DESCRIPTION FROM THE BREEDER
=================================================
www.ch9femaleseeds.com
We used Motarebel "Lemon Thai" and crossed it to a "Toxic Blue" hybrid from Motarebel again. Dominant traits will be towards the Lemon thai, and her famous diesel aroma. This hybrid will be ready around the 5th January 2012.
Description by Motarebel: Lemon thai was originally offered to the public by Dutch Flowers, they claim it's a Hawaiian indica/sativa mix. These are F3's using an indica dom female with a sativa dom male. You will get a range of phenos to pick your keeper. A fast grower and and easy cloner. It is by far the best Dutch Flowers offering i have run, excellents tone with a good harvest of sweet lemon smoke

THE SMOKE TEST
==================================================
Address these questions while smoking.
1. Please use a clean instrument for the evaluation. Enter information belowthat will identify the instrument as follows:
Water pipe (enter bong, hooka, bubbler etc) [ ]
Vaporizer (enter the brand name) [ ]
Pipe (size-type, ie medium-glass) [X ] – home made applewood pipe
Joint (enter brand of papers) [ ]
Other (specify):
2. Use numbers 1-9 on descriptors that apply to the taste where a one indicatesa subtle presence and a nine indicates a very pronounced presence.
Delete the existing space when marking a descriptor in order to maintain thecolumns in alignment.
Ammonia [ ] Earthy [ ] Licorice [ ] Peach [ ] Berry [ ] Floral [2]
Mango [ ] Pepper [ ] Blueberry [ ] Fruit [ ] Meat [ ] Petroleum [ ] Bubblegum [] Grape [ ] Melon [ ] Pine [6]
Cedar [ ] Grapefruit [ ] Menthol [6] Pineapple [ ] Cherry [ ] Grass/Hay [ ]Mint [7] Rotten [ ] Chocolate [ ] Hash [ ] Mold [ ] Skunk [ ] Citrus [3]Iron/Rust [ ]
Musk [ ] Spice [ ] Coconut [ ] Leather [ ] Nutmeg [ ] Strawberry [ ] Coffee [ ]Lemon [ ] Orange [ ] Vanilla [ ]
If appropriate return to this question after 5-10 minutes and mark
with X any unmarked descriptors for lingering aftertaste.

4. State of dryness [ ] Rate the dryness of the bud from 1-10 wet-dry where 5is ideal.
[6.5] – the hygrometer was reading around 70% when left in the jar overnight. Still smokable,but a little on the damp side

[8.5] – very very smooth without any coughing.
6. Smoke expansion [ ] Rate how the smoke expands in the lungs from 1-10stable-explodes.

SMOKE TEST COMMENTS:
==================================================
FOLLOW UP QUESTIONS
==================================================
Address final questions immediately after effects have worn off.
1. Dosage [ ] Enter the number of hits taken to reach desired effects.
Three decent hits from a small pipe.
2. Effect onset [ ] Rate how quickly the effect hit from 1-10 immediate-majorcreeper.
[5] – Fairly immediate head rush effect that seems to grow over the next 30 minutes until you feel it all over your body.
3. Sativa influence [ ] Rate the sativa influence detected from 0-10none-extreme. Sativa influence is best described as a clear and energetic mental effect.
[4] - I would have to say there is some sativa influence. You definitely don’t get couchlocked, but you don’t feel like cleaning the house either. Instead, you can get lost in your thoughts and every so often come to and realize an eternity has passed by in 5 minutes. Kinda like navel gazing weed to some extent. On the otherhand, there is enough sativa influence that you can remain sociable if you want to be.
4. Indica influence [ ] Rate the indica influence detected from 0-10none-extreme. Indica influence is best described as a sedative, lethargic ornumbing effect that affects the body.
[6] – in about 20-30 minutes, you get a nice relaxing body stone – no couch lock though.
5. Potency [ ] Rate the potency of the sample from 0-10 none-devastating.
A good solid 7. I have shared this with a couple of friends – both of whom are heavy smokers. Their assessment was that Blue Lemon Thai had a very respectable potency and they were suitably impressed. One mentioned it was better than what they had been buying as of late.
6. Duration [ ] Indicate the number of hours the effects lasted.
A solid 3 hours of decent high.
7. Tolerance build up [ ] Rate how quickly tolerance builds from 0-10none-rapid. Leave this field blank if you have not used this sample repeatedly.
Unknown
8. Usability [ ] Rate on a scale of 1-9 where a one indicates the worst time ofday to consume this strain and a nine represents the ideal time of day.
Leave field(s) blank if you have not yet formed an opinion.
Morning - wake up [2] Day - work [4] Evening - relax [9 ] Night - sleep [7]
9. Overall satisfaction [ ] Rate your overall satisfaction from 1-10 poor-HolyGrail.
A good solid 8 in my opinion.
10.Ability and conditions [ ] Rate your overall ability to judge from 1-10low-high. Consider experience, strain familiarity, atmosphere, currenttolerance and most importantly the condition and preparation of the sample.
[9] – I have had several samplings of this strain and have shared with two others that are more “experienced” than I am and we all have pretty much the same conclusions
11.Judging from the sample alone do you personally consider this strain akeeper for long term use. Yes [X] No [ ]
==================================================
GENERAL COMMENTS
==================================================
This strain was an Attitude freebeefrom last spring’s order. I popped theseed in April and vegged it under T5’s until the weather here in Maine clearedup towards the end of May. I was growing it against some Barney’s Farm Liberty Haze & Violator Kush as well as some other freebees. The Blue Lemon Thai was one of the more vigorous growers out of the bunch. The plant was topped at the second true node (a la Uncle Ben’stechnique) at some point as well.
In late May, the plant was moved outside to a guerrilla site which had been prepped with Miracle Grow Moisture Control soil mixed with native soil. During the grow, it didn’t seem to have any real nutrient issues (oversensitivity or needs), but did suffer from some bacterial leaf spot problems later in its life. I had no scheduled feeding regiment. Instead, when the plant looked hungry, I gave it a reduced dose of Miracle Grow (sorry purists, but it worked just fine) and occasionally some lime and epsom salt.
Budding started somewhere around the beginning of August. During budding, the smell changed from nothing to a really strong funky cheese smelland finally settling into a noticeable lemon fragrance as it ripened. With the topping, there were five strong colas at the top with a decent density of secondary buds below.
Harvest – cut each stalk at its base and hanged them to dry whole in the loft of a barn. During curing, the weather around here was pretty wet and humid so it took about 10-14 days for them to dry (with a fan) to the point where the buds could be trimmed. Once trimmed, buds were put in glass jars with hygrometers and burped as needed. Not much mold encountered considering how crappy the weather has been.
Production – I haven’t weighed it all yet, but based on my best guess, this one plant generated a solid 7-8ounces dry.
