Take Key Lime Pie, a Girl Scout Cookies phenotype selected for its citrus, and put it over Blue Power, Blue Power - the plant Sin City have leaned on for over a decade. That is BLUE LIME PIE reg (KEY LIME PIE X BLUE POWER). Sin City have been running these house parents for over a decade. The value in a cross like this is as much in the known half as in the new one.

This is the regular version. Males come with it, and a good male is the thing you cannot get from a feminized pack at any price.

Key Lime Pie sits on the seed side here, Blue Power on the pollen side. If you have seen these two names paired the other way round, that is a different pack and not this one.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: Key Lime Pie. The citrus-forward cut of the Cookies family. Its own history is not clean. Two Californian outfits are named as its origin - Purple Caper Seeds and Burning Bush Nurseries - and one account has it made deliberately by crossing GSC to Lime Skunk and backcrossing to a GSC F2 male rather than found as a phenotype. What every account agrees on is that it sits inside the Cookies family.
• Father: Blue Power. Sin City's flagship male, and the reason their catalogue holds together. Its own cross is a Power clone crossed to a White Moonshine male in 2010; the Power side is given as Sour Double x Master Kush, and White Moonshine as The White x Blue Moonshine. The mother was bought simply as Power from Progressive Options, a Prop 215 shop in the San Fernando Valley that dealt in elite cuts, and a persistent rumour says it was really the cup-winning Sour Dubb. Nobody has settled that.
• Why it is worth a pack rather than a look. The two sides are far enough apart that seedlings genuinely differ. That range is the product.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

Two distinct smells, and a pack will give you both plus everything between.

• The Aroma. Lime zest and citrus peel over sweet dough, with earth and cream underneath from the Key Lime Pie side, against sweet kush over sour fuel, with a creamy berry note behind it from the Blue Power side.
• The Taste. Citrus over dough up front, turning to citrus and berry finishing earthy through the exhale.

How the two sides differ

• Timing. Key Lime Pie runs sixty-three to seventy days, so eight to ten weeks, and that is the half of this cross you can actually plan around.
• The smell is a negotiation. Lime zest and citrus peel over sweet dough, with earth and cream underneath on one side against sweet kush and sour diesel with creamy blueberry and vanilla behind it on the other. Neither wins outright in every seedling.
• Structure varies hard here. About seventy-five percent indica; dense compact flower, light green with purple coming through, under a heavy coat of trichomes from one parent; indica-dominant, usually put around eighty twenty from the other. Plan the canopy for the taller outcome.
• Opposite ends. Key Lime Pie is reported as the settled, indica-weighted end of the Cookies family; Blue Power as heavy on the body with the mood lifted rather than flattened. The cross sits somewhere between and moves plant to plant.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. The two parents disagree here, so plan for range. Key Lime Pie is compact and indica-weighted, colouring purple against pale green. Blue Power is weighted to the indica side by a wide margin.
• Veg and stretch. Set the frame while it is cheap to do. Anything you fix after the flip costs you flower sites.
• Flowering Time. Key Lime Pie runs sixty-three to seventy days, so eight to ten weeks. Start checking trichomes a week before you expect to be ready.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe Key Lime Pie as the settled, indica-weighted end of the Cookies family.
• The Body. Blue Power is reported as heavy on the body with the mood lifted rather than flattened, and that is the side supplying the weight here.

In the pack

Seeds from Sin City Seeds. Sin City have worked out of Las Vegas since 2010, and their catalogue is built the way a breeding programme is rather than the way a shop is - a handful of proven house plants, crossed out again and again into whatever is worth crossing them with.
