well your not totally off tonight, I've been working on making sure their is as little stress to the plant at least until its a true plant in a solo cup with 4 good nodes or so. if they get whacked or anything happens early it will definitely effect the end product.

a lot of phenos dont show weakness until week 2 bloom really. thats when i can usually tell when I'm gonna have an issue. 9/10 the plant I'm having the issues with throughout flower will turn out bad.

for instance i have a bruce banner right now that i would of told you was a boy... 4 bruce banners popped with 3/4 making nice squat bushes and 1 TALL lenky crazy fucker. like 4x the hight of the rest... went in to flower a full 3 weeks before the others and is still twice as tall....

well this plant smelled like some straight up gasoline in veg. smelled so good it made the hair on the back of my neck tingle. well about week 3 after she stretched and showed me that LEMON RIND was 90% of the terp profile she started fading FAST. she's now about week 6 and is yellower then hell.. the buds are coming in alright but its gonna be very tangerine dream whispy lemon shit.

out of the other 3 one has a very similar terp profile and is very healthy (Kind of a clue to my original quandary) one of them is very very appealing with some nice gasoline skunky funkness in a way i haven't had yet. and the last one hasn't shown her stripes yet really.

now to my original issue, would the tall plant of retained more gasoline terps or skunk terps had i nailed her needs? did my environment bring out the lemon rind? as i type this i think about all the lemon rind bull shit weed nubs grow too... I've taken my HGK clone and seen some of the most amazing things done to it in other rooms and it tasted much better then when i grow it. the buds made spikes instead of tight golf balls. totally different looking plant. super low yielding but just amazing smoke.

environment has to play a part in the terp expression but i just wonder how much?
I am not singing the praises of one method or the other, but my neighbor gave me a cutting of Jilly Bean. After I flowered it, a few weeks later I brought over a joint and he got very stoned. He asked what that was, and I told him. He thought he was smoking something else.
He grows HPS and I grow multi spectrum fluoros. Different Nutes, he grows in coco, I grow in peat and perlite.
Totally different flavor profile and buzz, even appearance.
The most interesting thing occurred this week.
I harvested my Boss Hogg from the same mother as the previous four harvests. I switched nutes recently and this Boss grew bigger, frostier and yielded more. Same light and veg time, different results and the smoke seems stronger.
Maybe I dialed it in more?
I agree with what BudBro 18 said as well.
After a year of popping ceeds and running a perpetual multi-strain, I am looking forward to getting to another keeper or two and cloning for awhile. I've been sexing and popping regs for a while now, (collecting a little pollen along the way) and could use a break from the guesswork.

With that said, I have three orders in transit as we speak. Two are from the Tude, one is from Seed Depot. I couldn't resist the Christmas Bash at the Tude. They are limiting it to one per household.

I sent them to separate addresses. I split up my order, so even if I lose one out of three, I should still get part of it.
It does cost $27.00 more for the shipping though. I no longer care about concealment. I order the breeders packs and all the bells and whistles. I have lost orders to seizures that were well hidden, and seen beans get through packages that had green tape on them.
If it's your turn, then try again. I am four out of six, with customs. That's why I figure I'll get at least two of the packages. One is already a replacement, so I hope that one gets through. It is Madd Farmer, Strawberry Frost. It took four months for that to come back in. It will be gone again soon.

I finally bought some Fem ceeds again. I even selected the fem freebies. I am so fucking sick of that Delta9 Labs sativa pack. What did they do, spill all the beans on the floor or have an earthquake problem or something.
How many more of these mixed packs do we have to see? I have thrown many away.
