Congrats on the James Bean listing, @Useful !!!! https://www.jamesbeancompany.com/shop-useful-seeds Mark one down for the good guys! If I know you, you got more up your sleeve! ;)

Grats @MustangStudFarm @Bubby'sndalab and everybody else who picked up those Dank Sinatra F2. I wanted to let you know a couple things about them. They were open pollinated, 4 guys and 3 girls, in organic soil under COB LEDs. All four guys ended up being frosty, but the two boys in back were _extra_ frosty from the get-go.

My objective in making these was genetic preservation for the community of one of bodhi's lost beauties. More than a few old heads say this one is in their top 5 for potency and strong medicinal effects.

DS is a relatively light feeder who doesn't need a lot of N. She's not slow, but since she's a indica, she grows squat and bushy. She likes light defoliation and a lot of airflow because her buds are extremely dense, but don't strip her down or you'll stunt her growth.

Although I took these ladies to day 70 to ensure the beans ripened, some phenos will be ready at 8 weeks.

As you might expect, these ladies smell dank. They're not a loud, Loud, LOUD!!! strain, but you can expect berry, mint and menthol earthy tones, with the occasional lime-leaner.

In the treasure chest of open pollinated F2, anything's possible, as shown by @torontoke finding great variation in his phenos, with an outlier cherry leaner with sativa-ish leaves. Check out his journal - he's got a few of these F2 in their 3rd and 4th week of flowering, and they're looking great!

Keep an eye on that guy because he just finished some Landos Stash F2 that might get spread around these here parts in the future. ;)
Had to bump and save this post for future reference. My Stanky Dank's arrived! Thank you @Useful and @Nu-Be. Some good dudes.

Chocolate Covered Strawberries x Fire Cookies

Notes: All grew very similar in veg. Not picky on their nutes at all...by the time they looked hungry for anything beyond the Ocean Forest I grew them in, it was time to fade out and finish up. All were Indica Dominant Hybrids. 1.5x stretch. 8 Weeks Flowering time. Could have maybe pushed them 9 weeks, but they are good to go at 8. I had a light leak, so I ended up with some seeds. It was only my #1 pheno that threw nanners, and the light was coming through the zipper I had to replace...and this pheno was right where the light got in
.
All phenos smoke pretty much the same, so I won't describe them individually. Indica leaning hybrids. All 3 start behind the eyes and move to the entire body after 20-30 minutes. Very relaxing. Something you should save for later in the day...or you'll need a nap after 3 hours. It's great to come home to, smoke, and get 1 last thing done before it's couch time. There's definitely a window for you to accomplish something productive, but it's small. The purple pheno (#3) is slightly more sedative than the other 2, but that's usually to be expected from all the purps I've had.

None of these punch you in the face with their smells. They're subtle, but once you get your nose in there you can get the full effect. Not too intoxicating from just opening the jar, but after a good grinding, the room will fill up with the smell of musty, dark, sweet creamy goodness.

Smell: Metallic, Musty, sweet yet dark and funky. Hard to pin the smell down. It's really pleasing, but definitely has the 3rd best scent of my phenos.

#2
20181120_131743.jpg
Smell: When flowering this is my pheno that smelled like froot loops. That smell has gone away and it's finished similar to #1. Less metallic, more sweet...but musty, dark with some creamy-fruity undertones. Really great smell that reminds me of a Chocolate Mint OG I've grown before, but still unique.

#3
20181120_131836.jpg
Smell: Similar to #1 & #2...The metallic smell is pretty much gone, but the musty, dark & sweet are there. #3 is probably the best smelling out of the 3. You get the creamy-fruit from #2, but it's turned up a notch.

Overall these plants were great to grow! Super easy, really beautiful fades with greens, reds, purples and yellows in the foliage. The transformation of the smells from flowering to cured were a great olfactory journey. I think it's great that they all ended up being fairly consistent. If people like these descriptions, then they will certainly find what they want! My would be keeper, #2, I will search for again once i have my new op. I wish i could have kept my clone, but with my approaching move, I don't want to push my luck. I'm definitely glad I was able to test this for you! My friends and family all enjoy the smoke. Even with some of the buds having seeds in them, I have them coming back for more! A great Indica Dominant Hybrid that doesn't kick your ass too much, but still is more than capable of giving you what you need. (a too big a bowl will certainly kick your ass though!)

WOW now that's a 5 star smoke report. Well done.
Thanks! Took me longer than I'd like to get it around...but a longer cure means a more accurate report! I've thoroughly enjoyed these plants from beginning to end. They grew like champs, had beautiful colors, finished early, trimmed easily, have great tric coverage and I just love giving it a good smell as I break it up. The only box that wasn't checked for me was the lack of a strawberry smell in the final product. That's not to say the pheno isn't out there... but mine were all fairly uniform in smell with some subtle variations.

That was certainly a fine report!!! Thanks a bunch for giving them a spot in your garden, and for the thorough report.

Well damn, I almost dont wanna report after the fine report Shmozz left. :clap:
NICE!!! What is she smelling like!!!
2 different plant types out of 4 growing. 2 purple leaf (that got purple early on), and 2 that are still green. Both green ones smell 100% citrus/juicy sweet smell at about the 6 wk mark currently. The green pheno explode with orange smell when the trichs are disturbed. Im gonna guess this to be the one most would want if chasing terps. In my limited experience with this strain it seems as though the purple leaf ones as beautiful as they get are more like a muted version of the green when it comes to the "orange juice" smell. I'll get some pics later but you can also see a noticable feed preference between the two phenos.

Here is a pic of the Blood Orange x Genius Thai Extreme grown by a member right here. I feel terrible that I didn't write down their name when I copied this pic. I'm sorry. There will be 9 packs of this available at some point at GLG....just for fun each pack has a 5 pack of Dream Beaver F2 stapled to it. Spread the love kinda thing.View attachment 4056822
Beautiful plant! Really nice picture.

Cool deal!!! The ones that explode with the orange scent sound just like the mother plant,a friend of mine has found one that smells like one of them orange creamsicles.
