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 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.

baphomet_botanica Everything as expected. Dirty Grape is doing badly but that’s fine. Massive stress for her to be transplanted from 1L to 11L and thrown into flower on one day. Barf Breath is the star. Vomit Terps are already present and she’s getting purple 🙏 Prepare for huge buds in the upcoming two weeks

baphomet_botanica Last week. Alienlabs would need a couple more weeks but I need that tent. Rest is done to my liking 🙏 Update as soon as they are dried. Overall an interesting grow and I’m hooked to Solfire. Solid pheno imo.

@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 😄 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 😅

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 🎄 lieben es seltenere Sachen zu growen, einfach bisschen aus den Standard Terps ausbrechen und vielleicht den ein oder anderen banger finden. Nächstes Jahr kommt was spezielles das noch nicht auf dem Markt ist. Viel versprechender neuer Breeder :)
