Things have quieted down a little- rainy day tomorrow so I should get some pics. Most of the seeds I soaked on the 11th have been planted and broken ground, waiting on a few stragglers to crack ( Milky Way, Dutch Treat, Pandoras Box, Qleaner, Spider Goo, 3D x AO).
I had a little Flav pollen so I hit the Critcal+ with some. Also hit it w/ some Jillybean and AO. I have a Jack the Ripper male and a Lavender x Vortex male under 12/12 for more craziness to come.
Smoke Report- CARAMELO from Delicious Seeds
This may be the best strain I've grown; it has it all. Flavor, aroma, bag appeal, strong stone- don't wake and bake if you have any plans, Bucko. The scissors hash tasted exactly like Pine-Sol with a Lavender undertone, but it loses the bite when the buds are dried. The nugs are quite dense and very sticky and aromatic, covered with trichs and turn purple, deep color in cold weather. The flavor is delicious, like Lavender oil- kind of thick and sweet and stays in your mouth. (But it does give you dry-mouth!)
Opening the jar is a floral aroma with no weed smell, just sweet lavender potpourri. The stone is a little heavier than I expected from a sativa based plant, quite strong all around. Could be knock-out if you let it with a strong body stone that lasts a long time, and a mind buzz where you keep saying to yourself "Jesus, I'm really stoned."
This pic is from June 3, just before I took some nugs to dry. I ended up chopping it all the other day, but it was definitely ready.
Delicious- I just took a hit, can't stop cuz it tastes so good. It levels off at a high plateau after smoking a lot, but it doesn't let you down. Again, I can't say enough good things about this one. Caramelo (Lavender x Indica), Delicious Seeds. 8 wks. and it's done.
