SeedBank : Cream of the Crop
Strain: Cropical Fruit Auto
Did it autoflower?: Yes 24/0
Soil/hydro: John Innes #2 approx 10.5ltrs
Nutes: Maxicrop with Sea Kelp around week 3. Then PK 13/14 weeks 6/7. Top shooter week 8/9ish. 2 weeks ish cleanse at end.
Description: An attractive plant. Wants to stretch and I had to work to LST it. She grew into an elegant plant about 60cm tall by 40cm wide. Noticeable very long thin pistils.
Light (kind and schedule):
Twin Sunmate CFL 1 x 250w ‘Blue spectrum’ bulb 1 x 250w ‘Red spectrum’bulb was on 24/0 throughout the entire grow. The reason for this was that temps external to the tent fell below freezing at times during weeks 1-4. Worked light closer over time. 18” at germination down to 1.5” from tops of plants before harvest.
From seed to harvest date: 99 days from seed
Dry Yield: 45g smoking grade bud. 15g popcorn that went for hashish.
High/Effect Duration: Deceptively strong and dreamy. You can be away in the clouds for quite a while.
RATE SCALE: * bad to ***** good
BAG APPEAL: ****
The well developed buds have really tight nuggets. These buds look very peach/orange because of all the pistils. The nugs hidden beneath are green glazed with very fine crystals. Less well developed buds more airy.
THE GROWTH:****
Grew well. Stretches and more difficult to manage with LST and get an even canopy. Needed 90 day plus grow time.
THE SMELL: ***
During early cure it smelt strongly of Cheese/Catpiss. Not to my taste. Now it’s cured more into a more orange taste. This strain is sold on its taste/odour and for me that has disappointed.
THE SMOKE: ****
Burnt well in a head. Soft. Can take big hits.
THE HIGH: *****
Dreamy daze. Bit easy to get lost.
Summary: An attractive plant that grew me nice amounts of good strength weed, which has a very dreamy quality to the high. However it is marketed on its taste and it hasn’t lived up to that for me this time. I will enjoy my smoke but not grow her again. I prefer the Dinafem Fruit which I will regrow, they seem to to have very similar physical characteristics but she impressed me much more with taste and odour.
