfinder just constantly updated maybe jason king aint busy with cannabibles

The biggest problem is most strains aren't in seed banks they're with private breeders/growers, many strains share names too.

(and apparently this is the info from overgrow? http://www.onlinepot.org/grow/800straingentics.htm )

 

[soserthc1]

yes it is used to be at the top of the of the forum here also .... but 800 is way low now there is 5017 listed at seedfinder and its rarely updated - I know its alot of work but would be a great hobby a good site and advertising dollars to be made ....

Click on ''growfaq'' at the top of the thcfarmer page to access that stuff,not sure what your looking for exactly mark,is this it?

 

[monkeymun]

It would have to be updated regularly to make it optimal too. With the number of new strains being produced, it would be a hefty guide.

 

[delae632]

The growFAQ is only showing up on the thcfarmer style right now and not the overgrow style. I believe it used to show up on both.

Thanks for posting a link FW.

I would love to see a family tree style strain guide

I like that.

I'm aware this is a little old but there is now an updated seedfinder with well over 6000 strain separated by clone only and legendary strain along with a genome family tree for most and a shit ton of new breeders .... Read a few of riots strains also there a riot to read

That didn't come out quite right

You can getA true breeding plantAfter 15 to 20Growing cyclesAfter that it becomesA true plan of its ownI've done it 3 timesAnd as true plants for me to batch

 

[eldonknutson]

That didn't come outQuite rightI meant to sayAfter 15 to 20Times growing on a plantIt'll become a true strainBut there's alwaysPanda 20%Or so of the plantsAre super plantsAnd the rest vary inQuality

That didn't come out quite right
