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! 👍
