How to grow Watermelon Z Fast Version
Taste
Seb's take
Watermelon Zum Zum crossed with OG Eddy Lepp, sweet and lemon-bright with the same fruit character as her slower relations. Sativa-dominant, the high is relaxed yet energetic and euphoric, arriving in a fast-flowering package that hasn't sacrificed potency for speed.
Where it comes from
Watermelon Zum Zum crossed with OG Eddy Lepp, the same fruit-forward pairing behind the original Watermelon Z, here offered by EGS as a fast-flowering version. A fast version keeps the photoperiod genetics but shortens the flowering time, so the grower gets the familiar fruit character on a quicker schedule without moving to a full autoflower. Sativa-dominant by the breeder's account, and bred so that neither yield nor potency was surrendered for the sake of the speed.
Nose & flavour
Sweet and fruity, brightened with a clear note of lemon over the top, much the same melon-and-citrus character as her slower relations, if a touch sharper. It is a clean, zesty nose, more lemon-sherbet than heavy dessert. A refreshing sort of aroma that suits the energetic side of her effect rather nicely.
The high
At 26% THC the effect is relaxed yet distinctly energetic, with a euphoric edge, the sativa dominance keeping things lifted and forward despite the weight of the figure. This is a bright, active high rather than a sedating one, though the potency is not to be underestimated. Fair company for a busy afternoon, provided you treat that number with due respect.
Growing it
A fast-flowering feminised plant, she finishes in around 60 days, quick for the potency and yield she carries. Expect a height of around 120cm and a solid 550 g/m² return. The appeal of a fast version is precisely this: the character and crop of the original on a shortened calendar, with nothing meaningful given up for the speed. Give her the modest headroom her 120cm asks and she is otherwise an undemanding, efficient grow.
