Observers' 2x4 Space

sorry, did u have a bad trip?
Could have been better, but could've been worse?
Idk i got all fkd up and lost in a snowstorm in the middle of Portland Maine. Thrown out of our Uber and didnt know where we were cause we only just moved there a few weeks prior.
This was new years so the lights and shit were wild and i was just tripping balls. Didnt like it.

Lmao

Goofball

You gotta be in you're room, safe, comfortable, to trip.
 
Drip system has basically been a "failure" so far, adjustments needed, not even gettig the seeds to pop lmao.

Not using the drip system for now of course, handwatering till they're ready for a schedule I suppose.

Little learning curve on the rw but I'm figuring it out.

Just a air line in the bucket, bubbling. Is all, and a fuck ton of 34% h2o2


Does not take much water at all.

Just mLs.

Soaking cubes seems bad advice, unless you shake some WC out afterwards I suppose

Better to dip them in a solution for a few seconds.

My 2c, depends on the scenario to I suppose.

Wether clone or seed start
 
Algae likes the oxygen, but hypochlorous acid could/should take care of that
 
Mutation or so

Getting more organized.

Probably should reset these RESs and do something else with this drip set up, taking their sweet time coming up

Unless I stalled em via dry out

Fuck around and Learn/experience/ try things with the 2x4 space.

Gonna get the 5x5 reset soon and do a "proper" grow.

Get back to breeding/cultivation and further educating my self, Growing.

One I snapped in half is still kickin.

Another kratky style cup, seeing what happens.

not had too much time for the plants, family comes first.

maybe tomorrow i can spend some more time with them and maybe do those RES changes.

just giving them mLs of Solution a few times a day, for now.
 
F1: The Hybrid Harmony

Imagine two contrasting cannabis strains, like a high-THC indica and a low-THC, mold-resistant sativa. When you crossbreed them, you get the F1 generation. These first-generation hybrids are like beautiful blends of their parents, often showcasing:

  • Hybrid vigor: Boosted growth, yield, and resilience thanks to the combination of diverse genes.
  • Unpredictable traits: A mix of parental characteristics, with some dominant and others recessive, making each F1 plant unique.
Think of it as a mosaic painting, where each tile represents a gene from either parent. The F1 generation is a vibrant masterpiece of genetic diversity, but like any art form, it requires further refinement.



F2: Unveiling the Hidden Colors

Now, let's breed those F1 beauties amongst themselves. This creates the F2 generation, where the genetic mask comes off, revealing the hidden recessive traits:

  • Greater diversity: The F2 offspring exhibit a wider range of characteristics, showcasing all possible combinations of parental genes. Some might resemble grandparents, while others might display entirely new traits.
  • Stabilization challenges: Finding plants with consistent, desirable traits becomes trickier due to the increased genetic variability.
Imagine the mosaic now – it's a kaleidoscope of colors and patterns, some familiar, some unexpected. While the F2 generation offers exciting possibilities, it requires careful selection and further breeding to isolate and stabilize desired traits.

F3: Honing the Masterpiece

By selecting the best F2 plants and breeding them again, you enter the F3 generation. This is where the real sculpting begins:

  • Increased trait stability: With each generation, desirable traits become more fixed, allowing you to breed strains with predictable characteristics.
  • Line development: You can start to establish stable "lines" within your breeding project, ensuring consistent offspring with the desired qualities.
Think of the mosaic now – specific colors and patterns become prominent, forming a coherent picture. The F3 generation is where your artistic vision truly starts to take shape.

Backcrossing: Refinement with a Twist

Sometimes, you might want to fine-tune a specific trait from a parent plant. That's where backcrossing comes in:

  • Reintroduce desired traits: You breed an F1 or later generation plant back to one of its parents. This increases the presence of specific parental genes, allowing you to refine certain characteristics.
  • Maintain hybrid vigor: Unlike purebred crosses, backcrossing retains the benefits of hybrid vigor, making it a valuable tool for strain development.
Imagine the mosaic – you're adding specific tiles from the parent palette to enhance the overall artwork. Backcrossing allows you to make targeted adjustments while preserving the unique blend of your hybrid creation.
