After drying and trimming this girl, I knew she was going to yield much less than i originally thought. That being said, Im still happy with the weight. She grew very quickly and stayed extremely squat. She finished just under 20 inches tall. I could have fit at least 9 of these ladies in a 4x4. The buds are sprayed with trichomes, but mostly airy. I attribute this to the underfeeding and also cutting her a tad early. Im pretty sure the temps were higher than she liked as well. Once she hit flower, she got very very hungry. If i gave her what she needed, im sure this would be a different story. Although she has lots of airy buds, there are a few top buds with better structure. Trimming her was a PITA because of this... and i decided to leave her a bit leafier than i would EVER trim normal density bud. I might go through and do a re-trim. But i took off literally everything that wasnt sprayed in frost. The ease of growing and terpene profile is what makes me give this strain an 8/10. She grew very quickly and responded very well to LST and defol. Her terpene profile is TBD, since she is curing. Very gassy, with a sweetness. Would i grow these genes again? Sure. But not anytime soon. I love the terps on her so far, but there are many other strains in line that will blow this one away, sorry to say. If i had the option to, i would cure her without trimming and press her for her oils. I will update this review once she is finished curing and i smoke her up. Smoke report after a VERY short cure: Wow. The terps on this girl are so tasty. I know shes not finished curing, but i tried out two smaller buds that dried out and cured for 48 hours. Even after the short cure, the flavor is pretty damn good. Im trying to pinpoint what it tastes like. Upon breaking a nug open and grinding it, a loud, sharp fuel smell is set free. Upon smoking it, i get an almost nutty, woody, diesel like flavor that sticks around for a while. On the exhale, I get more of the gassy terp flavor. As I sit, trying to analyze the flavor, i notice the gassy terps lingering in my mouth. This is a very tasty smoke. UPDATE AGAIN AFTER 8 DAY CURE: ok, so i didnt do her justice by smoking her without a cure. But to be honest, she didnt really need much of a cure. She still has the same flavor and nose, just more refined. She is extremely potent. I got to smoke a bowl and forgot my name. I could hardly form sentences after it really set it. Very very heavy indica. Doesnt make me too sleepy, just gives a sedative, relaxed feeling. The buds arent necessarily airy like i originally posted. Just skinny. And sputnik-like. It might be the trait of the genes, who knows. The buds firmed up a bunch now too, now that theyve dried out a bit with the cure.

I ended up switching to pure calmag without the added N, since most of my girls got N tox with all the nutes stacked
Ive used FF on a few grows. Overall, i think its a great beginner nute company. Using these with RO water was not ideal. PPMs were hardly ever above 1000, with giving more than the recommended amount.

overall I definitely recognize that I didnt do this strain justice. She got way hungrier than I planned, but still turned out pretty great. Just be prepared to SOG these genes and feed em heavy! I will add more pics once she cures. Smoke report above! Still no more pics. I will be getting some high def pics up soon.

The one you prefer as the winners are not selected because of the strain or the breeder. You can win with a bagseed if your diary is a killer. I’be made top 10 with my own strain ( I mean my own cross )

Today I noticed this girl started to excrete a sap-like substance from her buds. A few of the sap orbs were clear, with one dark amber. Has anyone seen this before? Should i be worried? Should i chop her since she is mostly milky or let her sap herself up?... Thanks!

What your describing is called Guttation, and what your seeing is a sap exudate.... At night, transpiration usually does not occur because most plants have their stomata closed. When there is a high soil moisture level, water will enter plant roots, because the water potential of the roots is lower than in the soil solution. The water will accumulate in the plant, creating a slight root pressure. The root pressure forces some water to exude (most oftenly) through special leaf tips or edge structures, hydathodes, forming drops. Root pressure provides the impetus for this flow, rather than transpirational ascent. This sap exudate can be clear, tan, brown or even blood red(The red colour is due to haematin compounds and anthocyanin pigments that naturally build up in some varieties; The red colour may also indicate a nutrient deficiency, notably of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, or magnesium) This sap usually contains a variety of organic and inorganic compounds, mainly sugars, and mineral nutrients, and potassium. Upon drying, a white crust remains on the tissue surface. Guttated sap exudates most commonly exude from cannabis, along both sides of the leaf axil, where the petioles attach to the stem. Though Guttations typically exude(in most plants) through modified leaf stomata known as hydathodes, in cannabis guttations most commonly exude at the leaf axil, or another part of the stem via a stoma ..... It's no worry really. Happy growing! 👊

@JuicyBuds__BLM, thanks for this...she just started flowering today and can't wait to watch and smell her grow. I'll grab some terpinator tomorrow.

@buzzlightyear_UK, I highly highly highly recommend terpinator and/or purpinator for extra terp roduction. This girl is very very loud. Her trichomes are starting to really get crowded. Like sharp gas with a fruity overtone. Yummy

Got some nice knuckles on her lol they definitely love the LST, looks great bro I'll be following ✊🏾

@EyeMKing, honestly, LST and defoliation will at least double your yield. Ive always enjoyed it too. Thank you!

Thank you guys for the answers lol I was just doing some foreshadowing with how great this girl is going to turn out. She is getting very big, very fast!!
