A long story short, I've been working with Chernobyl for about a year. I was able to force a hermie, and self-pollinate a batch of Chernobyl that I had. To quickly explain the mechanics of breeding in an understandable way:
When you cross two "pure-line", or generally 80%+ homogenous population with a separate "pure-line", you end up with a hybrid. If you cross that hybrid, however, the f2 generation in this case will revert back to the original parent genes. In other words, If you cross a hybrid with a hybrid, the offspring will end up exhibiting traits from their previous parents from seed to seed. I did this with Chernobyl, and then selected the Bloodwreck phenos as well as the JTR phenos. These are some shots of one of the Bloodwreck phenos that I isolated.
