D3monic's Crossing Project/Community Grow

D3monic · Apr 22, 2017

Nice, sounds like plant 4 is the better of the two. It made my favorite powder last summer. Hopefully it retains some of that quality dried. I remember it having a very pleasant smell no bitter.

Don't even bother saving seeds from plant 3.

Sucks to hear about your summer. This is the warmest spring I remember having here. Been getting a lot of 60 to upper 70 degree days (15.5 - 25c) averaging 95 (35c) in the greenhouse already. Could end up being nasty hot here.

Thanks, if the aji omni color x MOA bonnet cross turns out any good i'll shoot some seeds your way. I know how you like the bonnets.

I'd say that cross deserves a really wide f2 grow to try to get a good color changing pheno if possible

I agree for sure! I just wish I could of got more than one f1 seed to germinate.

Tried 3rd and 4th El Scorpenero today.

Will dry the seeds over the next few days and send these and the rest of the varieties I haven't sent yet. I hope its not too late, just our summer this year was the shittest one in as long as I can remember.

El Scorpenero F2 Plant 3: Smaller pod (although there were only a couple on the plant), pretty bitter, very strong chinense smell with not much else that I could tell. Pretty average. Pretty hot, I'd say about same as a standard bhut jolokia and the heat is very quick.

El Scorpenero F2 Plant 4: Bigger, no placenta pretty much, the seeds were sitting on the inside. Much nicer smell than p3, no bitterness in the taste at all, hard to say what the taste is like, some kind of fruit for sure, not too sweet but maybe a bit sour. Not 100% sure, but very nice. Heat similar to p3, about same as a bhut maybe, but the heat is a bit slower building, but not as slow as some.

I'm playing out in the greenhouse for a bit today, it's bloody hot in there. Potting up a few plants and sowed a few of the seeds you sent. I'm sowing El scorponero f3 from plant 1 , the yellow pheno of D3 goat from plant 2, D3 goat plant 1 and the aji inti from plant 1. I'll try and get some pics of the plants while i'm out poking around in them.

The really bushy aji inti f3. Rest are tall and lnky

Hey man I've sent the last set of seeds today, I know its real late but with this summer being so crappy they took forever to ripen. I have 2 more plants here but didnt want to wait too long. Even the ones I sent out will probably be too late but thats the best I could do this year.

No problem man, I can still sow them and probably get some ripe pods. I'll be sure to plant into pots and finish in greenhouse if I need to

Ok this was quite a runty plant from the start, but then grew to full size, was just always a bit behind.

El Scorpenero F2 Plant 5

Shape/colour: this is fully ripened, I kept it there for like 3 weeks as I thought it wasnt fully ripe. This is it man, that's the final colour. Looks awesome, and check out that shape. Wicked!

Smell, I thought I lost my sense of smell, had to ask my wife. No smell at all. Literally none. It's my first time trying a chinense of any type where tehre wasnt any smell at all. Not just no chinense smell, but nothing at all.

Heat, about 150K maybe? Not that hot, but still hot enough to make me cough. I actually took about 1/4 of it in the end as it tasted so amazing and the heat wasnt too harsh.

Taste. Ok, I had to look through the previous post, to see whether I'm losing my marbles or what. One thing I know for sure is that I did not mix the varieties. The labels are stapled to bags, I keep everything separated, etc. The taste is sour apple. No doubt about it. No idea how it can happen since you were expecting it to happen with Aji Inti, but here we are. Im drying these out, will send them to you, and will keep a few to start here as well just to try and make up for such a late one, since you're already pretty much in the middle of your season.

Awesome, interesting that it has no smell what so ever.

I got a few of the previous batch you sent germinated and just sowed the last batch you sent.

Peter S · May 18, 2017

I've been slack posting updates. One of my Painapple clones is putting out pods. The first pods from the mother plant fell off, but these are all staying on and growing.

I don't have a new pic handy of the mother plant, but all the clones are about this size give or take.

Here's a pic of my El Scorponero f2.

Ozzy2001 · May 18, 2017

Can't wait to see how the Painapple looks. That was my favorite of the ones you sent. I'm finally going to get some seeds going soon. I saved those so I will definitely grow them out.

D3monic · May 18, 2017

Awesome, thanks for the updates. Peter those are looking good, maybe too early to tell for sure but looks like it might be a thick walled pheno.

Everyone really liked the painapple I hope there's some keepers in f2

bpiela · May 18, 2017

My Painapple F2's passed away during the aphid wars but I still have an OW F1 that is just a monster. I will post a pic soon.

D3monic · May 22, 2017

Aji Omni Color X MOA bonnet yellow f1. Plant is doing really good. A few burns on the leaves not sure what from. Think we had a acidic rain as all the plants under the greenhouse window got burned like that.

Baccatum flowers

two per node

Malarky · May 22, 2017

fingers crossed for a good color change (and taste!)
happy that it is showing its baccatum side

SentencedToBurn · May 22, 2017

Dude I cannot wait for this one man. Agree with Malarky, baccatum flowers and multiple flowers per node hopefully equals the right combination. I'll put like 30 growbags aside just for this cross if you'll get this many F2 seeds man.

D3monic · May 22, 2017

This is one I wouldn't share with many until stable. Probably just between the few of us. Will save most the seeds I get.
