Very interesting observation. I must admit, I’ve never heard of smoking the stamens/dust. I wanna try it now.

IF the male plant is quality breeding, it will have SOME discernible flavor, hit smoother as it smokes and feel a buzz to it. IF it’s not, it will be harsh burnt leaves all the way, no flavor can be made out and/or weak buzz. B2 had NO pine/menthol so that said to me it’s NOT the Xmas traits.

It really is like taking a college class all the things you learn that you here.

Right, but it also has to do with the heightened senses 
Someone without the heightened senses may not be able to discern aspects of the smoke testing for flavors beneath the ‘burnt leaf’

Week 12
Day 1 flowering 4-17-23
They’ve been boosted w early bloomer to start. You can see how dense the foliage has become from compact growth. Needs defoliation in the center after the first week. Starting height is 20-22”
Any tester who’s between 2-3rd week of flowering please report if sex has remained stable. I seriously doubt there will be reversals but I just can’t say it’s certain until I hear from each of you as confirmation that sex has stayed true past that 3rd week.
@Greenfingers @HumblePie420 mail goes out today. Pollen is good to go. I put it in the freezer to see if it would clump up after being collected. Nope, all dry flowing powder 
Left to right A2, B3 and B4

Yup, and that’s why I said to let the plants adjust to that up potting before flip. These never adjusted, so now I have to use moisture meter to know when to water because of the perma-droop. Picking up the pot or using the slight wilt doesn’t work like normal.

Thanks for that I was gonna follow your example. Glad I stayed and you shot down.. I topped a couple about 5 days ago so they are starting to grow separate tops up potting these babies should shoot up in about a week I hope.

Doing well @Greenfingers I see the Xmas coming through. It’s funny how this BX is turning sativa dom from its Indica parentage. Slight spindly stems but relatively manageable height.
So I just rolled up B1, and this one does have menthol and smoked smooth to the end, so definitely has terps. I had a feeling it was the better plant of the 2. Developed nice tops near the end too. My intuition was right, this is why I say a particular plant has potential as it grows from seed.

Now I’ve heard of nugs on petioles but not the stem leaf !?! Only one plant portrays the characteristics

Yes I have heard of nugs that grow between the petiole and node, but definitely a wild mutation to be on the petiole. It’s from Xmas for sure. There could be something unique so 1 to watch.
