| One pack of feminised seeds was purchased in March-2004. They were put into 2-gallon pots in EB Organic Potting Soil. So far, I have grown out two of them at separate instances, germination rate of 2 out of 3 seeds in paper towel. The first one was more Indica looking and yielded slightly more (34g) than the second one (29g), which I have pictures of here. Due to the restrictions of my grow space, both were tied down at about 10" and the branches were tied out for better lighting exposure.
Flowering was induced when branches averaged 6" long, and the main stem was about 18". On the first, I waited until about 22", and it grew slightly taller than I wanted for my grow space. However, this second time around it didn't stretch nearly as much and finished with a main stem of only about 27-28". Flowers appeared just about a week after 12/12. Both flowered similarly, starting with very round shaped ball tops that eventually elongate to spears. The first plant finished rather well by day 60. However, the second plant seemed to fill in a lot more slowly. Even when I harvested at day 63, it looked like more spear/white hair clusters were exploding. Fed sparingly, about every 2 weeks, with mild chemical fertilizers until last week of flowering. They only like mild ferts. Overall, yield was okay, about what I expected.
Dried hanging for 6 days, and then put into mason jars to cure.
The final product: The nugs have an excellent appearance; with a dark green base and very brilliantly colored brown-red hairs. After 2-week cure, the smell is stabilized. Overall, it has a dark fruity smell, with a musky pungency to it. There is also a slight menthol overtone, which is a delightful touch. The taste is not as fruity as it smells, but leans more towards the muskiness. Very silky smoke, it barely even makes me cough. Even the second and thirds rip taste pretty good! It is not the astounding Kush knockout stone I expected... it takes a second to come on, but is very strong and full bodied. Every part of me feels pretty high after two bong rips. The intensity of the effect is about average for connoisseur class weed, with a very physical (but not overwhelming) characteristic to it. Got to love the smell and flavour though! Recommended as a personal stash grow.
Although it is supposed to be Hindu Kush x Hindu Kush, which is 100% Indica, the flowering traits seemed to be somewhat sativa like, minus the super-stretch.
