Lantz

Lantz or Hybrid (Indica Dominant) is a strain that typically contains THC levels between 24% – 28% and CBD levels ranging from < 1%. Known for its Sour Candy, Tropical Fruit, Creamy Gas profile, this strain has a growth expectation of being Medium (3.5 – 5 ft indoors) in height, with a nutrient demand that is Moderate; sensitive to heavy salts/overfeeding in early Veg.

This Hybrid (Indica Dominant) is of the Genetype: Photoperiod. The Lantz strain has 3 phases of the growing cycle.

The first phase is the Seedling Phase. Once you have decided to grow Lantz in either soil or hydroponiclay, the ph levels need to be monitored. The ph level desired by Hybrid (Indica Dominant) is 6.0 – 6.5 and 5.6 – 6.0 hydroponically. During this infancy stage, Lantz needs to maintain a target temperature of 75°F – 82°F for 2 to 3 weeks. Once the seed germinates, it will sprout it's first set of round leaves, or the cotyledons. If you are able to maintain the target humidity of 60% – 70% RH, the iconic serrated leaves will just begin to show themselves. During this critical Phase 1 of the Hybrid (Indica Dominant) growing cycle the plant is establishing a strong root sytem. Beginners often over water these fragile seedlings. Do not drown your seeds. You seedling Lantz needs care and gentle light. The recommended light cycle for growing Lantz is 18/6 for the first cycle, which should last .

The next is the Vegetative Phase. The Lantz will focus entirely on size and structural integity. The temperature needs also change for phase 2. If a target temperature of 72°F – 78°F is maintained and a target humidity of 45% – 55% RH is achieved, the Hybrid (Indica Dominant) will grow stems, branches and plenty of large fan leaves. This Photoperiod is trying to build it's own solar panel of leaves to absorb energy. It is critical to maintain a proper light cycle of 12/12 for the entire phase 2 schedule. This consistent energy will help plant grow bigger without producing flowers, focusing it's energy on growing tall and strong. Lantz is at it's most resilient and may grow quickly. As phase 2 comes to an end, it may be topped or tied down, as it's training suitability is considered Excellent; responds well to Topping and LST to manage canopy.

The most exciting phase, when growing Photoperiod is the Flowering Phase. The plants adulthood lasts . It is at this phase that the light cycle changes for the last time. Lantz will produce the most flowers when the light cycle is 12/12. Keep the temperature and humity controlled at 65°F – 74°F (Lower temps enhance purple hues) and 35% – 45% RH so you can really watch this plant strecth and almost double in height. It will want to start producing early into the flowering process.

You will know the Lantz is ready when the white hairs (pistils) turn amber/brown and the resin glands (trichomes) look milky or cloudy, rather than clear. Cutting the plant down even a week too early can significantly reduce the potency and weight of your harvest. Patience in the flowering phase will provide the best possible outomce of Hybrid (Indica Dominant) with a desired gorwth profile that will be:
Vigorous vegetative state; 1.5x to 2x stretch during early flower

Growers Notes: Terpene preservation is key; avoid high heat in the final 2 weeks. Very resinous—great for washing/concentrates.
Lineage: Zkittlez x (Gelato 41 x Runtz)
Breeder: Umami Seed Co
Primary Terpenes: Caryophyllene, Limonene, Linalool
