Well as some of y'all may know i have a thing for Strawberry Diesel, and appreciate what Fractal Genetics has done with her. In the last few years i have grown, thanks to Ganesh, his F2, F3, and IX versions, along with a few crosses. I lost my F2 keeper a while back and have missed her ever since. Finally i have decided to pop the few F2's i had left, and I am here to report my findings.
Two females made it to the flowering room. They are on day 23, and I am loving how they are shaping/stinking up. In particular, one gal has that familiar astringent nasty smell that i miss in my ole f2 keeper.
She is up first. Hard to photo, but she has 8 tops and 7 of them are about equal in size.

this next gal looks to lean towards the cough, she smells sweet and has stayed fairly compact. Again even harder to photo than the last, as this gal is sitting between my two layers of trellis.

Ganesh many thanks for these freebies which you shared with the IC community years ago. They have brought many smiles.

Love your Strawberry grows, dude. Looks promising!

Thanks for stopping in Dramamine. One of these gals is already shaping up to be something special. Its amazing to me that more folks don't grow Strawberry Diesel..

looking great, and i hope you find your strawberry keeper again.

im about to throw 6 strawberry diesel 99's into flower, excited to see what i will find.

yourcorpse, those strawberry99 sound delightful. Hope they turn out to be something you keep around.

Each day these SBD are looking better and better. My attraction towards the short and fruitier one is growing as she grows. and the other, oh my oh my, she just might be what i have been after.

Silly that i was looking for a particular F2 pheno in the F3 and IX seeds when i had a few F2 left. Though i also have an F3 that is about to fill a room..

And great genetics also

Cheers!!

So you like SD Inre, I think I understand why since a little while.
I hope you ll find what you are looking for with these girls.

Thanks Tommy, i have always found Strawberry D to be a very forgiving gal. She tends to be happy getting whatever everything else gets. When she is on her own reservoir she likes to eat pretty heavy i have found.

Maxi the sentiment is appreciated. One of these gals, the one favored at the moment, has the same chemical astringent with a touch of sweet diesel in the background scent, that an old love had back in the day. She grows spears and although she did stretch a bit, not too much. My old keeper was a stretcher and was always giving me height/heat issues because of it. I remember thinking, "if only she stretched a little less", well maybe this is the one. If she ends up looking anything like your CJxSBD i'll be stoked

Always a pleasure Dan. Are they the F2 version or one of the later ones? Can't go wrong, just wondering.. Ganesh has always had a keen eye for selection.
