The Combination of Two Legendary Strains
I haven't seen much information on this cross and I can't imagine why it hasn't been done sooner. Though I'm unsure of the source of genetics on either side of the cross, I'm definitely looking forward to the results.
Lemon Skunk looks like this...

and
UK Cheese looks like this...

You May Have Noticed They Look Similar to Each Other
and you'd be correct. Lemon Skunk is a specific variation of skunk, created from the Skunk #1 genetics through two very lemony ladies. UK Cheese is Skunk #1 from the UK area and has it's own specific smells and contributions to the gene pool.
I'm tempted to refer to the cross as Lemon Cheese. :) There are a couple of different smell/effect variations of UK Cheese and I don't have any information on which one was used. Should be an interesting surprise to find out. I have 11 seeds, have put three in pots to sprout, and will be slowly sprouting the rest of them over time.
As soon as they sprout I'll be adding photos of them in the comments. :) WOOT!
Day 4 Photo
Any Promising Prospects Will be Shared Freely
I've donated cuts to other growers for years and I'm looking forward to sharing cuts of some seriously lemon cannabis. :)
Promised Photos...
As mentioned, I found the memory card reader. Thinking of moving to an SD card converter, since the laptop has a built in reader for the micro-sd cards. It's just lacking the slot for a full sized sd-card.
Today's Photo
Keep in mind, these were planted directly in planting mix on the 23rd, 4 days ago. :)
Yesterday's Are Not So Spectacular
I mean really, we're looking at one full sprout and two that look vaguely familiar (just stem poking up) like this...
See the sprout in the middle there? :)
A Bit Over a Week Later
I've been curious as to why there isn't any vigorous growth going on, along with some yellowing. Thought it was magnesium deficiency, until I found out some folks I know are infested with root aphids. Everything was treated today. sigh
Here's a very poor photo of the seedlings so far, working on a better area to photograph in the future. :)
Looks like we have one strong seedling and two that are struggling. We'll see how they turn out after the root aphids are gone. :) Hoping for strong lemon, with little to no roadkill skunk smell. lol
I can't tell you my Favorite Strain hhhhhh
For the first time I know about it . I'll be looking for her in the Internet. Then I decide.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
TY and good hunting :)
I Forgot to Mention...
There's the potential for this cross to produce some extremely loud plants. When I say loud, I mean so loud you can smell small plants from hundreds of yards away.
So here's hoping I find something truly overpowering and amazing. droooool
.
So sorry to hear it. The USA is the nation which pushed all this prohibition garbage in the first place. Now that they're finally realizing the truth, I expect cannabis prohibition to nearly go away. It's going to be another 20 years, but the future is bright.
Good luck to you! :D

;) Shhhhhh...

I started growing this way, 15 years ago when it was still illegal where I lived. Don't tell anyone, don't sell to anyone, don't let anyone smell it and don't grow near people who have problems with drama and calling the police. ;)
looks good ive grown the exodus cheese ,sounds like a winner.
Awesome :)
I'm very excited to see the results of this, it's not often two winners produce something not worth growing. lol
One Has Fully Sprouted
The other two have bent stems showing up through the dirt. Unfortunately, the photos are on a memory card and I've spent the last while looking for my memory card reader. sigh
No worries, it will turn up here in the next few days. I'll post everything available at that time. :)
