For those who don't already know: Steem Og Is a VERY special strain: It was mated by @jonyoudyer for the special purpose of being a strain unique to STEEMERS! It's OUR strain! :)

Steem Og was made with the 3rd pheno of SAnta Rita Jon found, and the 4th male of SAnta Rita Jon found.
Santa Rita was made by crossing a female Tahoo Og with a male Inca Gold.
That's how the Steem Og Was Born! That's the family tree! History in the making folks! :)
{So technically Steem OG is a second gen. PHENO of Santa Rita for any genetic nerds out there.}

Lets give a round of applause to @jonyoudyer for making this wonderful strain
and also for being smart enough to use a Landrace in his breeding project!
Landraces are ancient outdoor strains that many expert breeders use.
They add stability to new crosses of cannabis. Well played @jonyoufyer!

Okay now lets get to the exciting part!!! :)
What are my plans for the steem Og? Well...I have been tasked with making
a SECOND GENERATION of the already famous STEEM OG!! I am very excited!
The second generation will be mated Outdoors 2019 NO EXCEPTIONS!
I will be selecting the strongest Male and the strongest 3/4 Females to mate together.
This is known as phenotyping. Killing off the weak specemin and mating the strongest.

For Now I am Popping 3 of the smallest beans to enjoy some female
first generation Steem Og. @jonyoudyer begged me to grow some {now} with him.
I think its a good idea. I can taste the buds from generation 1 AND take some clones.
I plan to give my clones of Steem Og {generation 1} away to any +21 cannabis growers in my state.

Maybe I can Do A HEMPFEST giveaway?? Depends on how fast the females grow. So Cross your fingers!!

Nice! 143

Danks for the recommendation :)

Hell yeah! This is going to be fun seeing different grows of the same seeds. Best wishes to you all! Steem power por vida!!

I might have to wait until Christmas to pop my 8 and see what I've got. At that point I should be ready to start the long veg for some nice bushy summer plants, a bit like the Pink Kush girls (but perhaps taller). It will be an adventure! They are safe and sound with me until then.
Steem OG ftw :D

"This is known as phenotyping. Killing off the weak specemin and mating the strongest."
Is that what they also call "stabilizing" a genetic line?
Also, it sounds like unnatural accelerated selection. (not necessarily a bad thing of course!)

Yes phenotyping is done to stabilize the genetics.

Awesome... I'm going to need to learn more about that in the coming months... upvoted and following :)
