Star Lotus. The first Snow Lotus autoflower.

[rinsewarrior]

Hello! I am new to this community but not new to The Community. I keep finding myself getting removed from social media platforms so I am finally coming here to settle down. Either way, I am Rinsewarrior and I am the breeder for Rinse's Reserve. I decided to show the project I have been working on the longest first. I worked Snow Lotus (Bodhi Photoperiod) to autoflowering format using Blue Microverse which I have been reproducing for a few generations and using for projects. The plant pictured is Star Lotus F3 (F4 generation mother #6). I will continue posting and commenting as I become more used to the format. I am a team member at Great Lakes Genetics and good friends with the good doods at Laughing Hyena. I also have a few projects in the works using both of our genetics. Anyway, I hope everyone has a grand occasion

@rinsewarrior good to see you here. I'm sure the folks here would love to see some of your other work.

Lot's of other great breeders and growers here as well

Welcome RW! ...a friend of LH is a friend of ours!

Very noice looking cross here mate, and I love the parentage- ... Uncommon to see with Bodhi's fine works, and Daz is good'un too!

Tell us more about this cross so far... aroma, high qualities, grow specifics... is it fully auto yet or is that looking to be locked down in F4?
Speed is something of a deal maker/breaker, we find here at AFN... Too long of a life cycle starts to beg the question about why not just run a photo and save $$ on the lighting costs. Size/space limitations are pretty common too...

Good to know you're in the seed bizz, a tough arena to say the least! And our mate LH (and co') is one of my fav's out there
I'm finding the craft breeders, small co's, even private hobby breeders are making the Goods as well or very often, better than the McBreeders and Big Houses ... to say nothing of prices these days, hey?!

The high is what Bodhi would call a "heady indica" high. Physically relaxing and euphoric but mentally stimulating so you are still capable of doing the daily tasks and then some. Her scent profile ranges from incense, spice, funk, sour lotion, blueberry. I have grown them in 1/4 gals and half gals of soil along with outdoors direct sow and in large pots and they tend to thrive both in and outside. I have them being run by a few testers now in their environments and mediums so we will see how she holds up. She seemed to be liked by many others when I sent out the F1 Fast flowering gen so I imagine being fully auto at F4 now with stabilized traits people will enjoy her even more. I sure do. She is a 75/90 day from seed type of cultivar depending on the grower. I have the F4 generation in testing now so I will see how they finish up for myself and the testers running them. But either way, I don't tend to choose for speed with my breeding. I choose for smell and effects since I grow all of the seeds I make and make them first and foremost for my own tent. Most bigger name breeders in the community don't seem to grow their own work I have noticed. If an auto is fast but doesn't have the effects of one that runs a bit longer I will definitely go with the longer running plant type to get the effects I am searching for. But as you said, craft breeders who are actually a part of the community are what the community should be growing. Thanks for taking notice of my first post I appreciate it. I will continue showing my work.

Finally found my way to the forums. I guess I have had an account here for a few years now and never used it.

What is your yield per plant in that photo?

What is your yield per plant in that photo?

I would have to weigh it. I usually just go by how many jars each plant fills and if I could guess that plant would be a nice jar of good flowers. Only thing is that plant is heavily seeded. What I do with heavily seeded plants I am also testing is i shuck the seeds and then smoke the scraps for about a week to test the flower quality and if it holds up while seeded. Then I sift the rest for kief in which I press into hash biscuits. While breeding I tend to do most of my plants in 1/4 gallons of soil in order to have more space for more plants.
