Well what are you breeding towards?
What is your end goal?
Is it an Indica or Sativa type?
To make a start maybe try to find out what the lineage of these that you have are so that you can make some educated plans and know what you are dealing with.
If you are dealing with plants that are from many different types crossed together the harder it will be to find what you are looking for.
For example Bogs Bogbubble is a cross of and Afghani Kush and a Bubblegum
this is what Bog himself told me in a letter.
I will reread to make sure.
But that means that with Bogbubble you are already dealing with 2 types.
But Bog had great luck crossing his Bogbubble
[Bogbubble=Afhani Kush x Bubblegum]
to a Northern Lights [ I am assumimg inbred, maybe IBL]
and creating Bogglegum

so = Bogbubble x Northern Lights equals Bogglegum
But that combination is originally
[Afghani Kush x Bubblegum] to make Bogbubble
and then crossed to Northern Lights
Does that make sense?

Your idea of getting the hardiness of DP and high trichome /potency from BB would be optimum, but genetics are pretty tricky.Lofty said:thanx 1TT, that high is making me a real eager beaver to get on with it.
Good info south, i was guna do durban x bogbubble coz id like the lovely snow cover bubble and the hardyness of durban so i cud try them outdoor as well. i dont wet know much bout there history, the durban was nivara seeds. i also am short of hight in my loft, only got 60" to the lights so i was hoping the bog wud keep my new strain short and bushy.
am i anywhere near rite or am i thinking a load of poop! HELP!
