Yea that’s my problem also
Sweetness! Finally I don’t have to feel like I’m the only person on the planet growing it. I just put my first one on flowering schedule this week.
So far, no skunk smells. All I’m getting from stem rubs is orange. That doesn’t bode well for my first VX-1000 seed. Ultimately the only thing that matters is the high, of course, but I bought these seeds for the skunk.
Hopefully once she really gets going she’s going to stink up the whole house.
But check out my canopy! (Yesterday)
She’s starting to really put out, but I’m hoping for some of that legendary stretch I haven’t seen yet. But I’m really happy with this canopy!
I thought I took some other pictures, but I guess not.
She looking pretty
I’m still waiting on the loud smell though…
I’m quoting MMS when I say, "The main difference from Chem 91 is that these have even more of a dead skunk smell. It is easily my most traditionally SKUNKY strain I’ve ever had! This is also slightly more “sativa” in its trippiness but is mainly that heavy hitting chemdog experience. Needs a fresh carbon filter, these terpenes are extremely intense!’
And yet there are no smells whatsoever. It’s like they developed this strain that you can grow in your Sunday School class bathroom without detection.
So it’s not what was advertised, and it’s a bit of a disappointment. But am I unhappy? That’s a tough question to answer, because look at her!
There’s a lot to like. She didn’t stretch much at all, so points for predictability. She’s sturdy and easy to train and her buds look like they’ll have great bag appeal. She seems like a good yielder, and her buds are starting to get greasy.
So I guess it’ll come down to what it usually does - is the smoke good?
I do hope the next seed I pop is skunky like they promise though.
Well, damn! She is a really nice looking plant though! Maybe she’ll bring the stank later in flower.
I coitainly hope so!
She is starting to smell, and it’s a very nice smell. Glazed donut. Instead of old-school, I get pussified latte. But that’s probably okay, because…
She’s still got a lot to recommend her. She’s got a great glazed donut smell. She’s oily. Big fat buds that will have great bag appeal and be easy to trim. I’m planning to make seeds from the best phenos in the pack though, and she’s going to have to be really good in other ways to make the cut.
She (the whole tree) was starting to tip over from the weight of the buds. I had smoked some Mega Maid and spent about 45 minutes with a roll of duck tape making her solid. And solid she is.
@rasterman I like donuts! A bit of a stretch from skunk… hey… go with the flow! Perhaps it’ll go even better with morning coffee! She is looking nice and ya can never go wrong with duct tape! I have a few to stand back up tonight myself. My VX is looking good but appears to be hungrier than her playmates so I’m gonna bump the feed up a bit.🪶🪶
Let me know if you get any terps from yours @NDNCHILD. I might not be giving them everything they need.
I’ve just now got her shaped into a nice little one gallon mother. I’ll be taking cuttings to run soon. It may be a minute but I’ll let ya know what I find.
Things are full around here! I’m focusing on running as many through the flower tent as I can to reduce my numbers while shaping up several nice little future mothers I know I at least want to see if I’m keeping around long term. So far I’m learning I need more “small pot” practice. They’re needy little bastages.
I’m going to be growing in smaller pots too this summer, and I’m terrible at it! I’ll get me some one gallon pots. I’ve got some autos running in 1 liter pots and it looks like it’s not really worth the trouble for what I’m getting from each plant.
Today’s day 50 and her buds are getting fat and heavy. She’s having some trouble holding them up. But that’s a good problem!
She’s still not loud, but yesterday I started noticing a tire rubber smell. It’s not really my thing, but it’s not unpleasant and I’ve never grown anything with that smell before.
She’s already covered with beautiful, round, cloudy trichomes and even a few ambers but I’m guessing it’s still going to be a few weeks.
Day 53 and the tire smell has deepened to straight garlic with a back of rubber. Some people will probably like this, but it ain’t my thing so far. It’s not as unpleasant as it sounds but still…
I’m putting her outside for a couple of days to get some nighttime cold. I’ve heard that’s a way to kick off some skunk smell.
I think it’s supposed to get down to 39°F tonight, so that should help.
Nice work @rasterman. Hope you don’t get “turned-off” with MassMedical Strains because of the yields. Have always got massive yields and large plants. Going to run Drippy Eye S1 (fruit juicy thai snow lotus x star pupil) Banana Trump Chem (banana OG x Trump 1000) x chem 91) and last White truffle x star pupil considering a journal Smoke report ?
