What's your Bubblegum tasting like?

 

[Dusty Kiefers]

@Pennywise I knew you'd make brother. Stand up guy you are.

 

[Dusty Kiefers]

@Pennywise Its definitely turning pink sweet. Think in about a week we will be there. Right now the earthy backgroung is up front. Pulled like two weeks early its still heavy.

 

[Pennywise]

Take your time with it.

 

[AngryBird]

Sweet babies
I'm right snack in the middle of penny and (sry )DV's dog

 

[Dusty Kiefers]

@Pennywise we have her clone in flower. Getting ready for ten weeks and heavy feeds. Yes!
@AngryBird thank you kindly. We had bad luck last set so as the great balance of life would have it were off to a great start.

I'm here for the ride D.K. Great genetics and great gardening makes for another awesome journal!! Got my eyes on the star pupil (hopefully purple) and the LA Kush Cake!

 

[Dusty Kiefers]

@Jgrowlove high brother glad you could make it. Hope for some purple too. She has a nice red in the veins. I picked her this run so she could finish in the cooler temps. Fingers crossed.

 

[Dusty Kiefers]

Two weeks of 10/14 time this is when we clean out the lower branches or lolly pop. Mrs.K got in there and stripped them down.

Two week clean up before

The chem is doing so well.. my auto already is starting to transition lol. Hopefully she will veg out a bit longer for ya! Those are some naked looking gals.. I have trouble exposing my ladies so much. Not all the buds get as dense though if they are that low and covered by everything else.. still get nice and frosty.

Those buds sure look tasty.. sac and silver pie especially. What's the flavor of the purple Strawberry cush, you may have mentioned before but she looks like a good one as well. A heavy hitter?

Spectacular gardening dusty.. I like the new journal. That is a good idea. You and the wife keep up the hard work brother!

 

[Dusty Kiefers]

Thanks Toasty. Haha I cant strip them like that either. Mrs.K seams to not have two cares lol. Last run she kept it to a minimal and she was certain they would of done better if she did her normal thing. Shes mean sometimes. Lol.
The purple strawberry cush is realy realy tasty. Its like if you mixed strawberry and apricot jelly then tasted them alternately though the joint. Im sure they will meld into some kinda sweet ass fruity cocktail with time. The effect is straight indica from the start. Im pretty sure I can crash in the middle of an action movie on this stuff.

 

[imtoasted]

Man yea she is a savage.. you got a good one that is for sure lol. Will be cool to see if it works out better for ya guys. That sounds delicious.. a heavy hitting indica to boot makes it better. May have to try that or the Strawberry vortex next time. good stuff buddy!

 

[Dusty Kiefers]

Im ready for some impressions from the noahs ark x sac.
Every strawberry vortex has been indica leaner on effect. All have been tasty from earthy to sweet. All have had both, some express one more than the other.

 

[imtoasted]

Good to know man thank you.. you all know how hard it is to choose what to grow next. Any info is great.. but think I'll try the cosmic lemons and the purple Strawberry cush next time. Sounds sexy lol.

 

[LaquerHead]

I made it! Looking good Dusty you always run 10/14?
