ChemDawg D BX 3

Thanks, Smoke2Js. The mother is now officially harvested and hanging above a pail to catch seeds. I should get an idea of how many generations before stability from this first grouping of seeds. If the male/female ratio is good (4/6) I'll be happy with that. I'll post a pic of the harvested seeds soon.

:peace:
 
chems a bitch to stabilize. ive been working with her for years now, im willing to bet cash ur looking at at least 5 gens before you see any real stability. it took 6 to get heavy d to a point where i can crack 100 seeds and only get 2 phenos and a couple random mutants. hopefully yours goes much faster. careful with the breeding route, its like heroin. the only time i buys seeds anymore is if its something i dont have and wanna use in a project, otherwise i get high off breeding my own . liberating feeling after giving banks 1000s of dollars. anyway looking spectacular mate!
 
Thanks again, cannasensei. What I'm hoping is that both the Chem D clone Canna Venture Seeds used and their garlic pheno father they pollinated it with have mostly common traits already. That is where I'm getting the hopeful 2-3 generation guess, along with the fact that it's been backcrossed 3 times (hopefully all to the mother). Now that you mention the seed thing, I WAS contemplating a change of parentage. I'm thinking that a Chem91/Skunk VA x Legend Killer Chem (got it in an online auction) might be harder to stabilize than Rezdog's CDDv1.1 so my original choice might stay the same. Just toss the plants out with the Skunk traits for 4 or 5 generations and I should be most of the way there. I don't know what Rezdog used in his Chemdog D version 1.1 so I don't know what to selectively breed out if I stay to my original choice. Hey I got your reps and note, and since you've done breeding before I should ask you what I was wondering. I have a plant (BC Bud Depot - Girl scout Cookies) which has a condition called allopolyploidy, a double chromosome that in nature generally doesn't hold going into the plants life. It happens as a side effect of excessive hybridization. In all the books I've read it says that the seeds resulting from a fertilization of a polyploidy plant will be infertile due to the second chromosome not being able to match up to another cell and start life. I also read that if a plant holds this condition it becomes autopolyploidy, which can make matching up of the second chromosome viable and fertile seeds possible. This plant has an offshoot that looks triploid, but the whole plant looks tetraploid (4 of the other 6 have triple nodes at the intersections also; only 1 appears normal). This plant was also born a twin, but the second died. What do you think the chances are of a cloning of the triploid offshoot (since it has been going this long it may be fertile), treatment with gibberillic acid to produce male parts, and pollination of a subsequent clone from the tetraploid mother leading to this double-chromosome condition holding? The worst one is like a bush because of the excessive branching yet it's only about 14-16" tall. It's like the thing is FIMming itself everywhere..... :thedoubletake:
 
there is only one way to fin out, first KEEP THE POLYPLOID.. i have only come across one which i didnt clone cause i knew no better and it was a "mutant freak", that mutant freak was the agent orange that gave me 1.4 lbs under a 600w light, id take lives to get her back lol.

id say the odds are descent that with a femd hybridization of the tri and the poly you would find a viable polyploid baring pheno, however as u mentioned the odds of a polyploid are low and more a side effect. so even if u doubled your chnces at one the odds are still very very low imo. but this is my kinda of breeding project so id request that you follow through in the name of science honestly. sight unseen i say u stand a 50/50 chance of getting something viable and a 1 in 1000 chance that one of the viable would display the desired characteristics such as polyploidism or tetraploidism. or even a tetraploid with polyploidal growing shoots lol. 6 plants in two branches? guerilla strain what? haha
 
I'm still tripping at this grow, cannasensei. I'm going to take a closer look at the 1 from the 6 GSC plants in the grow that I think is diploid (to make sure that it actually IS normal; it may have mutations, too). But the 4 plants that are showing 3 nodes and leaves at each intersection are at 8 weeks old today (18 days of 12/12) and are still not reverting back to normal. I named the 6th and worst one Polly; she has 2 branches that doubled on their own; at places there are 2 leaves and nodes on one side of the stems and a little bit up 2 more come out on the other side. A lot of her newer branches are normal, but to be honest, she looks diploid in some places, triploid in some, and tetraploid in others. With all the large fan leaves gone, she's still a dense bottle brush from all the extra growth. Yeah, she's a pain in the a$$ but she's not going anywhere. Neither are the clones I'll be taking from her soon..... :circle-of-love:
 
Sounds like a light leak.
 
have a great weedend PC
 
yep about 4 times a month SMH
got all KINKY yesterday:) Paranoia may destroyer:)

Hopefully a sign of good things to come.....

you really should enter a nug of the month contest PC
contenders for sure:)
 
I'm not really much of a competition type chimp. Maybe if one of those Blueberry nugs looks good I'll give it a try, but with my luck every master grower on the planet will enter a nug that looks straight from a High Times cover and the ol' chimp will be swagged upon, humiliated, and pelted with rotten mangoes as he comes in last place..... :thanks:
 
Damn thanks for the warning about the seeds cannasensei but you know how it gets. :)

Dr. Greenthumb - Bubba Kush (Katsu cut) S1 fem, 2 beans, 2 Benjamins, ouch. :(

I've been obsessed with this strain since I first heard of it. Got to admit, if I like this breeding thing it's the one to have.....
 
Note: Sorry it's been a while since a post, but there's been nothing new. I wanted to post today to note that I have jarred up the mother plant and will be picking 12 seeds to start out with. I'll post pics and quotes from a book I have as to why I chose the seeds I did soon when I germ my first seeds from this project. I'm going to label these generations as "Stb 1", "Stb 2", etc. (stabilization). I can say they are F4 (since the breeder backcrossed 3 times) but if I'm not doing the exact same thing he is, the offspring won't be F4 and F5. I'll start calling them F1, F2, etc. when both strains I am stabilizing are crossed together.

:peace:

Ur doing femmed crosses?

No; maybe later if I get something worth a damn. This first run is getting light-stressed right off the bat to get me a true female to start with. Everything from here on out is going to get the same to ensure that all females aren't hermies. Any thing along the way I like and I've got a good method for colloidal silver plus some gibberillic acid here to hit a true female with. I'll dump THAT pollen over a clone of the same cut to get fem seeds.
 
Tangs looking dank up in here! You've reassured me that the Dawg was the way to go - I'm using a Chem daddy as my common denominator for breeding. Been fretting, what with allll the choices out there but think I'll just shut up and be happy now :Namaste:
