release pollen earlier than others then the
mating is not random. Or maybe all males
release their pollen earlier resulting in some
of the later flowering females ending up as a
sinsemilla crop. This means that these late
flowering females will not make their
contribution to the gene pool. Again
equilibrium will not be maintained.
With regards to natural selection the
environment may cause a problem with a section
of plants. If this section does not survive
then they will not be able to make a
contribution to the gene pool. If this is the
case and if selections are made so that other
plants do not make a contribution then we know
that trait frequencies can be controlled to a
certain degree. And the ability to control the
frequencies of a trait is what BREEDING IS ALL
ABOUT.
HOW TO TRUE BREED A STRAIN
Breeding cannabis strains is all about
manipulating gene frequencies. Most strains
that are sold by reputable breeders through
seed-banks are very uniform in growth. This
means the breeder has attempted to lock certain
genes down so that the genotypes of those
traits are homozygous.
If we can imagine for a moment that a
