12/12 fr seed vs reg veg cycle BLUEDREAM

Will report back on smoke after a full cure. These were two very distinct phenotypes of blue dream, one had dense buds like I usually see more in Indicas. The other had lighter more airy buds These were also purposely kept us very small plants growing in basically 1 gallon of soil in a 2 gallon container. I wasn’t going for quantity on this one just a comparison between 12/12 and reg veg cycle. Unfortunately because they turned out to distinctly different plants it’s hard to say what was caused by what. That said the regular veg cycle plant turned out gorgeous in color and real nice dense buds Smoke report- I absolutely love this strain. For a long time I considered myself an indica guy.. which is true. But I stayed away from sativas because I can get in my head and paranoid with some strains. I’ve come to the realization that you can’t really just judge strains by their percentage of indica/sativa.. it depends on the person ingesting it - as well as that specific strain. I’ve had 100% indicas make my head race and paranoid/anxious in the way I thought was only supposed to be a sativa trait. Anyhow - point is that this is such a clear headed high and I’m starting to realize there are a lot of strains I’d like to try that fall on the sativa dominant side. This is supposed to be 70/30 sativa dominant. I do like how it isn’t really sedating and keeps me from feeling dumbed down. That is another aspect of some strains I despise is that loss of mental sharpness. That’s not a factor with this bud. Doesn’t give me munchies either which I don’t mind sometimes getting the munchies, but after a day of eating clean and healthy - I hate to ruin it all right before bed by demolishing half the fridge after I smoke a bit. It’s an uplifting and kind of creative high for me, it has a higher ~2% cbd content. As you can see the phenos were so different visually and physically. Interestingly the high was very similar - the blue buds from the reg veg were definitely a bit stronger - probably a few percentage points higher of THC. ————UPDATE———— If I could change rating on many of these ILGM grows I would. While particular phenos were great, there’s wayyyy too much variation. Not to mention about half of my plants from ILGM seed threw bananas/intersex traits appeared. I believe ILGM is subcontracting out breeding to anyone.. so who knows where these seeds are coming from. Just become pretty disillusioned by the seed industry in the past 6-9 months.. it’s a shit load of marketing and little in the way of respectable genetics. Tho I rarely pay for seeds anymore, I will only work with breeders from here on out. Not “seed banks” who label their own lines as theirs but buy wholesale from god knows who. I get there’s a place for all that - but I want the best genetics possible. A company that spends little on marketing and advertising, and almost entirely on their craft of breeding seeds.. weeding out the inferior, running down several generations for stability, etc etc.. let the results speak for themselves. Alright I feel like that was a nice rant. Research what you’re buying folks. If you don’t give much of a shit.. I understand that too.
