Would a male impart the necessary genes to shorten and stabilize the flower cycle?
Forgive my ignorance.
:peace:
It has been my experience that each parent contributes various different traits in the resulting offspring. So many different combinations are possible. It takes testing to find out what traits are being passed down. Once we have the results from our test, we can predict future crosses. For example, a male Mr. Nice (G13xHash plant) was selected from a pack of 5 (1 girl and 2 boys). This boy was the taller, more robust of the 2. He has been out crossed to a Buddha Tahoe OG cut, a GreenHouse Cheese cut, Pineapple Express, Lemon Skunk. Basically everything I have. It would seem that this male passes down bud structure and smell. All of the crosses look mostly like their mothers in branch structure.
So if you have a fast flowering male, he definitely could produce fast flowering children. Especially in combination with the right female.

Right on Aero and giggles! I can't believe I never knew this before but when I read it I was like ah ha! It made a few things click about some plants I've grown and the greasy ones were always the tastiest and stickiest plants ever, I swear tthis tangilope is ridiculous, I'll share some with ya after harvest Aero, save a little bowl of yours so we can compare, I'm gonna try to reveg a clone because it is really unique
Sorry, i didn't save any:-(
But I'm pretty sure I can get the cut back. See, even though I didn't care for that flavor, a few people closer to the bay area do. One of my pals has a pal with a delivery service and also sells cuts. That guy really, really wanted a cut. He got a few;-) I bet many people are now growing and will be smokin on that pheno soon.

Wait a minute! I don't think I would get a cut of the tangielope back from that duder. I got some straight up nuclear mites from that guys cuts a few years ago. So, nevermind, prob not worth it.

Thank you, I haven't got in to breeding but always looking for knowledge.

DST have made many golden posts about breeding. Should have copy'ed that. Its a jungle trying to find in the giant club 600.
If my memory were better i would let you know whats up :)

And hi all.. Was kidnapped for a wellness spa day. Damn it was nice.. I swam/swim/swammed/(Damn tough one) so much my arms wont go over my shoulders today :) Stupid as i am i forgot the camera in the entré as we left the house so have no photos :/
But great day. Have been lurking from the phone. Damn oldman.. That was a major pr0n post! Nice pics..
Hope you are all well.

I dont agree with temps making it plants go much longer I can see 1 week on a 8 week and 2 weeks on a 12 week plant. Maybe you just got more sat in that batch is all. I am doing 30 degree temp swings on purpose and my ladies are chugging along perfect. They did 3 weeks stretch just like they are supposed and flowers/buds are everywhere. I also am replicating nature as far as high RH and misting them as it does outside at night. they are loving this. I would think somewhere along the line they got stunted a bit if they are adding more than a week to a 10 week flowering plant. I would look into the roots,your feed. are your leaves soft like they should be or are they dryer? Just my 2 cents.

I had a Raspberry Cough from Nirvana go something like 15 weeks on me before I decided to cut my losses and chop it down. Stupid plant...
It was the only one that ran long like that out of about 30 plants that were all in room at the same time. It got about six feet tall too before it stopped stretching.

Ach man, it's one of those things Bud. I'll see if I can speak to the guys at GA and ask them to look out for you. To be honest though, the GA is always about biz so it's not guaranteed. I'll let you know lad.

And, DC a very straight forward way to look at things is every that plant is a phenotype, which is a genotype with the environment it is in to effect its growth, i.e to distingish it's phenotype. So temperatures are very much something that will effect plants....as well as a plethora of other factors, some we probably don't even know about at our current understanding of plants. It's amazing how different plants look like with different soils, different grow locations, different lighting mediums (inc the sun), up a hill, down a hill, or even doon Button Ben;) It's mind boggling actually.

As for breeding and males effecting the height, flowering time, smell (oops, I mean terpines, forgot the new trendy word, lol) as well as all the other things (10 chromosones each, with an array of dominant and recessive genes, (alleles, or forms of genes) it is natural that a male could make a strains flowering time reduce, yet retain the traits of the original flower...but as Shiska said, it's all about the hunt. On that note, I must dash to collect my own bundle of offspring genes from Daycare. Laters,
