F1 hybrid the new thing or take cuts?

S1 s2 s3s4 s5 F1 for stable uniform plants that are the same or just take cuts for free?peace Goohfy.

Higher S generations zone in on the desired traits, but potentially at the cost of offspring vigour.

No two plants are the same. If you want to grow the same plant twice take cuts

F1 hybrids are used to create hybrid vigour. It's a big old con in the cannabis game so don't be fooled by a label because nearly all cannabis is to close related to create any true F1 hybrids. These fools claiming this are only doing so based on commercial gain from crossing 2 inbreed lines to regain diversity vigour from poor inbreed lines. S5 by the way is to far the plants will of lost a lot of vigour from genetic bottleneck by then. Yes crossing it will increase vigour to the point the hybrid almost looks normal again. No thats not true hybrid vigour its a con. Even genuine F1 strock as 3+ phenos. In all honesty I find most commercial breeder's in this industry wich is now mostly legal globally are lacking & wouldn't keep up in terms of any other global seed industry as anything other than hobby breeder's with their knolage & the time they put into releasing now lines. It takes traditional plant breeder's. 3-4yr to create most new varieties were cannabis breeder's can make 50 new hybrids a year and charge a lot more.
