How to grow JillyBean
Taste
Seb's take
Orange Skunk, Romulan and Cindy99 combine into an Indica-dominant hybrid that behaves nothing like one — cerebral and energising first, with a comfortable body high trailing behind. Citrus, orange and mango make for a genuinely cheerful nose. Overdo it and the cottonmouth arrives, but taken sensibly she's a fine aid for pain, anxiety and stress alike.
Where it comes from
TGA Subcool combine Orange Skunk, Romulan and Cindy99 here, a fruit-forward trio that behaves nothing like the indica-dominant hybrid it is on paper. The Orange Skunk brings the citrus, Cindy99 the cerebral lift, Romulan the ballast. The result leads with the head rather than the body, which is not what the ratio would predict. A cheerful cross that ignores its own genetics.
Nose & flavour
Citrus front and centre, orange and lemon, sweet and bright, with a ripe mango note lifting over the top. A genuinely cheerful nose, all sunshine and fruit bowl, with none of the muddiness a heavier plant might carry. It smells the way the high feels.
The high
A quick rush of uplifting, energising euphoria opens it, leaving you happy and full of energy; the record reckons it shakes the imagination awake, which suits creative work. A comfortable body high trails behind. Overdo it, though, and cottonmouth and a little dizziness follow, so a measured hand serves best. Bright and busy, at just over eighteen per cent.
Growing it
She flowers quickly, in fifty-six days, brisk for a plant of this complexity. Regular seeds, so males to rogue out and the option to breed on from a keeper. No yield or height figure is recorded, so let her structure guide your spacing and support. An efficient turnaround for a genuinely characterful plant. Watch her through flower and she will show you which pheno to hold.
