The PhenoHunt 2025 "La Chanvriere"

FRENCHPASSIONFARM Seedling stage underway! The PhenoHunt 2025 x La Chanvrière is officially moving forward — 10 seedlings now standing strong under the lights. Each one is showing its own rhythm, and I’m already starting to spot subtle differences in structure and vigor. Two seeds haven’t managed to fully break out of their shells yet, but I’m giving them a bit more time before stepping in to help. Still hopeful for a full lineup!

FRENCHPASSIONFARM Grow Diary Update – Day 7 (Seedling Stage) We’re now at Day 7 of the seedling stage, and things are looking great overall! Out of the 11 seeds started, 9 phenos have officially made it, and are growing at their own rhythm. It’s already possible to spot some differences in vigor between phenotypes, which makes this early phase exciting to observe. Each one is starting to show its personality. Today was a key moment: I gave them a full saturation watering to encourage healthy and deep root development. Conditions are stable and the little ones are thriving. Everything is on track for this Pheno Hunt 2025 x La Chanvrière featuring Rainbow Peaches (RS11 x Moonlightz). Can’t wait to see how each pheno evolves in the coming weeks!

FRENCHPASSIONFARM Grow Diary Update – Day 10 (Seedling Stage) We’ve officially reached Day 10, and things are progressing nicely! Today, all 9 phenos have been transplanted into 5L pots, giving them more room to stretch their roots and continue strong early growth. During the transplant, I noticed that the soil from the previous containers was still quite wet, so I decided to hold off on full saturation watering for now. I’ll wait a bit longer to let the medium balance out before the next full watering cycle. The plants are adapting well, and I’m continuing to observe differences in growth speed and structure between phenotypes — the selection work has truly begun. Onward with this Pheno Hunt 2025 x La Chanvrière – Rainbow Peaches journey

FRENCHPASSIONFARM Grow Diary Update – Week 3 (Veg Stage) We’re now entering Week 3 of veg, and all 9 phenos are settling in nicely in their 5L pots. They just received a fresh watering, and the growth rhythm is steady and healthy. At this stage, structural differences between phenos are starting to show, although still subtle. A few variations in leaf shape and node spacing are appearing — nothing major yet, but enough to spark interest for what’s to come. Everything is stable, and the Rainbow Peaches lineup is off to a promising start in this Pheno Hunt 2025 x La Chanvrière

FRENCHPASSIONFARM 📆 End of Week 5 – Pre-Transplant Check & Sexing Before transplanting, I took a closer look to see if any signs of sex were showing… and after 6 weeks, all 9 phenos have revealed their sex. Out of the 9 phenotypes: 🔹 5 males: #37, #39, #41, #42, #43 🔹 4 females, giving a female ratio of 44.44% from this seed batch. All the plants are looking healthy and strong, and tomorrow is a big day: 🌱 Transplanting into 11L pots 💧 Saturation watering to promote solid root development ✂️ Taking cuttings to preserve the genetics before flipping to flower The hunt is getting intense now — ready to see how these ladies express themselves in bloom! 🌸🔍

FRENCHPASSIONFARM 📆 Week 6 – Final Sexing, Recovery & Flip Prep Following the transplant into 11L pots, I made a final observation and discovered that Pheno #40 is actually a male, bringing the total to 6 males and 3 females. Despite the change, the 3 remaining females are thriving — they’ve shown solid growth and have adapted very well to their new containers. ✅ Backup clones have been taken and are now in the process of rooting ✅ The girls have been prepped and are now ready for the flip to flower The real expression phase is just around the corner — can’t wait to see what these phenos reveal in bloom!

FRENCHPASSIONFARM 🌸 Week 1 – Flowering Phase Begins After a solid preflower prep, I’ve officially flipped the grow to flowering! I’m now running 3 phenotypes in bloom: 🔹 #36 🔹 #38 🔹 #45 Pheno #40 has been isolated due to potential signs of hermaphroditism — nothing confirmed yet, so I’ll keep a close eye on it over the next couple of weeks before making a final decision. Structurally, things are getting interesting: 🔸 Two phenos are showing a tall, US-style stretch, with wider internodal spacing — just like what I’ve seen in modern cultivars I’ve grown in the past. 🔸 The other two are more old-school in structure, shorter and stockier, with tighter node spacing. 🌱 All 4 phenos have been successfully backed up in a DWC cloner for preservation — the hunt continues! Really excited to see how these girls develop over the next few weeks 🙌 Let’s bring out those peachy gassy terps !

FRENCHPASSIONFARM 🌸 Week 2 – Flowering Progress & Pheno Confirmation Everything is running smoothly in this second week of flower. Phenotypes #36, #38, and #45 are thriving and looking perfectly at home in their environment — steady stretch, healthy structure, and no issues to report so far. As for Pheno #40, after a few days of close observation, it has declared as female! 👀 I immediately decided to preserve it so I can test it properly at the end of the run. All four phenotypes have now been successfully reproduced and backed up: ✅ One version for reproduction ✅ One version for genetic preservation Really exciting phase of the pheno hunt — the flowers are starting to show their potential! Let’s see who shines the most over the next few weeks

FRENCHPASSIONFARM 🌸 Week 3 – Flower Development & Environment Check We’ve entered Week 3 of flower, and everything is running smoothly. All four phenotypes are happy and healthy — showing consistent progress and settling in perfectly in their environment. The plants seem to be responding really well to the MIGRO LED spectrum, with nice stretch control and early flower development coming in clean and balanced. No issues to report so far — structure looks solid, and the pheno hunt continues in ideal conditions. Onward! 🌱🔍

FRENCHPASSIONFARM Week 4 – Defoliation & Selection Prep Week 4 of flower is here, and everything is going beautifully! This week, I performed a selective defoliation — removing lower fan leaves and cleaning out small sucker branches to redirect the plant's energy. The girls handled it perfectly, showing no signs of stress. They’re thriving under the current conditions and stacking up nicely. All phenotypes have already been backed up and preserved, and the plan moving forward is clear: Only the most promising phenos will be reproduced later in my second grow space. The selection is well underway — can’t wait to see who earns a keeper status! 🌟

FRENCHPASSIONFARM 🌸 Week 5 of Flower — The Phenohunt 2025 x La Chanvrière Everything is going smoothly during this fifth week of flower. The three phenotypes (#36, #38, #45) are thriving in ideal conditions, showing nice progression in structure, resin production, and emerging terp profiles. 🔍 Pheno #38 is clearly starting to stand out: Heavy trichome production Dense and promising bud structure And most notably… an incredible peach candy aroma unlike anything I’ve smelled before — a perfect match for the “peach candy” profile we're hunting for this project 🍑🍬 The other two phenos are expressing a sweet peach-like nose as well, very pleasant, but not as clearly defined just yet. All plants are healthy, and things are looking really exciting for the coming weeks 👀

FRENCHPASSIONFARM 🌸 Week 6 of Flower — The Phenohunt 2025 x La Chanvrière We’ve just wrapped up week 6 of flower and the girls are doing great 🌿 Among the three phenotypes, #36 and #45 are showing very similar traits in terms of bud formation, structure, and flowering time — most likely finishing around week 9–10. The main difference between the two lies in trichome production, with slightly more frost on one than the other. 🔥 Then comes Pheno #38 — my personal favorite. Funny thing is, before flipping to flower, #38 was the one I least expected — its early structure and look weren’t very appealing. But now? It’s the fastest, most resinous, and most compact of the bunch. Its internodes are moderately spaced, and the overall plant structure remains short and stacked — very efficient flower-to-leaf ratio. 👃 Terpene report: #36 & #45 lean toward a creamy peach ice cream profile 🍑🍨 #38 stands out with a bold, vibrant peach candy aroma — loud and sweet 🍑🍬 Things are looking fire as we move into the final stretch 👀🔥 Clones are saved, the nose is getting louder, and selections are getting clearer!

FRENCHPASSIONFARM 🌸 Week 7 – Flowering Phase All three phenos are progressing smoothly, with visible resin build-up and increasingly intense aromas. 🔥 Pheno #38 continues to lead the pack — dense, frosty buds and an unmistakable peach candy terp that hits louder each day. The structure is compact, internodes stacked, and trichomes are pushing even onto the fan leaves. A true standout. 📸 This week’s spotlight was dedicated to Pheno #38, with a photo session to capture its insane resin production and candy peach appeal. This one definitely deserves the attention. 🍑 Pheno #36 and #45 maintain their creamy peach profile with good development, though slightly behind in resin production compared to #38. Their bud structure remains consistent and healthy, showing signs of a likely 9–10 week finish. Overall, the room smells like a candy shop 🍬 One more week and the magic will be undeniable
