Hey all, I just wanted to give some props to Cannaseur (www.Cannaseur.com) for great service and speedy delivery. I ordered 20 seeds on Mar. 24, and I just got 30 seeds delivered in one of the best stealth packages ( which I didn't have to pay extra for) that I've gotten so far. Good service, choice genetics, and quick service. This is my first order from them but not the last.

No, I won't describe the method. Trust me, it was cool.

question for u guys, regular vs fem seeds? what is the fault in fem seeds? seems to me if your not breeding regular seeds are useless. thoughts?

Ive been collecting just females seeds recently and thats only because I wanted a nice selection, however im looking hard and long at a pack of regular auto's to breed so i have a ton of seeds for fast bumper crops. So i guess it depends on what you want to do and how far down the rabbit hole your willing to go. personnely im thinkning a pineapple express x auto ak47 would be a tasy treat. id call it the ak express lol thats my next project

Well, that's one way of thinking about it, but the thing about regular seeds is since you are working with a cross of one plant against another, you have a better chance of finding multiple genotypes of a strain as opposed to a single good female that is duplicated thousands of times. for example, I bought a pack of Qrazy Train that is a cross of Qwerkle and Trainwreck. I got 5 distinct genotypes, two that purple, two STRONG Trainwreck leaning ones, and one that was OK. So, I kept the best purple strain and I'm going to make fem seeds for storage.

If I sold them as fem seed, you could experience what I felt was the best, but what if you really like the genotype that I let go?

I think that if you just want to try a strain, fem is the way to go, but if you want to explore a strain and hunt for rare genotypes, you need regular seeds. Fem seeds also good for crosses of your own. Once I get my champion male, I'm going to grow out all my fem seeds and cross it with my male and use that to build my own strains.

Auto flowering is not an easy trait to pass on. It is a recessive trait so you need to really work on multiple levels of breeding to keep the recessive gene in there. Little trickier than regular breeding.

Good luck though. Read up on Ruderalis genes.

looks like my wanted list still.

With fem seeds you might be getting something different than the original outcome. A lot of strains are hybrids using a specific male and female or something so how do they get those fem seeds? They either self pollinate the female or take female pollen from the same line as the male they use I guess but either way could result in different plants then the regular line. A lot of strains now are only available in feminized form so that doesn't really apply and there's some killer fems around. I have only grown a couple and haven't had any intersex problems yet with any of them.

just found this on auto breeding i must give credit to its author custom

Autoflower and Ruderalis gene breeding

Custom's Auto/Ruderalis Breeding



For those of you interested in breeding Autoflower seed stck or even creating your very own Auto hybrid can be a tricky task.
Lots of question's rise to the table when using these genetic's.

Were did Auto's come from?
Auto flowers came from breeding in Ruderalis genes from common roadside hemp that can be found just about everywere in the world in one region or another.
The original auto flower breeders were in Mexico.
They simply breed Ruderalis hemp with there mexi mid grade to produce a strain that they could crop three times a year rather than only once.
This only increased the production rate and import to the US via gulf and road cartel and magnified profit gains.

A little about todays auto's:
Ruderalis characteristics were breed into strains such as NYCD,AK-47, etc.. Then back crossed several times among auto parent and non auto parent in order to create a stable line, of autoflowering hybrids that are high in THC, Flavor and tric production.Very much like there reg strain(non auto) counter parts, but with the same hemp/Ruderalis flowering traits included.

What is Ruderalis?
Simply put ; Ruderalis is the Autoflowering characteristic or geno type. For this write up, i'll just call these jokers auto's to keep it real....lol

What Happen's if I Breed an auto flower with a reg strain?
Well your first guess would be that you would have some crazy Autoflowering hybrid right!? Wrong!
only 20-30% of your offspring will be autoflower and you knock the THC levels down.
you must back cross or create the backcross lineage through breeding and inbreeding.
Its very tricky to do.

How do you breed two auto's to make a hybrid or seed stock?
Same way you breed regular strains.
Grow all the autoflowers you have and choose the very best female and best male.
Breed them.
Your offspring will be more stable then the parents if its the same auto strain being crossed to make seed stock.
The variations between offspring will only get less over time and stablize out into a solid strain every time you grow it.

To create a auto hybrid just take a auto,
for example Lowryder Diesel and cross it with a different auto..
Lets say..Easy Ryder(lowryderx Ak-47)
now choose a male from one and a female from the other..
store male pollen after breeding the first time..
now grow offpring and choose your fav female hybrid, one thats high in tric production, smell, yield etc, and backcross it with the stored male fathers pollen..
repeat the proccess 4-6 times and you now have a very stable or close to stable autoflower hybrid.
just keep that original fathers pollen and your backcrosses become a snap
