Summary
The great and powerful Dr. Coco returns to GrowCast for an incredible episode about cannabis breeding and how it differs from other crops large scale breeding practices. Dr. Coco starts by updating us on all the grow light work he's been doing, highlighting the Medic Grow Smart Series and how well he likes the fixture. This leads to a conversation about how light works in a grow tent, and Dr. Coco gives a good analogy to understand light distribution. The conversation turns towards breeding, and Dr. Coco gives his thoughts on how the constant hybridization of cannabis results in a different outcome than the inbred style of breeding many other crops employ. Dr. Coco explains how to create a uniform crop seed, and also explains exactly how genetic traits are passed from cananbis parents onto the progeny of what is crossed.
