ok Everyone....seems past due but I am going to give my review of Sweet Seeds Cream Mandarine. I currently grow 2 plants at a time in 5gal DWC buckets. One thing that some people might forget about in giving strain reviews and smoke reports is the vast differences in phenotypes of the exact same strain. Cream Mandarine is no different! I got 2 completely different pheno's....one mainly sativa and one mainly indica. Total dry weight was just over 12 ounces for both combined. The Sativa pheno gave me just over 7 ounces dried. The indica pheno just under 5. I am also going to say that from my experience THESE are NOT the ONLY pheno's you will get. I only grow 2 at a time so having other's in the batch be way different is a "given".
That being said......Cream Mandarine is an amazing strain! Both pheno's were equally impressive!

BAG APPEAL: ****** both pheno's look Amazing!....everyone that saw it....wanted it!
THE GROWTH: ***** no complaints but in fairness I use AN's ph perfect lineup...makes a huge difference with auto's...especially in hydro
THE SMELL: (Sa) *** The Sa pheno never really got a strong smell after a good 4 week cure...but the undertones of oranges and mint was nice.
(In) ****** Nothing seemed to hide the smell of her!...she smelled of the ripest oranges mixed with diesel funk!!..truly top shelf smell!
THE SMOKE: (Sa)*** she was very smooth but not lung expanding.....was a bit disappointed but I prefer indicas
(In)***** very lung expanding...for most she was a one hitter quitter!!!
THE HIGH: (Sa) **** daytime smoke but don't overdue her...you will pay for it! (In)***** Couchlock goodness..aka dont make any fuckin plans!!!
all in all I was VERY happy with cream mandarine!!....a final note...if you get the indica pheno...let her go extra long and she will reward you with purple hues all throughout the bud! no cold temps needed........link to the journal and some pics
