Hello and Welcome to my small medical cannabis grow project for this year. In December of last year I hybridized two strains and created a new strain, harvested the seeds, and stored in the fridge for 2 months and then induced germination of the F1 generation.
The strains I hybridized:
I took the Ultra Dawg (the Italian boom pheno) male and pollinated old-school Maui Waui (Nirvana) female mother to produce the hybrid offspring (Ultra Dawg x Maui Waui, which I will probably call "Ultra Waui" or "Ultra Wowie").
These seeds recently sprouted and are looking good! 8/15 germination rate so far (53.3%). Very interested to see what these grow into.
I will also be using this F1 generation to hunt for strong phenotypes and males that I will use to back-cross my last Ultra Dawg mother, as well as a special plant I got lucky with the germination of the last seed which gave me a female (Underdawg, Special Unknown #1 x NYCD x CHEM91). Thus, I will use these Ultra Waui hybrids to:
A) Back-cross into a Ultra Dawg boom pheno mother (to stabilize a selected phenotype from the F1 group), the thing about this is that to make the original offspring, I pollinated a Maui Waui mother with an UltraDawg male. So the Maui Waui female flower traits are somewhat preserved. However, with the back-cross, I will take the MALE Ultra Waui's and pollinate a FEMALE Ultra Dawg, this should really enhance the genetic diversity for the hybrid.
(the mother which I have taken 3 clones and rooted them)
B) Use the Ultra Waui males to pollinate the final female Underdawg to create the "Ultra Waui x Underdawg" strain.
[the last of the Underdawg, this is a female, very lucky on this germination. Plant was fimmed/trained to promote branching)
At the end, I hope to have a stabilized Ultra Waui (back-crossed) with the selected/desired phenos, and create the new strain "Ultra Waui x Underdawg"

Hope all is good your way too buddy.
