So, a lot of stuff went wrong with this one, but I can't complain too much, since it grew really quickly and the long stretch actually helped out a lot since the plant was behind about 4 weeks. Due to the stretch, it grew really close to the lights to the point where it basically stopped growing buds at a certain range and eventually started fox tailing when I fixed the lighting situation a bit. Due to this, the yield was the lowest this run, but also the smelliest. It's incredibly sour, so it lives up to the name in that regard. I don't get too much else from the smell, but it's really strong. If I put all of the strains next to eachother, the sourness really sticks out and overpowers all the other smells by a lot. The taste is rather strange, I don't have the words currently to describe it, maybe after I have tried it some more, but it's not really my cup of tea. Overall it feels like the strain isn't that stabilized yet, and I don't mean the nanners, that was likely my bad, but the mutations/self-topping I've seen in a couple of different grows for this strain now and it seems to be happening comparatively often with this one.

While I had planned to harvest the Sour Strawberry this week, I now actually had to chop it early after finding a few nanners. Pretty sure it's at least partially my fault due to it being too close to the lights, because it stretched much more than the other plants. I don't think these nanners actually pollinated anything, because they were still inside a sus looking bract, but there might have been others, that I didn't find (yet). I did angle the lights, trying to fix the distance a bit, but it didn't seem to help much, also the 2 weeks where it ran on 80% was probably too much overall since the other plants also look burned. I will have to pay more attention next time and not let it run so long without checking on the plants.

thanks, I don't have any other pictures of it. the nanners were literally hidden inside a bract still, it was just looking a bit "stiff" and slightly deformed (no idea how to describe it, really) as if something more solid was inside it. So I opened it up, saw the nanners, and immediately plucked it
