Crossing African strains with European strains.
I was wondering if its wrong to cross our local landrace plants with hybrid strains.Is it maybe unethical to mix our pure genetics?My last grow was Nirvana White Widow and I ended up with a really nice male plant.I have been putting the WW pollin on to my best local female clone.The confusing part is that I am getting quite a few negative reactions from other local guys who feel I should not be messing with our local genetics.Any thoughts or comments ?

Namaste Hort1,
If your grower associates want keep some lines pure it does not mean that you must adhere to that program. Do it if you want! Cross them, experiment and discover something new. good luck, -BT

Maybe they are concerned that it will infect the wild population out there?
Gypsy's widow does hold some good males, but maybe they have a low opinion of European genetics in general. I know I sure do. |
