Nug shots! Woo!
Peach Hashplant keeper
Peach terpenes on the front followed by a sour, then notes of Hashplant pepper and possibly some citrus developing over time. The peach smell is best before cure. It seems to be transitioning from sweet peach to sour peach during cure.
She has very rigid trichomes which leads me to believe that she doesn’t permeate terpenes much. The sour peach smell is there upon opening the jar, but is extremely “in your face” when grinding the bud. Seems like you have to break her down to really get the full terpene profile

Seems to be a Hashplant leaner in structure, terpenes, and TK brings the resin? I say resin? Because I’m not sure if the Hashplant dad or breeding moms bring resin. Usually the most frosty phenos are mom leaning in structure and terps, where the hashy smelling phenos are chunkier and have less leaf resin. This has led me to believe that moms seem to bring the resin in Hashplant crosses. But I’m not seeing much TK in this girl. There is maybe a smooth OG front end on it and some earthiness? it has to cure more.
I trimmed this girl before I had to go in for a work shift and was told that I smelled like pungent weed. This just doesn’t happen with most modern hybrids.
The high on this point pheno was TK/G13HP balanced IMO. More energetic/focus/calming “get stuff done” high in the first 45 min followed by a smooth transition to relaxation and bedtime. Perfect after work strain to get daily stuff done and enjoy your night. No couch lock, just relaxing.
I finished testing the other 4 phenos and I wasn’t very thrilled. Two were very earthy and TK structure dominant. High on those was calming but not exactly interesting. No nuances or special characteristics. The other two were very frosty but horribly low yielders. Those had better OG type terpenes and were more potent.. But the couch lock effects were too much. My selected pheno, in my opinion, brings the yield and structure of the hashplant, plus the high of the TK without serious compromise. Terpenes need to develop in cure

This one is an absolutely beautiful pheno. Pure OG terpenes through and through. The smell up front is oily rag with brake cleaner, with some sour citrus notes behind. Slight earth as with everything Hashplant related.
First smoke test was great, OG type high with a steady relaxed but uplifted effect until bed time. I didn’t seem to detect any increased energy. If you are tired, expect to be more tired with this one. If you are awake and energetic, expect a “cruising down the road on a warm day with the windows down” feeling.
More testing needed on this one but I think it is a solid keeper.
That’s all that is dry enough for cure at this point. More to come in the future.
