Update MedCzech's ManCave BioTabs Smoke Report 
This is just a quick update for all you guys who were following this thread. I didn't want to lose you completely, as the whole entire reason for this grow was "The Flavor Chase"...
I am happy to report, that as we get the buds to start curing and getting their internal RH down to where it needs to be, there is a lot of great smoking along the way. I have been testing each strain as it goes through the process in the name of science.
Ok, in the name of good reporting.
Okay!! Because I am impatient and didn't want to wait,...there ya go Med, be honest with your readers!
I will make some photos of the nugs over the weekend, but for now here is the preliminary report.

Orange Biscuit--
Grow level- easy to grow, medium to large plant, big eater this girl!
9/10
Frost level- sticky frosty girl. With sweet citrus aromas with some spice in the background.
9/10
Flavor level- sweet orange spice and tons of resin covered loveliness. Ticks all my boxes, and due to all those terpenes, she lifts the mood and spirits. Great all day smoke.
10/10
Overall- best strain for overall performance of flavor and strength as well as effects. Mephisto will need to run this strain again. It is the best of their citrus strains so far.
9.5/10

Chem Stomper- Grow level- she struggled sue to genetic flaw, and my ignorance to that fact as I then over watered her in the first three weeks. Hard to really judge this grow, but she fought hard.
8/10
Frost level- there wasn't a ton of frost until the end, but I am sure her sisters will frost up nicely. This poor little girl struggled.
7.5/10
Flavor level- this is whee she out shines all the rest. Grape candy or Fruity Pebbles is what I get each time, amazing stuff!
10/10
Overall- this girl will get run again, she needs ad deserves a better look. I think she might be one of Mephistos best ever strains. This example to be fair get s slightly lower grade, but perfection is possible.
9/10

Purple Nuggets - Grow level- super aggressive plant from the start and needs lots of food, but not a heavy drinker. She gets as wide as she is tall with real rock like buds, hence her name...Nuggets! Train her well and be rewarded.
8/10
Frost level- she puts some nice frost on early, but not as much as other strains, as her purple genetics make her a beauty to behold. Lower on odor as well, but still very high in resin content.
8.5/10
Flavor level- wine/berry and some subtle combination of a few other terpenes like pinene, so Pine flavor, and myrcene, so lie an all spice or nutmeg deal, but very subtle under the berry notes. This will improve with the cure IMO...
8.5/10
Overall- i really like this strain for her balance and subtleties. Gorgeous plant, such a pleasure to look at, great , unique flavor, and some of the most solid buds I have ever grown.
8.5/10

Sour Livers- Grow level- she was a real treat to grow as most mephisto strains are these days. No fuss, big eater and drinker, light training only with this girl.
8.5/10
Frost level- super frosty, sparkling diamonds come early and come fast. Looks so good in photos!
10/10
Flavor level- i just didn't get lucky on this phenotype. She looks awesome, Andy she is great tasting, super strong herb, but she isn't really the perfect example of Livers. She is minty, berry blast, that's the best way I can describe her. Almost like an old sweet cough syrup or something with the menthol effect with lots of dank diesel aftertaste. Not bad, but not what I was hoping for.
7/10
Overall- forgive the analogy here but, she has everything you want in the looks department, but then she smiles, and you have to look away at the hideousness that is her crooked teeth.
This plant is awesome in almost every way, if you can just ignore the crooked smile, you can have a wonderful life together. This being the Flavor Chase, I can not ignore it.
7.5/10

Gorilla Glue- Grow level- she was a little difficult at the start. She doesn't like too much water, keep water away from base of stem. Very open structure on this phenotype, but picky eater. I suggest conservative on watering and allow soil to dry slightly in between.
7/10
Frost level- started off slow, but then came on really hard in the end with excellent frost and super sticky buds.
8/10
Flavor level- unfortunately, the unique cage like structure was a genetic anomaly that usually ends up in the buds riceing out and losing so much after the drying process. She was no exception. Frost and resin dropped dramatically and she went on a huge diet. Buds became fluffy, but flavor did remind very nice. Lots of pinene means Pine flavor, and the sticky glue and gas flavor in the background. The first test nug was so good, but she never lived up to that after.
6/10
Overall- a big disappointment, but a better understanding of the strain and another experience to draw from. Hopefully next time we can find the right phenotype. Probably to be used for hash or some concentrates of some kind in the end.
6.5/10
