This is from Sensi Seeds. Supposed to be a pure Afghan indica by way of crossing two different Afghans together, to get hybrid vigor I guess. This is a veg shot. This strain stretched a lot in veg altho I had the light up off it as far as I get get it, so the other Afghan strain(Ancient Afghan) would reach up, as it was staying real short. Here are a couple of the MLI in flower. A bud shot.

This was a hardy, easy growing strain with dense buds. I think yield would be average. I had nanners on all the plants, but I also did with the AA strain so I think something was wrong with my grow. I did not get seeds from the nanners btw. I dusted the lower buds with male pollen and got a bunch of seeds that way.

I had had to throw away a plant as the thrip shit was so thick, best plant too, close to a oz.

I threw away lots of buds from the other plants as well. Still, I have 2 or more ounces of good buds. I had pinhole light leaks and took off the light trap on the tent as I thought the mostly dark room was not anything to worry about. Well..... I had 100 watts of LED overhead and 165 watts of pl-l vertically in a 2x2x5' tent.

Next time I will use the Hot Shot a bit to keep the thrips at bay and not throw away close to half the harvest. I will also tape up the tent and put the trap back. I let one of the plants go to 90 days along with the AA plants. I think the light issue affected the flowering time. The others I yanked at 75 days.

Onto the smoke report: This is a moderate strength strain imo, with really good anxiety relief and mood elevation properties. A 7 or 8 out of 10 for potency. I had heard this was kinda weak stuff from several here, and see how that might be the reaction. This stuff does not hit you between the eyes after a toke. It is a pretty mild effect all the way through, altho I have gotten pretty ripped after a toke or two a few times. The body stone is not real evident and quite a clear high for a indica. There is basically no comedown from the high and no groggy type feeling. I find this high adjusts my mood up and tends to mellow me out, without a lot of body high or mental disruption. 1.5 to 2 hours high duration. I smoke a lot of this compared to others I have tried. I usually just smoke once in a day, but with this I hit it 2 or more times in a day or night.

I guess that is a good sign.

The way I describe this, it almost sounds like a sativa, but I can sit still with this stuff and chill late at night when I mostly smoke. It is also good for activity or daytime, not just a couch kinda thing by any means. I got a lot of work done while on this and did a lot of computer gaming too if that counts as activity.

The smell of some of these buds is unique, incense or spice kind of smell. I have only smoked buds off one pheno so far and that is not real spicy like that, and the smoke has an ordinary taste of pot to me.

I have to thank DS. Toker. MD for helping answer my questions concerning this strain and recommending it.
