Mmmkay.. 3 weeks from chop, 2 weeks in jars, we grew 5 using different techniques and I dont know if that’s the reason but they smell different.. number 2 gave the best yield, least amount of stress and smells exactly like GSCs should. She’s delicious and dessert like! 1 was second highest yielded, similar level of stress but the smell is not as strong as #2, it’s more like sweet bread than dessert.. and 3/4/5 yielded terribly as expected with their high levels of stress and smells even more mild and like bread. I think it’s because the stressed out buds are leafier making the cure more crucial. I’m very satisfied as I grew for concentrates not smokable flower anyway and these wash well but even with number 2 smelling yummy enough to be smoked, and I do like a flavour change every now and then, I’m not really a cookies girl at heart. I like to smoke hashy weed. So it’s not a fair comparison. But she hits beautifully. And that’s why I keep coming back to cookies strains. They make consistently good medicine which makes for easy dosing. Well rounded, balanced, thorough high with all the relief, comfort and good vibes you need. As for concentrates, she yields great! And that was the intended purpose!! We’ve been hashing and extracting and cooking up delicious test batches of medicine and lovely topicals from the trim/smalls and have sent out the testers to loved ones. They agree, this is good. This was a trial run, we have 5 more seeds planned for the patio this spring and it’s an easy decision to go ahead with the original plan and run these again. Now that we know the strain better we can give her better care and I look forward to pulling more precious oils next time. I’m happy with this pick. She was as advertised, grew as expected and gave me what I wanted. Highly recommend if you like concentrates and you want to grow some very pretty looking and ultra discreet plants, highly recommend not stressing her out much for best results. We’ve jarred up #2 for smoking and started processing the rest of the cured flower.
