Can someone please explain what is meant by 5th generation. How exactly do you get to the next generation? Is a clone the Second generation of the mother?

hmm, I always heard;Can someone please explain what is meant by 5th generation. How exactly do you get to the next generation? Is a clone the Second generation of the mother?
-wikiBackcrossing is a crossing of a hybrid with one of its parents or an individual genetically similar to its parent, in order to achieve offspring with a genetic identity which is closer to that of the parent. It is used in horticulture, animal breeding and in production of gene knockout organisms."
Advantages
Disadvantages
- If the recurrent parent is an elite genotype, at the end of the backcrossing programme an elite genotype is recovered
- As there is no "new" recombination, the elite combination is not lost
- Works poorly for quantitative traits
- Is more restricted for recessive traits
- In practice, sections of genome from the non-recurrent parents are often still present and can have unwanted traits associated with them
- For very wide crosses, limited recombination may maintain thousands of 'alien' genes within the elite cultivar
- Many backcrosses are required to produce a new cultivar which can take many years
Orangeblood, do you know if a plant loses some of its potential THC...if it is a clone from a clone of a clone? I read somewhere that the plant gets a little weak with every clone..but I have heard that adding generations makes a plant desirable. Would you rather have an 11th generation plant...or the original seedling plant?
wow, those look absolutely fabulous....so..as your veggin ur plant, your taking a cutting or two from it to continue the generations? Do you have dedicated mothers? Do you have any idea what your yield is per plant of WW?
Thank you again..for your time answering these questions
