I could help you with the basics I have done 2 semi successful breeding programs, but if you go under advanced marijuana cultivation section go to very very top above everything there is a section called "breeders paradise" that is where you want to start a thread. You should get more help there. If not, maybe I can answer some questions 4 ya. Good luckHow we doing guys was wondering if anyone could school me on how to breed my own seeds been something I’ve been keen on for a while just want to know the ins and outs from one of you masters of the arts , much appreciated

start with a controlled space, buy a grow bible to learn how to build it and follow directions until perfected. Now go to chapter 4 to learn how and when to pollinate plants. good luck and know this:
many commercial breeders still dont know how to breed , or build a controlled room, or read a book evidently maybe

I have a book somewhere with a huge breeding section. If you just want to cross two strains and keep a mother to clone, that's simple. Just need a male and female in flower. If you are trying to make a stable hybrid that produces consistant quality seed stock, well that's where shit gets complicated. I have synthesized dozens of compounds, grown shrooms, and 21 years of cannabis cultivation, and there were parts in that book on breeding that confused the hell out of me! I guess my point is it can become extremely complex. Oh, be careful with that pollen. I have unintentionally pollinated my reg. flowering room, and I thought I had everything under quarantine. I changed clothes, and washed every time I entered. Still wasn't enough.

Hi Guys,
I'm what guys call a pollen chucker. Not to breed for some mythical strain...but to get a great clone Momma which meets all my needs. Sometimes I'll make a cross to preserve genetics, like if you had a clone only female and you crossed it to a male of known parentage. It's tricky assessing potency on a male. DJ Short wrote that he would dry and smoke male bud to evaluate and get the best male genetics. Or use breeding history...what quality of offspring a male will produce. If you are willing and have room to keep male "Mothers".
All I do anymore is an occasional cross to meet a goal. Like crossing C-99 to a landrace sativa to shorten flowering time.
F1's with hybrid vigor are my favorite to grow.
