Yeah im looking forward to trying the tahoe compared to the fire im used to. Yes this is po tahoe og. Their cut appears to be official (like referee with a whistle). It stacked harder than the fire usually does. Im happy with it. Im sad the uk is unstable its actually really great smelling i cant wait to taste it. Pure funk smell. Almost like rks. Skunky body odor smell. If a skunk could have a sweaty armpit, thats what i imagine it would smell like ha.

Other cuts in the DWC

Other cuts in the DWC

Buddha Cheese (looking like a different structure than im used to seeing after running this strain 3+ years):

Amnesia Haze (stacking hard and faster than usual):

GDP (not getting much light because it stays so short, however, the leaves turning yellow issue wasnt really a problem this time. i kept them farther away from the light on purpose and it seemed to help a lot. they also got lighter ec then i ran in the flood and drain from the start. looking happy):

You too! I really like the tahoe, gotta be honest though after running their, petrol, earthshaker, fire, tahoe and their louie i must say fire so far is the best. They say it it nutrient finicky, i disagree. It has less issues than the tahoe ime. The tahoe and the fire are very similar also in end product i thought they would be dramatically different in some way. Good luck getting their fire cut though. Last time i was there (at po)i had two kids ask me for a cutting of my fire just because they overheard me talking about it and they said po always has it backordered.

what were the differences between the Tahoe and the Fire? great thread and nice job!

So far its still not a refined opinion but id say fire wins on all counts. I cant judge the tahoe too well yet simply because the product had very little time to cure. Tahoe and fire seem quite similar. Both heavy yielding extremely potent and fragrant ogs. They are both revered as the king ogs. I was always told the fire yielded far less than the tahoe. In my flood and drain i actually only ran tahoe og this past time. It did quite well. some big chunky tops. In the flood and drain the fire i think did actually yield less than if i had run the tahoe. In the dwc i cant tell whether its light placement that is solely responsible or not but the fire is just stomping all over the tahoe yield wise. The tahoe looks amazing just smaller buds than the fire. the tops have pretty direct light they just didnt stack as tight. the tahoe tastes a little more on the skunky musty side vs the fire is more on a lemony nail polish type of funk. theyre both super strong on the nose. love em. sick of ogs in general because its all anyone really cares about but i will respect the cuts quality. its famed for a reason.
