Hey guys,

This thread will be a compilation of scientific literature and scientific data pertaining to breeding Cannabis.
I'm hoping we can link most of the info and the stuff we cant link can be posted on this thread and then put a link to the post right here.
If you've seen the Strainguide,it will be similar and this too will always be a work in progress.
Sam is the one that suggested to me that we needed a breeder Bibliography/FAQ and I agree.

This will be broken down into catagories to help make it easy to find what you're looking for.
All are encouraged to add any links you have.Mostly we are looking for scientific articles and data but we will probably have some catagories for non-scientifis as well.
All suggestions are welcome.

Here´s what i found on feminized seeds a while ago , there was a thread @ old cw back for some years where soma talked about his technique of producing feminized stock .... named Rodelization ...

originaly from high times july 2003 by SOMA


Creating feminized seeds is an art, there are a few different methods of application. I have written about some of my different methods of making seeds in previous HIGH TIMES articles. I have use gibberellic acid, light stress, ph stress, and fertilizer stress to force my plants to make seeds. All these methods are harsh on the plants, and some like the gibbrellic acid, are not organic. In my search for cleaner more earth-friendly ways of working with the cannabis plant, I have found a new way to make feminized seeds.

Feminized seeds occur as a result of stress, other than genetics. All cannabis plants can and will make male flowers under stress. Certain strains like a higher PH, some like a lower one. Some like a lot of food, some like a lot less. There is quite a lot of variety in marijuana genetics, and you can’t treat every plant the same way.

It takes many harvests before you really get to know a particular strain. Just like getting to know human friends, it takes time. I have grown strains for a decade and am truly getting to know every nuance the different plants exhibit. I can recognize them from a distance. I must say that I get a lot of help from my friends, both in making seeds and learning new and better ways of working with this sacred plant.



I named this new method “Rodelization” after a friend who helped me realize and make use of this way of creating female seeds. After growing crop after crop of the same plant in the same conditions, I noticed that if I flowered the plants 10-14 days longer than usual, they would develop male “bananas”. A male banana is a very slight male flower on a female marijuana plant that is formed because of stress. Usually they do not let out any pollen early enough to make seeds, but they sometimes do. They are a built in safety factor so in case of sever conditions, the plant can make sure that the species is furthered.

To me a male banana is quite a beautiful thing. It has the potential of making all female seeds. Many growers out there have male banana phobia. They see one and have heart palpitations, they want to cut down the entire crop or at least take tweezers and pluck the little yellow emerging devices out. I call them “Emergency Devices” because they emerge at times of stress.

In the Rodelization method, the male banana is very valuable. After growing your female plant 10-14 days longer than usual, hang them up to dry, then carefully take them off the drying lines and inspect for bananas. Each and every banana should be removed and placed in a small bag labeled very accurately. These sealed bags can be placed in the fridge for one to two months and still remain potent.

For the second phase you need to already have a crop that’s already 2 ½ weeks into flowering. Take your sealed bag of pollen out of the fridge, and proceed to impregnate your new crop of females. To do this, you must first match the female plant and the pollen from the same strain in the previous crop. Shut down all the fans in the grow room. Then take a very fine paint brush, dip it in the bag of pollen, and paint it on the female flower. Do this to each different strain you have growing together. I have done it with ten different kinds in the same room with great success.

I use the lower flowers to make seeds, leaving the top colas seedless for smoking. This method takes time(two crops), but is completely organic and lets you have great quality smoke at the same time you make your female seeds. If you’re one of those growers that has never grown seeds for fear of not having something good to smoke, you will love this method.

You can also use this pollen to make new female crosses by cross pollinating. The older females with the bananas can be brought into the room with the younger, un-pollinated females when they are three weeks into flowering. Turn all of the circulation fans on high, and the little bits of pollen will proceed to make it around the room. Do this for several days. Six to seven weeks later you will have ripe 100% female seeds; not nearly as many as a male plant would make, but enough to start over somewhere else with the same genetics.

As a farmer who has been forced to move his genetics far away from where they started, I know very well the value of seeds. My friend Adam from THSeeds in Amsterdam has a motto that I love to borrow these days: “Drop seeds not bombs”.

You are very welcome, sir! But, it really isn't anything I came up with. I would rather have just copied and pasted, but, I don't know copyright law stuff. So, instead of putting ICMag at risk of a lawsuit, I put up the link and anyone that wants to, can read it at their leisure.

A couple of the following links leave me feeling like I have been caught with my finger up my nose!

“A UV-B-Specific Signaling Component Orchestrates Plant UV Protection,”
http://www.pnas.org/content/102/50/18225.full

“Regulation of CONSTANS and FLOWERING LOCUS T Expression in Response to Changing Light Quality,”

“The Endosomal System of Plants: Charting New and Familiar Territories,”

“What is Moving in the Secretory Pathway of Plants?,”

“Is the Loss of Stability Theory a Realistic Concept for Stress Relaxation-Mediated Cell Wall Expansion during Plant Growth?,”
http://www.plantphysiol.org/cgi/content/full/147/3/935

Hope these are acceptable.
