STRAIN GROW/SMOKE REPORT
Shoreline - Clone only

Lineage: =

These intelligent and educated growers before phasing out of growing, crossed this Mother with a Male NL#2 (Oasis)and these seeds were given to me. In 97 I grew out about 75 of these seeds and came up 2 great females and one incredible male covered with trichomes. The Male was crossed with my prized N.L. #5 and a clone was selected from about 35 females that were grown out. This is the only representation of the original genetics that is left as far as I know... my original sets of seeds were lost and or confiscated. I am glad it flourishes as it does B/C I was never a strain hoarder.

Indoor Flower period: = should go at least 60 + days
Plant Size/Structure: = short & bushy
Ease of Growing: (1=hard 10=easy) = 09
Ease of Cloning: (1=hard 10=easy) = 09
Nutrient Uptake: (1=low feeder 10=heavy feeder) = 05
Odor/Smell Level: (1=low 10=stink) = 10!
Yield: (1=low 10=high) = 05

Grow Method

- 1st Run - SOIL
Lighting: Veg = 1000 watt Hortilux Blue Metal Halide; Flower = 600 watt Hortilux Super HPS's
Medium: Foxfarm Ocean Forrest Potting Soil + Foxfarm Chunky Perlite
Base Nutrients: Pureblend Pro Vegative, Pureblend Pro Fruit & Flower Soil + Botanicare CalMag
Additives/Suppliments: Botanicare Sweet, Botanicare Liquid Karma, Botanicare Hydroguard, Hygrozyme

Notes: fed with Tap Water (300ppm) - started feeding nutes @ 600ppm in mid/late veg every other watering - fed with nutes every watering starting @ week 3 of flower - worked my way up - max 1300ppm - 6.3-6.6ph (ph adjusted and checked runoff every watering). I went ahead and flowered 3 moms I had in 7 gallon pots for my first run. They seemed a bit suffocated (droopy) root bound? not enough perlite maybe? I kept the ppm way low from fear of burning which led to some starvation. Shoreline is an average to light feeder, however likes some extra calmag (well calmag solved some of my deficiencies). I really did her no justice 1st run.

- 2nd Run - HYDROPONIC EBB & FLOW
Lighting: 600 watt Hortilux Super HPS
Medium: 15 x 5 inch netpots in Hydroton, per 3 x 3 americanagritech/Botanicare ECONOJET Ebb & Flow Tray w/ Bench & 40 gallon Reservoir **
Base Nutrients: 3 Separate trays (1-FoxFarm Tiger Bloom + Big Bloom, 2-GH FloraNova Bloom, 3-PureBlend Pro Fruit&Flower + Soil Bloom + CalMag + Hydroguard)
Additives/Suppliments: Hygrozyme, General Hydroponics Liquid KoolBloom

Notes: fed with Tap Water (300ppm) - started day 1 @ 550ppm (300ppm tap/250ppm nutes) @ 5.5pH - 1 week veg - bumped up 50 ppm's every week. Exact same room Environment (temp/RH) as 1st run. Buds/Leaves in Hydro are way more sativa looking then compaired to soil. Why is this?

Eye Appeal: (1=ugly 10=bomb) = 09
Bud Density: (1=airy 10=rock hard/thick) = 09
Trichome Coverage: (0=none 10=extreme) = 9.5

- Dried Bud Scent/Smell = Gasoline/Fuel, Paint Thinner, Skunk, Citrus, Sour, Fruity, Onions, Burnt Rubber-bands, Meat

- Smoke Flavor/Taste = Skunk, Citrus, Dank, Spicy

- High Description: Powerful, Calm, Relaxing, Racey, Strong Sativa qualities with a bit of Couch-lock, Can't move

Flavor Scale: (1=bland 10=flavor country!) = 07
Smoothness: (1=harsh 10=smooth) = 04
Onset Effect: (1=immediate 10=creeper) = 04
Duration: (1=short 10=long) = 06
Motivation Factor: (1=lazy downer 10=motivational upper) = 04
Indica/Sativa ratio guess? = 30/70
Potency: (1=low 10=high) = 08
Tolerance Buildup: (1=slow 10=fast) = 08
Overall Satisfaction: (1=sucks 10=best/top) = 08

Final Comments: Shoreline is found throughout Texas. The yield is average to low with my last 2 runs. Grows quite easily and can be chopped @ 9 weeks. In late flower it has a very "Strong Odor!" (Warning) Definitely one of the 'Better' smokes I've had up to date, a true "Skunk". A roadkill skunk? No, more like gasoline and skunk.
