Wow, that’s crazy. I have to go back through this thread and catch up. Those leaves have a definite hop look while still looking like a cannabis. Congrats on the germination!
So weird.
I would have never believed this to work, so I’m excited to see the flowers.
Thanks.
Happy May 25th everyone. Germination was 25 days ago. Shortly after the last photo was taken, the plant began shooting up. Here it is today:
Looks like it may need some cal-mag. I’m trying to use some LST to promote side branching.
I’d like to put it outside and let it take over my yard. But I’d also like to have a backup. Not everything survives my outdoor environment. (High mountain desert in the southern rockies)
That looks like a hop plant to me bro…you got me all excited though. Fingers crossed it’s cannabis-hops, lol !!!
Beautiful btw.
Still waiting on my seeds to pop…
I was reading up on Japanese Hops and if you are planning on planting in the ground - This species is considered to be invasive
I’ve gotten 1 out of a dozen to successfully germinate. I also had one in the worm bin germinate, but it never made it past the cotyledon stage. That’s a pretty shitty germination rate. One would think an invasive species would have an easier time germinating.
If this turns out to be real, give me all the invasive marijuana please.
You should top it to see what happens.
LOL
Seeing that makes me happy!
I’m behind. Planting tomorrow in the ground. @Kabuddha it’s Japanese hops that produces hops cones that have t h c resin. The cones are very slightly modified from typical as far as I understand it.
@PineTarBastard looking good!
This is crazy cool weird plant breeding! I love it, it’s so weird. I can’t wait to see what they turn into!
It took a while, but the LST prompted a couple of side shoots to grow. I took a couple of cuttings that went into the aero-garden cloner and the plant will be heading outside this afternoon.
it is ok
I can see how it looks like both cannabis and hops. The early leaves were rounder like hops, but the upper leaves are getting pointy like cannabis.
