"whats outcross"[quote] Outcross means to use different genetics,when you outcross you get an F1,and if you inbreed a male and a female from the f1's you get an f2 ect... and ,when you see a strain listed as say g13 x hashplant(=outcross) that means the G13 is the mother and the hashplant is the father

Well, 60 days of veg is now completed. Last night the switch was made to 12/12. In the next 2 weeks little buds should start popping, and I'll get some more pix up then.
Thanks to all who've been following my first test grow thread.

so do you outcross, then backcross, to "recreate" a strain? In the end the male used ends up being irrelevant, or will there always be the genes to pop up every now and again??

This is Studley
For weeks he drove me crazy, not wanting to show his sex. Well, he's showing proud now. Is this a gorgeous male or what?
He's all excited, cause he can smell the ladies in the next room and he knows whats comin'....lmao
The female looks as nice as he does. Unfortunately, pix under the HPS look like shit, and since they're in 10 gal buckets, its a pain to move them.
Buds started popping in the last 3 days.
She is a very full lady, nice stature, with those beautiful, long, slender sativa leaves.
So far, these have been a joy to grow. No fussines what so ever. They really seem to love the nutes. I started with FF Big Bloom, then switched to Pure Blend Bloom last week. Also using EJ Micro Blast & Catalyst, and Maxi Crop.
In the big buckets they only need 1 watering per week, sweeeeet!
