    Default Basic breeding question

    So lets say i grow a good female plant then take 2 cuttings and grow them as well. One cutting will be force to produce pollen (with colloidal silver) and the other one will get polinated. Will the seeds produced have the same genetics as the mother plant? (from which took the 2 cuttings to make seeds). thank you!

    The answer isn't quite as simple as it seems...

    Most of the seeds will have the same traits as the parents but because of the way gentic make up is there will also be a percentage of, 'throw-backs' too

    so it seems that is allot more about breading than i thought. i just needed some seeds for 2015 outdoor grow (prices where i live are like 15$ seed so thats a good hundred $ right there). I don't want bad seeds so i will stick with clones or try to grow big as i can and let the breading for next years. thanks for the answers.
