This is a quick update from one of our large-scale autoflower test runs.

In this project we’re working with a population of 367 plants, including different breeding projects, generations, experimental crosses, and a few collaboration lines. The goal here is simple: observe how these lines perform side by side under the same conditions.

At this stage we evaluate multiple traits across the population, plant structure, flowering time, overall stability, bud development, and terpene expression. Running large populations like this allows us to see how consistent each line really is and how the different generations behave.

Some projects are earlier in development, others are already more refined, so comparing them in the same environment gives us valuable information. From here we’ll continue narrowing the population, selecting the individuals that best represent the direction we want for each line.

Those selections will determine which projects move forward and which ones stop here. This is how breeding decisions are made, by observing the population, generation after generation, and keeping only the strongest candidates for the future lines.
