Seb's take
Power Plant and White Widow behind this one, sweet and fruity with an earthy base on the nose. The high runs genuinely psychedelic before settling into something euphoric and relaxed — an unhurried route to get there. Resin-crystalled buds that back up the reputation.
Where it comes from
Power Plant crossed with White Widow, two dependable Dutch workhorses, one prized for clean vigour and the other for resin, met at a 60/40 sativa lean. It is a sensible pairing rather than an exotic one: Power Plant lends the reliable structure and reach, White Widow the crystal and the punch. Pyramid Seeds have aimed less for novelty than for a solid, resinous sativa-leaning hybrid, and the parentage delivers exactly that. No mystery to the breeding, and none needed.
Nose & flavour
Sweet and fruity over an earthy base, an approachable, well-balanced nose, the fruit kept honest by the earth beneath it. The record calls the aromas complex and alluring, and while I would not gild it quite that far, it is fuller than an 18% hybrid strictly needs to be. A pleasant, unpretentious aroma that carries its resin well.
The high
The record leads with psychedelic, and it is worth taking at its word: a genuinely head-forward opening before the effect settles into something euphoric and relaxed. It is an unhurried route from the one state to the other. At 18% THC it has enough behind it to justify the description without ambushing anyone. Bright to begin, easy to end.
Growing it
Her height is the variable to watch: 60 to 160cm, so early observation tells you whether you have a compact plant or one that wants training and headroom. Flowering runs 60 to 65 days, standard for the balance, and the harvest lands at a solid 500g/m². The record makes much of her sparkling resin, which is fair: expect sticky flower and sticky scissors. Feminized seed keeps the pack clean. A straightforward grow with one honest question, how tall, to answer early.
