Preparing the necessary equipment and tools, getting the seeds, let's get started. Soaking for a day. Tap water, settled, 120 ppm + Simplex Mass at 1 drop per 300ml.
01/10/2022
🌰 The seeds have been soaking in the solution for almost a day, now they're going into improvised containers for germination. Some strains with 1-2 seeds have already started to show "tails."
All varieties follow the same super simple scheme:
1. Soak paper towels in the solution from the seeds and wring them out.
2. Place the seeds between two paper towels.
3. Close with lids (unused trays for small pots) and put in a warm place.
4. Done, you’re amazing, waiting for roots.

After another day, I planted all the material in small pots of 0.29L - substrate coco+perlite.

Germination 11 out of 12. One plant is too "bastard," wondering if there could be a mix-up, let's see how it behaves going forward.

mutantfarmer 12/12 germination. 10/11 plants show normal leaves, without distortions, some have barely noticeable differences in the leaves. BR#9 fully exhibits ABC mutation; I think it got pollen from DB#15 (since the mother plant was DB#16). I will conduct a phenotype description after determining the sex.
Over the week, the plants received watering with a solution of 450-530ppm 5.8pH. I started measuring the output on the last watering on 14.10, and it showed 600-850ppm, 5.5-5.7pH for different plants. I thoroughly watered all with a solution of 450ppm, 5.8pH. A couple of plants showed slight signs of overwatering, while all the others remained stable and without visible problems.
BR#1 took a long time to germinate, turned out to be a weak plant and was culled.

mutantfarmer All the plants are showing active growth and quickly drying out their container. The aphid attack I mentioned earlier in my report on Freakshow x Bastard didn't cause significant damage and didn't affect growth.
Throughout the week, the plants received watering with a solution of 450-530ppm 5.8pH. At the end of the week, I started adding CalMag to the solution. The yield wasn't measured.

mutantfarmer The plants are showing active, strong growth, and they're eating and drinking quickly. This week, there was no intervention besides watering.
As a result of discovering an issue with the pH meter (see my report on Drunken Bastard x Freakshow), and with new measurements, it turned out that the pH level reaches 5.1-5.4. Since the plants are actively absorbing liquid anyway, the watering volume remained the same, but from time to time I flush with a solution of reduced nutrient concentration to avoid salt buildup. I raised the nutrient level from 500-550 to 580-630.
BR#9 is still behaving like a typical bastard, which leads me to conclude that pollen from the father DB#15 ended up on the mother instead of Lorik.

mutantfarmer Vegetation, Week 4.
The plants are showing active, powerful growth, eating and drinking quickly. No interventions were made this week aside from watering. They are starting to show sexual characteristics. Many plants have extra fingers popping up on the upper levels.
BR#6 is oozing the Bastard genetics the most, which is noticeable from the peculiar shape of the extra finger on the new leaves.
Throughout the week, we were using a solution of G.H.Feeding Grow + pH Down, with readings of 5.9-6.2pH and 650-710ppm.

mutantfarmer All the plants have determined their sex. 3 girls and 6 boys. I topped the girls, and I punished the boys more seriously by cutting off several levels. Next, the males will get another trim and will head off to produce pollen. Over time, I'll describe the info on the phenotypes.
All the girls are very bushy, beautiful, and show active good growth as expected from plants that have received hybrid vigor. BR#3 is my favorite - the branches are slightly bending, reminiscent of the flexibility of a hybrid, and on the upper fan leaves, extra fingers are popping out, resembling the shape of an ABC leaf.
For a week, they received a solution of G.H.Feeding Grow + pH Down, with readings of 5.8-6.2pH and 670-730ppm, twice a day.

I selected the best plants for breeding among the male and female plants. Male DB#6 and female DB#3. I chose both for the expression of hybrid traits in their phenotype. Slightly smoother leaf structure, more flexible-soft branches, good active branching + both showed an extra finger in the shape of an ABC leaf on the upper fan leaves.
Throughout the week, we received a solution of G.H.Feeding Grow + pH Down, with readings of 5.8-6.2pH and 700-780ppm, twice a day.
Week - 7 — no interventions in the plants' lives were made, no photos were taken.

mutantfarmer BR#3 and #12 (F) flipped to 12/12.
BR#6 male plant is still in veg, will switch it to flower in a couple of weeks to get pollen.
Aromas when rubbing the stem:
BR#3 - Bright fruity, sour with notes of blueberry.
BR#12 - Sharp blueberry-garlic-sour with pungent fruity notes.
BR#6 - Blueberry-garlic with hints of fruit.
G.H. Feeding Hybrids + pH Down, with readings of 5.8-6.2pH and 850ppm, once a day.

mutantfarmer BR#3 and BR#12 are growing dandelions, and they'll soon be ready for pollination. BR#6 in a separate box is also about to start spreading pollen.
For the week, daily waterings with G.H.Feeding Hybrids, 6.2-6.3 pH, 930-960 ppm. + I did a foliar treatment with Simplex Mass.

mutantfarmer BR#3 and BR#12 have started implementing the planned breeding for offspring and have been filled with pollen from BR#6. BR#3 resembles its pollinator more than its sister.
After pollination, I did some trimming on the male and threw it back into vegetation. I'm giving the girls a solution with reduced concentration.
For a week, daily waterings with G.H. Feeding Hybrids, 6.2-6.3 pH, 630-700 ppm.

mutantfarmer BR#3 and BR#12 are growing while carrying their little ones, practically without intervention, just watering and photos. I left them for a couple of days without watering (didn't check if the timer was on🙈). The plants experienced drought and salt buildup, so I let them recover and am now watering with a larger volume of solution.
For a week, I've been watering daily with G.H. Feeding Hybrids, 6.2-6.3 pH, 630-700 ppm.
