Around 8 weeks and the plant is looking nearly finished. Sweet cider/apple smell is still there and backed up by a more kushy leathery smell with elements of bubba. This plant also seems to have shrugged off a few thrips and possibly a few mites towards the end of the grow better than the rest - the cleanest plant in the cab.

Hi all, this has been chopped, dried and jarred for a week and it is smoking well. Smell is very unusual.. kind of both a perfumed 'fresh' apple smell as well as a cider-like funk, with with some kushy funk in the background. The apple smell is already transferring well into the taste, again very unusual, a new one on me for sure. High is heavy indica and quite potent.. at least as potent as straight bubba.
i'll be sending some stock of this to seedbay and breeders retail next week.

thx VG, the first one is done, the last two I think is around 8 weeks, the terps smell good and are wet greasy, im just chasing the green out now. I did try the first one , it works well to the bubba high side....... they were all fun to grow. thx for entertaining me with your creation

my pleasure js ! love the look of all that greasy resin! sounds like we have some differing terp profiles coming out too... You mentioned a pine/lemon smell, mine had unmistakable apple/cider terps (which is what the X18 was known for) were all your plants very similar in smell or did they vary?
