PHYSICAL EXAMINATION COMMENTS (optional): Popped 4 beans, got 3 females. There were 2 distinct phenos: 1 plant was Short Pheno, and had a sharp, acrid cleaning fluid, lacquer-y smell. 2 plants were Lanky Pheno, standing 18" taller than the Short Pheno. These 2 didn't smell like all that much while growing, but now that they're almost cured out, they REEK of Strawberry, to the point where when I open the jar it smells like candy. It smells like that one time I lost a carton of frozen strawberries in the trunk of my car, then found them and opened them on a 99 degree summer day. Like Grandma used to say, "Oh, my stars and garters!"

There's an almost Anise aftertaste when smoking the Short pheno. It's not Anise, exactly, but something sweet , spicy and airy. If you ever smoked TH Seeds S.A.G.E., that's the closest I've ever tasted to this spicy taste, not that my taste buds are that well-traveled. It's fucking delightful, much like me! The rest of this pheno is all chemical, somewhere in the petroleum area. The Lanky pheno, as expected, tastes like rotten strawberries and blackberries through and through. Both phenos aren't playing around with potency, though. It's a quick and fun initial ride, mellowing to an even-keeled stone that allows me to go any direction I like. Get something done? No sweat. Wanna veg? That works, too.

This strain was a breeze to grow, and is a dream to smoke. I think I'll go smoke a bowl now. :weedleaf: ✌️:weedleaf:
