I got the Milky Way seed as a freebie with an order, so I decided to use it for this test grow. I wanted to try growing organically, in a larger volume pot with minimal run-off, inspired by living soil growers.
At the beginning, I felt quite overwhelmed by all the different products on the market and the various growing methods. But in the end, I’m really glad I went down this path. It forced me to rethink some of my old assumptions and study growing in more depth, understanding nutrients, microorganisms, and so on. You need to trust your inputs!
Whether I actually learned something… we’ll see in the next grow :)
....................................................................................................................................................................................GROW :
Milky Way surprised me from the start with its strong, vigorous, and quite even growth. I let her grow naturally without any LST. It developed beautiful, round, dense buds covered in large trichomes.
Honestly, I could just copy the promo text from RQS - it fits perfectly. Good job guys! :)
....................................................................................................................................................................................SMELL:
The smell of Milky Way is quite unique for me. I’ve never had anything quite like it.
When you open the jar, you’re immediately hit with an intense hazelnut aroma. After grinding, it shifts into a floral profile with a fresh, slightly fruity note - but a different kind of fruitiness than what I’m used to.
....................................................................................................................................................................................TASTE:
When vaporized, the flavour is dominated by a fresh floral taste combined with green apple and a subtle nutty undertone. The aroma isn’t overly loud the vapor is smooth, almost creamy, and doesn’t irritate the throat even during longer sessions. No off-flavours or unwanted aromas - even at higher temperatures, or when it gets a bit roasty, it still tastes fine.
................................................................................................................................................................................EFFECTS:
The effect is calming. At first, it’s barely noticeable in the body and tends to stimulate creativity. After some time, it transitions into a more physical relaxation. Long-lasting or better said, slowly releasing. It works well as a daytime smoke without any strong negative effects. At higher doses, it becomes fairly sedative.
.......................................................................................................................................................................................EDIT:
After 3 months of smoking this strain, I can say it's not worth growing again for me. 5 stars for nice buds and good grow. It's probably the only weed I could bring to the office, roll one, and nobody would notice. Terps faded fast. Now the aroma is mostly floral, the joint is almost tasteless. Through a ball vape, I can still get some pleasant flavour, but I usually mix it with other strains.
