Are you saying that you cloned from one single plant for 7 years? Or did you clone from clones from the one original plant? And if so did you see any difference in the strain after a few years or was everything as the first set?Ill give you an example from my past. Shiva. I had 10 beans. Popped them all. 2 were male. 8 were female and produced high quality flower that you couldn't tell apart so I kept the two that had the biggest buds (all plants were the same size going into flower). Ran those two for about a year and noted that one rooted faster than the other so I narrowed it down to that one. Ran the fuck outta that strain for over 7 years in multiple grows, made a fortune.
Clone from clones, no degradation, moms kept for about a year each time.Are you saying that you cloned from one single plant for 7 years? Or did you clone from clones from the one original plant?

Any questionable looking plants I got, I dumped! No wasting time!LEts examine the genetic drift theory.
You cut 100 clones. If a mutation happens would it happen to all of them? Would the mutation likely be severe and cause unhealthy plant thats just not viable? Lots of questions there. I don't see it as being an issue.
phenotypedidn’t see any difference in the strain
Mind sharing why you wouldn’t? Also what breeders would you recommend then?I've never grown rqs, I can't see myself getting their seeds ever tbh
I don't know shit, not gonna act, sorry.Mind sharing why you wouldn’t? Also what breeders would you recommend then?
I like that analogy...Personally I think that to get that one rare plant you have to shotgun at least 100 beans. The more tickets the better chance of hitting the winning number.
If I grow these 90 royal gorillas as single colas do you think I will cause any issues with pheno selection?Think of a strain as children from the same parents. Think of a phenotype as an individual child from those parents.
