Default Grapefruit - sativa 9 weeks flower
Overall id give this a 7.8 out of 10

Strain:


Grapefruit - sativa but designed for a 8 week flower rather than the traditionally longer flower period that sativas thrive in.

this is the formal write up as sold... but i think the arly write ups put people off tbh ... saying that they had 80% stability


This is new style Sativa that is early maturing, fast flowering and maximum yielding. Buds have a soft smell of grapefruit, sweet taste and intense tropical high. Stabilised on early maturity for some generations now. Plants grow up to 50 to 60 cm, when put under 12/12 hours after one week of germination.

Flowering time: 8 weeks
Harvest outdoors: End of October (UK, NL)
Yield: Maximum

90% Sativa

Growth:


Within the details the write ups you see suggest that the stability of the seeds are poor but i found them to be no problems in comparison to some lemons that i did a while back.

The growth is typically staiva in that the daily growth during the 1st 2 weeks of 12/12 cycle show around 1" - 1.5" per day.

Id suggest flowering at 12" to get a 60"inch plant maximum as the branches that grow are thin and soon need support .

I used sticks for main arms a net to support the main arms higher up, and yo yos to lift up the buds as they got heavy and couldnt support themsleves.. if you grow this strain make preperations for supporting the arms for sure.




Nutes:
i use canna A and B with rizotonic = veg phase
i use canna a and b with bud blood week 1
i use canna a and b with big bud week 2 and 3
week 4 to 7 its canna a and b with hammerhead pk

2 weeks flush just ph water at 6.3

a 9 week cycle

Yield:
i flower these plants at 20" id recomend doing it a little earlier. say 12"--18" .....plant finished at 70" tall. i took 3.5" oz per plant ( i had 2 in a room with 6 others) under a 600w HPS and a light mover.


Bag Appeal: wtf is bag appeal.. if it means bud struture etc ill do that ?

see pics.

properly cured this is a super smell and flavour so id place it high up in bag appeal. the buds low down on the plant can be poor in terms of bagging up or (Jarring as i do ) so use them for bubble hash nice tip imo the bubble was superb very fresh and wow what a hit

Smell: fresh but sour: pretty close to what it says on the tin tbh

Taste: as the name suggests the flavour is that of a bitter sweet mixture. its a great taste to have in your collection if you a fan of the taste over other parts. its turpine rich and when properly cured (seems to take its flavour in just 2-3 weeks tbh but 5-6 its the best imo) its just superb.

The High: Typically mixed in a body stoned that settles in the chest and a buzzzy high in the head that is bigger than the bidy buzz. Very powerful trippy/hazey stoned that is long lasting in comparison to some.

Comments:

As with any strain i recommend dropping the humidity to 20-40. Really bings out those trichomes during the final phases.


Yeh i like this strain and would recommend it to sativa fans who know who to properly handle a girl who develops in this manner.

do not let the write up in the details put you off,,, whoevre wrote isnt very marketing savey are they lol .....

its a good tasty smoke that smashes you in the face in lehmans terms .. really wobles you up top and the body is a buzz not a body flop :



I have pictures

but i had sweet tooths in that i was concentraing on so there are just a few sorry

im doing the sweet toth report next so youll see some better quality then

hope you enjoyed its my first attempt for you lot so dont be to harsh

Not a huge Sativa fan myself, but I do enjoy grapefruit, a damn good smoke! Bag appeal is wat ya think, are the buds dense, tight, tasty, good aroma, everything we look fer in a bag.
+Rep fer this, especially w/the yo-yo trick! It's an oldie, but a goodie!!
