It appears to me just to be a slight mutation or irregular formation, similar to what cancer does to cells in some sort I suppose.

this is a genetic trait I knew with my emeraude#1 (circa2008)
all the heads wears that trait. it's not a viable seed, not a mâle flower but a femelle flower with no calyx but only the future seed even if she met no pollen.

Thanks for the hints... this otherwise excellent OE pheno got me somehow stressed.
I have to say that from these regular OE freebies (3/5 fems), I got some interesting stuff : one is the weirdo above, the second looks more sativa and is the only one in the room that looks constantly heat stressed, and the 3rd is a dwarf. Can't wait to see how it does outdoors in my friends gardens.

I am in the process of harvesting 4 OE and one of them has really caught my fancy. This plant is so stinky that my friend who lives across the street could smell me trimming it. The strange thing is that the smell is a lemon/cat piss scent that made my eyes water during the trim(like onions). I have read almost all of the 30+ pages on this thread and never is the smell I am experienced mentioned. The other 3 OE's have the fruity/incense smell that has been mentioned several times. This plant was also one of the longer stretchers out of the bunch.
Dubi , do you have any insight into this? Still waiting on it to dry, so I haven't smoked it yet. This was by first experience growing Ace and I'll definately be back for more. Thanks!

Really happy with my Orient Express! I've got one awesomely stoney pheno and two sativa ladies, but it's the squat, high yielding stoney pheno which I'm really loving. Great playful, giggly weed that's a bit too strong for social use. No paranoia or anxiety, great for watching clouds. Thanks Ace for breeding such a great strain!
Bangi Haze and Panama being added to my collection next.

Hi rDn,
Very few ACE Seeds releases are 1:1 type of hybrids, most of our strains have been bred at 'family level', using different lines and different parental plants.
In the case of Orient Express, we have standard and feminized stock from the taller and longer flowering Vietnam Black phenos, the very compact and super high yielding sativa floral pheno and also from the more hashplant indica chinese pheno.
Usually the different lines are offered altogether in a single Breeders Pack (although we haven't released any Orient Express Breeders Pack yet), but you if you are mainly interested in a concrete line please send us an email and we will try to find the lot that is more convenient for your taste and growing variables.
Hi clestat,
Yes, i have seen it a few times, i think it's some kind of ovary deformation, a few pure chinese plants from the first generations produced occasional strange female flowers, some chinese hybrids like OE sometimes produce it too although it's relative rare.
How was the rest of the flowering ? Hope everything was fine!
Hi Southerner,
Did you grow the standard or the feminized version ?
The Vietnam Black mother has an organic, fermented, rotten type of aroma, hence the strong smell of your plant. There were other VB females that had more lemony cat piss kind of aroma as you described, and although this concrete type of females were not used in the Orient Express i think you have found a VB dominant plant that shows this recessive trait in a very strong way.
The lemony aromas can also be found in the more compact OE early flowering and high yielding sativa pheno, this one is usually floral too, in a pleasant way, and not an astringent cat piss aroma.
Please, let us know your opinion after a bit of drying and curing.
Kind regards!
I'm glad you are enjoying yours b8man
Thanks to you for the feedback and for supporting our work!

Hi Dream Universe,
Orient Express will start to flower in the second half of August in your latitude.
It has been grown outdoors without problems up to latitude 45º, but i think it can be finished a bit more up north, depending on the weather conditions of the season.
Kali China and PCK x Kali China are also other chinese hybrids with great potential to do a good job there.

Hi Mac
If possible I would buy me an old saloon wagon and just travel the whole year through the world!
I have a long time plan: The Orient Express will be my location to celebrate my 60ies birthday with my closest friends..definitely!
I have only the best memories to the time, when I could occupy a whole compartment, close the curtains and smoke my little glaspipe filled with the finest black afghane dope...
Yeah..even shagging was quite groovy
Those where the days my friend..fuck the ICE`s
Hi guys,
Just got some orient express from a friend ( 5 different phenos ),and i got things to ask you about it...
First, (i must precise that it is from fem seeds) i got some seeds from one of the phenos, the most vietnam black, and i don't know if i can use them without a risk of hermies...will it be all females? will it turn herm surely??
And, how much curing time is necessary to develop the full potential of this buds??(or at least the minimum time to wait to not waste it...)??
Wish you all a beautiful day

Grow them out and see - that's part of the learning experience.
We got 2 phenos - both excellent. One more hearty then the other.
