Since I can’t update the rating now I’d say that this strain deserves at least a 9/10. The buds look super frosty still after a dry and a bit of a cure. I dried them a little too long but I’ve got them jarred up with a Boveda 62 pack and the terpene profile seems to be coming back now. The smell isn’t super powerful when you open the jar at this point but it’s got a nice citrusy smell when you crack open a nug. The smoke has a nice earthy taste to it with a little citrus in there as well that I expect to come out more with another week or two in the jar. The high is a nice sativa leaning hybrid that keeps me going and doesn’t knock me out. The come down is a little couch locky if you don’t partake of some more. I have a buddy who smokes entirely too much reefer and even he says this stuff is dank. If he says it’s good, it’s good.
Just another update about 3-4 weeks after harvest. This stuff is just getting better with age. Super powerful head high that lasts for hours. I smoked a little the other night and had just a little more 2 hours later and I was almost uncomfortably high. Fantastic. Would rate 10/10 if I still could.
I get decent results with this stuff but I would say start with about 1/4 strength because a little goes a long way, especially with the Tiger Bloom. The most you’d ever have to give is half of what they recommend in the feeding schedule. Also, you could probably back off the Grow Big in flower unless your plants really tell you they need N or K. Maybe a boost of Grow Big after week 2 and maybe again after about week 6 to make sure you have enough N to get through flower until flush.
Overall this strain was pretty easy to grow and stood up to most of my mistakes, and there were a lot of mistakes on this run. I did find the odd seed here and there while trimming on lower buds, which is for sure my fault and not that of the genetics. The tops all look great though. I’m reasonably sure I was overfeeding her for most of the grow and she got burnt later in flower which may have caused the few seeds/herm flowers I found. I didn’t see any nanners though and I think this strain could really be dialed in if you don’t over feed like me.
One thing I will add is that I didn’t buffer my coco this time with a cal mag solution when I rehydrated it. This was a mistake and caused lots of problems up to and including over feeding and deficiencies. So any new or aspiring coco growers out there, please please please treat your coco with cal mag prior to putting plants in it. You will thank me later, and you’re welcome.
I will update with more pics once the dry and cure are complete.
This was also one of the prettiest plants I’ve grown with the deep purple leaves just before harvest. I’ve got 2 more seeds of this strain and will definitely run it again.

@RussianGrower, thank you for the kind words. I always think I can do better. I do about 1 grow per year for my personal supply and I learn something new every time. Next year I may run a DWC setup.
