Determined to get a win with my Sugar Cane, so here we go my friends:

100_24312.JPG

Taste: Like the name describes, with a lingering hint of fruit, something tropical
High: IN YO FACE!!! Per my tastes and view, my SC gets a 10/10 for stone and taste, same from everyone that's tried it, except the ones that said it got them too high. No ceiling whatsoever, I've smoked it constantly with same stone as first J.
Medicinal : Great relief from lower back pains, and muscle pains. Crohns symptoms are also reduced for my mother, and she has less spells according to her. Beware of munchies with it though, although cotton mouth isn't very bad at all, almost nonexistant. Also note a cooloer core temperature, because if you smoke a J out in 100 degree weather, your seem to feel the breeze a little better, and notice that you are more refreshed and overall "feel" like the temp dropped a little.
Genetics are (Imported Afghani strain x Mexican Skunk) x Northern Lights, then crossed back to (Imported Afghani strain x Local Skunk), several pheno's from that were crossed to Male Columbian Sativa, which would get you STONED off his leaves, I mean ripped!!
 
Dang GT!!! you beat me to the first entry!!!

Well I will claim entry number 2!!!

Here we have ourselves some Cotton Candy OG!!! she is a 4.2 gram nug that I purchased from a local dispensary!!! She is Indica dominant and super heavy stone!!! the high lasted about 3 hours on average, but the pain part of the meds lasted for about a good 6 hours!!!
Hope you all enjoy!!!

:peacetwo: and :goodluck: to all!!!
 
and to the Mods!!! sorry about the part that states where it is from!!! that will no longer be happening!!! I freshened up on the guidelines and saw that without being an approved shop, we are not allowed to be publishing for them...

If need be, let me know, take it off, and I will re-do the image!!!

:peacetwo:
 
Purdy bro!! I have that strain, can't wait to grow it out. Good luck!!!!

LUCKY!!! after medicating with this strain!!! I kept hoping that I would find 1, just 1 seed!!! but no go :straightface::rollingeyes:
 
Gotta enter my PPP since its done. My first time doing a complete seed to harvest.

The smoke is very smooth and easy on the lungs, even uncured. Has nice frutty smell and taste. Is rather lung expanding. U feel the effect right away, and it takes u for a ride wich reaches the top quickly, and it flows without any intensity (not kicks, u know, wham bam thank u mam IM OUT......).
Lasting on the top for full 1 hour
the high is head high, but with nice softness in the head and the body. Surrounding conciousness booster.
It is very soft sativa influence. It is "up and go" kind of stone, although u can relax. Good for listening to music (
Not much thought provoking, more like focusing whithout your brain interfering. What im trying to say.... "it calms random thoughts".
When landing aproaches, the softness wears of and u can fell a litle speedy effect (but nothing overwelming, just suprise after all this softness).
Potency is good, very crystally (similar to widdow). No paranoia. No dissorientation. No problem to sociolice.

I recommend this one, if u are looking for very easy plant with good sativa high (wich grows like streachy indica) with above average yeld.

Hey guys I love the site, I'm pretty sure I've been on every single day since i made my account back in October of '11. I learn something new every single time I log on, that's one of the main reasons I love 420 Magazine so much! I'm a new grower but this site has taught me more than I need to know to grow a beautiful plant. I would like to submit a beautiful nugget from my first and only completed grow to date. It was a Pineapple Express Feminized Autoflower and it took me about 80 days from seed to harvest. Here are the pics, if I get even 1 vote I will be thoroughly satisfied!!!!

Edit: These pictures were taken and uploaded from my cell phone, no photoshop or enhancements of any kind.

The smoke was very tasty and the buzz very cerebral. The high wasn't overpowering at ll and came on very calmly. I felt uplifted and energized withing 20 minutes of a 2-3 bowl session out of a water pipe. I wish I still had some left because I feel like I got a lot more things done when it was. A nice bud to smoke in the morning because you won't just fall right back asleep if you wake n' bake!!
 
keep it up. i also cannot wait every day i log in to here and it more bud porn AWESOME SITE!!!! and people are more awesome:)
 
Have I said before how much I love it when a nice smoke reports accompanies the entries? If not, I should have! :high-five:

Nice entries so far! :yahoo: Keep 'em coming!

:allgood:
 
Great entries so far. Days are flying get yours in and be the first 25 participants before voting time starting the 16th!

Still pondering what to enter next...

NOTHING with your cheating camera!!! LOL!!! another one of your strains I hope!!! or was the Firestorm the only breed you had harvested now???

:peacetwo:
 
Once again, great entries so far by all! :welldone:

Let's hope we get a lot more before voting starts!

For my entry this month, I present you all with Kannabia Power Skunk.

She was a freebie seed when I ordered the Lucy & Pineapple Express seeds, and I have to admit, she's a great strain! Very dense & heavy buds that are just covered with trichs.

This bud has been curing for a month, now:

Here's is the smoke report copied from my journal:

POWER SKUNK SMOKE REPORT

It's only been two weeks that the Power Skunk has been curing, but I couldn't wait any longer to dip into a good bud for the smoke report.

First, this is some STANKY stuff! Despite it's name, it doesn't really smell "skunky" to me at all, but it's got an extremely strong & pungent fruity smell that's really tough to describe, but I guess the closest thing I can come up with is something like fermenting orange peels.

For a non-smoker, I could see how the smell could be a little offensive, but for those of us that partake, it's got the kind of stink that screams "smoke me & you won't regret it but if you're gonna grow me, you better have some good odor control!"

It's got a nice citrus/skunky flavor that's most notable on the exhale and this stuff goes right to your head numbing all senses. Definate couch-lock (just the way I like it!) and I'm trying to decide if it's as good or better than the Pineapple Express, and I'm having a tough time (but a lot of fun!) deciding!

You could see from the previous pictures that the Power Skunk was covered in dense trichomes that made the buds look like snow-covered alps; and, the buds themselves are extremely dense resulting in more weight than I had expected.

After two hits of the Power Skunk I found myself just staring at the TV for about 15 minutes until I realized I had no idea what I was watching and was only paying attention to the action playing out in my head and not what was playing out on the screen. It works GREAT for my back pain and also for help in getting to sleep.

It's definately some more great genetics I don't mind having around for some time but probably not what you want to be smoking when you need to think. It's not bad, though, for having to focus on one needless task where you can't break anything or hurt yourself too badly. It would be perfect if your job was stuffing envelopes, just not good if you had to address the envelopes, if you know what I mean!

As much as it's got the couch lock qualities, it's also some pretty social herb and definately helps the good times roll, providing good motivation for conversation on ways to solve the worlds problems using methods no one's ever thought of before and that you won't remember in an hour, anyways!

I have no doubt there are better strains, and no doubt a better grower would get better results than I with these strains, but I'd put both the Power Skunk and the Pineapple Express up as some of the best herb I've smoked/vaped and I like to think I've smoked some of the best!

If you're like me and you like you're herb stinky and leaving you feeling like you've been hit in the head with a 2"x4" - only without the pain, then the Power Skunk is for you!

I give the Power Skunk four out of five spliffs: :joint::joint::joint::joint:

I hope you enjoy!


Happy Harvests!
