RE: Growing Cannabis - Watch Out For Hermies!
For sure... awesome comment.
The average grower really has no ability to determine genetic traits prior to fruition. The number of plants required to accurately breed in/out dominant and recessive traits is in the hundreds of thousands. Owning laboratory equipment to conduct genetic analysis is obviously out of the question. All we can do is develop our horticultural knowledge through experience and show some love!
A friend of mine who produces for yield uses all the bottled nutrients and all the amendments and junk to get his "bumper crops". He produces some great cannabis as well, but not quite like mine and my yields are over acceptable. He always scoffs and says he doesn't know how I do it, it must be love. I think that's one thing he's got right.
Not true anymore. Check out The-Odin.com. PCR machines for under$200; CRISPR for less than a grand. You can literally analyze the genome of your crops, and modify them to suit you.
The future is already past.
Looks like I have some research to do...
