Love love love this strain :D Easy to grow, handled topping with no problems, put up with harsh conditions several times throughout the grow, and yielded over 5.5oz of beautiful dense frosty buds. She would be great for resin products, keeps gunking up my grinder and gave a good chunk of scissor hash :D Definite stinker of a strain - the carbon filter struggled and I only had two plants in the tent this run. Double bagger. The structure on this pheno was amazing, real sativa style of growth. After topping barely any training required, mainly just some defol. Taste after a two week cure is fruity and spicy, bit of a berry taste in there too. Definite indica effects - sleepy hungry happy kinda strain with some nice pain relief properties for medical use. Didn't get much purple coming through, unsure if that's a pheno thing, or more likely due to the heat since the stems were purple, and I did get some bud colouration in the last week when the temps dropped. Be cool to run her again in winter and see what happens! Good bag appeal on this one either way since the nugs are frosty little rocks of goodness. Grown in a 1.2 x 1.2 x 2m tent 11L Fabric Pot Medium: Nutrifield Coco/Perlite blend 600W HPS light Topped on day 15 at the 4th node Dry yield 158gms

What a hectic grow! Despite all the drama she came through amazing, and she sure as hell put up with a lot. Poor girl was locked in the car 8 times for open houses, dealt with heatwaves and stupidly high humidity and all sorts, but never really had any issues. Some drooping leaves midway through, bit of N excess, but all issues sorted quickly and easily. First plant of the last 6 that had 0 mould issues. Really really impressive genetics. Buds were really dense, so was actually quite an easy trim. Knocked out the whole plant with Mr Tonks in just over 4 hours. Nice and sticky. Dried over 5 days after trimming then into the jars for the cure. Had a bit of a sample yesterday, seems like a really nice 'up' high! Will update the smoke report once I've had a proper go at the cured buds. The Numbers: 11L Fabric Pot Coco/Perlite 70/30 Blend (Nutrifield) Harvested 76 days from sprout 99gm final dry weight UPDATE: Smoke Report So she hasn't finished curing but the taste and smell is developing really nicely in the jars. Spicy, fruity, and sweet at the same time. Already quite smooth! Great 'up' high, energetic and euphoric. Fabulous wake n bake strain!! Good bag appeal too, the nugs were all good size with nice frost levels, and have a strong pleasant odour. :D Will be growing again!

So this was an interesting grow! She vegged a lot longer than expected so the grow time was a bit longer, chopped around day 90. I ended up losing about a third of her to mould - I wouldn't say that's a reflection on the plant really cause most people don't stick them in hot humid cars for hours during late flowering. Was a little heartbreaking but glad I got some good bud out of her. :) The extra veg time made it easier to train so she stayed nice and short with big chunky colas, would have been a pretty great yield if all the buds made it! She's been curing about 3 weeks now and the smell is really sweet! Definite grape flavour when smoking, and the nugs are fairly dense. For me this smoke is all in the head - the high creeps in (although quite quickly) with a smooth up high, quite euphoric. Still gives you the energy to carry on with the day, but also great for kickin back watching Noel be ridiculous on Great British Bake Off. Then wanting to eat everything in the house. I'll definitely be growing this one again, but hopefully without the surprise of having the house on the market so she can stay in her tent and be treated like a proper lady ;)

I think I neglected this girl a bit when she needed the most attention - when I was starting her training I took a chunk out of my finger with the scissors and had to refrain from fiddly stuff for a while. Still numb 8 weeks later, mebbe shoulda gone to the doctor. Meh. Anyway, due to my terrible training couldn't get the best out of this girl, but it's easy to see that's entirely user error, she loaded on the frost early and grew beautifully. Smells amazing too! Waiting on a cure for the smoke report. :)

This chicky was a breeze to grow - didn't do any training on her cept some defol, she just grew in a nice open Christmas tree shape naturally. Chopped on day 74. She was in an 11L fabric pot (coco/perlite) the whole grow, and 600W MH the first few weeks, 600W HPS the rest of the time. Would like to see how the yield would have increased with some training, so will definitely grow again. And maybe not in the middle of summer, see if that helps bring out the autumn colours more in the fade. On the whole she was lovely, enjoyed the orange and pink fading. Nugs are hard and solid, and the smell is reeeeeeally strong, very chem. Interested to see how she goes after a cure, so I'll update the smoke report in a week or two, I jarred her up about 4 days ago. :D SMOKE REPORT: In a word: Dangerous. Experience starts when you open the jar and recieve chemical burns to the retina. No joke this smell scares people. Really interesting chem taste but with a sweetness on the way out, there's a definite tickle to the lungs but not harsh. The high sets pretty quick with a strong initial headband feeling that settles into a deep relaxing cloudiness. I get a fair bit of couch lock from her but it's more mental than physical heaviness. After about 30 mins it's all smiley chill time, great for a Netflix binge or relaxing after a particularly shitty day. Will have grow this one again cause dealing with customers at work means there are lots of those days! Definitely one to be careful with though - she will knock you the hell down if you aren't seated when she kicks in. 😊 UPDATE #2: Fun story, a mate's Dad whose a seasoned smoker was bitching about how all the weed going around is godawful and weak and doesn't affect him at all. Gave him some Chem and he went dead silent for a few hours. Not gonna lie, I was pretty smug πŸ˜‚

So wow. This girl was so easy, pleasure to grow. She put on the frost early and just filled the tent with the most amazing smell, it really is like tropical sun cream. She wasn't too fussy with the nutes, only difficult part of the grow was trying to support the big heavy buds dragging down the spindly sativa branches. But if I had have staked them earlier and gotten rid of more side branches that would have been heaps easier, so it's mostly user error. :) Chopped her on day 72 (she was ready earlier but had to wait for my day off). Really happy with the yield too! Which is good cause part of me didn't want to give any of this to friends cause it's amazing, but I also want to share the awesomeness so now I can do both! I'll update this smoke report after a cure, but it already blows mine and Mr Tonks' minds. Strong giggly, euphoric high, then a real heavy relaxation falls so I kinda slump in my chair with a big stupid grin. It's epic, definitely will grow again. πŸ˜€

πŸ˜ƒThis was definitely the surprise of the grow. She started out slowly, and I thought after I snapped her stem as a baby she'd struggle to make it to harvest. But then she just exploded with growth late in the flowering stretch and became the biggest in the tent. I lost the three largest colas to mould, not unexpected with the stupidly wet summer we've been having. Still pulled by far my largest yield so can't complain! They weren't really sparkly with triches so I wasn't expecting much from the smoke, but she was sticky as hell to trim, and the 2 week cured stuff I sampled last night seemed great! I'll update the smoke report another day though - had spent all day drinking cider and trimming, while smoking random combinations like AK47 with a bit of White LSD on top. So not exactly a clean palette. πŸ˜ƒ UPDATE: So this strain is pretty killer! Great for bedtime. Got a nice caramel taste on the exhale, very relaxing, decent strength too. All round great seeds.

My first girl over 200gm πŸ˜† She's only been curing a week so far, so I'll update this report if the flavour changes significantly. I get a nice happy head buzz, then a chill relaxed feeling with a bit of body stone. Keeps me perky! Not super strong, but that could be cause the White LSD I've been smoking this week makes me lose time. The lemon taste isn't super strong, but it takes the edge off the gassy OG taste really well! My bf thinks it's the tastiest we've grown yet.

A pleasure to grow, start to finish. Started putting on the frost early and just built from there. A little finicky with nutes in the flowering stage but nothing dramatic. Harvested her over days 70 - 72. She dried over 5 days - humidity was around 85% so I hung the buds in a cupboard with the door open, and pointed the de-humidifier at the cupboard door. So it had indirect air-flow, and the cupboard was around 60% RH. Not perfect but seemed to work! Curing currently with Boveda 62%. I'll update the smoke report when I'm not taking codeine for a broken ankle, and once the cure is done. So far I'm impressed! Uplifting head stone then a knockout sedative hit. UPDATE: Smoke Report So she's been curing a bit now and holy crap, I lost about 3 hours last night. Forgot I had water boiling for dinner and then the water was all gone. :P Strong cerebral high, uplfting but forget about doing anything important. Really happy with this strain, sends me on a journey and has a really interesting citrus flavour. πŸ˜† UPDATE #2: I made a batch of cannabutter from the trim and baked some brownies. Holy crapballs. I had a small brownie and was munted for hours. Reminded me of the space cakes I had last Amsterdam trip, except this time I didn't pass out on a pub table at 3 in the afternoon. Another thumbs up for the LSD!
