MOBAY

[postmandave]

My good freind mobay brought me back some seeds last year from his trip to jamaica and a sample of the plant that they came from.This strain was wicked it was up there with the best smokes i have had.So we decided to cross pollinate it with a white russian male we had .We got around 40 seed that were worth growin out of 10 females we got we picked the best looking ,strongest /shortest of the 10 and cloned her . heres how they look now at 4 weeks they. went straight to 12/12 after they showed their first roots. we decided to call the strain mobay after our good freind so hear it is mate.:rasta: :thumbsup: this our first attemp at cross pollinatoin so if any experts out there can give me any info it would be greatly received i still have pollen from a mobay male and a white russian male that i have kept in the freezer but not sure if inbreeding is a good idea so help me out hear people i want to now the best way to go to stablise this strain we know this takes generatoins of plants to do this but are willing students to anyone in the know. be safe the postman.

You created a monster...LOL You can see the WR traits in the buds.

So the jamacian seeds were an unknown strain?

Looks like a nice cross though.

AK-47 and White Widow are the cross that makes WR so maybe one
of those strains would stabelize the breed you are trying to make.
Im still learning about breeding myself though.

never thought about that yabatab intresting idea . yes the strain from jamaica was an unknown strain but maybe mobay could throw some ideas to the name . the jamaican strain smoked real well the stone was a very heavy head stone . the one seed we had was female and did not grow to tall but did show total sativa qualities but the pheno type we choose from the wr cross was small and compact just like the clones in the pics . does any other growers know if adding white widow or ak to the bunch will add to stablising the strain . be safe all the postman.

My impression is that you just grow a lot of plants, pick the two stongest parents with the qualities that you want, breed those, grow a lot of the new seeds, pick the best parents again, then breed those, and continue to do so each crop. This would be the method that a farmer uses to maintain a healthy crop with desired characteristics. The key to this method is to always breed the parent plants in a highly controlled setting so that you get zero undesired pollination from other plants. Then of course you can just use clones of the chosen parents to continually make seeds.

PMD... How many different traits do u see in ur "mobay" batch? I say pick the one or ones you like best and pollinate them with both the Mobay pollen and WR pollen.
Just keep tap on what branch you did the pollenation on, keep the pollen seperate from getting mixed in with the other. That way you could save time instead on cloning and pollinating them seperately you could do it at the same time on the same plant just on different branches/buds.
From that batch you could start to lock in to your favorite phenos, just a thought...

PS I dont think adding the AK or WW would do as good as the WR cause the WR was already been stabilized to become the "WR" both traits make up the WR so adding one or the other can just throw the traints off to being more towards the AK or more WW.

Hope this made sense GOOD LUCK .... I'm loving where this thread is going:thumbsup: We NeeD expert Breeders

Thanks for that input phytokind .makes sense that idea.Buck just got the same input from a freind .He reckons(reckons being the key word lol)that if i use wr to back cross one of the clones and cross another jamiacan strain(we call it the queen) and cross it with the offspring of the mobay and wr then take the offsring from them and keep doing that then the strain should become stablised lol. man need some input from one of the expert here like zandor or latewood or bob anybody who could add some input here. heres a pic of the jamaican strain .i revegged her and took some cuttings and i have kep one as a mother i also plan on having the mobay mother and white russian mother to keep this going.be safe the postman.

Sounds good PMD, so how was the smoke of the seed found from the jamaican strain u got from mobay? Was it the same as the bud u got from it? I cant wait to see this strain harvest...:dance:

[yabatab]

Speaking of mobay where the hell is he....LOL

This is going to be a good one and one I can learn something
from. Have you got any other input outside this forum on that
postman?
