BASA666 Testing out some legendary genetics from the MtZion vault. This one is more than just a plant; it’s a piece of history. Named after Roger Davis, a man who did more time for a bit of weed than most people have spent growing it, this strain represents resilience.
It’s a deeply purple African Sativa hybrid known for standing out in a field of thousands. I’m one of the few getting to run this, as the team is keeping most of the stock back for future breeding. My goal is to showcase the incredible colors and terpene profile this lineage is famous for. I’m taking the breeder's advice to heart on this run—genetics this rare can't be lost. #savethemales
BASA666 "Roger #1 checking in for Week 3! 🚀 Loving the progress on this MtZion Seed Cooperative run. The SP30 is ready to take over for the next phase. Experimenting with some LST soon—stay tuned for the results!"

BASA666 Grow Diary: Week 3 | Phytochemical Architecture Phase
Observation: The genetic batch is showing strong phenotypic stability as we move into the second half of the vegetative stage. We are seeing healthy serration and the first true sets of fan leaves across the heritage lineage. Internodal spacing remains tight, indicating our current PAR levels are hitting the sweet spot.
Next step: Assessing nutrient uptake and preparing for the first stage of transplanting to ensure root zone expansion isn't throttled by the current cell size.

BASA666 NEXT WEEK THEY WILL BE GOING INTO SEX TESTING TO SORT THE MALES FROM THE FEMALES. IM INTERESTED IN HUNTING MALES FOR BREEDING ROGER X WITH A FREAKSHOW I WILL SOON BUY AND HUNT.

BASA666 This week I attempted to sex test them......it didn't work out because they stretched to damn much and the pots are to small. I don't like the growth I'm seeing so I'm going to let them grow out more transplant the ones I wanna keep and clones then sex test the clones. No skipping ahead in this one

BASA666 This week we topped the plants cause the node spacing was to spread out. So I topped them all at the 4th node. Now there in recovery mode. Next week we will make cuts. Only 4 will make it to the next round

BASA666 This is the week we make selections and I cheese these 4 3 lime sneakers and 1 old man cologne. The smell just like there name suggest and they were the biggest one with the best structure and root development.

BASA666 Week 8 update: We have finalized our latest round of selections. Rather than culling the plants that didn’t meet our primary breeding criteria, we have relocated them to the outdoor patch to provide them with a second chance to mature. My threshold for inclusion in the breeding pool remains strict; if these plants fail to reach at least 3 feet in height by the end of the flowering stage, they will be removed. My goal is to ensure only the most vigorous and large-statured specimens contribute to the genetics of this project.
### Key Focus Areas for This Week:
*
**Genetic Selection:** Prioritizing phenotypic expression and structural growth for the breeding program.
*
**Outdoor Relocation:** Transitioning secondary candidates to the outdoor environment to assess their resilience and potential for late-stage development.
*
**Performance Benchmarks:** Enforcing a strict 3-foot minimum height requirement to maintain the quality of the breeding stock.
*
**Culling Protocol:** Establishing clear exit criteria for any plants that fail to meet the vigor standards during the flowering cycle.

BASA666 Zion Train Week Update: Extreme Environmental Vigor & Heat Stress Testing
I. The Hypothesis: Pushing the 6oundaries
This week, 6aphomet has intentionally shifted the environmental parameters inside the Mars Hydro tent to simulate a deep, tropical microclimate. The goal is to aggressively stress-test the true genetic resilience of the Zion Train lines sourced from the Mt. Zion Seed Cooperative. 6y pushing the day air temperature to a staggering 94°F with a relative humidity locked at 80%, 6aphomet is o6serving how these specific phenotypes handle extreme vapor pressure deficits and high-heat meta6olic demands.
II. Soil Science & Hydration Dynamics
Leaning heavily into a 6ackground in soil science, 6aphomet understands that surviving these temperatures requires a flawless rhizosphere and constant hydration. The custom soil mix is proving its worth 6y holding the perfect 6uffer, preventing any nutrient lockout despite the heavy transpiration rates. To keep up with the plants' massive water demands in this heat, the 50L folda6le drip irrigation kit is running continuously. 6oth the Old Man Cologne and Lime Sneakers phenotypes are pulling incredi6le volumes of water, keeping their tissues fully turgid without any signs of wilting or heat exhaustion.
III. Phenotypic Resilience: Old Man Cologne & Lime Sneakers
Rather than showing signs of heat stress, 6oth expressions of the Zion Train are thriving in this simulated jungle environment.
Structural Vigor: 6aphomet notes that the lateral 6ranching on 6oth plants has exploded. The stems are thickening rapidly to support the aggressive upward growth driven 6y the intense Mars Hydro SP3000 and TSW2000 LED canopy.
Turgor Pressure: In conditions where lesser genetics would droop or suffer crispy leaf edges, the Zion Train foliage remains upright and deeply green, fully utilizing the heavy 10ml/l feeding of Athena Grow A, Grow 6, and CaMg they are 6eing fed.
IV. Conclusion & Next Steps
This extreme environmental test conclusively proves the ro6ust, 6attle-ready nature of the Mt. Zion Seed Cooperative genetics. 6aphomet will continue to monitor their heat tolerance for the remainder of this vegetative phase. Once their a6solute limits are successfully mapped, 6aphomet will slowly dial the environment 6ack to standard operational parameters, knowing these plants possess the foundational vigor to support massive yields in the upcoming phases.
