Awesome "SH" and congrats on the bonus beans...As far as the cure goes,"all good things to those who wait"!!!:jointsmile:

[Shovelhandle]

Thanks rave
like I said, I have a little stash of BGX that I like. This 1/2 elbo will be nice. In a couple of weeks I start blooming three more NH clones that are doing very fine plus some seedlings of my fem BGX and Sweet Bud. So, I should have new photos within weeks.
I ordered some beans today as well. Blueberry (Dutch Passion) and some Mazar (Dutch Passion).

Just for being good.

I was expecting allot but wowwwwwww.These are great looking buds. Congrats and happy smoking. :stoned:

[Shovelhandle]

thanks for checking it out, folks.

I will be continuing a grow log of 3 Neville's Haze clones along with two Sweet Bud seedlings and one of my BG hybrid (feminized) seedlings. The Sweet Bud are freebee beans that I know nothing about. They are very sativa looking though. They have all been resting while I went on vacation. Now they are under 216W of T-5 and 400W MH 24 hours/day. The clones were just transplanted to 5 gallon pails today. I plan to flip them in a week, I'm thinking. As soon as I get some photos I'll begin the new log.

Be Good

[Shovelhandle]

Well after eight weeks of drying and curing the herbs have improved to the point that I can give a smoke report. Sorry I can't define these subtle flavor and taste differences but it is very decent pot. They hold their own over my other strains.

Neville's Haze (from Marijuana-seeds*nl) on the left, AK-47 from Serious Seeds on the right. ( My camera doesn't macro well at all anymore, sorry)

Both are similar in effect, taste and aroma... I guess the environment and diet are the cause of that.

Both are good, stoney one hit pot. (though I seldom smoke one hit other than 'testing'). NH often has an energizing effect after an hour of buzz. The AK is more narcotic. Eyes get heavy, difficulty concentrating on a task. A few weeks ago I thought the pot was pretty much mids but it has tuned up a lot. So for effect I'd give them both 8/10, very good. Aroma is very mild, sweet (AK a little sweeter) when you break up the bud. 8/10. Flavor is mild also 8/10. I like them both.
Smoking them together or with some of my Z10 indica is even better.
They were grown together. I had two SweetBud that both turned male but didn't polinate. No nanners were found and I carefully checked each plant on a table every other day. Inspite of that the NH has a few seeds and I've found three in teh AK so far. The results of growing out these mystery seeds has been very good so far. 100% healthy females with no visible male parts.
