I name all my plants. I named my kids also. It's kind of like peeing to mark territory. It means more to you than anyone else.

There will come a time when gene maps will be bought and sold like any brand. Monsanto will claim ownership to most of them, and you will have to pay license fees.

But for now, your art, your name.

For Monsanto to claim ownership they'll have to prove they own the genetics as IP and with all this shit being on the internet as not being grown by them it won't happen. These aren't grain seeds where they've dominated the market for generations.

Personally, i like keeping crosses named as the cross, for documentation purposes. I don't think a new name is needed until you've actually worked the lines and brought characteristics from multiples lines into one cross.

But thats just me...

I prefer to do that as well but still like to give a cross a nickname. It's still document what it was crossed with. I just like shorter names and not a bunch of Xs.

You can name a strain anything you want if you are not releasing it. Best to Google the strain name and see if it is use if you are sharing it with people to avoid problems.

Companies cant patent strains that already exist.

i crossed my Alaskan thunder fuck and my Mob boss og and have a very successful little group of plants going, cant find anywhere that has crossed these two yet does that mean i can name it what i want?

ATF x Mobb Boss OG with the male being the later in the naming convention of plants

as for naming it some teenie dumb fuck name ...sure can

but you got to mention the crossing in the definition

for example

cricketkush ATFxMobb Boss OG

even

ATF x Mobb Boss OG by cricketkush

good luck

Strain Name (Male genetics x Female genetics) by Breeder/Group is how I keep track.

I beg to differ there is a company in England that makes topical meds and a spray for your mouth and they have patents on the strain itself and certain canibinoids they have also patented. It's pretty fucked up if you ask me. I don't get how someone else can own a plant. MONEY. MONEY and you can do anything you want. As for naming strains go for it till your heart is content. People do it every day. Even dealers name there pot and they usually don't have a clue what it is.
