Unfortunately I haven’t seen her. Smells and slow growth are on point to Bodhi’s descriptions though.
I did run across some fermented fruit smells in another F2 individual that was probably from the Ghash side. But this one in particular is all acrid.
Not sure what is bringing out the purple. If I could figure that out, it could help narrow down traits to look for.
The smell described for a1 is why I’m interested in dl5.
Thank you for your updates
Day 54F for the other 7 individuals. 2 of the 8 have developed a bud rot, The flat stem and another.
As we begin to wrap up this hunt, I’m noticing 2 groups.
The taller, branchier individuals with thinner leaflets and a pointier spear shaped bud(left) and the shorter, uglier, mold-prone individuals with a more round/flatter bud shape(right). Almost all have purple buds, all have purple sugar leaves. All have slightly different smells but all within the rotten meat, body odor, dead animal, ammonia, burnt rubber smells.Wow mate that’s sensational work shameon the bud rot on some, did it get serious at all? , your descriptions of the smells are great, if only smells vision was invented! I’d love to smell some of them just out of curiosity! Keep up the great work brother
It got pretty bad on the fasciated #3. Way too dense and I didn’t think to rotate my plants. The other one not so bad just a couple buds on the main stem.
Everything came down at day 62. They didn’t seem to enjoy the light intensity although they were a solid 12” away. I will have to keep that in mind next time I hunt through some more this fall.
At least it wasn’t too bad mate I’m getting worried about light issues like you described, never had issues with the hps apart from heat primarily, yet I see so many now affected by led intensity.
Damn man, not sure how I missed these updates! Notifications have been wonky on Overgrow for this whole year - either not getting them or only getting notifications for the newest posts and not older ones I’ve missed. Oh well, I’m here now!
Anyway, wow those turned out pretty cool! Sorry to hear about the budrot. They look very much like bodhi’s Dank Sinatra, which makes sense - affy x ghash. And yeah, those plants don’t need much food or light - they’re kinda cabbagy. They also aren’t fast growers or big plants, but they do make great smoke. Hope yours are acrid in a good way!
Are these close to dry and ready for sampling? Can’t wait to read some smoke reports.
I’ll have to get pics of mine soon! It’s at like day 30ish flowering. Definitely looks like the rounded buds phenos - resin rub smells like caramelized onions mm. I just set up a fan to give it more airflow after reading about your budrot issues. Out of curiosity - how humid is your flowering area usually?
Acrid In the very best way. Just smoked some #2 this morning. Puppy breath, and roasted coffee/spent grounds. I mean heavy on the puppy breath coffee. Coffee breathe?
Instant pressure behind my eyes. Daydreaming. Couchlock. Introspective. Heavy. Only finished half the joint.
I can’t wait to see what you get.
My space holds 3 tents and a veg space so it gets wonky but here consistently it’s been in the 60% area. Unfortunately I didn’t have the dehumidifier while the DLA 5 s1 were in full flower.
Yup im lookin forward to them too ha! Theyre startin to get really crystally on leaves. Gotcha - Im usually in the 40-50 range so might fare a little better with potential rot.
Everything came down at day 60 to prevent any further molding. 2 individuals were almost completely destroyed and only lowers were salvaged.
Overall I was pleased with the results of this small hunt. Without doing the smoke reports, if I wanted to grow short, slow growing, stinky, dense purple Afghanis, then I would definitely pop these.
Hopefully my clone game will be on point next hunt because I didn’t get a cut of any of these. I would’ve liked one in particular but I’m not upset about it. Plenty of seeds to look through.
Here’s a look at #2 after trim
Smoke reports will be posted as I trim each individual.
Heres mine - day 43 flower. Savory resin rub with caramelized onion smell mm. Its chuggin along, looks very dense. Just starting to have pistols turn.
She looks gorgeous my friend. Great work so far. Onion seems to be a common theme so far but caramelized onion sounds so delicious. Savory is a great way to describe a lot of these individuals. Mine range from gamey, to baked chicken, to steak and onions left on a warm kitchen counter for 3 days🤢
Its a cool plant for sure! Really stands out with its giant leaves and dense structure. Only a few more weeks to go!
#1
Bag Appeal : Who cares?
Growth: one of the taller ones but still Squat with minimal branching. Huge fan leaves that need almost weekly plucking in veg. Slow vegetative growth. Little to no stretch in flower. They all hated intense lighting and prefer the shadows or lower wattage. 8-10 week finishers. Rock hard bud density.
Smell/Taste : Funky onion, incense, sour meat.
She leaves a little chemically/ sour/ incense taste on the pallet. Not too bad but not as intense of a flavor as I would like.
Effects: I’ve already marked this jar as night time meds. Creeper body high that kinda melts your shoulders and sends warmth down my back. But after that it’s a couchlocky sleepiness that leaves me cross eyed if I’m watching TV or playing a video game.
Medicinal? : If you’re scatter brained or have trouble sleeping , this stuff should work. I usually get 5-6 hours of sleep but I’ve noticed this gives me an extra hour or so of comfortable sleep.
Overall: I think outside with plenty of veg time these could be great yielders but only if you’re in a more arid climate which I am not.
#2
Bag appeal : see smoke report for #1
Growth : *See smoke report for #1 *
Smell / Taste : This jar is gnarly. Hot garbage and skunk is what my wife says. I get no skunky notes, but hella hot garbage, onion, deep roasted coffee and puppy breath. Taste is more dryer sheet, baby powder, incense, perfume.
Effects: My Head inflates and it soars straight up to the clouds after half a joint. Eyelids get heavier. The main effect of this individual is forgetfulness. You know, when you go to do something and 3 seconds later you forgot what it was you were going to do. Or forget to dump your dump truck full of soil and start driving down the road with an open tailgate spilling dirt down a main highway
Also have noticed that I get sidetracked really quickly while high on this stuff. I meant to write this report an hour ago but I got lost cyber window shopping and checking IG.
Potency: this stuff is deadly. Not sneaky in anyway. I’ve had trouble staying awake after smoking this. One friend who doesn’t smoke much, said this “That stuff was like an intense body high an made me feel kinda panicked”,
his words
Medicinal: Sure. Smoke some and you’ll forget all about your pain lol
Just kidding but seriously, I feel the same warm shoulder and back sensation from this individual as well.
Overall: Probably the closest to the mom I reversed in all regards. Some different smells like coffee make it different. This one is one to look for in the future hunts.
Oof that one sounds like a winner!
#3
Destroyed due to bud rot. Grew fasciated and had very tightly spaced buds. 5 branches per node. Purple and short, and more of an onion/musty armpits smell.
