Re: Still Growing- SoCal Hybrids & Mexican & Colombian Sativas Under Sun Natural Syst
Ok guys, I think it’s fair to do an update
First thing I wanted two say that there’s been a political initiative started from two parties in Italy, which aims for legalizing weed. But Italy is a country where things kinda roll very slowly, so I wouldn’t jump huooray just yet
Well, stil it’s a progress from being nowhere near accepting the fact that criminalizing millions of users and growers is impossible or there’s no victim there’s no crime law, which has to be changed to socially accepted legislation. Anyway, medical weed has been technically legal in Italy for 1,5, but new law ruled out the option of autoproduction, which pushed doctors and patients for importing weed from Holland for a price close to 80 euro a gram if I remember well. Yeah, government bullshit as always.
Anyway, going back to the grow, I finished with 12 seedlings basically, and two beans still in the ground. Have these two Grape Apes still going on. Yeah they’re actually getting stronger with every day, and I was even thinking about cloning, but we’ll see. We also have a quite nice bunch of Grape Dogz, which look a bit different from the Gas, they have purple legs and small, thick, and dark green first leaves. But it’s really hard to say what it is gonna be with these ones. Still hope for a nice smoke here.
Then few O.G. Kushes are growing too, and one was a little different, darker, less delicate leg, which means it might be a Ultra O.G., which is O.G. Kush x MK Ultra, a parent of Aurora Ultra, which will be popped very soon I think as this is my favorite medicinal strain at the moment. Really, after smoking it I just cannot go back to other indicas, even Grape Ape, which I’ve just finished, is not that good to be honest. It’s a real painkiller strain giving me great relief when I have back problems, and it’s also very giggly and kinda uplifting to a certain level. Also, quite potent. There’s a pheno called Super Frosty, which kills me with 2-3 tokes completely. I’ll be working with it a lot I can feel
I’ve also been smoking and thinking how these terpenes break down nicely with time and relative potency is raising. My Orient Express went exotic fruit all the way close to papaya/strawberry smell I think. Taste went sourish though like one of these brutal hazes, more sour than Sour Diesel or Trainwreck. The last one became like ammonia when you sniff it, very tangy. Here I got the cleanest smoke though, smooth as lemonade and very lemoney.
Anyway, I still prefer my Nanda Devi, I’ve made this hash and when it’s finished I’m gonna have to make some more. It’s such a happy and stimulating strain and meditative and erotic too. It’s the best strain with worst taste I’ve ever smoked. But hash offsets a lot of downsides to it, still this very weird smoky exhale is definitely a part of it. Well, anyway I wouldn’t swap it, cause there’s a Shiva power there
As far as plants are concerned I think it’s still to early to pluck some leaves for Brix checkup. At the moment they have to fight recurring cold, low sun activity, and high RH. That’s how you treat them to get the monsters that will survive everything later. Less insect problems, less mold, greater vigor during temps changes, stronger stems that way. Also plants grown under sunlight from the beginning tend to be higher in THC, and they will perform better during summer, when temps will reach 105-110F in the shadow. I firmly believe in that, and I am rarely disappointed
Yeah ok, here’s photos cause I went on a real rant here, and you have to see these for yourself.

Have a green evening, and don't forget to smoke one
