Carolyn mentioned something in another thread about dehybridizing to find an original parent heirloom. How exactly do you do this and how long does it take to do it? It sure sounds complicated to me and it also sounds like it would take a _very_ long time to accomplish this. Could someone explain this to me? Keeping in mind there are two parents, I'm confused on the mechanics of the dehybridization process and selection guidelines. :)
