Clone or Spore Print to Pass it On???
    #27333855 - 06/03/21 12:57 PM (2 years, 11 months ago)

Hey all,

I will try to word this as best I can.

I had a crop of GTs where a few of them where quite large.  So I wanted to preserve,  I took biopsy of the inside flesh and put on agar, I took the caps and making spore print, and I last took a biopsy and threw it in some LC liquid.  So at this point I'm all over the place and need some guidance.

My main question is - will a spore print give me the same or similar genetics to the phat mushroom I took it from - or will it just produce a print with multiple genetics of shorties, fatties, aborts, etc.

If its not the spore print, then will the clone onto agar help me to achieve my goal of getting similar phatties? 

In essence, I'm just trying to figure out the best way to get the same or similar genetics for next crop.  So if any experienced growers can provide some direction or knowledge I would be very appreciative.

Thank you in advance,

RapidR

Phenotypes (traits) may or may not stick around in the spores dropped. Phenos can be stabilized by growing out the spores of the mushroom with the desired traits, then growing out the spores of the resulting fruits with the desired traits through generations like this. This is why variety breeders don't usually release prints of new breeds until f8 or so. (f stands for filial, f1 is 1st generation, f8 is the 8th) Cloning the big fruit also may or may not bring the size with it. The size of the fruit has to do with genetics and conditions. If genetics play most of the role in the size, a clone will likely give more big boys. Anything that has to do with conditions isn't transferred genetically. So, clone the fruit. If the clone throws more big boys, print them and grow em out, and continue to print and grow the biggest fruits. Also, get your hands on some PESA spores, big ol fruits in this variety. Fiji fruits are fuckin huge but generally less aggressive biologically, harder to get full canopies and a bit more contam prone. Hope this was helpful. Love.
