Passion #1

Passion # 1 is great for growers wanting an early finishing variety,it is always ready to be harvested by the second week of September,here in South UK.

This picture was taken on the second of September and as you can see, the Passion # 1 plants on the left side of the photo are almost ready to harvest.

On the right side is a Durban Poison, a strain that needs much more time to finish than Passion # 1.

Garden Grow 2018

Seed planted in late April 2017. Three weeks from germination, the plant had 5 nodes and grew vigorously. The leaves were broad, bulky indica type. One month after germination, I replanted her into a larger container. Six weeks after germination, the plant was mainlined at the third node and recovered soon, continuing her vigorous growth. Both branches had 4 nodes each. The main stem split up slightly so I used soft wire to keep it together. The split healed well.

The plant kept on growing and thriving but stayed rather small. I moved her to a larger container again. The stem and branches grew firm and woody yet no splitting of branches occured.

At the end of August, she had some 50 cm and 13 branches, the leaves were rather thin and small buds started forming. She finished in early October - yellowing leaves, most pistils turned brown, ripe smell and quite sticky.

Guerilla Grow 2018

Seed popped in mid-April. The seed took longer to pop than others and the initial development of the seedling was average to poor, then she caught on. Five weeks from germination, the plant had 5 nodes and grew well. Six weeks from germination, I planted her in a pre-prepared hole in my guerilla garden （fertilized with composted manure, worm castings and added some dolomitic lime for good measure）. Towards the end of June, the plant had about 140 cm and about 12 nodes （with a split at the 8th node, probably due to weather or deer damage）. The plant had 3 main branches and appeared healthy. The following two months of extreme drought and high temperatures, along with deer messing up the patch, did not do her any good. Towards the end of August, the plant visibly suffered from drought, lost most of her fan leaves and the development of the plant was stunted - the main stem rather thin, the crown underdeveloped and thin, with only a few miniature buds at the ends of branches. Lower branches were dry altogehter.

In the second half of September, I found the plant with the stem broken in the split - yet it managed to survive and finish completely as the outer bark was still there. The harvest was meager, however most of the buds were in good condition and only a few had dry mold （the dry weather continued and the branches were supported by the undergrowth around the plant）.

Too leafy, id rather smoke clusters of bud than clusters of leaf

dont waste your time with this one

high rate of hermaphrodites in current seedstock, the same problem is reported with blueberry from dutch passion, although its still a good smoke
