The search for Pineapple and Passionfruit phenos

Hi everyone!
After 8 years cultivating this sacred plant, I have finally decided to creat a diary to share my experiences.
I am currently working on a pheno hunt to find the tastes and aroma of Pineapple and Passionfruit, that in my recent studies, please correct me if I am wrong, I found out that is a combining of terpenes in the right amount.
The Pineapple can be expressed by the combination of Ocimene, limonene + myrcene and the Passionfruit flavor can be found with the lucky combination of Myrcene, Terpinolene and Ocimene. I have this terpenes in the backgroud of my genetics, that is:

Male: Papaya Cream (sour diesel ā€˜feno papaya’ x glue cream)

Female: Radical Juice (tropicana cookies x runtz)

The female has a delicious smell of grape candy, probably from Zkittlez and Runtz.

I have popped out some seeds from this cross, will post here the outcome soon, lets see what comes of it. Super anxious to see the results!

Very cool! I hope you find something great! Love those tropical sour fruit flavors on my end.

Reminds me I have some Pineapple Upside Down Cake fems from Humboldt that are supposed to be high in ocimene. I need to look through those more. I grew one out and the terps were good (though not heavily ā€œpineappleā€) and the bud structure was dense, but I tossed most of it because it developed bud rot on me. I’m now better able to manage humidity to prevent that in the future.

There is also Passionfruit Hashplant from Bodhi, but I don’t have much info on it

Great looking plants! I can’t speak as to the specific terpenes, but 7east has a Pineapple Punch Bx that I’ve ran a few times, and every time, it literally smells more like pineapple than cannabis. The only plant I ever had to wear a mask to trim because it was so pungent that it would make me sneeze every 10-20 min.

thank you so much!
I also love tropical fruit flavors in cannabis. And the creamy side of Glue Cream makes everything better, I imagine some fruit smoothie coming from this ladies!
Try out those seeds, I’d love to see what can come out of it, looks some fire quality!
I can imagine bro, bud rot is one of the saddest things to see in the girls, I’ve been there :pensive:
I’m currently in love with some strains from Bhodi, passionfruit hashplant and dragonsblood hashplant to be more specific (and the Terpinolene Machine from CSI Humboldt), but for now its inacessible to me, due to financial reasons :money_with_wings:
Thats why i’m going on this search, maybe find a keeper :crossed_fingers:
Thanks for stoping by my friend!

Pineapple Fields from Dynasty for the pineapple.

I’d say anything from Dynasty with Kali Snapple will present you with pineapple terps. Moose and Lobsta, Megafauna, Lime Berry Megafauna.

thanks everyone for replying!

Today, I made some moving, the girls that was outdoor is now under a quantum bar 320w and a 1x1x2(m) tent. The mother Radical Juice was drying in the tent, put her on the jars and released the space for next cicle.

Here where I live, the south hemisphere, photoperiod is right now in bloom time, the days are shorter, thats why in a coulpe weeks they do not developed well.

All the plants are Radical Juice x Papaya Cream, except the one in mid-right. That one is another Radical Juice, that I intend to backcross with Radical Papaya Cream.
I’ll try to update this journey here once a week, hopefully they develop beauty!
jah bless!

Hi everyone!
Things are really going well over here. I’m loving the expressions on this cross.
Picture taken yesterday. Of ten plants, 8 became female.

This is the male that was sacrified:


And this is the male that I selected to backcross with another radical juice. I have rubbed his stem and selected by the smell of grape smoothie. I believe that this backcross will stabilize the Runtz side of Radical Juice, providing Linalol, Myrcene and Ocymene. That will be good stuff.

Today is the 12 day of flower, keep growing!
