Hense why Weird's earlier misunderstanding about "using quantitative genetics" was so very laughable - because the methods I am outlining here outside of marker assisted technology, are the most efficient including taking into account quantitative genetics, while it is really he, who wanders around in Mendelianville...
is it true Tom ? quantitative gentics have no value at all
if there not found in Mendelianville, ie "HEMP" :biggrin:

we have an understanding of quantitative genetics, beyond that there is no way to "use" ing them. We use selection methods which take into account the complexities of inheritance and genetic phenomenon. We do that by setting our egos and magic art aside and letting the best families win out of many while we run through proven selection method cycles as I am attempting to describe here. Other than that, we do not "use" quantitative genetics. It was just a new word he wanted to toss around, and he made an ass out of himself by doing so in the way that he did, no biggy.

Larry, not sure quite how to answer (you tryna fuck w/me?) so I will give you both. I find 1 of 20 female individuals from the Haze I maintain to be exceptional. I could lie about it, replace it with a ringer, or just flat out steal something else, and probably make you happier I bet, and even fill you with a bunch of ridiculous notions while I was at it,,, but it's just not my style man.
Tom sorry for comeing off wrong, i would like to try you're
haze, i just thought that it would be more like popping 100
beans for that 1 ? thanks for the understanding ! all of
this thred is pretty much over my head and at times find it
hard to comperhend, i still try to listen and absorb everything
in hopes one day it will make me a better grower :ying:
ps Tom is there a X18xHaze ? if not would you ?
Thanks and :respect:

I like to closet breed when I get a nice male I've made several nice polybrids and have gifted them in bean form that's what I do. I feel because I've been gifted by some of the older respected closet breeders I owe it. owe it to pay it forward to the sick no cost but that's me. I don't wish or ever intend to make a cent off it granted not all are winners but the majority are. I feel that's my part

and the polybrids I've made with Deep Chunk crosses are very nice

Yes, that is where this thread started out, with folk clueless of the complexities of drug cannabis. Some of you guys think that you know where you can get better than that - you are cheap dates. What you are getting is more middle plant percentages, and a whole lot of bullshit to fill your mind with too. Try as you may, you will not turn drug cannabis into corn, not unless you are a blinded, cheap date. Sigh, but gimmee gimmee gimmee, wish in one hand and crap in the other, then see which gets filled first, just don't get all offended, when we all tell you your wishes, are nothing but crap too, while we giggle watching you scramble to get it all out of your hands :)..

For thousands of years guys, be it working dog or drug cannabis or strawberries. You do not get to change the percentages of the truly exceptional, not as a breeder, not as a customer. We breed the exceptional in hopes of increasing the percentage of good. This is the truth of quantitative genetics as it pertains to conventional breeding methods, it's been with us forever, and it's not going away anytime soon.

Do not leave me a huge pile of shit to clean up, then call me rude when I bring a shovel, instead of a fucking feather duster.

I have been imagining what this debate might have sounded like 4,000 years ago in China, Persia, India, or Russia.

Tom you suffer from delusions of grandeur,there is no talking to you.You display classic bi-polar personality traits perhaps borderline schizophrenia although I assume the different sides of your personality are actually quite similar which is not all that uncommon for someone with hyper cerebral activity such as yourself so it's more a few different versions of the same person as opposed to two individual polar opposite personality's you would see in advanced schizophrenia and early stages of dementia.I'd say there are meds for it but they treat the symptom not the disease.Your views on breeding bring to light similarities between you and a famous German politician from the WW2 era in a strictly clinical sense only he was trying to achieve a much more ambitious goal, a despicable, homicidal idea,but a ambitious goal.You get the point I'm sure. if not I'll put it poetically. The beauty in this world is found in the unknown.It is the imperfections that add all the character.I hope this one was of great amusement for you.

you are fucking so annoying. You know nothing about plant science so you revert to the one thing yo do know something about, but then make yourself look extremely stupid in that field too. You draw quick conclusions about a person you have never met which is something looked down on in your field.

GWB, why are you not banned? I dont get it. You offer nothing to icmag. you are just a troll.

Oh, and Tom Hill Has contributed more to the field of cannabis science and to icmag in one day than you have or will in your entire life.

Weird, and yes, all of you others, in proffering this resistance without being able to close the fucking deal, all fall into this category. You are arguing nothing but against all known scientific knowledge on the matter, playing fools. I do it sometimes too, but not with cannabis, that subject is much too important to me, to us, whether you have come to terms with that or not.

Tom, people love to ignore science. Most Americans have a very fragile little mind protected by a huge ego. To admit they are wrong and learn something for the purpose of growing their mind would burst their bubble and destroy their fragile narcissistic egos leading them to insanity. I experienced it quite a bit growing up in the land of the southern baptist. These people are insecure and sad.
