No growing issues at all. The yield was MUCH lower than average, although it was lower than average for all 3 plants of different strains in the grow tent, so that wasn't due to genetics. My guess is that it is due to the colder than average temperatures during this grow. However, the yield for this plant was still less than the other two plants I grew in the exact same conditions. The buds at harvest were beautiful. Frosty and covered in trichomes, with good density, and wonderfully sweet aroma. It felt like a disservice when I was trimming away the frosty sugar leaves, although personally I prefer a smoother smoke than slightly higher yield by keeping all the sugar leaves. Will update dry weight in about 4 days after drying, then update measured THC % and smoke report in about a month after curing.

No growing issues at all. The yield was lower than average, although it was lower than average for all 3 plants of different strains in the grow tent, so that wasn't due to genetics. My guess is that it is due to the colder than average temperatures during this grow. The coloring wasn't anything special. The buds at harvest were lighter and fluffier than average, and there was a lot of vegetation to trim away. When I grew Zamnesia Runtz F1 Hybrid during my previous grow, those buds seemed much denser. Also the buds of the other two plants that I grew alongside this were denser, and also frostier with trichomes. Nevertheless, I look forward to smoking it and reporting on flavor and effects since I've never tried this strain before. Will update measured THC % and smoke report in about a month after curing.

No growing issues at all. For some reason, SG tends to be a magnet for my growing equipment to fall on it, so I was surprised the plant survived and thrived so well after a fan fell on it during this grow. The yield was lower than average, although it was lower than average for all 3 plants of different strains in the grow tent, so that wasn't due to genetics. My guess is that it is due to the colder than average temperatures during this grow. I loved the colors that came out during this grow. Also during harvest the buds seemed much denser than average. Because they are pheno hunt seeds, I'm not too surprised that the coloring and density during this grow was very different from the last of this same strain. Will update measured THC % and smoke report in about a month after curing.

It was a very healthy grow, and had no issues. Although the wet weight yield is about 25% lower for this plant than my average, the harvest was very pleasant with frosty, resinous buds that smelled wonderful and had beautiful pink hues. Dry weight is only 9.2g, which is about 30% less than my average, although that may be due to growing later in the year than average (last day of October) and the cooler temperatures. The aroma an taste is wonderful. I don't know what a papaya tastes like, although to me this certainly has a sweet light-colored fruit taste, but not as sour as citrus. More like tropical fruits like apricots or mangos. The effects are like a classic sativa-dominant hybrid. For the first smoke, I wanted to do things around the house, but still got that nice light-headed feel without getting sleepy or couch locked. A great daytime strain. Even though my yield was lower than average, I'll probably grow again earlier in the year and find out if yield improves. The flavor is great, and when I measured the THC it came in at a whopping 28% (see attached test results), the strongest strain that I've ever tested!

When I went to harvest, there were tons of yellow pollen sacs that started to form at the intersection of the stems and buds. Didn't expect that I'd be doing some "castrating" work during harvest as I tried trimming away as many little sacs as possible. Wet harvest weight is lower than my average. Triming shears were covered in pollen by the end of the harvest. Probably won't grow this strain again, as the plant that I grew right next to it in the exact same environmental conditions did not have this issue, and also had higher wet harvest weight. While I harvested this outside of my grow tent, I really hope the pollen doesn't affect the younger plants inside the tent. After curing, measured THC is about 26%! Safe to say that potency won't be an issue with this batch. For smoke report, the taste was wonderful like strawberries and cream. Reminds me of the taste of Runtz. For effects, definitely sativa-dominant, as it had me wanting to be active and do things, not just sit around. At the same time it had be creative thinking about things, and don't know whether coincidental or not but after smoking it I was hungry.

Was a pleasant harvest. Lots of resin. Wet harvest weight is more than my average. Very resilient strain, as it survived dropping a fan on top of it a couple weeks ago! Harvest was a little "powdery" and don't know if that's from some of the pollen from the plant that was next to it that hermed or that it started to slightly herm at the end. During harvest there were only a few tiny green sacs at the intersection of buds and stems, although they were NOT yellow and soft like those on the plant next to it. Measured THC is about 23% which is acceptable potency! For the smoke report, this reminds me exactly of Bruce Banner #3 with a strawberry flavor, and happy, uplifting, and relaxing high. My guess would be similarly slightly sativa dominant.

This was a great grow, no problems at all. Breeder doesn't specify the indica/sativa proportions, although at harvest it was more like an indica. Very frosty buds, all the way down to the small popcorn buds at the bottom. I probably could have stopped harvesting at 40-50 grams, although the small buds near the bottom were so frosty that I had to harvest them too! The plant handled topping during week 3 no problem. It stayed short and had such an even canopy that it didn't even need any training beyond that. It smelled pleasantly sweet while harvesting. Measured THC about 20%. The buds smell like sweet fruit. The first smoke was like caramel or butterscotch (my first thoughts were vanilla or cream), and second smoke was herbal. I estimate it is about 30/70 indica/sativa, since I was able to either relax or do tasks around the house after smoking it, although I estimate a sativa lean since I was more motivated to do things. I could have just sat there and observed, but both times I felt energized to do more.
