baphomet_botanica Sometimes the best genetics aren’t planned — they just appear, dragged from the compost heap like nature’s own experiment. This run pairs a certified funk bomb, Solfire’s Barf Breath, with a complete mystery: the bastard of an unwated pollination. Father is a Zour Diesel by James Loud and the pollinated plant is an unknown tree that sprouted right to the compost. Supposed to be a Hollands Hope. I’m running both under the same conditions to see how far good soil, light, and patience can carry two plants born from very different origins. One bred for performance, one born of decay. Let’s see which one speaks louder. Rough timeline 02.11.2025 - Put in glass of water 03.11.2025 - Into the paper town 04.11.2025 - Put in soil (2/3 Unknown germinated, 1/1 Barf Breath)

baphomet_botanica Performing good. Alienlabs is already in full flower mode. Buds are developing and some nice stacking branches. Barf Breath also right before having true buds. Had to replace the unknown cross with a Dirty Grape. She’s looking rough but doing better than earlier that week. Expecting buds during next week.

baphomet_botanica Alienlabs at front already throwing the Take 2 Citrus Terps. Barf Breath back left has huge tops, no smell except on stem rub which is disgusting. Dirty Grape back right recovered and is doing her thing.

baphomet_botanica Another week has passed. Couple of Calcium issues but that’s expected with high PPfD. Nothing to worry about. Barf Breath will have huge buds. Smells pretty sweet at the moment but getting peppery. Hoping for funky terps. Biskante x Kryptochronic is doing fine. Very lemony. Stacking is good but buds are small as always. Dirty Grape is growing without issues. She’s a week behind, let’s see how she will finish.

@Ganjin, the big in the front is probably 2-3 Months old. Was a bonsai mum in a 1L pot, decided to grow her out šŸ˜„ I'm interested in the unknown cross, so far her spacing is pretty bad. Hope she doesn't stretch too much and turns out to be a female šŸ˜…

Sehr interessante Genetiken bei dir. Ich bin auch ein großer Fan von selteneren Strains. Da beibe ich neugierig wie die am ende aussieht. Frohe Weihnachten.

@Stony_German, wünsch dir/euch auch frohe Weihnachten šŸŽ„ lieben es seltenere Sachen zu growen, einfach bisschen aus den Standard Terps ausbrechen und vielleicht den ein oder anderen banger finden. NƤchstes Jahr kommt was spezielles das noch nicht auf dem Markt ist. Viel versprechender neuer Breeder :)
