Possible Next Gen Breeding Projects: 2026 Pheno Hunting

Each plant is stress tested for resistance.
Around 50% won’t make it past this stage.

From the ones that move forward, we evaluate structure and potency,
and only at the end, the terpene profile.

If we are lucky, this entire run leaves us with 2–3 clones to keep working.
Sometimes one.
Sometimes none at all.

It’s always interesting to hear criticism from part-time breeders
