Yes,wild hemp can be crossed on other strains and in many ways it is preferable to crossing those other strains with ruderalis. Bigger plants,more production,good thc content,and resistance to native pests,fungus,and diseases.

If you cross a strain with ruderalis you will be making a a variation of a auto flower which diminishes the production of buds intensely, since it is now a time sensitive plant not a photo period plant. Good thc content.... 1-2% is good thc content? Here's a little something from when Nevile experimented with crossing strains with ruderalis.

Early efforts

"Perhaps the most known efforts to incorporate Ruderalis traits into drug hybrids are those of Nevil, proprietor of the original Seed Bank, and the person largely responsible for the original dispersion of many of today's drug varieties.

Nevil experimented with crossing Ruderalis strains to plants such as Mexican, Skunk#1 and several Indicas, in hopes of combining the early flowering of the Ruderalis with the potency and flavor of the others.

Although some of Neville's crosses matured much earlier than previous marijuana strains, they tended to be low in potency, unstable in terms of maturity, and often sported buds that were leafy with shrunken calyxes."

LMFAO.......you guys are funny......hemp has been growing wild in various places in the U.S. since the founding of the country. It's all over the place by RR tracks in the mid-west. Go ahead and waste your time messing with it if you want to, but trust me....it has almost zero THC and is of NO value in the Cannabis market at all, for breeding either.it will do is hermie and grow huge, even if you cross it. Problem is, in most places where it grows wild, it is illegak and carries the same charge as regular weed. Good luck with that!!
Hum,sounds like the same things they said about those tiny worthless plants from the Soviet Union that have almost no THC.You know,the ones they call Ruderalis.Glad you got a good laugh from our posts,because yours gave me a good laugh too.I'm sure you have used wild hemp in your breeding program for many generations and can back up your statements about how worthless it is.
That gosh darn Ruderalis, all it will do is make em hermie on ya !!!

It's an eye opening experiance to see that when you post something it only takes minutes before its misconstrued and folks are insinuating that your "taking plants that belong to someone"! Hemp is wild, If you grow wild hemp and call it a garden right on with ya badself. I wonder if experimentation with little known info ever got humans anywhere? It was an innocent post about a patch of wild hemp i found on a riverbank that just happened to be near a working milk farm. If you wanna turn that into a page outa the enquirer go ahead after all at the end of the day its your story you tell it! Silly farmers going whacky on my post!

You made a very good point and good luck with the breeding experiment,I hope ya go through with it.This kind of thing happens a lot, when the OP doesn't have many posts yet,the "experts"chime in with all that good advice or pull the thread off topic. Again,Good Luck and have fun !

A few studies are being done with hemp plants having more cbd and other cannabinoids, but low thc.
