You'll end up with AutoAK 2209. (kidding) Should be fine, I believe, but I don't often work with auto flowering breeds on purpose.

Dutch: From what I understand:
1. Depends on the source/breeder. I believe the reputable breeders back-cross in an attempt to stabilize a hybrid strain so that the future offspring are consistent. For how many generations it remains consistent, I have no idea. I do know I finally had sucess breeding (virtually all of) the Early Wonder out of a Swazi (sativa skunk) x Early Wonder (auto-flower) cross I had. No more auto-flowering skunk.

2. With the lights I use, I usually get pollen sacks opening by the fourth or fifth week. Results will vary depending on strain.

3. Since I only let a male grow in emergencies, I apply pollen with a small horsehair artists brush, on lower branches (actually, the pistols) of my fems as soon as it's collected. Usually, tho...I stress a female, for her pollen.

Rusty Trichome Reviewed by Rusty Trichome on . Breeding for Seeds I was told that inbreeding F1's is a bad idea. I have been looking at some Lowlife auto-flowering strains to fill in some gaps in my growroom but the seeds are kind of pricey. Could someone with some knowledge of genetics explain to me what would happen if I were to cross AutoAK-47 x AutoAK-47? Because I can't clone these auto flowering plants, I want to make seeds the first time around so I don't go broke. Automatic AK47 Rating: 5
