im not talking about growing two different types of plants.

i want to know if i took a package of durban poison seeds (or any kind of strain( and grew both a male and female of that particular strain so that i could acquire more seeds in order to poractice without going into the poorhouse whether or not the second batch of seeds produced from the originals would be any weaker than the originals.


so basically what im looking at is,........


1> spend 100 bucks on a given seed strain, for conversation sake, durban poison.

2> grow the pack of 10 seeds, allow a male and female from this package of durban poison seeds to pollenate and grow seeds of their own.

3> now from this pollenation i have a bunch of durban poison seeds to grow more durban poison plants later and can spend money on a different strain right?

OR are these new seeds not as good for some reason as their originals?

if they are weaker, why?

essentially im trying to ask if the strain will lose its potency or characteristics through simple breeding of two of the same strain type.
anon567 Reviewed by anon567 on . why continue buying seeds? newb question here but i always see guys on here who have ordered the same strain or two several times from a seedbank, my question is why? wouldnt it be better to just let a male and female pollenate so that you have all the seeds you could ever want fromn that particular strain and spend the money trying out new strains? am i missing something? do seeds lose their potency or something?
