Is Spice Actually SPICEY??

F.F.

New member
Some of the first pot i ever smoked smelled very spicey, reminiscent of black pepper and curry and hot peppers.... i fell in love. ever since i have been unable to find anything close to this...

...then i read the description for spice :D

I've wanted this strain for over a year now.... and finally have the cash and room for it, and now that i'm doing more research, it seems that spice is not actually Spicey in aroma/taste????

"...a stable hybrid that no curry eater can live without..."

however everything i'm now seeing says nothing about spicey-ness?

"Spice is a fruity flavoured sweet aromatic plant.
It really is a distinct strain with its leaf traits and smell..........you may find some serious strong and acrid smells that got her her name Spice"
-by Shantibaba

"It smells like lemons," in referance to a sativa dom pheno, by gertbfrow

"THe smell is overwhelming of fruit and burnt rubber/skunk notes" by StoneyPufnstuff


So I was expecting the Peppery, Spicey, Curry tastes and SMELLS (more important to me) in these seeds ----- Am i wasting my time?

I've got some Spicey Shiva that has black pepper phenos, so i may just stick with these an pass on the MNS beans....

can someone please enlighten me?

Thanks everyone!

Whattap, FF. :D I found Spice to be as you quoted above - skunk/burnt rubber/deadstuff with 1 plant lemony/tropical on top of that. I had 3 females, 1 from walkabout.

I would recco something with haze in it if you are looking for a spicy/peppery/indianfood flavor. I had a SSH that was black pepper and lemon, and another that was incence and black pepper. My LaNinas were skunky/citrusy for the most part, but there was lots of complexity to them. Piss, deadstuff, cheese, 'spice', lol. :)

Spice beans make for KILLER weed. I'm still kicking myself for not realizing what I had with the cut I ran out.
 
I need to update my spice grow diary because I harvested my first crop of spice and MAN, this strain does not disappoint!

I'm not sure if shanti reworked the line recently but my plants looked very different than other ppl's pics. I ended up with 6-7 females and all except 2 of them were VERY sativa dominant.

Most pics that I've seen look more like the 2 indica dom phenos I got.

The flavor is undesirable. I can't put my finger on it but it seems familiar. I switched to the full Humboldt Nutrients organic line with this round and 2 other strains that I hadn't tried it with. Those 2 strains tasted so much better this time, so I feel that I got the best chance to get the best flavor. If you grow in soil go for the humboldt because it does wonders for taste.

I guess I would say kinda Spicy, but its just indescribable. I tell you this, theres NO other pot that tastes like this. I've never noticed that before.

Although the sativa doms were nice, my mother pick was one of the two indica doms. This pheno was a whopper! HUGE club like colas with more hair on the bud then any strain I've ever seen before. Heavy heavy yielder. I didnt think it would be that great because it was just so huge...but no shit it was the best tasting and most potent one of them all. This one will be perfect in a sog.

So far I've grown Shit and Spice and had a nice number of plants to work with for selection on both. But it doesnt touch my Shit mother. That shit produces the highest quality in every form. Its just almost perfect. I'd love to try the two crossed "spicyshit". But the Spice is very cool, and very unique. Its the second best strain I've grown and I'm wetting my pants with anticipation of getting a big enough place to play with the whole catalog.;)

Like I said how many strains have you tried that you can say "there's nothing that tastes like this"?

hey Gert, - what you saying? That your biggest yielding girls was also the tastiest and strongest? That's called a keeper, my friend, in anyone's book - you lucky man!

I have a friend who reckons The Sh!t is the best weed he ever grew or smoked, too.

For me, the taste of the Critical Haze is hard to beat. It can be sour but not spicey. (I am really into that pot. It just has something of the West Coast about it...)

I suggest Nev's Haze for pepper and spice.
 
sorry, guys - I didn't mean to bore you by banging on about the Critical Haze again...I know I'm dull but when you love something...you just love it! Know what I mean? Totally taken...
 
sorry GS,

you mean "I AM" not I'm.:eek:


pot kettle black! comes to mind?.:rolleyes:
