The first generation of offspring in Mendel's experiments are called the F1 generation or the first filial generation. These are the offspring resulting from the crossing of two parental or P generation plants.
Mendel made three key decisions in designing his experiments. First, he selected purebred pea plants that were true breeding for specific traits. Second, he focused on only one trait at a time, such as flower color or seed shape. Lastly, he used statistical analysis to determine ratios and patterns in the inheritance of traits.
In Mendel's first experiments, he crossed pea plants with different traits, such as tall and short, using selective breeding to control the mating. He then carefully documented the traits of the offspring over multiple generations to observe patterns of inheritance. This led to the discovery of the basic principles of heredity, such as dominance and segregation.
Gregor Mendel's main experiment involved breeding pea plants to study inheritance patterns. He crossed plants with different traits, such as tall and short, to observe how characteristics were passed down to offspring. Through his experiments, Mendel discovered the fundamental principles of heredity, known as Mendelian genetics.
The alchemists were the first chemists. They mixed chemicals, but also believed that magic would help them in their experiments and formulas. It didn't. But their chemical experiments eventually led to the science of chemistry.
Mendel allowed the first generation plants to self pollinate.

The first step of Mendel's garden pea experiments was to select pure-breeding plants that were true-breeding for specific traits, such as tall or short height, smooth or wrinkled seeds, yellow or green seeds, etc. This ensured that the offspring would also exhibit the same trait consistently.
