All this talk of A1/K, figure I’ll rehash some of the tester findings I put up on RIU from a couple years ago.
I got basically one hamburger smelling one, one chemy smelling, one formaldehyde and antiseptic nasty, and one rental car, carpet shampoo smelling. All kind of turned into a semi-meaty, dry raddish, antiseptic, 3 day old mouthwash and stale love making kind of smell with age.
The formaldehyde one was the weakest in terms of effect, but I’d pay $500 to get that expression again… it was so invasive smelling, it was really great for those who enjoy that kind of thing. A suffocating odor when drying.
The shampoo, rental car one was very strong, and had the wildest buds… some looked like weird, hulked out spiderlilles or something. I took a cut, looked like it wasn’t going to make it, pulled through and flourished for a while, but now it looks like it’s gone for good.

Fucking aphids showed up toward the end, but nothing that couldn’t be easily brushed off.
B very generously sent me a bunch of his A1(2)/Kashmir f2s right after I sent him the report… something that I still need to get to… and said they were in the back of his fridge. That made me realize that he’s probably already tested most of the testers himself, and that he really just does the tester thing to involve growers in the process… which is a very nice thing to do.
