Vortex

[Bruce Wheelman]

Strain Name: Vortex

From: Trinity Gardens Collective

When: August 2010

Grade: A-

Type: Sativa Dom. Hybrid (Apollo 13 x Space Queen)

Price: $160/half oz.

Looks: Darker green pine cone shaped nuggets with LOTS of orange-red hairs.

Smell: Strong spiced citrus with a slight hint of petroleum.

Taste: Similar to the smell - but mainly the spiced flavor coming through.

Buzz Type: A nice sativa buzz - mainly a floaty, mind numbing feeling. Very cerebral.

Buzz Length: Medium to Long – the buzz lasted for around 1.5-2 hours.

Best Medicinal Use: Energetic mood enhancement

Overall: A great strong sativa - perfect for a wake-n-bake with a cup of coffee. Buzz was not sedentary at all, but the cerebral effects kept me from getting much done requiring detailed thought.

The first time i smoked this was out of a peculator bong and it was great! Highly recommended!

 

[Lucky man]

One of the best strains I have ever had the pleasure of enjoying.

Sounds like a nice Sativa - I think I'm gonna look into throwing this into my own rotation!

 

[420GodsTrichome]

Isn't this a TGA Subcool strain?

I have a Vortex clone in vegetation, about 2 weeks away from 12/12 and preflowering. Does anyone have any advice on growing techniques or the plants idiosynchrosy's? Any feedback would be awesome. Thanks

TGA plants can get big fast. You don't need to over feed it.

The Vortex turned out to be some of the best medication I've ever grown. Thanks everybody for the information!

 

[Ranger275]

Thx for the excellent review. It seems like the more research I do on strains the harder it is to narrow it down. Quick question: what is TGA?

 

[DrRosko]

$160 for one half O?! Is that normal?

 

[TattooedJT]

Vortex used to be in my rotation. I grew it for 2 years and took it out to make room for a new strain...man do I miss Vortex!

 

[cannilingus]

i miss my aurora indica.

 

[cannilingus]

i had two of tgas streins. both hermed. i liked the jack the ripper, tho.

 

[lrrps469]

grew vortex 3-4 years ago , was a free b . Gave some to a couple of friends , both were out doing something and both went home because they both got paranoid and couldn't think . Small but powerful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TheGrowQueen]

Out of my Vortex 6 seeds 5 were female. I noticed the male showed early, making it really easy to notice and discard before it effected my other plants. Using plantlife's the hammer (advanced nuts. hammed head is similar) to help keep her short as it can grow quite tall and definitely needs to be trained. Only a few days into bud and can't wait until harvest.

 

[lrrps469]

only grew 1 , was a freebee , forgot about it after harvest . super powerful . Actually sort of over whelming for some of my friends .
