You got it Don. Sweet Seeds.

I took a bud along to show my mate at the Grey Area. There was a Dutch grower there at the same time...a chocolope supplier! So i was letting my old china smell the samples, and this guy was also sticking his beak in. He smells the BJ and is like, POWER PLANT!!! That's power plant! he shouts. I am like, whatever bro, its Blackjack from Sweet Seeds. Which he replied, anything with those strains comes from Power Plant....(people are obsessed with PP in Holland - everything seemingly is crossed with it.)

My opinion. The BJ buds are big old girls, 2x or 2x the size of an OG nug (but the same weight!!), very heavy trich covering (long skinny trichs), sweet smell and taste...although the taste is not massively strong. But my jar smells like Jam Rolly Polly (if anyone ever had school dinners you'll know what I am talking about) I would say it's just above average smoke for a 10+ week strain.

dude ill eat my hat if blackjack has any ppp in it. the dutch are crazy folk man lol

I know, I ignored him after that......he's one of those dudes that loves to stand behind the counter like he is the shiznit, casting his eye over everyone that comes in! Like growing Chocolope is the hardest thing in the world, ffs, I heard you just need to light yer joint and it's growing. Kinda like someone who hangs around a DJ booth and eventually is in the DJ booth, but isn't DJ'ing..just a fekkin Hinger Oan!!!
Anyhoo's the dunt from it seems good. Would be a def good strain for commercial selling (bag appeal, crystally, etc) Just not enough dunt in it for my liking.

BTW. Also for your info - I haven't smoke a lot of the Cali Orange, but when I do, I tend to want to be close to a couch.

hahaahah pot snobs are everywhere man lol im guilty myself, i looked at a pals bag he'd brought last night and it was utter gash, no smell, or crystals and mostly stalky & underdeveloped. a lot of folks are scratting round trying to find anything decent lately.

aye id have thought it would have been pretty top end in the face dunt stakes being jack herrer and black Domina.

Ive only had a tester of the popcorn of the cali O, nice pleasant smoke not too strong and plenty of flavour

Yeh, I think that is the point that a lot of Dutch growers are making. A lot of the Jack Herer isn't JH, it's PP!!! Which is beleivable in a way, we were growing Jack Herer back in the 90's in chilly Scotland, and the stuff you get in the coffeeshops around here is no where near the quality of that stuff. Although when I went into Sensi Seeds the girl was adamant that the Black Domina Seeds are the originals!!! Ah well, each to there own.

yeah i heard that the remake of the herer is no where near the original as usual haha

all i know is it looks dank, and as they say walks like a duck talks like a duck well fuck a duck

Well just a brief update because I was in having a fanny around in the grow room. Checking out my Blackjack disguised as a NY47, few bud shots of her to come. She should be coming down in a week or so.

Also picked up a carbon can today. CAN9000.

First up BJ nugs.




So pics of a Headband for you all. (the one that needs to be moved for the time in motion!! This is a clone of one of the girls I have outside in the greenhouse, who is also flowering now. Quite funny that this clone is further ahead in the flowering stakes though!! Ah, the piss poor sun of Northern Europe!!



And here's one of the Thelma Clones:





And me can...not very exciting, it's a can after all.


Will drop a few porn shots of what I am smoking in a bit....

Peace, DST

oh, and the current grow is coming up to 3 weeks flower for the HB's.

Nice HB man, and the others too Coming in nicely! Now ima go cuz in a lil I'll be in a documentary sort of...LOL! I just got called up from one of my brothers freind, and he asked me if I'd like to be in a documentary wich will go on national television this fall What I'm gonna do is sit in th back of a minivan and converse w a total stranger for 25mins then they will drop me off and thats that...

Should smoke a doobie before?

Welcome Sir T, What would you like this evening, some of my personal favourite's perhaps, The delicious musty and old school OG Kush, or perhaps the stankoid Thelma Headband cut, with a delicious joint flavour from spark up to spark out, feel those diesel and sour flavours of the incestuous chedawg linneage coming through as the sweet smoke trickles over your bitter taste bud detectors ..... whatever. Well you know's you are welcome anytime old part's!!

Yup I'm back! I can't reveal too much but the documentary is like a "time print", a snapshot of the time we're living in, unscripted. I can tell you I met a man who's around 55-60 and who's been brought up and lived in the same city since birth, same as I. We had a giving conversation that started off right as he got in the van, I was there first Rode around for 20-25mins then we got dropped off and the "van" then went off to document another conversation between another two random persons and it will be on national TV this fall.

The "director" said afterwards that he got soem good laughs during our conversation, I was stoned and on fire...hahaha!!! TV HERE I COME!

//PEACE PC
