Soaked seeds all in peroxide solution for effortless germination 48 hours or until root pops out 1mm, than I paper towel them for 2 days for tap roots before planting in the medium.
Note: Smile now Cry Laterz and FX3 were started one week later. Not pictured in this post.
The first 6 popped were lemon cherry pop, which are from S1 seeds I made from 2 females using the stress method. I just raised my flowering temps for one day at 92 degrees during week 4 flowering to make them herm as an experiment and it worked😅! This was during a hot summer and I just shut off the a/c for a day in the room which I usually keep at 77-82 degrees! So I basically tricked them!
Smooth sailing, everything is popped and moving along great, no issues to report! 24 hr lighting 50% power for 12 hours at night I reduce the light strength to 25% to ease the light intensity for 8-10 hours. The XS1500pro by vipar spectra is by far my favorite light to veg with!!! The spectrum is absolute perfection!!!
Despite no A/C in the spot temporarily, things are going perfectly fine, no complaints! Thank goodness I’m just vegging. Temps have been around 87 ish, but the plants seem to love it.
Everything is doing good despite me not having ac at the moment! House has been staying at 85 degrees so the plants are happy at least. Plan on solving the ac issue by next week to start possibly flowering soon 🤞🤞. No health issues to report, just added another fx3 to the 3x3 to have 2 different phenos!
Summer isn’t officially here and the heat is still kicking my ass, the girls are loving it though. 3rd topping completed in the 4x4, the FX3 3x3 both phenos are doing phenomenal! Taking clones next week to secure the bank, looking forward!
UPDATE: LCP has been moved outdoors along with the Solfire Smile Now Cry Laterz. Both plants withstood temperatures of 101f (115f)heat index through vegetation stage in coco coir, which surprised me because the medium would be bone dry on days I would come home from work. They are still in 3 gal fabric pots, as this was not planned but a spare of the moment decision.
Cruise 🚢 control, tapering down my nutrients. For this to be my first outdoor trial run with my tester Big Shirley pheno (Lemon Cherry Pop), I am thoroughly impressed how it’s going. She battled 100+ degree temps effortlessly, and flowering in 90+ degree days with no signs of heat stress!! She is definitely a keeper but I’m going to have to re veg her.
Solfires Smile now Cry Laterz literally is a beauty to behold. Her mugs aren’t the tightest on this pheno like I prefer, but her terps are screaming!!!! She literally smells like a pack of now and laterz and a bag of skittles mixed up and melted in the car on a hot summer day!!! Probably the best Z strain I’ve smelled in a while! I have another pheno I’m running currently in veg that has a more preferable structure for my indoor situation, she grows shorter and squat after two correctly timed topping sessions! I highly recommend this genetic if you are a zkittles lover!! Solfire nailed it with this one!!! Flushing begins next week I only do a one week flush.
Absolutely a keeper for my garden! Easy to grow and manageable, pest resistant and out of this world terpene profile:
Sour Skittles, Blue Raspberry Now n’ Laterz, Gassy undertones all melted into one!
I did have to pick a couple of young balls off of her lower branches in early transition but she did not herm. My room had heat issues during the summer which could’ve caused her early stress. But through the fire, she is thriving now that I have control of my temps.
FX3 #5 from discord comp pack, cloned, starting flush Day 55, will be taking them to Day 70!! This pheno is extremely frosty, and has a floral, bleu cheese 🧀, strawberry cream profile.
A comparable scent of Mac 1 creamy notes are very prevalent! Looking forward to harvesting them soon!
Wrapping this grow up taught me to never give up on yourself! I don’t have ideal conditions to grow in, but good genetics, love and faith works miracles!! This strain is absolutely incredible!! You can enjoy it off the stick once dried properly!!! Its terps carry all the way through and checks all boxes!! Solfire did an amazing job breeding this cultivar!!!
