Wouldn't some of those males and females have come from seed stock, selected by the breeder?Skelly/Puck Hashplant is clone only.
Pacific Northwest HP is clone only.
Cuddlefish Hashplant is Clone Only.
The Male NL1 used by Bob Hemphill is probably not a clone, but is a one of a kind selection out of many many plants. Clones could be made though.
Ace has a Male, and Female they use to create their Malawi Gold
All of the places you mentioned have both a males, and females to produce their seeds. They could release clones of these selected plants instead of having to pheno hunt.
Same goes for AKBanBrains. Hes got males, and females he uses to produce his seed lines. And I dont want any feminized shit either.
McCormick is using seleced plants to make seeds from all the strains you mentioned by pheno hunting. Im talking about releaseing the clones, and male cuttings that all of these breeders have pheno hunted for, to produce their seed lines.
I know they arent going to, but is a wish list.
There's no male for, say OG Kush, because we don't know the origin. With all these other strains, NL, Skunk #1, Haze, we know who produced the IBL. We have multiple lines preserved through time.
Honestly, I try not to get caught up in cultivar hype and rather I'm more interested in a complete gene pool. If a certain line has been bottlenecked down to what some breeder decides are the "correct" parents then you'd better like their selection criteria.
I love AKBB's gear but I am much more interested in the F2's from Greg McAlister/AGS... because Greg was the one who bred it.
