Spitfire's perpetual nightmare(fka SourD hole)

@middleman GTTC rip 64 days :+1:. It’s smelling pretty good, mostly notice the ecsd still and definitely has some kind of sweet “cherry” candy smell in the back. Though it reminds of a past grow, rotten fruit breath, but much closer to my lane and the ecsd traits with the said cherry ish smell are intriguing. Have a tester stem I cut 4 days ago I just popped in front of dehumidifier to accelerate drying. Here’s a bad pic of it hanging.

These 2 Sowahs have gotten fat after I thought they were stunted. Smells still basically same ish to previous Shawn Kempz I ran. The left one has started to get louder, as @SkunkHunt101 said one was stankier than the other. I’m starting to like how the profile is maturing and I can smell some things in to get excited for :star_struck:.

Fingers crossed, but it sounds like it might be pretty good.

I keep the Sowahh (and all my plants but esp sours) roots not so wet I notice less cannibalization of the leaves when I just use a 3 gallon hand pump sprayer daily. The plant looks much healthier and happier not so wet. Not sure if that’s what i see here but the cannibalization is in all sours and crosses I grow. I drench the roots only when the pot is really really super dry and the leaves start to droop a bit. Until then I use the sprayer to keep the plant going and then drench. Something about the wet roots my plants look much happier when they are no soaked all the time. Just an observation. Yes the number 3 Sowahh is the better of the 2 . Your Shoreline Sour is doing well and looks almost exactly like the sowahh in many ways. Throws the single leaves for awhile then a long central leave with small side leaves. MY TGTB RIL GG4 x Sowahh x My sowahh males has produced one of the best plants I ever grew I have one small clone now going but soon more . i Plan some seeds with the Black Triangle soon and another run of the BT X Sowahh but use the reverse and use the BT male this time on the sowahh and sour. Also BT x 95 SIlver Haze should be epic dank seeds ahead for all.

ya I wasn’t sure what was up. these are in 2 gallons and get pretty dry and most likely is what you’re saying. This was the last grow in anything under 3.

Smoking some GTTC tonight, an S1 by @middleman. Jarred this up like a week ago or something now I can’t remember. the fresh boring smell is going away and the terps are starting to come alive. I Jarred it a few days before I should have so I’ve been burping and dealing with flat smells until the last few days. The buzz isn’t racy like I initially thought. pretty strong to be honest. Hits me behind the eyes and vibrating brain feeling with some body. Fairly smooth, some bite. never get much taste from many buds and this was no exception. interim decision is this pheno was good, but I must try another. Won’t finalize before another month cure.

It took me 30 minutes and many edits and drafts to make this post and smoke 3 bongs of the bud. maybe next time I won’t draft and just let the insanity flow as I smoke.

half assed trim. I’m the only one smoking it so I’m fine picking a few sugars when I smoke.

Cool. Thanks for the report.

It’s still way early and the buzz is there even with a shorter than advised flower. so it’s def a win in my book. Terps are still waking up from dry so it’s only getting better!

so thinking about it(and being sober🤮), last night I never really described the terps that I’m getting so far from the GTTC @middleman . I 100% get ECSD terps, I would say more reminiscent of the Sowahs I’m growing and Shawn Kempz than the shoreline ECSD. Makes me wonder if ours is a less common pheno and the sowahs and GTTC are the real target. I’m pulling some sort of berry fruit / cherry chapstick and I would say an old dry carcass and skunk in the back. reminds me a lot of what the Top Dawg sour pheno should have been and didn’t become. I get a very respectable sour diesel smell when I break it up, with that sweet berry cherry stuff. Def adds some variety to my selection. As said before I like it but I think I wanna try some more phenos, I think I want more of the Kush side to really give me more spread and keep me from so heavily comparing to others.

I’m gonna agree with you that i think the shoreline is more of an outlier. It definitely is a nice mix though.

Chillin outside on my long weekend back home-home in the Appalachian mtns. Happy to be outta the 90 degree weather and 60s all day here, what a nice day to be outside stoned on some GTTC. Def feeling the Kush indica side. Breaking it up is a treat as it reminds me of 50/50 ECSD and a floral berryish terps that remind me of a c99 x mom gooey we ran a few years back. really skunky smelling from a distance. Trich coverage is pretty good. I’m reviewing this like 14 times but it’s pregressing so well. Was a great stone after driving 6 hours and watching The Popes Exorcist.

Karma Sowahs are on day 73. Stinky. Wish I would have had the Shoreline ECSD going with them. Really close terps now on this one Sowah pheno. :scream:. @SkunkHunt101

this one has pink hue and smells best so far. Couple of the mains got chunky.

this one has more fuel burnt rubber hints compared to the other, though very similar.

This giant for me Bodhi Silver Mountain is why I couldn’t run the GTTC longer.

So my @shoreline ECSD was getting too big for the space it is allowed in the flower tent due to the Bodhi Silver Mountain’s girth. Had to bring down one of the sowahs. she made 75 days. some low smalls I kept were tipping all over the place. had about 50% cloudy to clear with some ambers here and there so I’m happy.

Damn man that stuff looks :fire: Are there any seeds available to trade. I’ve been skimming the rest of your thread. Nice growing skills you have! You have some real gems you’ve grown. What’s the stinkiest, dankest Sour you’ve had to date?

Thank you. As far as seeds go I have only bought once, from a random Instagram message from a grower. 70 seeds of different crosses of a Runtz x Pure Michigan male.
The rest of my collection so far is that of a couple seed runs and the most recent vet giveaway.
Best part about the rambling is I don’t have in my possession that I can think of stoned, any straight sour or ECSD seeds. The Shoreline ECSD bx1 is still my favorite terp profile yet. can’t remember much of 20 years ago diesel to compare. The 2 Karma Sowahs here were cuts as is the Shoreline.

I hear ya on the memory part… I have some
Klingon Kandy going now from Awkid Genetics and they strait stink on the stem rub! It seems most of their crosses are sours/chems. I’d love to find a rank one but haven’t yet. I want the stuff that stinks up the whole house when you crack the bag open.

I hope it continues for you! I grew one of those Instagram grower crosses with Gary Payton and it turned out just like these Sowahs kinda are trending

Bodhi Silver Mountain taking up much of my 2x4. Worked on the training early to get her nice n flat. there’s some method to the madness. promise.

Bodhi Silver Mountain @SkunkHunt101 is on day 16. Smelling terps from the lower sites I ripped off last night. Super excited as it’s reminding me of the Tokyo @Heavenlygoo ran and loved the terps. Day 16 getting the smells already is awesome. hope it ends up just like this or even more matured. It’s the same auto shop grease and hints of citrus and a warm pee jug smell lololol.

Karma Sowah Pheno that I preferred the smell of is still going and on the 80th day of flower. Trichs still have a darker hue and pistils are less orange than the one I cut already. Smells much like Shoreline ECSD we run and I love with some other notes in there. Gonna be anxious to get this one smokeable! Still lots of clear trichs. so it’s gonna stay until ECSD takes it’s space.

I cut down the 2nd sowah pheno, day 84. She’s a stinky one so far, got some pine notes when I cut.
