LOL it's free and I'm good at it.
What did you accomplish today?

2x4 for cleats is code for a very good reason
4 screws through each cleat
you should have inside stringers 12'' OC too

Another harvest week, very busy. After a decade, I think I'm going to have to retire my Trainwreck strain. It's only producing half of what it used to. When I started growing about 10 years ago (it's weird to write that, that's a while) the current data suggested that cloned plants are identical to its parent. But current data is suggesting the opposite - Current Science Cloning Article
Out of about 15 or so phenos of strains that I've kept and cloned for commercial production, this is only the second one that has accumulated net negative characteristics through the mutations inherent in cloning. The other strain I lost was a gorgeous cut of Northern Lights #5. Everyone mourned that death. I started this TW at the same time as an OG Kush mom that, if anything, has actually gotten better through time (except that it has become a little more difficult to clone.) I have these fast flowering Durban fem seeds that I've yet to pop, if I find a good pheno I think this will replace the TW. Oh well. ♫ Nothing lasts forever, even cold November Rain ♫
Making new moms, so I took a bunch of extra cuts and filled the cloner before culling the old -
New moms. Sorry about the fucked up lines...
Planted these on 4/20, so they should turn out to be Super Moms...

I've heard that tissue culture will clean up 'issues' with older clone generation. I honestly don't know but it's something to consider.

If you could point me to some helpful links, I'd appreciate it. I'm no botanist, but I can't fathom how tissue culture can correct net negative mutations of a phenotype. Gotta look into it, though. I don't want to commit an argument from ignorance fallacy
I admire how you name the fallacy you do not wish to fall foul of LOL Your mind always amazes me.If you could point me to some helpful links, I'd appreciate it.

I'm etoh impaired as this is Wednesday night. I'll answer you when I'm sober. My OCD compels me.

Excellent set-up, kudos. Clean and professional, just like some research labs I've seen.

The cannabis genome isn't that well mapped out yet; one would need to know the specific sequence causing the negative phenotype and the specific sequence of the desired trait(s) before clipping. Arabidopsis is an old, well known and respected experimental system in botany, much like Drosophila is in genetics wherein the genome is well mapped.

My understanding is a meristem tissue culture is virus free. If causation is genetic drift over time then you need whole sequence genomics. That was my impaired line of thought.

Exactly, as well to consider telomeric degradation which in Tyler's situation is likely plausible

Morning everyone.....
it's a nice 59F and clear this morning, mid 80's by the afternoon.....
there is way to much science talk for my understand without coffee right now....working on the ol first cup right now......
welp off to the ck the garden and the tomatoes to see what things look like after yesterdays storms....
looks like this weekend i'm gonna pull out the ol experiment gonna be nice and sunny for the next couple of day it looks like.....gonna have to do some rednecking with some string with it.....yippee....
later off to the shop gotta do some stock orders at least get them written up for the suppliers...
