Had an issue with the water. It may have slightly slowed growth. They should be good now. Moved them into a larger pot and stronger medium. We’ll see how they do

Plants are taking off now. Veg is looking really good. 2 female 1 male. Hoping to pollinate one of the females for a f2. The male has a orange citrus and mint smell. I’ve never had a plant smell like this. Almost like a orange peel smell Stem rub smells nothing like a normal weed stem smell. Going in the flower room next week.

Transition into flower. Male is getting ready to open up. Has a crazy stem rub , nothing I’ve ever smelled before from a stem rub. Usually u get what ever smell with the that after sent of weed stem. But not this male. Smells like I just peeled a orange. Just pure citrus. No weed smell after. Crazy. Definitely crossing with both phenos. 2 females. 2 very different phenos Pheno #1 is very short and dark like an indica Pheno #2 is a lot taller and lighter green thinner leafs. Definitely sativa leaning Both are looking great. Genetics seem very strong so far. No issues

Early bloom Chopped and harvested the male. Got a healthy amount of pollen, hit both phenos along with a few other strains that seemed like good candidates for a ruby juice cross. Donated the rest. Pheno #1 got a little stretch but still pretty short. She’s a good lookin little plant. Pheno #2 shot up. She’s huge just over 50 inches. And a lot lighter in color. Light green almost a lime green. Pheno #1 still has the darker green of the 2. Terps are pretty equal , not strong yet. Just sweet, both getting a bit frosty. Strong genetics. Plug head genetics is definitely solid

Mid bloom #3 I’ve noticed a P deficiency on the taller pheno Main stock has some slight reding, but the leaf stems are showing a lot of red and in the veins of the leaf, which has spread to some of the fan leaf causing the low P spots. Just gave it a regular feeding. We’ll see how that does. The smaller pheno is fine so far. They are both very different, but flowers seem to be almost identical. Other then the P both are doing well. I’ve also been feeding both phenos some bloom powders. Both have had their first and second doses of the first stage. I’m only feeding this strain out of all the other strains, to test it out. And so far they have the biggest flowers.

Mid bloom #4 Both phenos doing well. The taller pheno is dinking heavy. She’s low on P. Also fading early Short pheno is perfect. All around perfect . Terps are coming in strong now. Smells of dank and lemonade. Strong lemonade terps. Both phenos are exact so far on terp profile. Short pheno is frosting up very nice ,getting rails on small leaf. Very strong genetics.

Late bloom #5 Tall pheno. She’s fading hard now we fed her again but I’m pretty sure the roots are compacted. Over all the flowers look and smell great. I’m just gunna take a hit in the yield. But she’s sticky and sticky AF She’s starting to ripen few more weeks. Short pheno. Starting to show early fade now. Some Low P now in the fan leaf But flowers look and smell amazing. Overall a excellent strain. Hopefully they both stack up some more before finish.

I found two phenos , green and red. Both were very good. I planted 5 seeds , 1 didn’t pop, 2 males , 2 females. I picked one male to harvest pollen from. Dusted a couple branches of each pheno. Seeds turned out great. The green pheno was very frosty , bud structure was on the fluffy side , not a big yielder , great terp profile. Putrid garlic with melonaid. The red pheno had much better bud structure, tight dense buds, pure lemonade profile. Everyone’s favorite of the 2. Had some feeding and environmental issues, but it got worked out at around week 4. Buds turned out great. Plug head Genetics definitely has some good seeds. No herm issues either , even tho they both got pretty stressed for the first month.
