Doing a Crossbreed and Suggestions

Cross Breeding for Tale 4 can be used on flax, flowers (Sea Lilies) and vines in a greenhouse. The tech is received from a University of Thought.

Click on the greenhouse to find the "Crossbreeding..." option.

Note: With Tale 4 labeling of greenhouses was added under Utilities. It is 'highly' recommended to use this with some notation such as "#34 Fracture Energy" and record the cross on another page for later reference.

You may place two differently named plants (see note later to get around this exclusion) of the same type and species, one in the left cross and one in the right cross. For example, a sea lily cannot be crossed with an orchid, and neither can two different seasonal wheat types be crossed. If there is a plant in the left or right cross already, you will get the message "The left/right splint is already satured with whatever. Scrape away these seed and replace with whatever?". This can be handy if you have forgotten which plants are in the left and right crosses, say after you have been using solvents. If you would like to breed the same named plants you may go to any University of Worship (after gaining the Seed Registry tech at a University of Leadership) and rename a plant variety.

Make sure you have Nut's Essence in your Items, refresh the cross breeding window and click on "Initiate the Cross". A message in Main will tell you that it will take 15 minutes for the cross to finish. After 15 minutes another message will tell you that the cross is finished and which #number it is.

One child bulb or seed will be formed by taking a certain number of genes from the left side of the genome of the Left Cross and grafting it on to a certain number of genes taken from the right side of the genome of the Right Cross. Example:

Fracture Left Cross ROYGROYGYORGORGOOO
Vampire Right Cross IYIYIOIYIOIO
Child Bulb (might grab from Fracture) ROYGROYG + OIYIOIO (from Vampire)

So if you understand what those genes and gene sets do in a genome you can make more intelligent crossbreeds for what your target is.

Fun Sea Lily Breeding Hints

See Genomes and Phenome Theories Links page.

  • Giant and Giantx2: Fracture on Left Cross, any other flower on Right Cross. Approximately 1 in 6 chance. ROYG is the giant phenome set. There are two sets of those on the left side of the Fracture genome (ROYGROYG)YORGORGOOO.
  • Dwarf and Semidwarf: Any flower on Left Cross, Fracture on Right Cross. Approximately 1 in 6 chance. GYOR is the dwarf phenome set. One ROYG giant set plus one GYOR dwarf set will make a semidwarf lily size. Fracture has ROYGYOR in its genome which is actually a ROYG giant set with a GYOR dwarf set merged into it. But because there is also another ROYG on the left side we need the child genome to leave out that far left ROYG giant set or cut off part.
