Day 10 from germination.
about 4" of growth.
Using Orchid Pots which have drainage holes at the bottom and sides for good airation. Also transparent to view root development and to time transplant to final pot (about 10 days)
Day 21 from seed.
Solid growth after a slow start due to a little leaf damage/malformation which happened during embryogenesis.
Gradually lowering my main flowering light which is currently at 30" whilst watching for any signs of light shock (heat will not be an issue).
Day 21 from seed
Good solid growth after a slow start
Still a bit on the small side, runt of the litter due to the damage at embryogenesis, so kinda rooting for this little fighter
Quite an early harvest date of 4 March
Day 34 from seed.
Pre-flowering in full swing with budlets expected within next 7 days.
This poor unfortunate plant had some damage in embrogenesis which left her with malformed leaves and very slow growth
She has shot up a bit but is still the runt of the litter with a very compact and squat form.
Growth has been improving but I do not hold out any high hopes for her.
Day 38 from seed.
After a very slow start, she is now starting to pick up a little.
Still a little on the small side but starting to stretch, she may just be on internal clock that is 2-3 weeks slower than the other autos as her flower development is very embryonic.
VPD is circa 10 - 11 which is just a smidge low for ideal flower but pretty decent for my basic budget tech.
Day 46 from seed.
This would be an outstanding plant if only it was 24" taller!
Very dense/strong side/internal branching, vigorous growth - just incredibly compact.
I have defoliated very lightly and staked some of the side branches to spread them out and allow for better light penetration into the canopy.
I am expecting a perfect little 'Bonsai Bud Tree'
Day 52 from seed.
Have staked and adjusted to spread stems and get some light penetration.
Normally I do not defoliate, but I have had to a little on SALH because it has such a dense leaf/bud ratio
Won't be a high yield for this pheno but the buds should be nice and dense
Day 59 from seed.
She is still another three, possibly four weeks from harvest.
This pheno has a very high leaf to bud ratio which requires far more agresssive thinning than I have carried out. I generally avoid defoliation but with this pheno it is necessary.
Main cola is already thicker than my forearm, however, I think this pheno leans a bit more towards her ruderalis heritage and is quite small in height and generaly very compact.
Good strong lemon smell.
Day 66 from seed.
Breeder advises 65 days to harvest. This pheno is still around 2-3 weeks away.
Trichomes all clear.
Will pop three other seeds I have of this pheno to see if they all lean towards their ruderalis heritage like this one.
Day 79 from seed.
Trichomes turning milky
Despite her short stature, her buds are very dense and solid
That Lemon 5 Pheno is really coming through, very sticky
About a week to 10 days left.
Day 88 from seed.
Wet trimmed prior to chop and whole plant hang for 7-10 initial dry
She didn't get very tall but she did develop some very nice and dense buds
Good sour lemon smell and plenty of finger hash
This particular pheno was short in stature but very dense. Good sour lemon smell but due to the leaf density, this strain will absolutley require a cure before sampling as her chloryfil levels are very high. Better than expected harvest of 71g of medium and large bud with a further 13g of high quality trim and larf for the hash bag. Despite her short stature, she developed very large and dense buds with very little larf , although she did require opening up with stakes to get better light and air penetration. I will post a 'cure and smoke' update in a few weeks.
