Confused by the F's...

Ok, I'm not sure if I get the F-generations completely, so someone please help me out.

If I were to breed a Pueblan to a Corn, the offspring produced would be F1 being the first generation, right?

And now, if I bred two of the Pueblan/Corns together, these would be F2, correct?

Ok, now if I bred one of these F2 Pueblan/Corns to a CalKing, would these now be F1 Pueblan/Corn//CalKing, or would they be F3?

I suppose my question would be: Do the F-generations only follow inbreeding??? And does it work the same for hybrids and pure breeds???

I'm so confused...
