Getting started, who to chose?

Ok so I have a few questions I need answered before I make this attempt. I'll start by listing what I have and see where it goes. OK so HSO Blue Dream cut from my last grow, Greenhouse Seeds Trainwreck seedling(White widow, A.M.S., and The Church haven't broke soil yet.), Just put in an order in hopes of breeding something. Here's what I bought, Black Creek Gardens Spyder AUTO reg (x10), Hazeman Seeds Cocoa Puffs reg (x12), UFO's were Dinafem Blue Thai and Deep Cheese, also Delicious seeds Cotton Candy, promo from hazeman got me White 88 G13/Hashplant reg(x6). so the question I will start with. In order to cross an Auto, Do I need to use male AUTO pollen or pollenate a female with pollen from another ind/sat? Keep in mind I understand the ratio will not be 100% even after backcrossing and inbreeding. I've been reading a lot of stuff on here about it all and I would like some useful info before I start this long ass process. OK now the next question. When backcrossing, do you use the same pollen from the same male each time on a new female? or do I need more males of the same genotype? that'll be it for now. until I get started anyways.

i got some bcg spyder on the way too for breeding with other autos. for those its best to just choose the best male and cross it back to a female spyder to keep it auto. to make a auto x photo and keep it autoflowering takes some time and work, the first gen will normally only show very few to no auto traits. keeping it in bred will make sure the offspring stays auto.

also dont count your chickens till your eggs hatch, you need to find the best possible males from the seeds you have so that in itself will determine what you end up crossing. if you choose a weak male your seeds wont be as good as they can be. i popped over 20 seeds this seeason and my male to female ratios were shit, i only have one good male to work with its a og kush x bubba kush x afghani, i had all these plans and no good males lol except for one. only choose the best or you are self sabotaging your project right from the beginning.

I mostly agree with galvatron but your starting with a bunch of hybrids. That is a ton of sifting through to find the true winners. Have a goal in mind AFTER flower unless you just dust all of them. Good luck with this.

Peace

I never pop everything at once. I just don't have the lighting for that. I was just looking into breeding for what's coming in. and wondering if I could use the spyder male pollen on my blue dream(growing mother for clones) really. I want to cross those and create an auto in the end. So...... Would it work like that and if so how? I mean would I have to pollenate the BD with the Auto spyder pollen, take a male from the progeny and pollenate a fem spyder(or another BD clone). that's where I get confused reading everything. because it says the second is a cross with a parent of the same genotype so I would assume another clone since they are identical. but I want to create an AUTO so I don't know if it would work out if I keep crossing back to the BD. I do understand that there will be time and effort and a lot of growth to accomplish what i'm looking for. so anymore advise or input would help greatly.

and I would isolate a fem for breeding. once pollen has taken its course(usually a few days right?) I will spray her down with water to wash away any remaining dust and return her to her friends. i'm not trying to grow crap. i'm just trying to create something I can call MINE hahaha
