Waira puckers up for more KIS's with auto & photo ladiez!

...and a wee test cut bud, now dry enough to sample!
Nice texture, well frosted, rich mango-like aroma and something old and familiar from the past in a background nuance when chopped up....
Passes potency, smoothness, and flavor test with flying colors! Room smoke aroma is amazing, grasping to describe it though,... needs
further review ..... a lovely warm upbeat high, I suspect a lot of mycene in her, but for whatever reason nothing heavy at all which is expected by other's reports....

I could NOT pick just one!

I wish I had some of those spreaders!

Worth the wait, and then some @Waira ! An almost 100percent sativa, finishing perfectly, even the faschiated cola, and a lovely upbeat, smooth high directly off the dry…. nuff said….
You must be elated to have such an ample stash of rare, quality buds awaiting the jar/cure process.
That sample nug…. yum.

>>> #2, not quite there yet,..she's stacking some little foxtails too now -

From what I see here on AFN, most want to avoid foxtails. Do you view foxtailing as positive or negative?

To me, foxtails are adding more sepals/trichomes/THC without making any more woody stem; can be a welcome bonus at the end after main bud growth has stopped or slowed.

You didn't ask me but I've always found them positive as well unless they are excessively long ones that occur from stress. Most of the sativas I've grown do it as a reflowering several times by the time harvest happens.

we have oggled each others women for years old mate- .- Cheers to that!
I can pick your fav' rightly I think-- DOHz! She'd make a delish' cob too I'm betting... Now, seeds are the issue these days unfortunately,... Mac sent most of what he made out by the time I requested a hook up. I had to mooch these few off of eT! I don't know of any repro's done, maybe one planned but then that's going to F2 and that may shift things significantly. It's the speed that's the real magic of DOHz, the reverse cross and bx to OHz are all showing the typical long bloom times...

:smoking: I can fabricate some for you,...but shipping will be 99.9% of the cost! ...plus the PITA fee of course

It totally depends on the specifics behind it,... Many Sativa landrace/heirlooms tend to do this normally, some form full on braids of fox's as buds, or do that stacking thing from more or less solid buds. That Dr. Grinspoon pheno is an extreme example of this... I wish I could show the great variety of this phenomena, tons of pics from this private forum I'm on that has many such Sativa lr./heirloom types growing. These fanatics think nothing of riding a 4-5 month bloomer in a tent! All for that unique high that only a true NLD Sati' can give - Some of the lab tests were very interesting especially in the terpene profiles... That's where that magic is!
If it's caused by environmental and/or nutritional issues, then I generally view that as a negative, often what they make is inferior stuff...
Some cultivars are known to show a late push of new calyxes if overfertilized with P late in the game,... Or like DTC says, some shoot out waves of blooming as a normal behavior...

Right now, the Early Bluebonic x Critical Sour is doing some odd late stacking on what's otherwise compact bud construction I can't account for it in any waym she's OD's in cool weather and only light feeds at the end here,... ready in a few days I expect! So those bits I just ignore in assessing ripeness, immature calyxes are not much of a plus in my book...
The DOHz is doing that stacking as a normal behavior, others I've seen do much more fox'ing, a few pheno's much less like DOHz #1 did...
