I have 6 females & you will see them
keeping any cuts to try again after the analysis is in ,, ??
Unfortunately I did not just because I’ve been cramped for space and I lost my clone area ...it doesn’t mean I can’t re-veg any of these sisters .... here’s another phenotype a little bit squatter ,but you can see the similarities ...extremely uniform plants & are going to yield well...Don’t forget I have two other tester packs from you

remembering the first shots with the fat leaf its quite clear they have a good dose of sativa in them now given the stretch ,
and as we expected the leaf has thinned out somewhat since ??

Definitely looking more sativa than the veg pics with the wider leaflets.

When it comes to identifying and describing aromas im not so great but thus far there’s a “sweetness” 
& no funk

That's a nice pheno. Any spice to them. Im the same with aroma description. Just the main smell is all I can relay.

ill third that ,, lol ,
im also not great at describing aromas ,,
particularly complex ones like what we see with the haze hybrids ,
im sure as the smell matures more will come of it ,
putting a name to the smell seems to be the hardest for many of us star ,
im unsure if that talent comes naturally or its learned,
either way i haven't mastered it like i see some folks on here have done ....
Not everyone has as good of a sense of smell than others but there are few tricks to it. Here’re few tips:
- Don’t smell your plants after heavy smoking session (cannabis or tobacco) cause this can affect your ability to smell. Alcohol and spicey food will have an affect on that ability.Allergies and flu will mess things up too, ofcourse.
- If you’re conna smell lots of plants, stepping outside for some fresh air once in awhile will help you clear your nose. Some plants will make my nose run abit which will mess things up, some more than others.
- if you’re indoors try to take the plant out of your flowering room/tent if you can to a place where there isn’t much air movement to blow away the aromas. Maybe allow the plant to sit for a while in still air before you start smelling it.
- smelling your plants awhile after watering them may give out stronger aromas.
- How fast you draw in air thru your nostrils; try smelling them “normally” and then allow air move thru your nostrils very, very slowly
- make a “cup” with your hand while your holding a bud in it and have a sniff; “normally” and very very slowly. You will pick different layers of the scent.
- Try different distances between your nose and the bud. Don’t let the bud touch your nose if you’re gonna smell more than one plant
- smell the bud before and after giving it a little squeeze to break some resin glands at different distances
- rub some resin glands with your (clean) finger and take a sniff …wait awhile and smell that finger again ..and wait awhile and have another sniff; you may pick different layers of aromas as they keep fading away. if your gonna smell more than one plant use a different hand/finger. Don’t touch your nose with that finger just smell it.
For plants in veg:
- The aroma of a seedling/plant continues to develop as it matures even after a plant has showed first preflowers in veg. Many times aromas are more complex after 60-70+ days in veg or on a cutting than when they were 30-40 days old seedling.
- Being root bound/stressed/dried out will make plants smell bland. They will start smelling stronger after you re- pot them to larger containers
That’s about all I can think of right now.
oh very good tips , thanks for that goatcheese ,
the only thing i think that could be added is building up an aroma library in your brain somewhere ,
i notice some folks have a better one than others and can liken an aroma quickly to something else we are all familiar with ,
ie meat , leather , floral etc ...

Great growing star crash....looking really nice.
Donald you've done a really good job with these....looks like star crash is going to end up with some big tall bud totem poles wen done.

thanks darkie ,
but most of the work was done before i did the easy part and crossed them together ,
doesnt take a huge amount of selection with already worked things like those ,
still i think they will be appreciated in a few gardens , which is the main thing ...
