Panama x PCK

[Black Venus]

I'm trying Panama x PCK this year, and I got twins!

They are not separate plants, they're joined at the root. Both shoots were almost equally dominant.

Here they are now, a month later. Still growing in a balanced way with neither dominating the other.

I've tried Panama before and love it, but I grow outdoors in the UK and I have to concede that Panama in its pure form doesn't do too well in the British climate. It grows beautifully but I always have a battle with mould. I wanted to see whether this hybrid suits my climate any better, while still giving some Panama effects. I've never come across anything else like Panama, it has something truly unique about it.

I'm also hoping it will give me some pretty colours. That would be nice.

Welcome to ICMag @Black Venus I'm glad you enjoyed Panama so much and that you have some Panama x PCK going this outdoor season. The cross with PCK is indeed much more suitable for your latitude and wet-cold weather than straight Panama. Happy you got twins from one seed

You are a doing a bit late. Let the soil get very dry, and then use a knife to separate both plants. Transplant them into bigger pots, each in a different pot, and water them with a root stimulator at the correct pH such as Rhizotonic. Hopefully, they will have time to develop a decent structure in a few weeks before flowering.

Thank you @dubi for the advice and the welcome, it's much appreciated.

There is a reason for starting them late. I grow in a domestic garden and we have a hostile legal situation in the UK. For years I battled with plants which always got too big (they can grow huge even in the UK climate) so I was constantly pruning and bending them to keep them hidden behind the fence, and getting anxious about how much smell they produced. A few years ago (following a tip from somebody on a forum) I discovered that the solution was to start my seeds later in the season, so that they naturally produce smaller plants which fit my space without having to bend or prune. Most of my seeds are sown in mid May, and anything I want to grow in the greenhouse is not sown until June, as the plants grow so much bigger in the greenhouse. This works very well and allows me to have lots of small-ish plants, which also enables me to try out lots of different varieties.

How are they doing, @Black Venus ? Got this strain on my list for a while now and I'd love to see her perform in a whimsical climate.

Waiting for restock ..great mood booster with uplifting high , ending with slight sedation. Would like to explore some more fenos.

Curious if Panama is dominant over indicas in general?

Panama x pick green pheno, heltered from the water under the greenhouse, green phenotype, smells of fruit, strawberries, forest, cheese for me, a couple of weeks to go, no sun, flowering with temperatures between 9 and 23 degrees mostly, seems to be in the mountains .

Thanks for sharing pics of your Panama x PCK green pheno @inaka 🦠 she even had touches of magenta in non ripe pistils. Sounds profile sounds and complex Looks advanced enough from here, so inspect for mold spots just in case, and perhaps consider to don't delay much harvest if weather gets nasty foggy.

Not too much @Tranquilidade in my experience indicas shine quite well in F1s when crossed to Panama.

So glad to hear you miss this one @rlsmooth
Yeah, the PCK fem repro and its fem hybrids are being delayed due to work on new projects.
Hope this can be resolved in the mid term.

Here after drying at 22-23° celsius and 50-60% rh, truly refined and incredible, exotic, citric, fruity scents. activating effect first and then relaxing, with its ice or lator 73-160 microns. super interesting genetics, my pheno was green I don't know the differences.

Glad her terpenes and effects are very much of your taste @inaka 🦠 thank you for getting back to us with your insights about her smoke, enjoy!
