Northern Kush (NL5/Hz x Master Kush) & CBD Critical Mass

End of week 8

Plants are in later flowering stage, they dont get any food from this point, they would love some still, but even when using bionutes, Iam going to let them eat up as much as is left, because it seems we are nearly there !!

My take so far, is that theese plants are some solid genes. All the faults they went thru and still are so viable, happy, pretty and, you take a look :)
Iam simply amazed, very hard to choose favorite pheno for sure.

Iam still planing the next grow with possible strain to choose mating male for theese.
Iam taking into account some relatives like Ortega, MKS, NHS and then,
there are some strains I would love to try Indoors and plants that deserves testing - theese are G13xAffS and Devil
I could possibly plant another NKs too, but I want to try more strains and I got only one life :D
also Iam open for some HELP with choosing here !! :D

-This time I will do slightly different post, so you can compare Each plant in some ways that interest me the most.
-I can also say, that on tent opening, it is like when you open your wash maschine to hang the washed clothes, that is the smell of some fruity perwoll, relatively secure, pleasant smell.
-Photos will always be NK2 / NK3 / NK4


Main COLAs

From the shapes I love the NK2 the most now, each and every bud is pyramid shaped, counting in the smells of Juniper and Kushy fruits -> it is like Kush Heaven
NK3 is much more fruity, to be exact, it is very Sour Fruity -> Sour forest berries all the way.
NK4 oh there is our perwoll :) It is also fruity with hints of kinda cinamon, but overall, it is like Wash mashine on opening with some fruits added to the mix :D
- which one would you choose as best? for me - all are..

Some details on internodal budding

I will again start with NK2, it has the longest and bigest trichomes, yet the coverage is still not on level with the others. In filling (fullness) it is the 2nd place, on stickines it is bomb!
Next is my personal favorite NK3, which got the most sticky surface, the most trich coverage and the main stem is full of buds, every bud is in race to connect with the other, which I love the most.
NK4 is loosing in that perspective, yet not to be shame for it, still impressed with its budding, that is racing in its own way maybe slightly more on Hazy side, the trichomes are on level with NK3.
- I have to say, after looking at the photos that the buds are looking as close relatives, one looks like the others.

And lastly, we will take a look at structures

NK2 is shorter about few inches, lower branching is bit on weeker side (compared to sisters) yet it is lovely look at theese pyramid shapes.
NK3 is again winer in the structure category, it started as single cola dominant, but worked its side branching quite well, and the branches are sturdy, also 2nd best producer.
NK4 is slightly better producer then NK3 so far, one thing I dont like so much here, is that side branching tries to stick - like glued on to main stem and it got the height gain, but again, it sports other league !

Hopefully, all that gives you best possible overview of Nl5Haze x Master Kush
I think at this point we are 1-2 weeks about to harvest & Iam glad to try this strain, I will keep best 2 clones for future work !!
Great report . Gives me some ideas on a chart 🤔 for plant info. Only problem I have is that I am anything but organized and will most likely leave it until next time . However I have to try and be more on top of things in my grow. I have a tendency to be too laid back in my grow at times.
 
!!! Big Update !!!

After long choosing of partner for Northern Kush, I find out I had fall in love with the Devil :D
Also because I love Colourfull plants and I always wanted to retry Snow Moon (with Pakistan Chitral Kush, Vietnam and Yunnan in it).

I soaked 5Devils and 5SnowMoons and hope for them to get up.
They will grow outside the tent, and I will only choose 4 best compact Indica plants to get inside.

The main goal is to find colourfull male (with pinky-red balls) that I know both strains can do...
The secondary goal would be to find decent-superb Devil mother off course.
Devil's magic

This is the male side I will be searching in... Devil and maybe Snow Moon..

Now about Northern Kushes, stay tuned for some update, it will come shortly in few days I think...

And also Iam curing CBD CM :) Vaped some today, and it is Citrus blast on nose, then after inhaling for a while, it is citrusy and bit hashy in aftertaste ;) Great so far !! Just one week here and I will post in CBD category..
 
End of week 9
The smells evolved a bit and plants are becoming ready any day soon...
I think I will cut NK2 tomorow and then NK4 in next few days, NK3 will be the last. But every plant will be ready to max. midlle of week 10.

I have a feeling I will keep the best clone around for some future projects :)
ANd the one I will choose will probably be NK3, but NK2 is loking as some serious contender too.. So maybe I will keep both cuttings for future work.
edit: we will see the taste and smoke overall, then the decision can shift dramtically ! but NK3 is 100% sure thing.

Also all clones (NK2/3/4) will be passed to my friend for some outdoor.

NK2

-in real it is looking like white stuff, it is all coveredd in resin, the resin glands are pretty big with medium long legs.
- the smell is delicious kinda sweet Hazy smell with bits of fruits, quite good mix...
Overall this plant is in its final stage the resin queen !!!

NK2-1.jpgNK2-2.jpgNK2-3.jpg

NK3

- this one needs a bit more days to be in its finals, yet it is nearly there. It has most beautifull bud structures, the main bud is huge and around 25+ cm long spear. It has smaller trichomes, yet is impressive coverage !
- the smells are best, as if you put red berries marmelade in your nose, good enought to eat, maybe I will :) !
Overall best producer, and best looking and best smelling in my eyes and own nose.


NK3-1.jpgNK3-2.jpgNK3-3.jpg

NK4

- this is looking as inbetween NK2 and NK3 in the looks, more towards NK3, yet is streching a bit and the buds are not the fullest like NK3, trichomes are smaller like NK3 yet they cover the buds just great, finishing slight faster thenb NK3 also.
- smells are liek soap, sweet tropical fruity soap.
Overall this pheno can be grown stealthy the most.

So today NK2 was cut in milky - few amberish trichome head state at week 9.

The color is accurate under normal *room* ligt conditions. It is really that gold with orange pistils in contrast.

This plants trimed bud was tested yesterday and today.
And I gotta say, it is perfect... This is some creamy taste in my Vape..
The effects of cutting edge clarity for mind...

I will post more on her later, now I will wait a few days, yet that coverage is superb and the golden-to silverish-blistering colors, the buds tiny structures are so good and the material is airy, yet so sturdy ! Love it so far :)

then NK4 was next - also few amberish trichome head state at week 9,5

Got more orange pistilles then NK2, has bit hazier bud structures.
The smell is actually pretty good, the clone shootout will be hard I have a kind of feeling :)

The smells of Haze in soap with bits of fruity undertones...
This plant could be grow everywhere without notice 8)

I will post more on her later, the buds are robust, modestly harder then NK2, and trich coverage is actually pretty good. The trichs are smaller then it was on NK2, yet again the coverage is very good ! Love her too....

NK3 is nearing too.. I will let her till the end of WEEK 10 (that is in 1-2 days)

The production is best, trichomes are short and its coverage is very good, as you can see from picture using lightning..

- the fruity smells are still present, bit of masked in some cake-creamy undertones... It is very delicious.

Iam very pleased with the results of all theese phenos of NL5HazeKushes ;)
All of them are great for stealth grow so far, atleast my experience is.. Yet the smells are good and rich, they are just kind of masked as something that isnt so violent (you know how I mean) :)

Hello again, my litlle-big family :)

Just have info for you, all plants were hravested as planed, so even #3..

Will talk a bit about this NK3...

I want to share the smells, if you put your nose into paper bag, first hit is like cinnamon dought. Then transforms into fruity dought smell... That is again first time I smelled something like this, wouldnt even imagine it is possible...

If you smell more,, then it kinda transforms into color can, with fruits still mixed in...

That is for me some wonderfull smell.. To say...

Await some more photos soon, I think from 2-4 days I will be packing into JARS.. So expect some serious resiny bud photos...


Clips tests I have done so far are very promising... !

Only one plant was mediocre in smells thrugout grow NK4, it finally got some smell, now after some slow drying it is away again... I hope the jaring will ressurect the washmachine smells again...
YET #3 rulez and #2 is excellent silver looking bud !!!!

All 3 very tasty, even from litlle clips I saved for testing :)
 
Here we have a bit of NK2 that got it into bags / my way of jaring :_)

Not so loud, yet very complex hazy-fruity-herbal scents..
It smells and looks (each bud look like trichome carrier) very good..

+20220227_122957.jpg

Wait for final report, that should be done very shortly ;)
 
NK4 is jared next.
The smells are there, yet it is some Hazy-fruity smell in subtle way.
The buds are smaller in size, yet seems sturdy enought not to break in fingers.

The orange colors are pretty...

I believe this will not be my keeper, but overall, pretty decent plant, with great trichome coverage, I should say !

++20220228_171314.jpg+20220228_171236.jpg
 
Here we have Champion NK3, which will be placed in finals with NK2.
Which one will win the first place, it is not known still.

Yet i thing it will be overtime and shootout wich will define ultimate winner:)

NK2 is very good smoke, 2of3 friends told me they didnt smiled so much for a long time.. on this giggly and tasty plant they did :)
NK3 on the other hand have that pretty fruity smells, that my friewnds sought for !)

So it will be interesting again.

NK3 is biggest producer, trichomes are everywhere, the smells, and everything clearly shows this plant have something for each ;)

I know, Iam keeping you in fog...

But dont worry, I am making it 100% for myself...


I have not yet concluded what the best plant is.. I still am trying both NK2 and NK3...

NK2 is best so far, Iam waiting for more cure for the buds.. But NK2 is best because after one J, one is smilling to the world, which is what I love.. After 2nd J you are going fore some nap in a while :D

NK3 is powerfull as Hybrid, so it will left you with brain in your hand and after some 2hours it is going to the feets forr another 2 hours, then it gets out :)

NK4 is very sativa, very uplift, but it is weaker side off effects, still good plant.

__________

About the taste, it is all the way NK2 with its sweet cream taste.

NK3 is still good, dank bud, yet it is not that tastefull for me as is NK2...

__________

Iam still keeping both clones, yet NK2 is definitevely keeper of keepers.
It is great hash product. !!


Will tell more even later... ;)
 
Hello PtreeCi!

Great grow journal you have put together along with nice smoke reports! :) Great pictures too, they look good enough to smoke. Been a fun thread to follow. Thanks for sharing with us. Looking forward to more smoke reports after a bit more curing.

Longball

Share the " Fog " brother... Really enjoy your descriptions of your journey.
 
Sorry for delays.

I have a season ,,lot of work in work,,

But I will be getting the grow and smoke report soon..


Just a reminder, N.Widow arrived today, and two seeds were put in shot glass immediately :)
So saga continues...


I have so far started some 15 seeds of various strains, from which I have selected some plants to go into a tent.
Selected best looking plants:

2x Devils
1x ShitxDevil
Nk2 and Nk3
2x Snow moons
1x Sour Blueberry
and off course I will add both N.Widows

I want to find girls for clones, and off course do some seed job grow with male, I would love the NW male :-)

I will keep best plants around in form off clones for future inbreeding off selected parents...

This will be my hobby, for very long time :-)
 
dont worry " :)
I am done making test smokes :)
It is very good, pleasurable...

Just need some bud shots, before I can post results.

I am amazed
Please take a look on Clones for ´22 Mean while ;)

On weekend I will give a finish line here...
Yet there will be some progression over here, Once clones season is out and flowering begin )
