Black Beard #1
(Pirate Sweat x Biker 81)
View attachment 5426312
Flowered a couple of Karma strains previously, Mountain Bike and I was fortunate to be one of the testers for DiFrutti (Karma Genetics Limited) a few years back, quite proud my tester picture is still used to advertise the DiFrutti.
Not the biggest fan of Fem seeds but this is Bodhi crossed to Karma by Genefinder OG. Great strains x large hunt = fire.
Popped 4 Black Beard beans and flowered in 1.5ltr pots of soil in a 2x3 under strip LED’s. I run a 4x4 for my normal harvest but love looking through a few seed at the same time. 2x3 had a few weeks veg, then 12/12 then to 11/13. Not my best run, had a few environmental issues and some absence during the run on my part but the plants still put out.
I topped 3 and left 1 au natural. The 3 that were topped responded well with strong side branching and good uniformity. Stretch was minimal, I had to stack pots in pots to get the plants level with the canopy, the 1 un-topped stretched by at least three times and had zero branching.
The nose from #1 was stand out from the start, a mouth watering deep rich thick warm hash that lingered. You could almost taste it when smelling, I like this a lot. This carried all the way through the run and after drying / cure. Buds are solid and frosty with a little fox tailing due to the excess heat at the end of the run.
#1 tastes just like she smells. Inhale is a mouth coating deep rich hash with a hint of leather and the exhale is deep rich hash with defined kush back end. Moreish as hell, don’t want to stop smoking but she’s narcotic and hits hard and fast. Mind, soul and body are hit, eyes are heavy and red, perfect night time knock out smoke.
#1 would be a keeper but I topped a little early and the clone didn’t take, reveg isn’t looking great either. So I’ve popped another 4 Black Beard beans (full moon), see if I can find something close to this #1 or better.
Will update with what I find from the other 3 Black Beards once smoked.
