Hello @MansionMarijuana ! Back crossing is a technique to fix certain traits by creating a population from the genetics of a single parent (the recurrent parent). This can be achieved by crossing one of the progeny (F1, F2,F3......) with one of the original parents (recurrent parent) which has the trait that you want. No matter if you have IBL, S1, BX, F1 or what ever a clone has exactly the same genetic code. Happy growing ! 👊

Now i got to ask back... how can a seed be a clone=? i thought cloning is taking cuttlings from a mother plant... and that means they are identic. AAAAh i think now i got it... you are planing in the future to take cuttlings/ clones from these=? , and like the Dude said clones and mother are identic

yeah man it shouldn't lose any of its genetrics, in fact you could say these babies are "clones" ... Good luck with the back crossing, should work wonders, just do it according the plan : it's straight forward. Good luck 🚀

If you clone the plant the clone should have the same genetics as the mother. Back crossing would require pollination and breeding for new seeds. Good luck! 👍

Any suggestions?These two are recovering from a Broken PH Pen, and stunted by too much recharge(mislabeled for hydro). We've fixed the issues and are back on track, we've finally started to see some stretch again! My question is - should I defoliate more, to encourage branching? Or just wait?

Should I cut off leaves or not?Hi everybody, I’m new here!
I have a question: my “daiquiri lime auto” plant is now more or less at the third week of flowering phase, I thought that maybe some of the leaves down near the groung or the “useless” ones could be cutted off.
What do you think? Thank u very much.

Late Defoliating or No?Ok, so I didn't do much defoliating or pruning ever, I'm on week 11, day 25 of a 49-63 day flower cycle. Should I do any type of defoliating now or just let it go to the end? What about just the big leaves or middle leaves? I think just let it go now, right? Thanks all

Too much trimming up top?I read defoliating throughout week 3 of flower is around the last time you should trim. I cleaned up the bottom real well, but Do you think I trimmed too many fan leaves up top? A lot my bud sites have one fan leaves and the nodes under it have none at all?
