Lemon Thai: Grow + hopefully make some seeds !

[VerdantGreen]

looks like they off to a good start. in the germ test i found that the mixed bodhi/DC population seemed to have a bit more vigor than the straight DC's. which is great because that was what was hoping to find.

Just taking down a couple of Sensi LT plants. These are in little pots and faded quite early... but ripened a little longer. Looking forward to sampling these.
This is the Old Bodhi plant that is one of the seed mothers of the repro
at about 9.5 weeks, smells of Lemon, woody, incense and a sharp smell a bit like tomato plants.

And here is the other main seed mother, the new Bodhi plant
this one i think is a little quicker despite being quite a lot more of a narrow leaf/sativa pheno
and smells more of lemon soap with the tomato stem bitter smell and also a touch of something more nasty/skunky which smells to me like Mastic resin (the one they make that horrible Greek liqueur out of).
The yellow spot on the buds isn't a nanner - i went back and double checked before i chopped them.

Just harvesting a sensi run of the #5 Derg Corra seed mother plant, the one that goes purple. Love the resin on this one. Sharp Tangy spicy smell. 9 weeks, temps were cool.

Looking good @VerdantGreen . Interesting that they colored up like that. I dont recall seeing this with the bohdi LT
S1s I grew out or in the amnesia/LT which share same pollen. I'm down to 6 plants as one of the Derg Corra LT/DC plants is male. The taller one from the group. The bohdi/DC group still hasn't revealed sex. I repotted them and put them in the flower room to force sex sooner than I typically like to only because I'll be away from the garden in the next 3 weeks and I want these flowering before I leave. So far the bohdi mix is fairly uniform and showed good root development when I transferred them. They are also a bit more vigorous than the DC/DC group. I'll probably segregate any late flowering males to use as pollen donor on a kona gold/haze and a long flowering thai stick i have going atm. I'll post pics in next soon so you can all see progress.

Ps...I flowered a bohdi s1 plant I've kept both indoors and outdoors this season and had them finish within a week of each other. I'll share a smoke report of my findings in the LT s1 thread soon so be on the lookout.

Hi all, i've had a pack of Bodhi's small release of Lemon Thai 'F3' in the freezer for 10+ years and ive been looking for some LT seeds from another population of plants for a long time. Thanks to a tip off from a member here i managed to get a pack of LT seeds from Derg Corra, a low-key Danish collective.
The Bodhi release: He described the seed mother as an 'indica pheno' and he told me one time that he used two males.. of those 10 seeds i only got six to germ in 3 attempts over the years. The first 4 were run years ago and all girls, 2 hermed in mid flower, other 2 superb clear energetic high, one popped a couple of years ago and was also female, This is what i used to make the S1s which have come out well, herm free and representative of my experience of the line... so this plant is tried and tested and stable and will feature heavily in any repro. My last 3 seeds were wetted a few weeks ago and i got 1 seedling. pics in a minute but it's big, vigorous and looking pretty butch! Only getting 6 to germ out of 10 seeds is not great, i usually do much better, and i suspect that some seeds were never going to grow.. although they looked good. There were reports of a lot of fasciated plants from F4s of the Bodhi selection.. only one reported from my S1s so far. Its pretty clear that widening the genetic pool might help for future generations....

I sowed 9 of the Derg Corra seeds and 8 came up, good start, i was expecting these plants to show more variation and maybe be more narrow-leaf than the Bodhi ones... so of course in reality they actually have fatter leaves and all look pretty similar lol, perhaps slight differences in the sidebranching.

Pics, These first 3 are the tallest of the Derg corra front right. on the left is the Bodhi new plant, which was sowed at the same time as all the rest but is taller and already the most sidebranching, looks quite different.
Back right is the proven Bhodi female from clone, just getting into its stride..
Front right is the Tallest of the Derg Corra plants.

and the smallest 3 Dergs, front plant i initially thought might be slightly more narrow leaf, but now i'm pretty sure it's just a runt. it didn't look to have enough root growth to hold soil together for a repot... so i left it for now, it will probably be culled.

They remind me of a White widow X Thai cross I made using Bros. Grimm White widow female and a Flying Dutchman pure Thai male.

The BG white widow was a cut from their breeding mom that Sly sent me. The Dutchman Thai was purchased from Heaven's Stairway. They started out with fat leaves and tight node spacing. Once they reached about 2' high the leaves narrowed quite a bit to more hybrid look.

I called it White Thai.

However everyone that grew it out including me got really uniform results. High yield, 10 - 12 weeks flowering, powerful high with vey lemony terps.
