the outdoor grow of the acclimatized lebanese seeds went very well. my plants were ready in early october. about 12 females all grown in a 65 gallon pot with plenty of variation in color and terpene profile, but all definitely pure lebanese. Individuals have very different smells, like tart red berries and lime, melon, tangerine and cucumber, and even savory beer and cheddar cheese. They all have a hint of the same smell in the background, a mix of elmer’s glue, cucumber, and lemon skittles. The aroma is unlike any modern hybrids I’ve encountered.
These definitely get much more benefit from a long cure than modern hybrids. The potency is much higher in this generation. I don’t know how to describe the effect, other than that it is nowhere near the indica-sativa spectrum of highs. it’s medicinal, and it gets me blasted. it’s very psychedelic. I could smoke this, and then just laugh at the sky for hours. there’s a crazy sensation when you take the first hit. The onset of the high feels like the sound of a gong in reverse. A deep quiet vibration, building into an intense, turbulent bass, then the faster high pitched vibrations increase in intensity until it reaches the maximum intensity at the moment the mallet hit the gong, and then absolute silence. from that point on, you experience an intense perspective altering high.
Next time I get those jars out I’ll post some bud photos.
