Usually I'm not that fond of automatics. But the new hybrid F1 strains were fun to grow. Very uniform, almost like clones.

The Apollo is a small discreet plant. The taste is not that great. The yield, on the other hand, is good.
I had 2 Apollo plants : (16 plants / 1200 watts)
#1 = 65 grams
#2 = 55 grams
Total = 120 grams (for 150 watts)
=========================================================================
This is about the F1 hybrids in general. I grew 2 plants from each of the 8 new strains. So 16 plants in total :
π RQS certainly succeeded in making great uniform varieties. πThe plants germinate very fast, steady growers and nice flowering as well. And 100% Sinsemilla.π
π Ideal for small growrooms and growers who struggle to know the ideal time to switch from 18 to 12 hours.π
π I understand that RQS has put a lot of effort into developing these new genetics, but the new F1 hybrids didn't fully convince me at this stage yet. π’
π The taste of the endproduct could be better and the effect could be stronger (except Epsilon, Milky Way and Orion, which are my favorites). Cosmos is nice to smoke as well, but she's a CBD strain. π
π Plants flower quickly, but all that time all automatics consume 18 hours of light instead of 12 hours. For LED growers or growers with a poorly insulated growing room, this could be an advantage that there is less time for the growroom to cool down during cold nights.
π π I understand that RQS has put a lot of effort into developing these new genetics, but the new F1 hybrids didn't fully convince me at this stage yet. π’ The project is promising and I believe that RQS had developed what could be a great start of the future of very uniform automatic cannabis strains: easy to grow and some clonelike uniformity. πI suspect the high price of the seeds has more to do with what this project has already cost than the current state of the quality of the seeds. π But if you search for uniform, manageable and easy to grow plants, they are a great choice.
@Oyziphar,
Yeah, everything will be fine with your crop for sure - plants look healthy and well-kept. Apparently the Titans didn't like me. It happens ;) Greetings!
Really solid genetics. Both my Phenos flipped more or less around the same time. And have very similar traits.
Nice line up of strains. Hopefully you'll get some good pheno(s).
Good luck
Coming on nicely πͺ lookin good! Got my titans flowering at the moment, growth rate is rapid with them isn't it! Getting a nice smell to them now aswell, hope they all bud nicely for u bro π
@gottagrowsometime, Usually I don't like defoliation so much. But these strains had such big fan leaves that I had to remove them (week 4). This week I also removed less large leaves because of the yellow / brown spots. I wasn't so happy about that.... π
