10/08 Awesome! It's done. It's a superb strain, as long as you don't poison it at the start. And not a trace of mold.

15/07 She's growing very well when you have a bit of control over what you're doing. But for the critique; _she's the only one so far that has caught some mold. It might just be bad luck, but it happened. Otherwise, she's sticky, smells good, and looks to have a very decent density. She's good.

The typical Biscotti aromas clearly take center stage, reminiscent of sweet pastries, lightly toasted cookies, and a hint of creamy sweetness. The vanilla doesn't push itself to the forefront but harmoniously rounds off the overall picture, giving the strain a soft, almost dessert-like note. The aroma feels balanced, natural, and immediately invites you to get to know the buds better. Flavor-wise, this impression continues consistently. From the very first puff, the characteristic Biscotti notes dominate with their slightly nutty, sweet-cookie orientation. As you progress, the vanilla shows up more as a gentle companion, adding a creamy softness to the smoke. Especially on the exhale, this pleasant mildness unfolds quite clearly. The smoke remains exceptionally smooth throughout the entire draw and barely scratches the throat even with larger puffs. It's this balanced combination of the sweet Biscotti profile and the subtle vanilla note that makes the strain particularly enjoyable and provides a rounded, long-lasting flavor experience. The effect begins relaxed and even. After a short time, a pleasant mental calm becomes noticeable while the body gradually loosens up. Stress and hustle fade into the background, replaced by a soothing tranquility. At the same time, the effect remains pleasantly controllable and is perfect for winding down at the end of the day. As time goes on, a distinctly body-focused relaxation develops, ideal for chilling, unwinding, and later even for falling asleep. This makes Biscotti Vanilla particularly suitable for the afternoon and evening when there are no major commitments left. The buds also leave a high-quality overall impression. The nuggets have a compact to medium density with well-defined calyxes that lay closely together, forming a harmonious overall structure. Despite the good density, the natural flower shape is preserved, which makes the nuggets not appear overly hard but instead offers a pleasant balance between firmness and airiness. The numerous orange pistils create beautiful contrasts against the light to medium green plant material and highlight the mature appearance. Especially striking is the strong resin production. The surface appears almost completely covered by a dense layer of finely developed trichomes, giving the buds a distinctly frosty impression. Even smaller leaf areas are generously coated with resin, further enhancing the high-quality appearance. Overall, the strain conveys a very well-groomed and resin-rich impression that perfectly matches the creamy aroma and relaxing effect. The yield was in the medium range. Biscotti Vanilla focuses less on maximum mass and more on the quality of the buds. The good resin formation, the exceptionally smooth smoking behavior, and the balanced terpene profile more than compensate for the average yield.

The aroma is intense, distinctive, and unmistakable. Immediately, a strong scent rises to the nose, reminiscent of fresh markers – chemical, slightly sweet, and surprisingly pleasant. Behind this extraordinary note, subtle earthy and slightly gassy nuances hide, adding extra depth to the overall profile. The intense terpene profile ensures that this strain showcases its unique identity even before the first puff. Flavor-wise, this special character continues consistently. Right upon inhalation, the typical marker or felt-tip pen aromas dominate, accompanied by a slightly sweet undertone. During exhalation, increasingly earthy and slightly spicy nuances develop, giving the smoke a pleasant, full-bodied character. Despite the intensity, the smoke remains surprisingly smooth and hardly scratches, allowing the complex terpene profile to unfold excellently. Permanent Marker offers a taste experience that clearly differs from classic fruity or purely gassy strains, which gives it a high recognizability. The effect begins pleasantly evenly and unfolds without rush. After just a few minutes, a mental relaxation sets in, while the body becomes increasingly loose. Thoughts feel calmer, stress fades into the background, and a pleasant serenity spreads. At the same time, the mind remains clear enough to consciously enjoy music, shows, or conversations. As the effect progresses, physical relaxation becomes more pronounced without immediately leading to strong fatigue. This makes Permanent Marker excellent for the afternoon or evening – ideal for unwinding, chilling out, and simply relaxing after a long day. Visually, the buds also leave a high-quality impression. The nuggets have a compact to medium density structure with well-defined calyxes that interlock closely, giving the buds a voluminous appearance. Between the individual flower segments, however, enough structure remains intact, allowing the genetics to preserve their natural character. The numerous orange pistils spread generously across the entire bud, adding vibrant accents to the light green base tone. Particularly striking is the strong resin production. A dense layer of finely developed trichomes covers almost the entire surface, giving it a distinctly frosty appearance. Even smaller leaf areas are generously coated with resin, making the buds appear high-quality and extremely potent. Overall, the strain conveys a very well-cared-for and resin-rich impression, further emphasizing its quality. The yield was in the medium range. While Permanent Marker is not among the absolute heavy hitters, it still delivers a solid amount of high-quality buds. The combination of extraordinary aroma, intense resin production, and relaxing effect makes it a strain where quality clearly takes center stage.

I love this brand... their strains are so interesting, I enjoy watching them grow and how they change each week... I will keep cultivating these qualities that I like so much... it's awesome...
