Sour Zoda from Umami Seed Co. - First photoperiodic grow
Welcome to my new diary, it is my first photoperiodic grow ever!
I grow a very delicate genetic from Umami Seed Co. This seeds came as a freebie to the Gym Crush Strain, which I will grow in the future. I chose this strain because I'm a medical user for ADHD, I have major problems with staying focused which really hinders my productivity during my PhD study. And Sour Diesel is known for helping with that problem, so I'll see how this one turns out.
I popped 1 seed on 24/01/25. The seed germinated after only 12 hours and I planted it in a EazyPod. Unfortunately, it grew very very slowly and a whole week after putting the seed into water, the plant didn't even have 2 leafs (31/01/25). So I popped another seed on that day, just to be sure, which also germinated very quickly. The second plant came out of the EazyPod after 2 days. And today, on 04/02/25, which is the first day that the supporting leafs opened up, it looks pretty fine. Has a huge tap root.
I want to only grow 1 plant this time to really fill up the whole 2x2 tent from AC infinity. So tomorrow I will decide which pheno I plant inside a 5 gal fabric pod. Let's hope I choose the right seed because the other one won't make it into the tent.
Let's talk about the strain:
Sour D x Zoda is a crossing that is not available on the market yet (or never will be available, who knows). ZODA is an original strain from Umami Seed Co. It is a cross between Zcai (Z x Acai Gelato) and SeattleSoda (UW Purple x Sodalicious) and I don't really know how it is supposed to taste. On the website from Umami, nothing about this strain is really specified but Leafly says that the terps are a mix of fruity, berry and tar notes. I'm really looking forward to this crossing because of the legendary Sour Diesel which I always wanted to grow. I hope that this cross delivers for my focussing condition and tastes as promised.
