Gelato X GrandDaddy Purple (Cheap Seeds)

Zeven_Xero_Fyve . End of Week 1: She's growing well. The leaf appearance reminds me of the Fruity Pebbles 2.0 after week 1, but given they share much of the same lineage it's probably to be expected.

Zeven_Xero_Fyve . end of Week 2: She's doing better than she looks at first glance, a small issue with early leaves being deformed, but from looking through other diaries on here the problem seems to be genetic, specifically with Granddaddy Purple Auto from what I can see. Just me musing over the how's and why's here; QCS claim 20% of the seeds are Autoflower, but I suspect it's more like all the seeds have a 20% chance of being Auto, making the entire project a write-off (as far as commercial breeding is concerned) and maybe why the cross is only available as "cheap seeds." By deduction it's the most likely explanation, since otherwise they'd be selling a stable version for full price. Regardless of what went down, I'm fine with a little recessive genetics roulette, especially when its between two very potent cultivars. 😊
