Okay, sorry I didn’t respond to all of these spaghetti sauce posts haha, just haven’t much felt like talking lately. Maybe it’s this shitty-ass winter weather we’ve been getting here. Or maybe I’m still recovering from the multiple birthday get-togethers we’ve had in the last couple weeks (I guess one advantage of having your birthday on Christmas is that you kind of have several smaller birthday parties over the course of a couple weeks after Christmas; I’m definitely still hurting from the one we had last weekend haha).
Anyway, Diesel Therapy #3 smoke report:
Looks:
Smell: Not much. It’s more of a “sensation” than a smell, like I can feel it in my teeth more than I pick up on anything in my nose, like a minty “fresh breath”-type of thing, followed by a hint of the same “burnt rubber/asphalt” thing going on that the Diesel Therapy #2 has. Definitely doesn’t smell like ECSD or anything close to it. I don’t mind it, but it isn’t anything amazing.
Taste: Smoky. Like the way a Laphroaig or a Macallan or some other decent Scotch tastes smoky. There’s really not much else going on other than that (and believe me, I’ve tried to find something else haha). Pretty disappointing.
Effect: I actually like this one a lot, but it’s a very unpredictable high, which is why it’s taken me so long to write the smoke report for it. I’ve been blazing this one off and on for at least six weeks and I still really can’t get a handle on it at all.
Sometimes, the comeup is so smooth and pleasant as to be virtually nonexistent, to the point where I’ve kind of “forgotten” that I’ve even smoked any weed at all until about fifteen minutes in, at which point I’m very, very pleasantly baked. Other times, I’ve for sure gotten a sort of physical rushy/racy, heart-pounding comeup coupled with a racy head for the first thirty minutes or so.
I’ve smoked it in the afternoon and ended up falling asleep on the couch for three hours an hour after blazing it; smoked it in the afternoon other times and been fine, not sleepy at all. I’ve smoked it before getting ready for bed and stayed awake watching Netflix for two hours; I’ve smoked it before bed and fallen asleep in thirty minutes.
There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason with this one. Like I said, it’s an unpredictable high. When it works the way I want it to, it works reeeallllyyyyy well and I love it haha. But it does get kind of annoying to wonder, like,“Okay, it’s the afternoon. Is this gonna put me to sleep?” or,“Okay, it’s bedtime. Is this gonna keep me awake for three hours? Am I gonna get the super-pleasant comeup or am I gonna get the rushy, racy one?” It’s kind of one of those ones where I can only smoke it if falling asleep in the middle of the day or staying up until 2am doesn’t matter haha.
Pretty weird weed, for sure, but not necessarily “bad” or anything. Like I said, when it works the way I want it to, it’s great haha. And it isn’t necessarily “bad” when it works in a manner that I wasn’t anticipating, but it’d be nice to know exactly how it’s going to affect me every time I blaze it.
Anyway, yeah, Diesel Therapy #3 smoke report. And this concludeth the grow report (finally haha).
I don’t think I’m gonna start a new log for the current grow. I planted like almost 40 seeds over the course of a month between October 1 and November 2. Between the 17 seedlings that burned up from the weird soil mix and the others that just turned out male, I only ended up with six females, which is pretty fucking ridiculous. 0-for-5 on the Zaps, 0-for-5 on the Mountain Temples, 1-for-4 on the Sour Diesel x Dragon Energy, 1-for-5 on the Nikah, 1-for-7 on the Malibu Pure Kush x Lemon Thai, 1-for-8 on the Santa Cruz Pure Haze x A5Thai, and 2-for-5 on the Pura Vida f2’s (so I guess nube is the Best Breeder haha!). I like to have at least two females of at least one of the crosses I’ve planted, just so we can compare and contrast, seems kind of silly to start a new log to document just one plant of each hybrid this round, so I’m just gonna post the pics and results in the appropriate breeder thread when they’re finished.
I will say that the Nikah has developed a totally overwhelming “anise” smell in the last ten days or so (day 26 of “official” flower today, although she started autoflowering a week or so before that, on account of the 14/10 schedule I had her and some of the other plants on for a month) that I was not anticipating at all. Pretty interesting. Stronger anise smell than any Jack I’ve ever blazed, stronger than any of the anise-y NL5 I used to get, too. I really kind of hope it doesn’t maintain that smell haha, just because I don’t really love anise, but I think it’s pretty interesting and unexpected, anyway.
Another reason I don’t feel like starting a full-on new log is that OG’s just kind of getting on my nerves lately, the Bodhi thread specifically. I signed up for discord last week, just because there was a pack that SHOE was auctioning off that I was really interested in (decided not to get it, though) and I only realized after signing up for it that the Bodhi thread’s kind of being treated as if it’s a discord thread or whatever they’re called, with just post after post of meaningless one-sentence things that’re completely clogging it up. Seems like a shitload of dumbasses all of a sudden showed up or something, I don’t really know, but every time I log on to OG recently, there’s like 65 alerts on the Bhodi thread and every single one is,“Oooh, I want that pack!” or,“Oooh, look! These showed up in the mail today!” or whatever. It’s annoying. Just buy the pack, grow the seeds and let us know how they turned out when they’re done. I really don’t give a fuck what packs you want or what packs you just got in the mail. Grow them and let us know.
I’ll still post the results of the Nikah and the two Pura Vida f2’s there once they’re done, though, of course. And I’ll post the Doc D stuff in that thread, too, obviously.
Anywayyyyyy… haha.
