Welcome 5Decades. I feel the same, important to keep the older genetics preserved. Seems like now everything is polyhybrid crossed to polyhybrid and it is spiraling into loss of genetic diversity.

There are some great breeders out there, but now there are many sunpar mixed in that have no breeding goal aside from crossing one cultivar to all the other hype strains out there and calling it breeding. THC lab test also driving some to focus on a number and not the other qualities.

Some of my theories anyway. Welcome again.

yeah there are a few but it seems a lot of people want crazy high yield instead of quality

Also breeding for pretty pictures......
yeah some younger kids i know just want to brag about THC content and the stuff is dry as hell and no smell and not sticky!and i think they really have no idea what stuff was like 10, 15, 20. 30 years ago.. beavers haircut

......I have the same issue. I got pics into an album but cannot make pic appear on posting for thread. Just a web address. I have another feeler out there for help with this issue so if I can get a solution I'll pass it on. Help, anybody?
