Strain
This is Crop King’s Black Indica! Not my first time growing this strain, and this was a true make-or-break as I’ve had one pretty average to good result and one bad outdoor result (at not much fault of the strain). This iteration was a clone that I am forgetting if it was a monster cropped clone or not (from a flowering mother plant). It branches naturally from one stem like I would expect a monster crop. This growth pattern produced many tops which created small to medium sized crowns. I was concerned with flowering time but the buds did get dense and produced what I would consider a good yield of just quality bud - high standard on composting all fluff and shake.
Keeping the branches upright was a challenge over time but I did successfully tie the branches as a bouquet and to the frame of the tent for support.
Unfortunately this plant was a culprit in terms of crowding out other plants.
The smell and tastes during growing and vaping are similar, a sharp, pungent sour sort of dank. No trace of fuel. More like a sourish White Widow type vibe.
The effects are improved compared to my other two versions. The first trial may have just been overshadowed by similar strains, but the second trial was weak. This indica effect is a bit stronger, not concussive, but I had good trichome layering during harvest and these buds can relax you. Overall, I was really happy in this area.
I would say medium to potentially strong indica with an interesting taste that you either love or hate, a bit sour and dank. Easy to grow. This strain is not going to blow your mind but seems to be a respectable indica that has moved up in the world imo.
