This bud is fantastic! It smells of sweet earthy dough, and the high hits you hard. It starts off in my shoulders and neck, which I can feel start to loosen within the first few minutes. Then the cerebral comes in heavy almost Headband ish' before it creeps through the rest of your body, relieving nausea, muscle tension, headaches, and stress, to leave you feeling blissful and ready to be poured into a restful sleep. This can be a nice sociable buzz if taken moderately.
This was a great cycle. She grew in an easy to train manner, side branched well, and gave tons of super dense rock hard buds. I would like to see a little more frost on her though, so I will need to work on that in the next go.
