I hope so!.. and yeah, the canopy is a little better than I expected from seed. Clones are def an even field if you have the right mothers. I have picked and cloned 10 of of 2 potential mothers of these 3 strains for the next run. It'll look better then.... unless the labs are crap, then we'll scrap these and try again. The last run we did had terrible THC content (different strains), but terps were off the charts.. which I wish more people would understand that its not all about THC. It's only a catalyst for the the terps. It's like having a good looking campfire pile of wood (THC)... and you got one match. IF you can get it lit, and have a good wind (Terps)..You got a good fire.
That last round ..... when I say terrible THC, Im talking about 13%, BUT! the terp profiles were 3.5, 3.7, and 5.1 Most of the Dispensary weed we see only has either less than 1%, or slightly over. I think this is due to harvesting too soon. We may have harvested a bit too late. The window in pretty small if you're trying to get the best of both worlds.
None the less,.... 13% is hard to move in this market of THC minded patients. They really don't have the knowledge to know any better. We've had some 6% THC, 6% terps that would blow your mind compared to our 23% THC, low terp strains.
Paige (Mrs. Bandit, or Frog as
@Flatrate calls her) studies terpene profiles like nobody's business. There is a true science there. We can tell how each terpene affects us. Some are great for pain, inflammation,.. and some are good for sleep, or stress, anxiety. Terpenes are in everything from fruits to nuts. They all have a purpose and use. We just need more studies on how each one interacts with your own bodies chemistry. Sometimes it just takes experimentation.
