      ๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ’จ Smoke Report

      For Battle of The Breeders -Lilac Diesel Auto by Ethos Genetics. (86 days total grow)

      Got 96g of bud which isn't too bad. It's been 21 days since I chopped her and I've been enjoying her already so time for a report on this lovely gem.
      She was dealing with nitrogen toxicity most of her flowering. It seems to have been triggered by the super cropping of the main stalk. Soon after that I started noticing all the leaves above the break were growing only 3 pointed leaves and they were dark green. I tried flushing some out but it didn't do much good. About 90% of the bud is larfy. It's not dense and it's got zero bag appeal.

      That's about where the negatives end. The rest are all glowing positives. First, the smell ๐Ÿ‘ƒ. She smells like sour lemon candy with a gassy funk. The sour lemon are very sharp on the nose and they're finished with a fragrant incense smell of frankincense or nag champa. I'm finding this incensey type gas common across Ethos cultivars. It's this incensey gassy kind of smell/taste on the UG that got me so obsessed with it and the Lilac Diesel has a similar type of gas. Very big fan. IDK exactly what it is about it about that flavor makes my head buzz with ants. I get so excited when I taste it.

      The Taste ๐Ÿ‘…. Like it smells. That gassy incense taste is the first thing you get. After you get the lemony, earthy sugary taste. So full of flavor. With trichomes as big as sugar crystals, each puff is so full of all these delicious exotic flavors.

      The Effects. Superb. It's a good semi clear headed high. It's not a couch locker but it def does give you the fuzzy visual distortion but without major munchies. It's clear headed enough to where you can still do complex tasks like playing an instrument or garden work.

      So far everything I've grown from Ethos has been a winner. Super excited to grow more of their genetics in the future but I need to experiment with others. Humboldt Seed Co really impressed me with that Pound Town Auto. I need some solid blue dream genetics (Humboldt)and wedding cake (Barney's farm) genetics. Of course, the 2 I wanted to order are sold out. Maybe they'll have them by Christmas. This way I can do Acai Freak (if I have a female), my cross (BD x MAC1), blue dream and wedding cake. If not then I'll grow, sour orange by super natural seeds and grape stomper x something else by Purple Caper seeds. Just to mix it up and not just grow all Ethos Genetics ๐Ÿ˜…

      Before I get more side tracked, OVERALL, she may not be a looker but, the taste and the high make up for it. I don't sell any of this stuff so ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ it's all for me to smoke. I'm a big fan of the terpene profile. I will CERTAINLY pick up seeds of this cultivar in the near future. Gotta grow her proper. I may even get the auto and the photo versions to see if I like one over the other.

      This next all Ethos grow is shaping up to be one of my best and I'm only a month into the grow. The terpenes are already crazy. If you bump any of them it's like a fruit bouquet. At least the next ones will be lookers too, unlike the Lilac Diesel ๐Ÿคž

        Bag appeal is just that and nothing to worry about. It smokes great and that's what matters.

        Bag appeal and density are of course effected by the stress of supercropping and its either supercrop and get what you can or nothing typically.

        Good job!

        Bluey In hindsight I didn't need it. Should have just kept bending. But it's okay. I might regrow this one. It's mighty good smoke!

      ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธOne Month into Bloom Update ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ

      My Living Soil Recipe vs the Earth Box fertilizer pack

      Not to toot my own horn ๐Ÿ“ฏ but I shall! My living soil (despite the finicky GBoF) is performing WAY better than the Earth box nutrients. That's not to say there's anything wrong with the earth box nutrients. They're growing some SOLID flower. Rock hard solid, too!
      The living soil just has an edge. The buds are almost 2x the size and width as the earth box ones. They look a bit frostier too. That's about it. The buds are just bigger. Both boxes smell FREAKING AMAZING. Good Lord, I think this will be the BEST grow to date. No runts, bad genetics, weird anomalies or anything of the sort. Just 4 beautiful, solid plants with the most amazing terpene profiles.
      The ๐Ÿ‡ on the Grape Balls of Fire smells like fresh concord grapes. Down to the leather shell you get from their skins. She's super magnesium hungry. I just added langbienite to the top soil. 9.0% soluble magnesium. She's got 1 month to go. I'm not adding anything else. If she's going to cannibalize herself; let her. Those buds are THICC already
      The 2x Uncle Grandpa's still smell like Ludens cherry๐Ÿ’ cough drops with an incensey, fragrant like gas.
      The Mandarin Zkittlez smells like fresh orange ๐ŸŠ peels in jet fuel maybe. It's a very sharp gas smell. It doesn't have that dank gasoline it's more effervescent.
      The Cross smells like lemonade ๐Ÿ‹.
      I'm super happy with this variety in flavor. It's โœ… every box for me... Especially the ease of growth. I've just been asking water every 2 days. Fertilizer top dress 1x a month and BTI with recharge or soil revival every 2 weeks to keep the gnats away.

      Also smoked this AMAZING stuff over the weekend. Holy hell does it smell like the ass end of a skunk but man oh man oh man..... The high..... SPECTACULAR. So giggly, so social, so buzzy. I see why Colorado is going nuts over this cultivar. I think I may have to look for some seeds of this. IDK about growing it because of that HEAVY heavy skunk smell. I can hide the fruity smells but I can't hide skunk.

      Always happy growing y'all. I hope things are going smoothly for everyone. It's a nice feeling to have things ACTUALLY dialed in and it's all working like it should. ๐ŸŒป

        Crazy to think about that they have 4 more weeks to go! If they finish in 60 days....

        Posted a 1-year update of my Worm Bin. I did the hard reset 2 months ago when I collected the castings. You'll be surprised how much work the little critters do.

        Glad I got started. These castings are something else entirely. Best quality.
