| My second run with DPs Blueberry. I got feminised since when I bought I only had room for a couple of plants and needed females. Both Grows the plant was a female with no hermaphroditic tendancies.
Vegged this plant under 125w until it was around 6 inches tall before putting it into flower. It did at first show slow growth and slightly twisted leaves, but grew out of this after the third set of leaves.
Flowering went by with very few problems, ferted with blood/bone/fish meal. It fattened up really well in the final 2 weeks and was cut down at 9 weeks, judged by microscope for mostly cloudy trichomes.
Odor during flower is quite strong especially if you brush the plant with your fingers.
Despite hearing horror stories of it being hard for new grower, if found it remarkably undemanding. Simply don't go overkill on the nutes and it will be fine (should be noted that I'm growing in a cool climate during winter time, so I can't speak for how it will do with higher temps).
A very pleasent grow, yield was between 0.5 and 0.75 ounces leaning to the 0.5, but with more vegging time and improvements to my room an ounce per plant should be easily possible.
The Smoke
Smell - After a 3 week cure it has a wonderful fruity smell that is almost like blueberries, but not quite, maybe not quite as soft a smell of blueberries, but beautiful in its own right. Hard to resist opening up and sticking your nose in the jar whilst curing. When put in a herb grinder the smell fills the room, bound to make you very popular with other smokers, but the smell is strong so beware around those who don't approve.
Taste - An excellent mixture of that usual cannabis taste and zingy berry taste, makes you want to smoke more than you can take and leaves a wonderful after taste.
High - I would say the description of 80% indica 20% sativa would be about right as it is predominantly a body high but with some head also to keep it interesting. Strong body numbing buzz, increased heart beat for the 1st half hour and a strong urge to sit down, however it also uplifts the mood, makes you very calm and I guess the best way to describe it is that your conciousness is in a floaty cloud. Lasts for a good 2 hours if you don't fall asleep. Maybe not the strongest out there, but way stronger than any commercial I've had.
Overall, great to grow and smoke. Im now vegging some of DJ Shorts version, so I will soon find out how they compare.
