Grow Journal & Smoke Reports

[Arising Green]

And I see some people have took interest in the grow!

Some of my cannabis has now been cured well over 6 months.

For instance, Soma's lavender, after a 6 month cure is just marvelous. That lovely lavender essence always has me coming back for more.

Also, I've been medicating with these strains for well over 4 months now and can come to some pretty concrete conclusions on what to expect to feel when I inhale..

Lavender...well...the term 'delightful' comes to mind. That is, however, for only about the first 10 minutes or so before I start getting slightly lazy, a little bit dumber and quite a bit intellectual. Too much and it starts getting trippy for me. Hard to explain. Spiritual, yes. The taste is so good. And I know I can find a better pheno.

Nirvana's AI is GREAT for pain. And sleep. And nausea. And stomach upset, ect...
And man it seriously calms the nerves, mind and all that is around. The taste is not so much fruity as it earthy and hashy with a tint of Robitussin infused berry. Highly recommend this strain. However, I have also grown Nirvana White Rhino and find the rhino superior for sleep, appetite and IBD. It seemed to help the most with the colitis.

The Angel Dust has been a great daytime and evening smoke. I find it a bit too strong to keep me sharp for work but it'd doable. It's a great after work smoke as it rev's up the appetite without making me too stupid and tired. I know better pheno's are out there so I can't wait to see what surprises I get!

The Nirvana White Widow I grew was interesting because it was such a great plant to grow but the smoke just doesn't turn me on. It makes my head pound a little too much and stupifies the hell out of me. I have the IQ of a newborn baby when I smoke this stuff. Perhaps if I harvested it earlier? Hell maybe the stupifying effect is common with WW? Idk.

I grew Purple Wreck in soil and then grew 6 clones in a DWC homemade system. I have always wanted to do this for the sole reason of comparing taste differences, bag appeal...ect.. (hydro vs. soil kinda thing)
They have both been curing now over 4 months and can say with no doubt that the Wrecks grown in soil have much better flavor and smell while the hydro buds are much harder with huge calyxes and tons of the 'sugar.' I look forward to experimenting more with this.

Thats a basic summary of the strains but Im sure I can provide more info! Love helping if I can!!
I'll get some pics up of the Purple Wreck hydro and soil buds so you can see the differences!

Peace.

Thanks for the coming back with the pics and reports!

Is the Purple Wreck still treating you right???

Any additional smoking analysis after another couple grows/longer cure?

All your results look amazing! Will you be back with another Grow journal?

No Problem Mr Botwin!

The Purple Wreck is treating me real good :) It is my daytime smoke.
1 small hit and my appetite is 'stimulated' most of the day and doesn't make stupid. I believe its 40% sativa so it actually keeps me up if I smoke before bed. Powerful stuff. Gotta keep the eye drops nearby
Highly recommend this strain.

I will never stop growing..:) So I'll be back with most of these strains and of course I'll be seeking out new strains as well! Until then I'll keep learning and preparing...

peace
