After today, I’m pretty sure the wife is going to throw me out in the back yard with the dog. I may have gone overboard on the Sensi Star hybrids…especially the ones with long flowering hazy/piffy/sativa females. I’m convinced there’s gonna be some magic in there.
I also managed to trigger the fraud alert on my debit card when I bought enough bitcoin to cover my purchase. So that was fun.
@minitiger i love seeing your grow and smoke reports on the doc d stuff. some truly comprehensive and enlightening reports. i think it was some of your grows which pushed me to pick up some of doc’s selections.
considering that he’s shutting up shop soon, will you be making seeds from any of his stock? or do you know anyone who has plans to?
Grow Ethiopian banana x nepali watermelon HP they say
It will be fun they say
Expect a god damn monster I SAY! Hahah
Thanks, dude. That’s why I do those logs, just to share info for everybody. Glad you like them.
Hahaha… Uh… No? Probably not. I dunno. Maybe one day, but seed-making’s not in my short-term plans at all. I just like running through seeds and checking shit out and sharing my observations with everybody.
I mean, it seems like a lot of people are. I can’t think of anybody specifically off the top of my head, but they’re definitely around.
Doc D keeps bringing the hits. The Spellcaster sounds like straight fire. Orbital recalibration rations.
I for one would not like to see copies of Doc’s work sold without his blessing . Shared would be cool . I’m thinkin’ who / whom wound up with the Moms might have some treats for us down the road .
Anyone have any info on Dutch flowers Sensi star? All I can find is some pretty vague info on the paradise reproduction and references on here to doc D’s repro when I Google it. I don’t think he’s given out much info on the mailing lists I already went back and checked them out.
In any case, I went with tk x Sensi star and bandaid haze ix3.0 x Sensi star. Hoping the little bit of extra inbreeding on the 3.0 yields more satty dominant plants. Also scooped a Vietnam black x DE that I forgot to get last month
I’d love to get additional info on the sensi Star Doc used. Good choice on Bandaid haze cross. Here’s my order yesterday.
1 x VB x Sensi Star
1 x Bandaid Haze no. 7 x Sensi Star
1 Piff S1 x Sensi Star
1 x A5 Haze x Sensi Star
1 CBH x Sensi Star
1 DE x Nepali Watermelon HP
1 Pure Haze x Nepali Watermelon HP
2 Magic Bluegrass x Nepali Watermelon
1 Black Lime x Nepali Watermelom
1 Mullum/Oaxacan x Nepali Watermelon. Hope everyone’s plants are doing well.
I was on the fence on that A5 x Sensi star. Figured that would be a cool cross to have representing the old Dutch stuff but I’m being cheap this month.
For those wondering, here’s doc on nobody’s cut:
nobody’s BH ix 3.0 cut is a beautiful BH7/A5 pheno, finished in 85-90 days with a rich musky metallic aroma and an extreme rollercoaster ride hightype
Edit: on ig, nobody posted a pic of bandaid haze ix3.0 (assuming this cut but not positive) saying it’s got a floral perfume and leather aroma, smelling like the bottom of grandma’s purse or something like that hahah
Thank you so much for this info. I love info/pics on seeds/strains. I plan on growing. Great info thanks again.
Yeah, I think that’s what highminwin was implying: shared, not sold. Either way, some asshole is gonna make inferior crosses with his seeds and sell them. Nothing you can do about that, really, except not buy those seeds. And don’t follow them on IG haha…
I mean, as far as I know, it’s a pretty stable line. Smokes like a typical “Dutch Indica,” from my experience. Not really a fan of those. I do think that crossing it to some of those more “exotic Sativas” that Doc works with could turn out something special. Just depends on what you’re looking for, I guess.
There’s actually a ton of info out there about Sensi Star, that’s a really old line. Maybe not a lot of info about the specific male that Doc used, but you can read about Sensi Star in general and get a pretty good idea of how the male he used might work in those crosses.
It’s all a journey… haha.
Vietnam Black 164 S1
Yeah… so this one was a weird one, and to be completely up front, I don’t think I grew them that well. I think I explained in an earlier post, but I transplanted them at the wrong time. But whatever, they’re still smokable. But very tedious to trim, at least my two phenos are. In fact, I haven’t even trimmed them yet, they’ve just kinda been hanging out for about a month or so now.
You can see there’s still some wispy buds and trichomes under that mess though.
Looking a little better trimmed up, with the flash on.
No flash
The smell is surprisingly good on both of them. One smells more like orange-y bubblegum, with some black tea in there. The other is more musky meaty smelling, but still has the bright and sharp fruity smell in front. The taste comes through pretty nicely too, just have to make sure to trim them up and not leave too much leaf on them.
I’ve been smoking little bong snaps this morning, and the effects are… interesting. First off, immediately after exhale, my ears started ringing. I don’t normally have tinnitus or anything like that, but something about the drone of the fans running, made me hear this weird ringing that kind of warped in pitch. The ringing didn’t last too long, thankfully, under five minutes. I felt kinda strange after that though. Like I was floating outside of myself a little bit. Like I could visualize myself from above, pacing around in my basement… but it wasn’t like a “visual”, more of a sensation. During that period I also started having nice body sensations, like I was lighter, and floating a bit. My shoulders felt a weight lift from them. My thoughts were little racy at first, but nothing I would consider uncomfortable… but I’m a freak and used to uncomfortable stuff, so maybe for some it would be anxiety inducing.
Another thing I’ve noticed so far, is that there’s not much of a ceiling with this stuff. I’ve smoked a few more snaps, and the effects just seem to come on stronger each time. Very cool. Also, I’ll think for some reason that I’m not high, and then two minutes later be staring off in the distance, or the ringing comes back for a second, or color suddenly look brighter. All that just kind comes in waves. Gently pushing you in being stoned, and guiding you back to reality.
So yeah, the trim is worth the smoke. I’ll probably just rough trim the good buds and jar them up, then manicure them further when I want to smoke. Probably not gonna be an everyday type of smoke for me, because of the unique effects. I think this one would be best to enjoy out in nature, on a secluded beach, or tucked away in a Redwood forest on a sunny day, smoked alone and letting your thoughts roam and reconnect with what’s around you.
But hey, that’s just me… somebody else try some and let me know what you think!
Damn love the report on that vb super sad the lt x vb beans I where going to try got lost in mail abyss for sure going to need to pick up vietblack sometime sounds too interesting not too @iamyou_youareme
Haha! Yeah, I was reading the first couple paragraphs and was like,”Oh, shit… Okay.”
Nice report, though!
Ha ha, sounds like the Zang, it’s similar to Malawi in that it’s going to change your plans. I like it later in the evening for the drunk feeling it gives.
As for the Sensi Star, when the list came out I passed. I think Sensi Star done well is one of those rare hybrids that has something special going on in terms of effect but I wouldn’t grow it on it’s own. I ended up picking up a couple packs today for the same reason you mentioned, to have a shorter, easier version of some of the longer stuff.
Realized SC Pure Haze is the same as Old Mendo Haze, so I’ve popped a few of those crossed to his Nepali Watermelon. I smoked straight Old Mendo Haze with Joel from Norstar at a Cannabis Cup one year and ended up buying all the flower he had left. Absolutely perfect herb. I laid in the grass sparkling, looking up at the clouds and giggling like an idiot. 
Was told the VB 164 is drunken space cowboy weed . Shameless slut that I am I’ve been stocking up . I believe any of the sativa X A5T crosses have some hidden gems .
anybody grab any of the watermelon hashplant repro that doc had in last month’s newsletter? i was saving pennies to grab a pack and missed the boat
I purposely avoided trying to get the watermelon HP repro (and any females that seemed too sativa-leaning crossed with the watermelon HP) since I only grow indoors in a space with a relatively low ceiling…even though I’d love to try them out.
I also successfully avoided placing an order from the May email…can’t say the same about the June email though. Only one more email list to go until the monthly temptation list comes to a close.
I love Doc D
I got to meet him years ago and his energy is great, and that comes through in his breeding
I grew out and bred with Cherry Tiger and Tiger Claw.
They are both based of Charlie Garcia’s Malawi dom cut of Golden Tiger.
Tiger Claw used Congo x Kandahar male. This made for a spicier progeny that smelled of incense, cologne, and woods. My favorite phenotype was very much like BOEL’s The One.
Cherry Tiger used Seeds of Compassion’s Cherry line which is NorCal Goo x Cherry Bomb x MTF x AK47. Super flavorful, intense, strong buzz that is too strong for some, amazing pain relief.
anyone here grow out the raspberry thunder (Goji Razz x DE)? I just placed an order. My first time growing doc d!
