Best strain from Blimburn so far, one phenotype stretched a lot, but it was the one with best buds. Buds on other plants were quite small. Otherwise I have to say Blimburn is damn reseller, they don't have their own breeding, just buying cheap seeds and resell them. If you grow from seeds, every seed is different pheno, no stabilization. I don't recommend Blimburn to anybody.

Very small buds. Outcome is tragic. Big disappointment. It hardly can be the "cultivar with character" as seed bank claims. After curing the tayste is sweet orangey, effect is quite on sativa side, uplifting, trippy, cerebral, not so strong.

Buds are small with lot of popcorn. Smells fantastic like cats urine and wet dog hair mixed with citrus. Effect is very strong. Typical hybrid. Suitable for all day, doesn't make you a mental in social interaction, doesn't lock you in couch but if you want it gives you nice comfortable sleepiness.

Didn't get any rot problem or fungus, so as far as I can see, it works well

Critical Daddy Purple

Well, in terms of growing it was big disappointment. Plants were quite sensitive to light burn and final yield is very low, absolutely not in line with what we can expect from critical offspring. In vegetation stage, plant is growing nicely, but in bloom stage bud forming is very poor. Ripening stage sucks. Buds are super small, although they are quite dense. Trichomes production is sufficient, buds are nicely covered, so it is well suited for extraction. I would expect more purple colour in bloom as well, in my opinion appearence of all plants was more into Critical. Blimurn seeds are saying the flower time is 50 days, but I can't confirm. I needed 65 days to get majority of trichomes cloudy. The smell in bloom was citric and gassy, very pleasant, although it was not super intense. I don't know guys, I'm not aware of any severe growing faults I made, but of course, it's possible, and my poor result is caused by improper growing. I don't want to be mean or unjust. After drying and curing 1 month, I can't desribe the effects properly. I think it's too early to examine full taste and effect profile. Smell is citric and earthy with gassy-skunky touch. Effect so far is kind of proper hybrid. It hits you hard with energetic trippy stage, keeps you elevated a while and then land you comfortly to the bed :) P.S.- One interesting thing you can see on Blimburn web pages. If you check promo pictures and videos to their strains, in this case Critical Daddy as well, you can see these plants are immature and very poor. I don't know guys, if this is good marketing strategy. After experience with Critical Daddy it seems you can only have such a bad results. I don't want to be mean or unfair with you Blimburn, I'll give your strains one more chance. Maybe I really mess it up with something and those poor results are just my bad growing skills.

Well, my tent is second hand and it's visible the light shines trough in some critical places. If I would buy a new one, I would go for Ambient model

Seems like they've chosen for selection quite hazey pheno, their Jack Herer should flower 11-12 weeks, which is true sativa stuff Nutrition: Metrop line some shampoos This version of Jack Herer from Trikoma Seeds is very much into sativa pheno. Flowering stage took 13 weeks, which is absolute standard for oldschool haze strains. So in result we have typical haze strain with proper charasteristics. In my grow, 3 seeds were more on the sativa side with long characterisic colas and long flowers, 1 seed was more compact, with dense shorter buds and this flower was ready 10 days before the rest. Aroma of this strain was very citric during most of the grow, but in last weeks of flowering it went little bit to sweet side wit undertones of mango. After drying and curing, smell is more sweet than citric, with undertone of skunky animal smell. Yummy :) Effect is very cerebral, uplifting in beginning, keeping your brain fresh and clear, but in some hour it turns in very relaxed stage, and when you're tired little bit, you may feel sleepy. It is definitely mood amplifier. I have noticed some weird emotional gusts - I was emotionally touched and cried when watching stupid child movies like The Cars or Legend of Vaiana and others- which I'm not doing normally :))) So maybe it moves some chakras little bit. What is most important, when you have a good mate with you, you can catch the laughing seizure and giggle for hours like back in the 90s. Generally it's nice haze strain, very similar to Mango Haze or Super Silver Haze. I would expect shorter flowering time - 13 weeks is too much for Jack Herer! I would expect more compact and dense buds as well. This is original infor about strain from seed bank: Esta variedad es de las más productivas que tenemos a pesar de ser una sativa. Se caracteriza por tener las propiedades comunes de las variedades Haze, como es un efecto psicoactivo y floraciones más largas. En cuanto al sabor, tiene un ligero toque a lima y un aroma a incienso. Es una variedad que alcanza un gran tamaño y altura y desarrolla tallos gruesos y alargados. Seed bank idicated the flowering time 77-85 days, what was not true (we needed 90 days). They indicated the potential harvest as 550g/m , which was surpassed in my case. (640g/m) So everything about the strain, taste, effect was already said above. I just only add the information, that I was trying to catch the seed bank to ask them about how they've selected the strain, if it's the original one from Sensi with just selected the sativa pheno, or their own breeding or whatever. But I haven't received any answer. Due to that reason I don't recommend the seed bank. Sorry guys, customer service is crucial! Righ now some grow info.

If you want to buy this NFT, double check the quality of plastic parts. During the grow I've decided to run a test with defoliation. Left part of tent was defoliated (I should say lightly defoliated, it was not hard core) and the right side was left with leaves. The result is.... I can't say absolutely anything :) Really guys, every plant is different and I can't compare them, because they come from seeds. This experiment would be valid, if we try this on identic clones. In my case, the biggest plant was on the right side, it means with leaves, but the truth is, the grow was affected by various disasters, so I guess that in best scenario, I could easily grow 200 g on each plant. But one result we have. I think we have proven, that defoliation doesnt affect the final crop in negative way. Next time I'll defoliate the plants fully - it's good way how to prevent mold in final stage of flowering. My another fault was that I gave them too much of nutes in last stage of flowering. I will remember fro next time, that sativa decrease the need of nute just after the growing spurt in early stage of flowering. Then some decreasing of nute amount is needed, otherwise you stress your plant too much in phase she should have the power for thickening of buds. We have touched the issue of lights! Look guys I told you, these super efficient HQL panels are future of growing. I've made 1,58 g/Watt, but I'm newbe and I'm pretty sure that next time I'm capable to reach 1,8-2 g/Watt, provided I'll avoid faults and mistakes.
