Strain
This is a Laughing Buddha clone. All my Laughing Buddha genetics come from Barney’s Farms, basically all from one seed that has been cloned and monster cloned, and its clones cloned, etc. Laughing Buddha gives you vigorous growth, and huge swelling buds. It is consistently my top yielding strain - so that is a perk. It is majority sativa with a long recommended flowering time (10 weeks) so patience is required. I harvested this plant partway through the ninth week. It takes many nutrients and has good vegetative growth.
A delayed and long stretch period but then bud explosion quickly to follow. The smell during growing is sort of fuel like, not my favourite, but still intriguing. The size of the buds combined with the resin/trichomes will be mesmerizing. Near the end many of the buds were horizontal from the weight.
Everything went well with this grow and harvest. The taste came out very strong of a sour fuel (not sour diesel!!), maybe a bit pine? I find this strain hard to nail down in terms of taste.
Other than yield, the effects are what shine with Buddha. This is a strong sativa! I would say my rating is actually a 9.5, it is just that I prefer the concussive indica effects - otherwise perfect.
Grow this strain!
