Seeking F1 Autos?

Well,

As my 60 day Lemon comes to a close, I find myself looking towards that next horizon. I am looking for F1 Autos, breeder packs. I take tons of photos as you guys tell by my other post, and will well document it.


What would be the best source for untested autos that are up for market?

Cheers.

Why do you want f1's? If you breed those with each other you will get a bunch of different types of offspring. Unless you looking for hybrid vigor...

Yes,

I am looking for Hybrid Vigor on true F1 autos (Auto x Auto). I know breeding two F1s can be sporadic, but I want to cross a few different F1's together and just continue to cross them keeping the hybrid vigor.

Yyou might want to look into getting two very different auto's (a sativa and an indica), and then crossing those for your f1's with the hybrid vigor. Then when you run out of those hundreds of seeds, cross the two parents again for another batch of f1's. Once you go past f1 you lose the hybrid vigor because it is caused by almost all of the dominant traits being expressed over the recessive ones. After the f1 generation, you will get some recessive genes pairing up again in the offspring.

Thanks for the protip. Is there any way to breed hybrid vigor past F1?
Not 100% sure about that.. You could definitely sort out the f2-f/6 babies that were the most vigorous and eventually create a stable strain, but otherwise, you will have different genotypes, some which will be more vigorous than others.

I just started a dutch passion Think different, Sweet Seeds Dark Devil, and cream of crop ko. For the sole purpose of breeding them with a large group of other autos.
