Grapefruit Bx1

Grapefruit Bx1 by way of Bilbo Baggins
Basically a Sweet Tooth 2.2 F2 or a copy of the original SWT 2.2 (would be more accurate).
Bilbo used Steves (SOL) Sweet Pink Grapefruit (SPG) cut crossed with Vics (Vic High) Grapefruit x Blueberry backcross F2

This is a prototype release of the BCGA version of the popular Sweet Tooth.

The only downside is that grapefruit only performs efficiently in a few environments, it need more vigour to be suitable to more growers. Therefore, using the unique BCGA blueberry genetics, we crossed select blueberry males with the legendary grapefruit clone. We selected the best of these hybrid males and bred them back to the grapefruit clone to create the first backcross. By backcrossing once we exposed more of the desired grapefruit traits while maintaining the vigour provided by the blueberry.

I am getting ready to test this test cross and am looking for feedback from other growers growing under a wide range of environments. Therefore I'm going to initially release 10 lots of 15 seeds each to the auction. Using these auction lots, we are also going to test out some changes to the way BCGA genetics are packaged and shipped. There is the possibility that a second set of 10 lots will be released.

flowering period: 7-8 weeks
seeds: 15

Grape Mayhem, boy long ago and far away.
He was selling "Mayhem" when I first ran into him. It was Indica x Blockhead. He used a grapefruit clone mom to make the Grape Mayhem.
I miss the "buck a bean" days

When I grew the Grapefruit it was around 75-80 days with the light mover, so figure 70-75. 10-11 weeks. Standard sales chatter. (like buying a truck)
I wonder about the fresh grower who actually grows by that timetable? Be some "up" weed then wouldn't it?

I grew these out a few times, not sure if I posted it or not. Nice plant, easy growing... relatively Nice stone, decently strong weed too. And a certain amount of F4s were made for the future
I've never had grapefruit so I can't confirm the taste.
