This run of U2 was surprisingly challenging with only ending with 2 girls and fighting off those pesky spider mites, but thru all that, the almost end result seems well worth the journey. I got a funky grower, unique smells and gonna finish in 12 weeks, plus I have 2 10 gallon buckets with 3 clones of each plant that's been flowering for 3+ weeks. I also have 1 more unopen pack of U2 in the fridge, so this tour will teach me things for when I run them again. Some runs are easy, some are challenging, but ALL are so much damn fun and rewarding
Challenging ok... but as long as you write that they are fun to grow out, worth it IMO. rewarding you claim, even better. stoked for upcoming smoke report on U2. but sofar a great report nonetheless.
84 days , 12 weeks tomorrow and the 2 U2 are sitting in the dark awaiting the tomorrow morning.
Taller is obviously ready both with the and the
But the self topping quad has looks that are deceiving. Using just your , she has tons of white and has plenty to go. But under the scope, it’s a whole different story I could post more of close pics, but it’s universal. These two girls are completely done and ready for harvest after a good 12 week U2 Tour.
Buds are just a little fluffy but tight. Quad has a nice funky, cologne pleasant aroma. Now comes the key finale, The Cure(double entendre)...
6 days hanging at 50-60% humidity in the dark. Cut, trimmed, jarred and right at the 65’ish% range expected, so let the burping begin
This is the Christmas tree style plant with spherical/conical buds that are nice and firm. Yielded more than expected at 101g. Expect to lose 10% to the cure, which is certainly fine. I’m not going to even try to describe aromas as it’s too soon.
This is the plant that topped itself and I call it the quad Pheno. Much more Haze traits as seen in the structure, tailing, and rocksolid irregular buds. Plant was smaller in stature so it makes sense that it yielded the # it did at 86f, still an excellent yield. This one already, or continues to have a distinct, pleasant cologne type aroma to it, so I’m really looking forward to a nice cure
30 days post harvest, so let’s do some sampling via a Sunday wake n bake:
I only harvested two U2 plants, yet they were too distinctly different phenos. This one is showing more Haze characteristics with buds structure with the protruding nodules, , as I can taste the haze in the background, but the dominant flavor is so unique. Again I think of men’s cologne in a complexed hard to describe aroma. The high is very clear, daytime sativa like.
Much more uniform, cone like bud structure. Earthy smelling, harder buds, very sticky. I took one hit and what started as kind of earthy and , ended very uniquely and hard to describe. Very smooth after only 30 days. Sticky unique buds make me want to break them up more and play with it and try to describe the smell but it’s too unique.
Nice start to the cure.
I’m kind of drifting as I write this early morning sampling, so I’d say it works and I’m off to a nice Sunday, hope you are too.
