Sibbed is when two plants of the same seed are planted then crossed back with each other. Say I had two 998 Puko's that I just happened to find in my christmas stocking. I planted them then pollinated the female from plant #1 with a male from plant #2. Now if I pollinated the female from plant #1 with a male from plant #1 it is selfed.. Now that that is clear as mud I hope you understand.

Think of it as incest with a "sib"ling rather than "selfed" which requires no further explanation. LOL
