Your more than welcome to had gained from anything I have as input! My knowledge,however... Is something that has been aquired by trial and error.. Hence the term "Experience"...

You told me that the cross of the two strains would hermie... From my ventures.. I've learned that hermies come from stress and shitty genetics... 9 outta 10 it's the growers fault.. Heat,light leaks amongst other issues! There are so many variables.. Only the grower can prevent this from happening.

First I would get an SK1 male and backcross it to the BB.. I would'nt take a female SK1 and cross it to a male BB.. When all this breeding of these millions of strains came around.. SK1 was the founding plant that structured most of the old school strains in one form or fashion.. Whether it be 50% or a very small amount of the strain.It's there! Unless it's a pure indica or sativa.

I've had the same mothers for several years at a time.. This year is refresh the mama year.. Which I did by air layering..It's not a cutting or a clone either.. It's an establihed plant from the get go! That takes some practice! No lie..

I read all those books that tell ya this and that.. But the best book out there for cannabis cultivation,is a book called Marijuana Botany... If ya read one? Read that one! It's AWESOME! I do think you use the info read in those books a gospel.. Until you've done otherwise.. Then thats your mindset.. Not gonna change until you have experienced the worst of the readings.Thats where knowledge comes from! Wisdom is along way away!

When that Old School Grower told ya less is more.. Then I'm sure he was referring to KISS method..Which is Keep It Simple Stupid.. So lemme see if I got this right... If my plants look better than yours you'd listen to me? What works for me,may not work for you!

I first and foremost,would never tell a soul to scrap a project unless I thought it to be in their best interest!

This is a discussion... Not an argument..just sayin...So chill and don't go gettin' upset..cool?:thumbsup:
