16 week strain and no smell?!
#433976 - 06/17/10 08:13 AM (14 years, 5 months ago) |

forgive me, this strain was donated to me by someone who has proven to be a competent individual, they themselves purchased the mother plant from someone after smoking some of its fruit and loving it to the point of needing to grow it. All I know about it is: 16 week strain, pure sativa.
Clone. veg'ed for 3 weeks before placing in Ebb&Flow table with Scrog. Have been using plain water (under 250ppm) with a Ph of 5.7-6.1 for the last week and a half, last night I gave it florakleen, roughly 1-2 teaspoons per gallon.
My concern is that the plant is going on 17 weeks and it still has a grassy smell. Is this normal, considering that I do not know much, this might be standard for this strain, but considering that the original owner enjoyed smoking it, I imagine that it did not smell like fresh cut grass.
On monday of next week it will hit 17 weeks, I am dying to take her down as she has taken up a lot of space and time. I am going to yield about a pound easily, she dominated a 3'x3' screen and has huge colas everywhere (for a sativa, with its christmas tree nugs).
Any advice, insight, or comments would be wonderful. I tried looking up strain lists but it was difficult to assess which is which and the reliability of the sites information.
Thanks for the help.

That is a bold statement for one plant.
As for the smell, it just goes strain by strain to my knowledge, more than confidant in saying that the smell has next to nothing to do with the potency, quality of smoke

I wouldn't say its normal, especially that late in flowering, but it could just be a low-odor strain/plant. Hard to say really.
The smell you're looking for could still emerge after the cure though so don't fret until then.

Thanks for the input. In other words, relax, everything will be ok. Lol, that's why you are all here, to relax, if not sedate me with info.
by the way, even though it is a sativa-dominant plant, she is massive, I topped her about 3-4 times before throwing her under 12/12 and she stretched all over the Scrog, if this plant were vertical, she would be a 3 foot bush, unable to support the weight of the colas.
I will chime in with the final weight and pictures... cause without them, just another inflated response.
Thanks again, anyone else who would like to provide additional insight, please feel free to do so.

Plz post pics of your plant before and after harvest. I wanna see what a plant looks like that needs 4 months of flowering indoors.

I wasn't trying to mess with you man, I was just saying that I have never seen a plant yield that much, I wasn't saying you couldn't do it!

Here are pictures before harvest

In the background is some Super Lemon Haze and The Church, both are great tasting and quality smoke.

I will post some close-up shots of the buds later on this week, waiting for them to fully dry to show end product.
By the way, I flushed the crap out of it, thats why all the leaves yellowed and died, plus, I doubt the trichomes are all amber, lol, when I harvested, barely cloudy.

The nugs are not as dense as they seem, being that its a pure sativa, it makes up in density by having many clusters of Christmas tree shaped nugs side by side, up close, you can see that the buds do not swell.

nice, pure sativas are weird, i grew one that all the fan leaves just started dying and i couldnt fix it no matter what i fed it, but the smoke is the smoothest herb ive ever smoked, and mixing a nug of it with my harsher indo smoke makes it smooth also, i love it

I smoked some the other night and I have to say, pure sativa with no couchlock AT ALL, makes me feel like I need another joint. Is that the case when trying something like pure sativa?
Would love some feedback on experiences smoking 100% Sativa
P.S. I harvested with 3-5% Amber Trichomes, rest were cloudy, with another 5% clear, this is all an approximation.

The pure sativa i grew was just like absolutely all in your head 0 body stoned feeling at all. just energetic yet mellowed out, does make you want to smoke more definitely. the smoke was smooooth and the buds had a fruity smell that drove you insane if you smelt it bout couldnt inhale it.

so your sativa didnt stretch 2X its size in height and girth in flower? everyone keeps telling me to expect that with mine.
