[justicebzw]

Chucking is the informal name for crossing two plants you happen to have and calling the result a strain, without selection or testing behind it. There is nothing wrong with it as a hobby, though the seeds rarely produce anything consistent. Distinctions between casual chucks and structured breeding projects are set out on https://breederregularseeds.com in fairly blunt terms. Half the packs floating around trade forums are chucks presented as finished work.
