Here's the Magic melon I have going at about 20 days in, more discrete nugs than stacked ones just like the last time I grew it. It does have a fruity smell that's picking up but not an excessively sweet one.

This is an Apple blossom, one of my favorites last summer, same smell as I remember it; very sweet, flowery, nectary honey smell.

When I topped the plant earlier I rooted the top and planted it, the top is also flowering but further along:

And a blueberry cupcake which seems like it took longer to respond to the seasonal change, but I'm in no hurry.

East Coast
Is that normal for you on that side?
I'm on the west coast, and in my limited grows my plants usually are not even getting close to being done until the end of September. I'm hoping to give this one a couple more weeks, but bud rot has been popping up.
You have an issues with rot or anything else?

No not normally, usually about same time september and harvest in October.

It's kind of a spicy buttery cookie smell that gets more of the garlicky chem as it ripens. I grew it last year too, and it was eye-watering by the time we took it down (pics below). It's definitely from the GMO/chem cookies "family", but I think it's a good iteration of that type of strain.

It's a sweet floral smell, think nectar/honey more than fruity. It's honestly been my favorite thing from HSC, it flowers quickly and has appealing looking nugs and the one I had last year was a really pleasant smoke both flavor and potency wise.

The one I have this year smells the same and the one that's furthest along looks pretty similar so I'm hopeful.

Here's some Venom OG aka Asphalt Plant aka All gas OG...I've grown this a few times, and the terps that this gives off is gassy, diesel, hash, funk, purples out all the way thru the buds, yields great, and has a nice indica high. She's never leaving my garden...Sorry for the low quality picsView attachment 4602085View attachment 4602087View attachment 4602105
How's the effect of the Venom on you? Darkheart list it at 50/50 sativa/indica but it feels waaaay heavier in actuality. The ones i grew had good euphoria but makes me sleepy.

Collie man kush, this plant is a beast and just would not stop stretching. Finally really set into flower, one of the latest bloomers in my garden hopefully she finishes by mid October because this thing ain't moving. Cut off all the tops after the smushed into the ceiling. The plant across from her is about 6ft.

My lemongrass is still stretching. I got my girlfriend an outdoor patio swing for her birthday, it also doubles as a blind for my plant. It may end up being 6ft counting the pot height. it will be last week of october when I harvest most likely. Hopefully it doesn't drag into november. Last year was my first outdoor grow. Had a couple of plants that dragged all the way to thanksgiving. I wasn't smart/experienced enough to jump start the flowering by moving them up against my house to shorten the sunlight. I also learned about locusts the hard way. Those mofos will devour a plant. I killed multiple that were 4 inches long.

The lemongrass pheno I had in my tent last winter was the biggest stretcher out of the 4, straight lemmon drop smell from her. I have a cross made in that tent from her that I'm growing right now too. Definitely carried the stretch and insane node spacing over. I beleive there some Thai in there.
