📝 Notes
I actually wanted to start this diary much earlier, but I had some bad luck with germination, and the weather was extremely hot at the same time. RQS kindly sent me three new seeds, really appreciate it 🙏
I am really curious to see how Apollo F1 performs on my balcony. After growing Epsilon F1, I especially want to find out if this one can stay just as discreet in terms of smell. Since this run will probably finish quite late in the season, maybe around September, it will also be interesting to see how she handles the changing weather.
Apollo F1 sounds like a very exciting F1 hybrid to me. Royal Queen Seeds describes her as a uniform and stable autoflower with a complex aroma of pine, lemon, herbs, vanilla and a hint of lavender. That sounds very different from my blueberry focused Epsilon F1, so I am looking forward to comparing them.
I germinated the seed in moist paper towels. This method still works best for me and has given me the most consistent results so far. After two days, she was placed into a coco jiffy and then directly into her final pot.
