To the Breeder/genetic savy Orchid friends and all orchid friends, I call for your knowledge...lol



What is your opinions on selfing an orchid? Do specific flowers mater or is it just all the same genetics? Are there more instability in the genetics in hybrids versus species? Would selfing bring back old traits bond by its lineage? Would selfing make beneficial recessive genes more dominant? Variable seeds more/less? Bigger varied spectrum of siblings? (Potinara Alexia Williamsun 'Waiakea' x Self) for an example....lets converse
