Yesterday evening i was reading through the forums and i had seen grover sativas black widow thread. It was hilarious and got me to thinking about how his reaction was the same id had with AK47
AK had been a very special plant that was plant of the year and had thc% regularly around 25+ and not even a decade later serious is amped over a third place win where AK tested less than 20 in spain.

Sad part was during their celebration they had announced they were going to kill off biddys sister (bud in pic i had tested) due to lack of potency. All the while saying damn near 20 still 1 hit wonder. Biddys sister tested at 19%THC. I lost a hero that day. (Biddys sister was a freebie i got with motivation 23.9% and picked too early)

In that post they have the original parents but say maybe genetic drift. Can it be that rapid to change a plant so dramatically over a short period of time? How often do breeders check established lines of theirs? What are the usual things you'd see in a line going bad? Any success stories about pulling one back to stabilize and find something better or losing the most promising plant you've seen in some time?
Also does anyone have any dosage advice or experience with 6-benzylaminopurine and cannabis? Seems like with the right dosage topping or flowering early for height restrictions would be a thing of the past. I run 200ppm in my feed and plants seem to dig it and branch well. Then again i scrog everything.
Sorry for all the questions i find breeding interesting. Just to clarify im not bashing serious or anyone ( their kali mist sounds great ) the new AK just isnt for me.
On the other hand if anyone at the MNS crew wants me to make sure that any of neville's haze, neville's haze mango, angels breath, or the doors hasnt hit a genetic drift turning into lowryder cannatonic, i will take one for the team
