Dialing In New Genetics: Trial Runs, Metrics, and First‑Pass Decisions
Moderated By: Chris Johnson, Big League Genetics.
Panel Description:
A fresh clone or seed line arrives with little data and high expectations. Experienced growers explain the checkpoints they use – vigor in veg, node spacing, stretch, trichome density, and finishing time – to decide if a new cultivar deserves production space. Hear how they set baseline targets, fine-tune environmental variables and nutrients on the fly, and read plant signals to bring out a cultivar’s best traits on the first run. Walk away with a clear framework for testing unfamiliar genetics, comparing results, and making confident keep‑or‑cut calls.
