Strain
I start by thanking FastBuds for sponsoring this and other diaries, I love these genetics !!!...
The eighth week of flowering. After 10 days of flushing, the leaves have completely withered, leaving only the beautiful hard and full flowers visible. Harvesting, the plant gives off a strong sweet lemon smell with a hint of cream, which ties in perfectly with FastBuds' given name, Lemon Pie. For this plant, I adopted the "Canamatoes Style" (mainlining), which I really liked very much. Very easy and very fast to clean, and very fast in flowering. I am one who takes a lot of time, trying to squeeze the plant up to the last trichome, I could have harvested a week in advance. I was not sure of the final result of this plant; I started cutting in the third week of vegetation when the buds on the third internode were smaller than a grain of rice, however, she proved incredibly strong and vigorous. She also underwent a transplant in the process, but that didn't stop her from producing 235 grams of wet weed, under an 85watt lamp. The flowers are very compact and hard to the touch, the scent is delicious, I just have to let it dry and finally try it. Updates later 🤘🦄
Update 22/5: I uploaded the video with the final weight, the flowers are dry, 62% humidity, I let them cure at least a week before the smoke report, yeah 🤘🤘🦄
Last update: after a month of tanning, here we are. Amazing! I had tried it last month but I didn't particularly like it due to too much freshness. But now it's something else entirely! the lemon smell is more decisive but not intrusive, the earthy note is almost imperceptible, everything is accompanied by a sweet scent, which overall recalls the limoncello of Italian Sicily. It will be for this memory that I am unable to associate it with a lemon cake. the fact remains that the name fits perfectly. The flowers have been kept at 62% humidity and appear full-bodied and hard enough to crumble once again if broken by hand. In the grinder it shatters well, not creating annoying dots to open with your fingers while rolling.
Summary and final personal considerations:
Growth 10/10: Extremely strong, compact, recommended for less experienced growers, just feed her properly and she won't let you down. Excellent resistance to cuts and handling. Grown in Mainlining from the third week, she showed no problems during growth and flowering. Low and squat (normal in mainlining), easy to maintain.
Buds 8/10: Full-bodied and satisfying, hard to the touch, but not overly large when taken individually. Light green color with whitish shades and "Naruto" orange pistils. Not the most productive as THC, but I trust the next seeds will be heavier.
Odor 9/10: The real smell is released after at least 2 weeks of tanning. Until then it always remains a bit sour. After a month (now) the scent remotely reminds me (as mentioned above) of the Sicilian limoncello, sweet and fragrant like the peel of fresh lemon, with a light earthy note, not annoying. Really good!
Smoke report:
Long smoking brown paper, smoking filter in white cardboard, no tobacco.
At the first puff of smoke, the earthy note becomes stronger and less felt on the nose, but is immediately covered by an aftertaste of lemon. Sure the combustion spoils some of the flavors, but overall it is very good, tasty, a full smoke almost chews in the mouth. The hint of sweetness is barely perceived above the palate. I need a vaporizer, I am sure that without combustion everything feels much better. The earthy notes are not my favorite, but I give this part a nice 9/10
Effect 8.8 / 10: I'm already hungry, surely after half a lemon pie, half a jar of ice cream it won't hurt me XD I feel creative enough to reconstruct in photos the eight steps that are needed to reach my current state thanks to lemon pie. .. or maybe it was just 6 steps .... 1. grind the weed 2. put it on a map 3. search for a filter 5. take another paper 6. make a filter 7. put more weed on the map 8. make a filter 9. grind weed 10. make a filter 11. pat the cat 12. check notifications 13. think "hey, there would be a nice joint now" 15. make a filter 16. grind weed 17. take a map, but you realize that there are already two out of the package 18 put filter and weed in map 13. close map 15. make a filter because you were overthinking and you always need a spare filter 16. look for the lighter ..... .. keep it going 🦄🦄🦄🦄
