Need advice before i jump in - Marijuana Strains and Breeding - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Hey there,

Been growing for over 10 years and want to do my first breeding project in 2018.
I landed on a site called stainly and found not only seeds, but pollen and some rare clones. I believe this can be a really good starting point (clones or pollen options are attractive).

It looks almost too good to be true and I wanted to ask around before sending a request to someone on there...

Has anyone used it and would you recommend ?

Any other recommendation welcomed.

Thanks

Clones will have parasites.

Pollen may or may not be viable.

Both are a waste of time and effort unless you have/built a relationship with the sender.

Seeds are all you need.

Makes sense but this is true for any forum or site I guess...

i'm more curious about the site. I know what to look for (pest and pathogen) when I receive the clones... I'll do inspection regardless of the source...

The best and funniest part of breeding imho is selecting your own parent plants! Grow them from seed, observing, taking notes...now you are going to start breeding like the new school of "breeders". There are many seedbanks that offer landraces and rare varieties, you dont even have to strain hunt now, why are you interested in that? I dont understand(not trying to be an asshole)
Its up to you of course. Too many risk of pests, diseases, dead polen...and as i said start from your own seeds( the best part), if you just want to do an elite×elite just do it

If I was starting a breeding project I would start with some seed packs of two or three different inbred varieties.
Clones? Would find my own keeper plants to get some clones, never from an untrusted shop.

Cheers

thanks for the answers guys. Appreciated.
It all makes sense.
Was only thinking, since I'm not really experienced with breeding (only studied theory, never applied), i could take a shortcut to practice and fail a bit, rather than starting from top notch seeds and waste them

thanks
