Zeven_O_Fyve This seed was the earliest mature seed from a Gelato #33 X Granddaddy Purple female, pollinated by a male CBD Dragon F3. The seeds are larger than average and dark in color, and have a tough outer shell.
The female Gelato x Grandaddy Purple plant had an incredible smell of berries, cherries, perfume and Fuel, while the male CBD Dragon F3 smelled of Bubble Tape with very faint hints of beef broth. The two plants are opposites in almost every respect aside from purple hues during flower.
Of note, the mother preferred a more dry environment while the father preferred higher humidity.

It's doing good, growing at an expected pace. Leaf shape is the mother's, leaf texture is the father's. Both parents showed pre-flower a bit early, so I'll assume the same will be true for this one.

This one is wasting no time, a healthier facsimile of the mother but with thinner fragile leaves of the father with the same faint undertone of purple when viewed in the right light. Based on how the parents grew, I anticipate having an idea of this one's gender within the next 10-14 days. I have no intention of keep a male, so fingers crossed #1 is a keeper.

There's some mild edema and some pronounced clawing going on with the highest developed lateral. I normally grow in fabric pots which let the soil dry out faster, so the plastic pots are probably the issue.
Earliest indicators suggest it's probably a male, as the Stipules have not crossed yet and are pointing away from each other. Sexing by stipule isn't bullet proof, but its accurate more often than not. The male CBD Cannabis plants also had super thin leaves, while the females had thicker leaves, and this offspring has thin fragile leaves, which is another early sign. As this was just a test seed before the rest of the seeds were dry and ready to germinate, I'll probably have to pop a bunch of beans at once next time to see if the thin-leaf male trait got passed down. If so, that will make things much easier for future grows.
