šŸ‘‰The GoodšŸ˜‹ Miss Monk has been a hell of a fun girl to grow, she has grown big fat colas with big fat buds. She if very pungent in smell with a very papaya tone to her while growing. Now that she is dried and 1 month cured I can tell you she still has retained that tropical papaya smell to her with some backup notes for sweet and fruity. Vaping her I find the taste to be on the Earthy and Pine side with just the lightest hint of a little skunk. Itā€™s very pleasant and nice, but the fruity sweet tones werenā€™t there in the vape and thatā€™s ok. Some of the other fruity and sweet weed out there get tiring and overbearing after a couple days. Having an earthy pine taste to her makes her a bit more ā€œclassicā€ and itā€™s a taste that is nice long term day in and day out. Her effects have changed a lot in the last month. Smoking her right after she dried vs a month into cure is 2 very different experiences. Right after we she finished drying, she was peaky in the high, very energetic, and was very hard to sleep on. Now that we are a month in the cure she has mellowed out a lot. The high is more blunt, last longer, and very smooth. She still a sativa and sheā€™s not going to couch lock you, but she makes you want to do more creative or interactive activates like reading a book, drawing, playing an instrument, or video games. Now that she is cured I can also sleep on her, she wonā€™t really put you to sleep but she will let you and will give you nice creative dreams. Barneyā€™s Farm lists her as an 80% Sativa, and Iā€™m not use if itā€™s just my pheno but I would have rated her more along the 60% Sativa scale. She is still talkative, engaging, and interactive, but itā€™s more like a nice coffee house high with your friends, or itā€™d be awesome to smoke during a night of billiards. šŸ‘‰The BadšŸ˜Ÿ I had some excess heat issues in the grow room, and my Funny Monk really didnā€™t like the excess heat. Now keep in mind this is 28-30C at the hottest points, the excess heat was just that, excess, it wasnā€™t extreme. Miss Monk had tacoā€™ing leaves fairly badly, she also produced ~5 bananas across the entire plant that I found. I marked the colaā€™s that I found bananaā€™s on and kept them separate for me to smoke first. I can tell you that I have yet to find a seed and that makes me very happy. šŸ‘‰Harvest In NumbersšŸ™ 450w LED above her (From the wall) 7.53 sq.ft (0.7 sq.m) 2,137 g (75.38 oz) Wet Total 452.5 g (15.96 oz) Dry Total 21.2% Net dry weight 23 weeks growing 1 week drying = 24 weeks total 452.5 g / 24 weeks = 18.85 g / week (0.67 oz /week) 452.5 g / 47 branches = 9.63 g / branch (0.34 oz / branch) 452.5 g / 450 watts = 1.01 g / watt 452.5 g / 0.7 sq.m = 646.4 g / sq.m Miss Laughing Buddha was in her own ~2ā€™x4ā€™ measuring it out itā€™s a little under that so I used 0.7 sq.m or 15.1 sq.ft as the actual size. I used a max of 450w during flower, but with the heat issues I was having (due to the 30 C outside temps) she only had 450w for about ~2 weeks of flower. The rest of the time the LED light power was below 450w and Iā€™d say the majority of the time she only got around ~300w of power. However Iā€™m going to use the 450w for the calculation as that is the peak that she received. Barneyā€™s Farm quotes her as 600 g/sq.m and she outperformed that with 646.4 g/sq.m showing that their estimate is well within reason. She produced 1 g/watt and I consider that a very conservative estimate since most of the time she was down around the 300w range. If I did the numbers with 300w sheā€™d be up in the 1.5 g/watt area, I think the truth for this girl is somewhere between those two numbers. 21.2% net dry is prefect for this girl, itā€™s right in the sweet spot that I usually see. A very impressive (especially with the long flower time of her at 73 days) of 18.85 g/week growing. šŸ‘‰Final ThoughtsšŸ‘ˆ I think one of the reasons why my girl has come out more on the ā€œrelaxingā€ end and not as much on the ā€œenergeticā€ side is because of her ripeness when harvesting. She ripened more then I think I was supposed to let her. She had tons of amber through her trichomes, just riddle with them, and I think that is why she more on the relaxing end. Not sure shy she ambered in so fast and dense, but I donā€™t regret it one bit. I have lots of energetic sativas and I really like her mellow side to her, itā€™s still happy, active, and engaging but her mellow side makes her great for an engaging in evening with friends. A very very nice sativa that has the relaxing effects that I love after a long week of work. Iā€™m giving her a 9/10, I think she is near perfect but Iā€™m deducting 1 point for the sensitivity to the heat that she showed. I would definitely recommend anyone to give her a grow, she is very easy to grow and will make you feel like a superstar with the yields and quality that she produces. Iā€™ll be growing her again in the future and Iā€™ll be growing her during the winter so I can control the temps more easily. Not sure if Iā€™ll send her to a lab for testing or not. Iā€™ll update with the results if I send her to the lab.

This is written about a month after harvest ~1 week of drying and ~3 weeks of cure time. šŸ‘‰The GoodšŸ˜€ My Bikini Girl did well, she produced me some beautiful plump and juicy buds. These things are the most gorgeous colaā€™s Iā€™ve ever seen (IMO). Iā€™ve only grown 10 different strains so far but this girl has the densest trichome patter Iā€™ve ever seen on my digital microscope. She also handled the excess heat in the room just fine, didnā€™t show any heat stress signs and didnā€™t banana on me. The Painkiller also handled the heat well, but my Northern Lights and Laughing Buddha didnā€™t fair so well. She has a earthy and piney smell to her, there is a slight hint of skunk to her but itā€™s very mild. The smoke has a mild mixture of pine and mint with a hint of skunk. None of the tones are very loud and Iā€™d honestly describe the smoke as ā€œclassic weedā€. Itā€™s a very nice smoke but itā€™s not any of these fancy flavors floating around. Itā€™s a nice smooth classic weed smoke that isnā€™t dominated by any flavor, smell, or tone. The high is very active, my brain feels alive and creative. I feel happy and itā€™s really nice to hit right before I head into my grow room to be a big prune. Itā€™s a little more on the creative or involved, like a good video game or cleaning the car, something that is a little more task/decision oriented. I donā€™t feel like doing a repetitive task like a lot of other sativaā€™s Iā€™ve tried, I feel like I want a more involved task. The high is also clear, I donā€™t feel like Iā€™m in a heavy fog, maybe a light fog that keeps me more focused on the task at hand, but still able to think well. It also has a bit of a body uplifting high to her as well, I feel lighter and relaxed. Bomb Seeds describes the high as "Powerful and Euphoric" after smoking I can definitely get there and can agree with that assessment. To me it feels a little more on the creative/inspiring side, but "euphoric" can also be a good description of it. šŸ‘‰The BadšŸ˜³ My poor bikini girl split her main T and her 2 secondary Tā€™s, this did stunt her a bit but she pulled through and did very well. She is a bit more of a ā€œcompactā€ girl with tight node spacing and is very strong. She is a strong Sativa and as such is not recommended for sleeping in any way. She keeps my mind going and I can not sleep on her, so use her as a daytime high and switch to a another strain in the evening when you want some sleep. šŸ‘‰Harvest In NumbersšŸ™ She produce 200w LED above her 3.78 sq.ft (0.35 sq.m) 1,116 g (39.37 oz) Wet Total 189 g (6.67 oz) Dry Total 16.9% Net dry weight 20 weeks growing 1 week drying = 21 weeks total 189 g / 21 weeks = 9 g / week (0.317 oz /week) 189 g / 33 branches = 5.7 g / branch (0.20 oz / branch) 189 g / 200 watts = 0.945 g / watt 189 g / 0.35 sq.m = 540 g / sq.m First Iā€™d like to say that Iā€™m treating the Atomic Bomb as if it used up 25% of the 4x4 tent space, the realistic truth is that this is probably assigning too much space to it. She should probably be around 20% maybe even less. Bomb Seeds claims the Atomic Bomb produces 450-550 g/m.sq so 540 g/m.sq is right in line and on the high end of their quoted yield. Bomb seeds is on the up and up with their yields quotes, if anything they are a little conservative. If I used the 20% of the tent space then it would be 0.28 m.sq and the result would be 675 g / m.sq and that is an amazing grams per m.sq and easily the most Iā€™ve ever gotten. The 9g / week is on the low end for what Iā€™m use to seeing for yields, but considering the splits she had to recover from itā€™s understandable. I think that itā€™s fair to say that it stunted the girl at least 2 weeks, that would put it at 19 weeks and 9.95 g/week and ~10 g/week is more in line what I see from sativas I grow. 0.945 g / watt is a good yield for me, and like I said above itā€™s an over estimation of wattage and area used, so realistically this girl probably yielded over 1g/watt. Drying I really feel I let her over dry by 18-24 hours, I should have jarred her up the day before but I was feeling her and it felt a bit borderline. So I let her go another day, and of course it was a week day, and I couldnā€™t get to her until after work making it an extra 24 hours, this turned out to be a bit too much. Looking back on it I should have increased the humidity in the room from 50% to the 60-65% humidity and then that would have slowed down the drying a bit more. In the end it was 16.9% net dry yield from the wet trim and this is the lowest net yield Iā€™ve ever had. I think itā€™s dryer then 62% and the 62% Boveda humidity packs will probably plump it up a bit more and I might actually gain a bit more weight in the jars. šŸ‘‰Final ThoughtsšŸ‘ˆ Iā€™m really like her, the smoke is very different from the other sativas Iā€™ve grown. I like that itā€™s more mentally and creatively stimulating with the slight body high is also very nice edition. Next time I go for a nice hike Iā€™m going to pack this in the vaporizer, itā€™d be a awesome smoke to enjoy the great outdoors with. I wish I had more of her because she has such a nice creative side to her, Iā€™ll definitely be growing her again. Iā€™m giving her 9/10 because of the splitting at the Tā€™s. But other than that she has been a fantastic girl to grow and to smoke. Iā€™d recommend anyone who likes a nice sativa to give this one a grow, I canā€™t see how anyone can be disappointed in a sativa like this. Iā€™m pondering sending her in for lab testing, but at only 6.67 oz of but Iā€™m not sure I really want to drop $150 into testing. I'll update this post with the results if I send it in for testing.
