Super Orange Haze

Dry pull tastes good, smooth and tasty smoke. Cant wait for sure, after trim little to no hay smell. 60% @ 21c deg aberage 7 days before trim and jar.

This strain was incredibly resilient to my stupidity. 😅 She also finishes out strong. The citrus smell that comes off her in the last 2 weeks is intoxicating. Definitely recommend giving her a run.

Grew very compact and low down. Don’t tie down next time

Another great strain from Mephisto. Plenty of that orange citrus tang, very nice to smell and smoke, lots of flavour. Not a huge yield, and the buds are a little on the airy side, could have benefited from more room to stretch and LST. Harvested 2 plants, one was stunted at transplant and chopped a week before her sister. Was hoping for an ounce dry off the little stunted plant, but after drying she weighed in at just 21 grams. The bigger plant yielded 64 grams dry, so not huge but still a very tasty smoke. Buzz is energetic and it's good stuff for smoking in the daytime.

Harvested her on day 78 as the trichs were already about 30% amber. Didn't give off any fade however so I think I could've let her go another week. She gave me around 240g wet trimmed of fat buds which is a bit weird for a supposed sativa dominant. Should end up with about 60g of buds. She smells very sweet and a bit like citronella so far so I'm curious to see what she tastes like. Placed the buds in the dryer for about 72 hours so I'll give a first update around then. Update 1: jarred the buds after 70 hours in the dryer. Ended up with about 53.8g of nice fat dried buds. The initial smoke was a weird one after 24 hours of curing but about a week later and the taste has changed completely. It's now more of a slight citrus sherbert taste to it. The high is a nice long lasting head high that will allow you to move around but be nicely toasted on the inside. I'll give a further update once cured a bit more.

Just harvested, so more to come on the strain itself once I get a chance to smoke her. This was my first grow, so take it with a grain of salt. She had root rot early on, and she got it early than the CDLC that was sharing a reservoir with her. She healed more slowly, and throughout the grow her roots were more stained and smaller than her CDLC partner. She would wilt at times with water and temp changes while the CDLC didn't notice a thing. As a beginner, I can't say for sure ... but either she's a bit finicky, or the CLDC is a super stable champ. One way or the other, she sustained through a long list of mistakes I made: 1. Didn't top her. 2. Accidentally broke off her main cola several weeks into flower 3. Let her get into the lights ... like ... within 6 inches. Enough to burn the tip of her main cola. 4. I trimmed flowering nodes late into the flower (trying to cut future larf). 5. Used shitty plant ties that dug into her branches She never showed any male flowers, she never stopped thriving, and at the end of the day she produced 850g wet weight. Despite my best efforts, she just never slowed down. I hope to get my hands on these genetics again so that I can grow her right and see what I can truly get with even a little bit skill! She smelled lovely throughout her flower. Trimming her was addictive, as the juice left my hands smelling like skittles for hours. Later in her flower, she became more pungent ... maybe a little cheesy? Her trichome progression was confusing for me, but maybe it was the stress and distance from the lights? At no point could I say that all were cloudy, but there were large patches of the plants where that was true. The ambering was similarly patchy. Where they showed up, they spread. _rapidly_ in week 11. I want a nice energetic smoke, so I was attempting to get as few ambers as possible. Growers beware ... her ambers are clear and you have about 2 weeks once they start showing up on the sugars. The 850g wet haul completely overloaded my standard size Herbsnow dryer. I had to remove one tray so I could fit the 4 fat colas, and stuff the other 3 layers to the max and was left with enough to carpet about 4 sq feet of cardboard box. Damn! I can't wait for the dry and cure, and I'll surely be back to update these notes! ***UPDATE 1*** Dried weight overall ended up at ~170g of which I kept 68g for smoking. The other 100g, I soaked in alcohol and then distilled down to about 1 ounce of dark brown nasty decarbed "tincture." I use those quotes because this first attempt was pretty bad, but it works. I dried the nugs in a MyHerbsNow dryer, and I'm not sure if I like it or not. They dried way too quickly... around 3 days to be crispy on the outside. I allowed them to puff back out just sitting in an open jar, and I've been doing the curing thing ever since (about 1.5wks curing, 2 weeks since harvest). Taste test still isn't on the table, as the smoke is too harsh. I'll update again in maybe 2-4 weeks once it's truly smokable.

* Good comments: easy to grow, most dense buds i ever grew, super tasty uand frosty aswell, i bud weighs 5gram so it really cant any more dense than this * bad comments: didnt expect to still yield so low with the 4 extra cobs, not sure what went wrong or maybe its just the strain, very small plant, better luck next time
