This is a very cool concept

This is a pretty neat idea. Too bad MJ was illegal, because an open breeding system taylored to MJ growing would have a huge potential to create some fantastic strains in a shorter period of time.

Here is an excerpt:

The principle on which we are basing our breeding methods is called recurrent mass selection. What this means is we start with a large and genetically-diverse population of a given crop, and use both natural and forced selection to find the best individuals in that population.
In practical terms, what we do is divide the work of selection between many small-scale volunteers, who each grow a plot of seeds and select the best plants based on every possible criterion: pest and disease resistance, flavour, colour, yield, storability, nutritional content, etc.
Here’s how it works, in simple terms:

1. You get seeds from the breeding pool, and grow them out with full exposure to pests and diseases. Most of the plants can be allowed to die, so only the best get cross-pollinated.
2. You give some of your resulting seeds back to the breeding pool, and they are mixed with everyone else’s results for the next generation.
3. The process is repeated for as many generations as necessary to get high levels of horizontal resistance – and every other desirable trait – which usually takes around six or seven generations to reach a maximum.
