Itās a tough one to place right? Thereās 2 different smells I get, so depending on your pheno could be different. To me, 1 pheno has more of a mint/pine and lemon smell. The other has āthat HG4 smellā, which is really difficult to pinpointā¦ maybe a little lemon/pine but more bubblegum? maybe necco wafers? Hard to describe.

I donāt know if the power of suggestion works but that helps. Thanks for your description! Iāll try to go smell both again first. Theyāre at the back of my cage and often smelled last. Definitely two distinct phenos. The fastest keeps rt up with the fastest in my garden.

So funny, mine had that citrusy smell at first, now itās still pure black pepper. So weird.

Hi @lefthandseeds. whatās the HG4 again? too tired and baked to bring it to the forefront of the brain.
These guys all have me hungry to grow these gems! Man, I wish I had an unlimited electricity bill waiver for life, but, instead, Iāll dream in between grows. peace

I think black pepper usually indicates beta caryophyllene. Iāve smelled black pepper in some strains before, but havenāt smelled it in jungle spice. The buds on mine are still pretty young though.
One thing though is if youāre growing outdoors, a couple hot days during flower might change things too. Not all of the terpenes have the same boiling temperature, so some might evaporate faster in hot sun.

Itās an unnamed jungle spice cross I made a year or two ago. (Bodhi Acapulco gold x tenderheart) x jungle spice. Me, @8k_feet and another one of my friends have been digging it quite a bit. It has very sativa expressions, euphoric high and a funky distinctive smellā¦ apparently all from the jungle spice side.

Mine is coming along really nicely. Her buds are dense and like one solid bud coming from the entire branch. Like 2 foot spears. Iāll have to get another pic soon. Sheās dank af. Definitely an exciting plant.

This was my thought too that Meesh is getting full sun with good soil that has been properly amended. Definitely should expect an altered terpene profile from the rest of us indoors.

Still waiting for my JS seeds to arrive.

All good - I know it is potentially a different terpene expression from the outdoor grow, but Iām always intrigued to hear that the black pepper smell is in there.
Iāll be watching to see how this finishes up!

Update Flower Day 29
Males are dunzooooo. Male JS#4 was a very productive male, also resinous. Very happy with itā¦ itās going to be my pick for this run.
Several phenos in the femalesā¦ the pollinated branches are definitely prego. Early last week, I forgot to attach the feed line on one and it got some magnesium deficiency. Seems to be recovering fine though.
A few have large internodesā¦ probably leaning toward the Congolese. I have a few shorter ones that are very resinous. All 7 fems are going to be grown out, and Iāll pick from the best. Hoping the shorter ones smoke as well as the taller ones. I like the structure on those much better.

My Jungle Spice has mutated smells again and now still smells strongly and succinctly of black pepper, and a strong grapefruit. Usually, I have a bit of a hard time placing smells, except this plant, her odors are very distinctive. I am chomping at the bit to try her. Been tempted to get a premature sample, but she has no small branches I can trim off, just giant spears of really fat pringle can size buds.
