I have about 5 seeds & am planning to try growing some plants this spring. Has anyone grown this strain? It has amazing buds that smell strongly of cherries. It has undetectable THC levels but 14+% CBD.
Parentage = Charlotte's Cherries + The Wife

Just curious how tall it gets & what other things I may need to know. I'm growing directly in the ground & a couple in pots, all outdoors. I imagine they STINK based on the buds I have. Kinda hard to find stats on some of these high-CBD hemp strains online.

Thanks!

I know someone who started a pack of those a few months ago, but this guy is dangerously retarded so I avoid him as much as possible. With luck I'll never seem him again.
Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Haha! "Dangerously retarded" is a good descriptor of some people :P

I saw on one site that Cherry Wine takes 63 days to flower, but that's about as much info as I can get. No idea on the height or anything. Oh yeah, it's described as a hybrid (indica & sativa) which was surprising. Maybe that means it won't be 12 ft. tall!

I'm growing a clone of her now for the first time indoors. Stanky and narcotic, good oil producer. The cut I have was isolated from a few acres my friend was doing. Does well outdoors and will eat plenty in full sun. Another friend planted some two gallons half way thru summer and they could be seen over his 6ft fence at harvest. 8 plants in 2s outgrew the 6x12 greenhouse and the plastic was pulled. Multiple delivery men complimented what they could see and smell of "those giant kushes out back." They were done by a competent organic gardener but i've never seen so many aphids on a plant. I'll keep this or a similar designer hemp in my garden for a while I think.

It isn't hemp and certainly not undetectable. Saw a 10 acre plot of Cherry Wine go hot.

The group of people that made them robbed quite a few people blind last year and was trying to sue people for taking clones, hah.

Small flowers, low flower to leaf ratio (i.e. leafy), 20:1 ratio consistently, good resin but not many aromatic terpenes. THC is definitely higher than "non-detectable". One of the three original breeders is with the Colorado Hemp Project. We've been forwarded some "interesting" test results that are used to lure buyers in with fantastic claims--the most common is testing shitty material that has been spiked with CBD isolate. Tests come back at 15%-20%, but all CBD--no CBDa, no THCa (or THC), etc. Caveat emptor.

Oh damn. lol. Yeah, the smell alone is insanely strong in the buds I have. Smells like top-shelf weed for sure but absolutely no head change. Test results for mine were as follows:

14.230% CBD-A
0.236% CBD
0.693% THC-A
Non-Detectable THC

That's the batch my seeds came from. I'm still planning to grow two outdoor plants in big pots...way out on the farmland where they'll hopefully go undetected. I'll be lucky if even one of them survives since I'm somewhat of a noob. But I love the strain so much I have to try. The seeds were free so it'd be wasteful to let them rot

[Anne_Fetamine]

P.S. - I'm sure they can easily "go hot" if allowed to grow too long, as that seems to be a problem with a lot of these high-CBD strains. Duly noted

interesting tell me more

[calisun]

I'm growing it now. The cut I got is sativa dominate and late to flower. It has good vigor. That's all I know right now. I will post the lab test results once finished.
