Dude is a down to earth generous person working with legit cuts, definitely deserves any money coming to him. Xanadu is fire!
Not quite sure of his selection skills but he's not doing much line work anyway.

You're gonna love them! I grew a couple Dracarys plants, one smelled like grape rock candy and melons, other had a minty gas smell. Both plants were super frosty. Im a new grower, and even with my lack of knowledge and numerous mistakes, they still turned out great :blsmoke:

Take this all with a grain of salt, the Dracarys were part of my second grow ever. I was having trouble with soils in the beginning, so these plants weren't given optimal environments, and they still thrived.
I started them in jiffy pucks with a drop of superthrive, they all sprouted within 72 hours. Very vigorous growth in veg, I mainlined them to help train them all to fit in my 2x4x6 flower cabinet, but I didn't do a very good job of training. I tried to extend veg as long as I could because my flower cabinet was full. Here they are after 8 weeks of veg, all mainlined to 8 tops. Light is a single 288 bspec on 120 watt driver. Only thing they were fed in veg was Alaska Fish Fertilizer 5*1*1, algamic, and a few ewc top dressings.

Moved them into my big cabinet once it was opened up. They were under (4) qb120s on a 320 watt driver. They stretched about 18" after the flip, so almost double in height. Not sure if mainlining effected stretch. I did have to put a support pole in each pot, and tie all the branches with 16ga coated wire to the support. Tomato cage would have been perfect. About 6 weeks into flower I started seeing some problems on my leaves. Tested the soil, and my potassium was basically gone. Nitrogen and phosphorus were still plentiful. Not sure what was going on with micronutrients, didn't have any way to test for them. I top dressed each 3 gallon pot with a tablespoon of kelp meal, and made up a couple of banana peel teas, but I believe it was too little too late.
This is about week 6 of flower, when I noticed the lower leaf deficiencies. They were already frosty, but honestly not much smell. None of the sour bubbas or dracarys had much of a smell in flower, unless you were right on the bud, until right about the time I chopped them, I would imagine they were lacking something in the soil that they needed to produce smell? One of of the Dracarys has a grape rock candy and melons smell, and the other has a minty gas smell, but only when your nose is right on the buds. They both looked pretty similar in size and structure.

The plants continued to add bulk. I'd say they added about 30% in the last couple weeks, but they didn't double like I hear a lot of people experience. I believe this is completely my fault, due to my lack of knowledge and stress I put on the plants. But I'm thrilled with the way they turned out. Dense and frosty nugs. Very stoney high :blsmoke:
If I can get these results, its a testament to Katsu's genetics. An experienced grower is gonna get some incredible smoke out of these plants. Ive got 1 more seed im saving. Once I get my coots mix soil going and get some more experience under my belt, im gonna pop that bean and see if I can bring out its full potential.

Highly recommend Katsu. I've known him for about 20 years and you won't find a nicer guy. Very generous and a straight shooter. I'd recommend signing up for his newsletter. I always look forward to getting it and seeing what he's coming up with next.
I can recommend the signing up for his newsletter. Always offering first dibs on the newest goodies at discount. Plus he often shares knowledge on various topics from food to clone shipping. Great newsletter.

Has anyone found fast finishing phenos in Dracary?
The Dracarys is awesome...and try the Black Lime Bubba, it's outstanding. They are currently my 2 favorites. The Dracarys finishes in about 8-9 weeks, and the Black Lime Bubba about 7-9...the chunkier BLB pheno finish's in 7 weeks so if you are looking for high quality and quick, Black Lime Bubba.
 
I’m soaking 2 Bubbas breath and two Dracary today anyone run Katsu before?View attachment 4731053
Currently running the dracarys, key lime kush, and snuck in one of his headbandXhotcakes. Week 2 of flower and everything is looking beautiful. One of the key limes is a fat sturdy plant with some of the fattest leaves ive seen. Smells are starting to become a little more prominent.
