Are you saying the colder temps make foxtails? I thought it was the opposite.
I thought the same thing. Heat. But temp stress in general maybe...? I've gotten pretty sweet foxtailing that's denser - During cold temps (50s-60s) but I figured it was genetics not the temps. They aren't the good kind when it's caused by heat. I have found that the heat-induced foxtail buds stretch out and get loose. Won't really ever fill in and that's the issue.

Something like this has already been said but I have also found there to be different "styles" of foxtailing as well and it isn't desirable MOST of the time. I actually like seeing the little stubby dense ones ones on big colas but idk if you can really call that foxtailing. It seems like it's just how the bud swells. Genetics imo.

It was a jack herer x blueberry I'm talking about that had shitty loose fox tails from heat. (More like to close to lights - temps overall were fine) I tried to hit em with more light during the last few weeks to encourage more growth /swell. Rookie move a while back. Bud was of decent quality in the end.

Me as well... The herer pheno I played with did that... foxtails like a madman if the temp gets up over 80.

The whole bag appeal thing is really sad. A lot of people are missing out on some of the best bud/medicine on the planet because it doesn't look like the high times cover shoot crap.
Our local dispensary stuff looks like dried out little boulders. Oh well more for me.
Copper Blacky and dynamite get chopped today at 10 weeks. The suspense is killing me lol

I agree. Isnt the POINT, the EFFECT? Some of the best weed Iv ever had was deceptive in how it looked. Some fox-taily northern lights #5xhaze didnt even have THAT many trichs or an insane smell... but the effect? FORGET ABOUT IT!!! People were INSISTING that it was laced with somethin lol We messed with some highschool kids pretty badly... im not proud, but I still laugh lol :)

So since I have the purple goji, and I also have the Purple Mountains Majesty....lets say I run that pack next and find a nice male.

If I hit the purple goji with the Purple Mountains male, would that technically be a backcross? Or is it questionable since I am unable to verify it is the exact same cut?

Just some thoughts/questions.

Sounds like a backcross to me...
As long as you trust your source,and even if it not the exact cut,then call it back cross 2.0

No.a backcross will be the offspring of the two pollinating the original mom.but you would need to go through a few males to find a good one.you would have to keep the mom around for a while to get a true backcross.you can do a bx3 or 4 to try and get as close to an original mom in seed form as u want but breeding is tricky.
In a limited space where u don't have room to grow out a shit load of males I would just pick females and reverse them to pollinate back to the original mom.this would ensure you are getting some fire in there and not waiting on a frosty male.
I don't know why breeders don't reverse ileet cuts and pollinate other ileets.if I had access to cuts this is the way I would be doing it to try and produce some straight up fire in an offspring.
People wonder why the best plants come fro accidental pollination is cause someone was running some bad ads girls and one went Bruce Jenner but them seeds would be fire.
