I've been wanting to do a smoke report on some of HFH strains that were grown out at 45 N in northeast and finished at the end of Sept.
Just thought it a good time to get into somthing different so I packed up some Viking x B3...

I especially saved this pheno to taste cause it stood out from the other Viking crosses by having a strong blueberry smell to it.
While I was expecting the flavor of the the smoke to be berry like it tastes of rosemary/thyme or some other herb like lavender with a little berry. Very nice and excellent smell to the smoke in the room.

On to the best part, somthing I forgot about this herb since I smoked in Sept.....its a creeper. I am sitting thinking maybe I'll try another (the rocket chunk) cause I only feel mildly buzzed, and then I realized that I best sit back and enjoy. The buzz is kinda fuzzy around the edges and more indica in effect, music sounds great, very sharp which contrasts a feeling of wanting to laydown next to the woodstove.

Also got the Guerrilla Gold x Danish Passion and the Rocket Chunk for another smoke. Really dug growing the rocket chunk--rock dense, frosty w/ mold ressitance?!?!? but more on that later

Guerrlla Gold X Danish Passion--I was pumped to try this strain since I've seen what GG can do and was interested the Danish Passion since its an IBL that seems like it'd do well in my climate. The GG is a knockout early strain, but a little too heavy indica for my tastes, so I was curious to see what the DP would add to it. The plant I had seemed more GG dom, and I only had one to look at.

I didn't get much on flavor probably because my sample was popcorn, any way tastes like OK herb (5+) but maybe itis the sample and not the strain.
Potency is about a 7-8, I wouldn't wake and bake this stuff. At first I felt like it was well balanced indy/sat high, fairly clear and I started washing dishes. About 15 minutes later I started eating and now I don't feel like washing dishes at all. I never do, but a little herb usually gets me through. Definitely the GG nightime meds if effect.

9. Weeks cured [7] If known enter the number of weeks your sample has been cured. If desired repeat SSR after an additional two weeks of curing.

PHYSICAL EXAMINATION COMMENTS: very dense with high calyx to leaf ratio, alot of trichomes and frosty with some purple in there

Pipe (size-type, ie medium-glass) [x]
Joint (enter brand of papers) [ ]
Other (specify):

2. Use numbers 1-9 on descriptors that apply to the taste where a one indicates a subtle presence and a nine indicates a very pronounced presence. Delete the existing space when marking a descriptor in order to maintain the columns in alignment.

SMOKE TEST COMMENTS: I over dried the sample a little but it still tasted good. Seems like OK daytime herb if you don't hit it too hard because it has a predominately indica effect. I found it to be energetic at first then settling into a calm restful feeling. I think it best for relaxing after a day a work.

Love this part. I get there so many times with creepers and have learned to wait a few minutes. The result is often a great buzz as opposed to just getting knocked out!
