Well, by golly, I surely must have been exposed to this first generation nomenclature somewhere along the way--just, for whatever reason, it never registered! I was aware though that it took a couple generations or maybe even several generations to purify a strain. Which is why I guess, if I ever got as far as generation two and still found something undesirable, I'd probably just drop the project. I can see where good strain development would take a long time (and a lot of garden space in the meantime).
