Yes as stated by others crossing and pheno hunting is fairly complicated.... You may cross both and end up with like zero ruderalis genes and no longer have autoflowers.. Or you may end up with more. It's complicated and hard to explain. Someone might type up the whole thing but it's not as simple as get two plants, cross them and then they have the best traits of both..

Your crossing plants as well that are already very hybridized so there's a lot of genetic information there.

Hello.. Hope you are well.. The idea is to do mothers and fathers from both sets.. Re-breed/bk crossing again and again using best phenos and continue until she reach her best and keeps her stability inside her.. Stay safe n gud luck.. 👍🍀

Hi there, i don't think it'll be easy to predict which way around which genetic traits are being taken over when you cross them.. If you look at the principles of inheritance (Gregor Mendel) and especially the "alleles" you will see that it will take a couple of generations until specific wanted traits really manifest themselves. I think in the beginning it will be quite a lot of hit and miss, and you should then use the follow-up generations with the best traits that you like for further crossing and strengthening the genetics. You might want to read up on this to understand the various traits, if you decide to really go along this journey and get the results you hope for: https://www2.palomar.edu/anthro/mendel/mendel_1.htm happy growing!
