Some of you know I did a seed run the end of 2022 into 2023 with a reversed Cap Junky as the āfatherā plant. I made a bunch of S1 seeds but what you may not know is that I made a few hybrid crosses as well. One of them that I am excited about is Cap Junky X Lemon Paki. The Lemon Paki is the āchildā of Doc Bud of Hi Brix fame. Heās kept it in clone form now for a good number of years. I was fortunate enough to acquire a cut of this plant and pollinated a small clone with the Cap Junky pollen making what I very cleverly called Cap Paki 
I started growing one of the hybrid seeds out to see what I might have if anything at all. At first she was having a bit of a rough time of it as the conditions werenāt ideal for her. Not enough light and the light was too high above her ( it had to be) so she got a bit stretchy. When I finally had a good spot to move her to I began training her and shaping her and she responded beautifully. This is a photo of the Cap Paki taken this morning. Iām liking the smell of the stem rubs and very happy with her vigor and thickness of the main and lateral branches. Weāll see what she does.

Two other crosses I made with the Cap Junky were with a couple of CSI Humboldt strains.
Cap Junky X Hawaiian Lites Below is why I chose this strain as a parent.
From CSI site:
We present to you Hawaiian Lites. In its brief appearance in the known cannabis world, tons of speculation and intrigue surround this line. What we do know about this line is that it comes directly from the Northern Lites/Lights Crew via Seattle Greg, the same gentleman who supplied Neville with his Northern Lights stock. We were told that it is NL #5/White Widow/Hawaiian Pineapple hybrid. So we bring to you a faithful representation of an open pollination of Hawaiian Lites.
The second hybrid cross I made with the Cap Junky also with a CSI Humboldt strain.
Cap Junky X Big Bad Wolf 2.0ā¦Here is why I chose this strain to use in the cross.
From CSI:
The reverse hybrid of the original Big Bad Wolf (Chemdog D x Chemdog ā91)ā¦this 2.0 version promises to have many extremely potent individuals with strong stanky terp profiles.
Iām finding now that I am enjoying growing Chem strains and will look to add more Chem strains to my photo and auto seed collection.

I have a whole new secret photo seed making project Iām working on right now. BUT when the plants are ready I am planning on journaling it. I have a very very special girl I will be reversing to be the daddy plant in the project.

Oooh Iād be interested in checking out the big bad wolf( I have 3 huskies/wolf hybrids), just grew out a chem91 x acai sherbet on the last grow and that shit is fire, get halfway through a joint and Iām crosseyed forgetting itās still in my hand as it goes out haha
Might have to see if I still got any leftover beans from it

What is earth alive activated soil just a live soil amendment? Ya I run wit 30% perlite but I have noticed my autos struggle a bit at first maybe need to add more perlite. Thanks @AzSeaindooin420 for the soil building will read when done with work. I usually buy one bag of ffof and mix it with my 30+ gal of used soil to cut it but add some nutes back in soil also mix in recharge definitly need to find a better solution.

I built a light weight frame with sides and a used piece of window screen on the bottom to sift my perlite to get rid of the dust. Picture panning for gold the same motion. Dust comes out the bottom of the screen.
Another benefit of the perlite is that it holds moisture and the lava rock does not. I agree about the perlite dust choking the roots but once itās sifted out I believe the perlite is the better choice.

Okay, so here is the plant I will be reversing in my next fem and S1 seed run. She smells even better then she looks and although Iām biased I think sheās a beautiful girl.

Gonna have to correct u there, both are very porous and both do hold moisture, perlite might hold a little better but lava rock does take in the moisture. I wash both and leave em on a screen rack to dry then move to a different location and tarp till ready and the amount of condensate beads on the tarp of lava rock the first time I washed was unexpected but plenty to show the moisture was there and had soaked in

Thatās awesome a āpancakesā strain is one of ur fav secret stashes, my pride and joy Iāve ran several times is my white truffles x pancakes, only made about 15 seeds of it that a couple here got the pleasure of getting their hands here but those that did were extremely pleased with the plant as well, gonna have to do a seed run of it eventually cuz itās def a keeper

Well, that plant was the āBest of Showā from the pack of Jelly Pancakes seeds. The flower is amazing and because I grow in such confined space itās really hard for me to keep mothers for very long. So for me this plant is Top Tier and I need to keep S1 seeds of her so I can flower out the mom plant. So I can flower out 6 plants at a time and with that being the case whenever I reverse a Top Tier plant for S1 seeds I grow other Top Tier plants as companion plants that I will pollinate with the Jelly Pancakes pollen to make hybrid crosses. Itās nearly time to start the journal as the plants are all about ready to have cuttings taken off them to make clones so I can reveal the lineup for this seed run.

Well then I stand corrected as I was not speaking from first hand knowledge having only used perlite.

Damn thatās a dream team line up! If u happen to get any pollen from jelly pancakes that u can send I know me and @bassman5420 will prob have some interest in it, he recently popped more of the wt x p seeds too so he may be ready to pollenate before I can get to mine again

I sent a buddy on here a few of my Garlic Sherbert seeds. He asked if I had any pictures of the GS flowering and I was surprised that I did as Iāve not grown it in a couple years.

A quick Easter Sunday update on the HubbaBubbaMelloScope. Well it only took her 44 days to start flowering or at least flowering enough that I feel sheās flowering. Longest any auto has ever taken before, for me, to start flowering. But on the bright side at least she did start flowering. I took a close look this morning at the branch Iāve treated 4 times with the STS and cannot say definitively one way or the other if sheās starting to show boy parts. She gets her 5th brush on of the STS tonight before lights out. Iām hoping by this time next week Iāll be able to say Iām seeing boy parts.
