...Still trimming... have some winners now mind.
from the ESB MH tent 3 keepers. the 2 big SAT dominant ones and the pissy skunk one. really impressed and happy with all 3.
The led tent, the big ESB hasn't got much going for her tbh, its been in a jar for 10 days and nothing to really write home about. the smaller ESB, really nice smoke, very floral and perfumy blueberry. like a bouquet of flowers. beautiful morning smoke.
The big ChemonadeV2 is lovely, very gassy with almost chocolate smells from the jar, the smaller pheno is everything the big one has but not as much gas... I prefer it.
the bubblegum has been jarrd for 10 days and is now starting to taste like it smells, it's a really nice balanced smoke.
il post some pics and give a proper breakdown after I've finished trimming and it's had chance to cure a bit.
My favorite to smoke so far is the pissy ESB, it was the first I trimmed and jarred and since then the piss has taken a backstep and now it's super dank, reminds me of a proper old cheese without any cheesyness... If you know what I mean?
it's a lovely happy high, nice buzz for a good hr then mellows to a happy stone.

Those 3 are head and shoulders above the rest, the one came out tasting like a crayon... not that I tend to taste crayons... well maybe once or twice... not very appealing though, the other was really nice and skunky but threw nanners and not much of a high, big yeilder and solid colas, I could have harvested 2 weeks before the rest so I put the issues down to that.
Super happy with FDM and the ESB man, thanks again for putting me onto them. The bubblegum, poor show on my part, 1 out of the pack, that one though is a really nice smoke and big yeilder. If I didn't have what I have to run through next, I'd buy another pack.
I'm thinking of running the pissy pheno in a mono 4x4, really like her, super nostalgic but better.

cheers dude, il get some proper pics of it all soon. That pissy ESB has turned to a sour vanilla flavour and smell... tastes as it smells. The apple cider one has turned almost honey suckle in profile, beautiful smoke.
Mad when they completely morph taste and smell in time ain't it

it's mind boggling, makes it hard to let things go then. I knew with Sativas a good cure brings out the best, it's interesting to see and taste the nuances over the weeks.
the Blueberry leaning pheno is a perfect example, first of all it was like a crayon smell, taste, now its morphed into a real nice mellow Blueberry

very peculiar man, sort of waxy crayon, couldn't tell you what colour one though lol. glad it's gone. it's turned out a lovely smoke, really nice mellow chill vibe.
I showed a friend the bubblegum yesterday, he used to have a mother plant from the early 2000's but got busted. He was taken back by the smell and appearance, very nostalgic moment for him.

I love it when you smoke something you ain't had in years and it takes you straight down memory lane you can't beat the classics

It was quite emotional man, you could see the memories coming back to him, good and bad. Needless to say, sorted him out with a snip and a jar.
Yeah man I bet at least he got her back now though bud hopefully the future brings better times with it for him

Aye that's maple leaf indica x lambsbread if I remember right was a good cross
Well that's what I have seen it too be too, I know/think it's a blue cheese couldn't tell you where from, it's very anise tasting, very sweet smelling, has the cheese funk too it but more anise. He flowers it at 8.5 weeks, it's very underdeveloped but still smokes nice, super oliy. I've nagged him to flower it for longer but he won't. he won't use anything other that Canna a and b either. nothing else. It's an old cutting, same plant for yrs, he's got it backed up a few places and I know I'm welcome to it.

Sounds good mate he should try and finish it proper though I agree with you there I like my stuff ripe I never pull a plant early if anything overcooked a tad don't get me wrong cannas good just it's not for me It gives the bud a very specific taste to it i don't like so much myself

finally someone who agrees with me about Canna, haha.
believe me dude, I have tried! he's a dirt grower so I've tried all sorts of recommendations, from mykos to sea bird shit, the fucker is stubborn as a mule!
in the 80s he used to grow NL in a barn down Southampton, he's a crazy fucker but won't change for no one.
