The_Wanderer F1-Hybrid. Seeds are smallish. After imbibition sprouts appear in a day or 2 that are transferred to soil. After some time it produces its first set of true leaves it becomes a seedling.

The_Wanderer 5 weeks after germination, the plants are showing their distinctive adult characteristics. Very short internodal spacing, vigorous side branching, and the form of the leaf is recognizable. I can tell these apart from other plants visually, but I mark them anyway in case I am no longer around they can still be identified by others. Being the first generation of a hybrid the plants are very similar to each other being a 50/50 mix of the parents, yet can be divided into 2 physical expressions. One has very narrow leaves and the other has a leaf that looks more like a hybrid leaf shape. These physical differences may coincide with nuanced effects and flavor.

The_Wanderer Another week and training is still underway but is working fine, nice side branching and tight internodal spacing. It does fight hard against the training. Sometimes They break free of the gardening wire and I have to re-wrap it. Very vigorous and healthy plants, forgiving and tough. Typical adult leaves for Thin Mint. An interesting trait from one of the parents is carried over. It was here I did some light defoliation and took clones. I moistened some coco coir grow plugs and put the cutting inside. They joined some strangers for a nap under a humidity dome. This is the end of vegetation. Time to flower.

The_Wanderer All cuttings have rooted, some better than others. Bud sites are forming everywhere. Those close internodes with LST shoot off into a lot of bud sites. Its ganja fireworks in slow motion.

The_Wanderer Clones doing ok. Changed to 10-14. Relative humidity was too high, 70%, during scotoperiod so I am giving 25% less water and have removed some leaves to help. After 2 weeks I will do more because I don't want to stress them too much. This helped bring the humidity down to acceptable. During photoperiod the relative humidity is acceptable. I'm guessing 4 more weeks of flowering at least.

Scanning through week 10 of flowering I started to think about all the people that knew Thin Mint from buying a clone. That same clone grown by so many people, over and over. Like a CD skipping or a scratched vinyl record. I think about what they missed out on by not seeing more examples of the F1-hybrid like these. Growing resin covered calyx in the middle of the leaves, or the tiny star shape- diving board leaf growing out of the fan leaves. Something primordial? Or is it just experimenting new expressions? I should have thought to fill them with water and see if she... no that's a pitcher plant I'm thinking of. Cannabis is not carnivorous. Cannabis only hypnotizes monkeys to care for it.
