This post is WAY over due! I know a bunch of you guys asked me to describe the different flavors/smells I was getting after harvesting the Alien Grenades and Lemon Alien Dawg ladies a few months ago. . . and I told you to be patient and wait for the formal smoke report. . . . well I was a little too patient with my strain reviewer and he spaced out and forgot to send me his notes until this morning when I reminded him! My bad everyone, I know you have already forgotten about those old strains by now anyways, haha!
I will refresh everyone's memory with a couple pictures for each genotype to go along with the review. Keep in mind that this review was written by a friend of mine who is a professional vintner (wine maker) and has a very sensitive pallet for organoleptic properties! His wording has not be changed at all from what he sent me. I also think it is important to note that the samples I gave him were cured in large jars by me for only 1 week before they were in his hands, and he told me they were stored in smaller nug sized jars for another 3-4 weeks before he wrote the reviews. In the future I will be completely curing the nugs myself before handing them over, like I have done in past grows last year.
