so what do you think will be the next big thing in breeding?
first the goal was to figure out how the cannabis plant made buds.
i don't remember it all but from what i've read over the years it wasn't all that obvious what made cannabis bloom. but they figured it out.
next it was to make some really good strains.
pot used to be very inconsistent up to the late 70s, sometimes you'd get good stuff or someone what good stuff, then they'd have crap. so breeders stepped up, collected the best stuff they came across, then distilled and concentrated the best genes to produce superior strains and seeds . and with that, the best cannabis there ever was, was brought to the masses.
the next thing on the wish list was all female seeds...."man how great would it be if you could guarantee getting a female"........that was like fantasy. and then one day it happened".
so then it was like "wouldn't it be awesome if you didn't have to switch to a flower cycle, like the plant just grows and produces fruit, like tomato and pepper plants". another fantasy......but it happened.
so now i think the next holy grail to be reached is making autos strains perennial.
imagine a plant you sprout from seed, it grows to maturity and starts to produce flowers and doesn't die, it just makes more buds as they get cut off.
well that's my guess. the immortal pot plant.
