a male from one strain... and a female from a different strain...

how do you cross breed Caucasians and African Americans?
or cross breed pit bulls with chiuaua's?

the story always seems to be the same.
 
I knew i would get a reply like this ,,, tried it and it doesnt work i just get mostly what the mother plant was ,, i tried crossing critical jack with great white shark (male) and i just got more critical jack

and you can graft a plant of one strain to another plant of a different strain, (difficult to do) but you would still end up with a branch of weed A and end up with the rest of the plant being weed B.. in no way will grafting 2 strains together create a new strain....

unless you graft a male branch to a female plant and allow it to pollinate itself.

well to let you know,

the plant only takes on 12.5% of another strain each time you back cross it.
so if you want a 50/50 strain youd have to back cross the same strains 4 times.

you do in fact have a cross bred strain. you just dont know any better.

SOme plants have powerful dominant traits, but if had more plants to choose from (hundreds), or flipped it and used a gws female and cj male, you'd find some in there you's like. The more population the better

let me dig for a minute and TRY to find what i was researching before.

i know its like taking a clone and splicing it into a branch or node section of a host plant and then the guy uses a ziploc bag to place over the grafted clone like area to hold in moisture for a few days or a couple of weeks. i cannot exactly recall...

by the way, dont be afraid to add +rep to those of us who have provided you with useful information. it only takes a second.
