I'm on my 3rd Satori grow. First two were from seeds the last one are clones from the 2nd grow. It is my favorite weed to smoke - very up high but not jittery, lasts a long time. I've gotten several phenos - the indica pheno finishes in about 9 weeks, the sativa pheno in 10 - 11 weeks. On my second grow I had one plant that produced an un-godly amount of weed - the cola was 15" and about 4" in diameter - and it still had a bunch of lower branches that produced as well - that's the one I cloned. I don't know about taste - it all tastes like smoke to me. You will not be disappointed with Mandala Satori - I will always have it in my garden.
