Why does this picture look stupid ?
,,, because the plant is stupid
Seems to be part Willow?,,,Poplar ?
Damn thing is male, six feet wide, limbs like re-bar, and not a branch to speak of.
Unruly, non-conforming, freak,,should fit right in around here.
Welcome to the fold !

Canna you believe it ?
Been really slack on the updates.
These babies went to flower on April 26. Still in 4th week of flower.
These are buried pretty deep. Arms length photo's complete with bombers. All pictures are the same two buds -and have at least some plane, in focus.
And Foc'us, they are beauties.

Look real nice @Jewels . Any grapefruit aroma? I'm hoping to get something with a totally unique flavor and smell. I have 3 started but it's a bit late to put any outside here. The RomxKush is just starting to recover from the transplanting, and the low light levels of the t-5 to full sun. Hopefuly she'll take off and gain some size now.

They finished (5%) in 60 days.
I still have that photo bombing MF’r in the back. She is so ugly.

The grapefruit aroma is there. Not super bright “ ouch my eyes “ kinda kick.
More like the deep presence of a steamy bath-salt tub , rather than the effervescence of a bath- bomb.

Got me a male Romulan Grapefruit. He's going outside. He is a tall, lanky beast. Full on sacked up and ready to let loose within the next couple weeks.
Looks like he'll throw pollen before the other outside plants even start flowering. Gonna make sure to keep them separated anyway.
I plan on hitting the female Romulan Kush (outdoor) with a little bit to see what it brings out.
Oddly a stem rub on the Rom Grapefruits produce almost no smell. Much lighter than anything else I have going.
Wifey is complaining the Romulan Kush is stinking up her yard ahah. She didnt buy my " I think we have a skunk coming around at night or something"

Has anyone smoked Romulan Grapefruit?

C99 will go full bore grapefruit quite often. Its the closest i have found to a fresh cut grapefruit (searching for the pineapple you will peel a lot of grapefruits).

C99 is a fantastic effect and a quick finish for a sativa leaner. Fat juicy buds too but Romulan Grapefruit is supposed to make some fat stacks as well.

Kinda a sore spot. Here is the deal. I let that plant down.

It shone despite my husbandry.

Under the light leak, it produced buds while other plants reverted.
That is an attribute.

Under mite attack, it produced whilst other plants languished.
Another Attribute.

Had a perpetual overwatering thing going on, most plants lost bottom half of foliage.
Grapefruit continued to soldier on.

Had kinda a rough go altogether, resulting in a shitty harvest. The Romulan saved the day. Still gave me an ounce or two per plant. Most other cultivars were sub—ouncers.

So, while it has nothing nice to say about me. I say it’s vigor, robustness, and downright grit are tough to beat. The male I grew was one of the most aggressive I have ever seen.

Can you keep her arid ?
I still got fist sized buds of her. Given the chance, she would pull a fore-arm ( mine, not yours :rolleyes:) cola.
I could see them getting until trouble, in a sweating lodge , at that size.


Fire and flav?
This is getting into the uncomfortable territory,,, I was so pissy about the last go around,,,
,,, maybe you guys shouldnt read this,,,
Fük.
Confessions.
I did a @Uncle Rom offending, total dick, wet trim- like a butcher with a pencil shapener.
Slashing fluuf, mites and sugar, like I was shukk'n Taber Corn.
I didnt cure it.
I dint jar it.
I wander into the hang room like I am eying up side of beef. Snap off a frond and smoke it dusty.
This beast has been free- balling since Canada day. Dry as a bone, and no shrink.

I am kinda a dirty girl that way.
She comes off kinda spicy with that treatment. Also, there is a pack a tobbac a day getting smoked in there. That cant help the profile.
Cant really speak to potency. I am just as baked today as I was 10 years ago.

The buds had a deep funk. Nothing playful about that.
Really, she had everything going for her. 100% Germ. Grows like a weed. Bulletproof. Stanky. Big Yield.
I have crossed it to STP.
Never got F2 beans from her.

Give it a go man. I my wildest imagination - I corked those beans in a bottle and somehow, fate delivered delivered them to you. That would sure make my day.
Final answer ?
She deserves the light of day.
I saY- go for it.
Grow hard or send it down the line, she lies in wait, and will make someone VERY happy.
