Auto Durban x Auto Duck F1 - Bx To Duck

[NeDank]

High and welcome everyone,

Yesterday I planted a cross Auto Durban x Auto Duck 8 reg (2 per pot) and 1 Auto Duck fem in hope of back crossing to Auto Duck. I just love the webbed leaves and the smoke is good too.

Grow Specs

3'x5'x7' generic ebay tent
6 55w AutoCob LED's
24/0 Light Schedule
Promix BX with nothing added
10" round pots (roughly 1.5-2 gallon soil)
MaxiGro, MaxiBloom, Epsome Salt, Root Stim

My last grow with Auto Duck yielded 92g and Auto Durban 120g. The hybrid vigor should increase yield of Auto Duck. If not I'm happy with anything because the main focus is making a bx. Something new I'm trying is let em grow natural instead of topping or LST.

That is all for now. Have a nice day.

Nedank,
Webbed leaves seem to be recessive genes by seeing your cross .
Backcross won't bring them back .
You would have more chance to dig the f2 and f3 from your cross for that .
To keep a recessive gene you have to cross it with similar one.

If it doesn't work no big deal this is all just an experiment. I'm having fun and will get weed. Plus I really like the Durban x Duck auto so far. Thanks for the advise.

Today the plants got a little trim. Here's a quick look

and a overview shot

I think I may have waited too long to feed. The plants are smaller than last round. Here's a rough comparison



Current round

Last round (Urban Legends)

By the time they were defoliated last round the plants were quite a bit bigger.

Day 26


The Durban Ducks are doing well! So is miss Ducky. Preflower has just started for most of the plants. One male in particular is fast. idk if I want to keep him or not but he is the fastest to flower but is small. Depends on if I find another male.

Overview

The female Auto Duck I used for the initial cross showed around week 5 to 6 so that pheno would be a perfect male. I'm hoping for a later male to show in one of the pots but so far it's looking like a lot of fems and one early male. If he is the only one I will still use him because Auto Duck is already showing fem too.

I'm already planning the next grow 2 Auto Durban x Auto Critical Kush (ACK was a huge plant) and 2 Auto Durban x Auto Killer Cookie + a few more Urban Legends strains I haven't had the chance to grow yet.

Here is a post I did for another forum on bud from my last grow


I just store bud in zip lock bags. This probably isn't as good as freezing or jars but I would need too many jars and the freezer is full. Here is some bud that has been in zip lock bags for 3 months. All are still nice and squishy yet dry enough to smoke


Stash

A handful of Durban Auto

Durban Nug

Maybe I'll buy a small chest freezer to put the bags in
