Breeder's Description - 'Malibu'

A great ScrOG selection; the high is clear but intense, and a very nice citrus aroma to boot! These bushy plants that are great for training, but do very well left on their own. The flowers have a great medicinal value, and did we mention that taste?

This plant does NOT like too low pH. You are going to have to keep it faithfully in the 6.5 - 7 range. Given that, I don't think it's any harder to grow than most other strains. Not much odor till late in flowering, then i had a week or 10 days of a strong musky/spicy odor. That faded to very little through the end. The high is very heady and energetic. This stuff doesn't put me on the couch. It is, however a strong buzz. The first few bowls actually had me forgetting what I was about to do. Once mastered, it's a great buzz. I took these plants just as they were starting to show the turn to amber trichs, at 9 and almost 10 weeks. I believe I rushed 12/12 a week or two though as they took 3 weeks to really flower up. They only had 6 weeks of veg. Chimera says this strain is 'californian x Dom'.. ask him.. :D
I didn't do this grow well due to pH problems for most of it, thus I got a poor yield. I'm growing the remaining 6 next and expect to do much better. Dolomite Lime is your friend.
The plants showed P/K deficiency through the last half of flowering, despite my applying a double dose of the BigBloom. I'm not happy with the BigBloom and don't recommend it.
