Question: Hybrid Cloning

[Cosmic_Insanity]

I've been seeing a lot of people with hybrid gardens that look sort of like this:

XXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXX
---------‐-------------
-----------------------
XXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXX

All of the Xs are hybrid colours arranged in a sort of pattern where no two of the same flower are touching one another. I cannot for the life of me find a guide on this type of gardening. Could anyone fill me in?

Are you sure they're doing this to breed and not to just make it look pretty?

I know that if it rains theres a chance the flowers can produce buds on their own if they're away from another flower of its type. I'm not sure if it works with watering.

This guide goes over optimal flower layouts for breeding due to cloning. In that case you described, they are trying to promote cloning

Introduction Backwardsn’s Optimized ACNH Hybrid Recipes. Yet another doc of hybrid recipes, with a twist: each recipe was discovered by a recipe optimizer program. Possible due to Paleh’s guide on Mendelian genetics in this game https://bit.ly/348DAmJ and dataminers finding the flower flags http...

I think this is what you're looking for! It's what I use and I'm finding great success so far

YES thank you! I must've seen this on Instagram (I tend to bookmark patterns and things on there) and forgot to save it

On the subject of flower cloning, does anyone know if hybrid red roses (the kind that can produce blue roses) can clone themselves? Or will they only clone regular red roses? Or what?

 

[kiwikenobi]

And can blue roses themselves clone? I would think they should like every other flower, but they're already so unusual maybe they can't. Which would be really frustrating.

 

[Poltergeist101]

They clone themselves exactly, so the red hybrid would make another red hybrid. Yes blue roses can clone. Gold roses and lily of the valley cannot clone or breed.

 

[kiwikenobi]

Great, thank you, guess I just need to be patient with my one blue rose and keep watering it every day. ^o^;>

 

[Poltergeist101]

If you have other people water it you might have better luck

 

[Dewy]

Yeah, that's what I do. It's called cloning. Basically the flowers in this game can duplicate themselves (clone) by being watered

It produces only hybrids when you water them, so you don't have to deal with regular flowers spawning
