Tropical Seeds Red Afro

Greetings all, hope everyone is well. I just finished up a single seed from a 6 pack of Tropical Seeds Red Afro. Running the rest outside next year. Ran this one in a 1' x 2' x 5' clone tent using a Mars 300 Led Light.

Finished harvest weight was 3.65 oz, 80 days flowering, 35 days veg. The Red Afro could have easily flowered for another 2 weeks if not more. I grew her as a tester for this light and a small clone tent to see what results could be achieved. Next clone tent run with these lights will be a heavy yielder like my Chemdog keeper. The Red Afro is a very potent high, smell and taste. Smells and taste like oranges with honey sickles/hazy back ground. Very unforgettable cannabis. Here is the tent set up.

Here's what the Led light looks like when in use. Kinda odd and hard to get good pictures but no problem. Lots of Brown(40%)/orange(40%)/white(20%) hairs.

5 beautiful plates, 3.65 oz's of Red Afro.

Nice work the good Dr. I'm waiting on an Old Congo now - be nice to see these outdoors as they might well be trees
Anywhere near smoke report?

Budutiful

Best African buds i have seen in a long time, nice plant and nice growing as well.
Tangwena

wow impressive!

I just checked their web site its a hybrid with a Pakistani Kush that explains the denser buds, still a nice looking plant. Be interesting what the high/stone is like with the indica genes.

Thanks everyone . I do indeed have a good smoke report for all. Tangwena it is quite influenced by the PCK in this hybrid. The description of the one I finished is half of what it states.

"hit you up at first then leaves you to work and finish your tasks during the day"

I would say it's 80% Indica. 4 people smoke test, makes two of them sleepy if smoking to much. Other 2 can smoke all day without sleeping. Hard to say for sure on the smoking all day, some can some can't. However the smell is without question top three I have grown out of over 50 strains or so. Blue Og and Chemdog are the best thus far. One smelled like pure Blueberries and the other pure fuel. Red Afro smell has changed from orange to if one where to unroll a pack of life savers and you smell all the different fruits at once. Just one word comes to mind "Amazing".
