Meanwhile, I grow out the initial females to harvest. While growing out this first run, I perform no topping, trimming, etc. I want to see what I have to work with, "raw". At harvest, rate the females for the important qualities. Find the best plant(s), and then designate the corresponding clone plant as a mother.

Since you are working with bag seed, you want to grow out as many plants as you can, to increase your chances of finding a "special mother".

There are other ways to do things of course.
