It's funny, I didn't understand the hype. Smoked GSC a few times, first try nothing special at all. I h fired up a joint of Sour Diesel right behind the cookies and I was then content. 2nd try it was good not great, but worth smoking. I kept hearing about it and finally got a hold of 6 seeds that predominantly were GSC and over time cracked a few here and there. 18 months later I kept two. One takes 63 days and has a strong molasses and cocoa aroma I would call it. Moderate yield, another went 75 days, buds not as conical, smell not as loud, yields really well and had a spicy smell with just hint of the molasses.. Taste is hashy spice and a little cherry flavor on the exhale. This Pheno is hard to grow, needs call mag and a decent distance from the light. At the moment this and Tahoe OG Kush are my go to smokes.
Definitely a Chem type fan overall. Sour Diesel one if my all time favorite. Was gifted what was called Chemdog a long time ago, but it couldn't have been the real deal. With that said, I like the cookies I ended up with, and those I've smoked with didn't have to say a word about the taste after one time and the head is super strong đź’Ş and long lasting, super smooth smoke
