Seb's take
Black Domina, AK-47 and Orange Bud combine into a plant that smells of freshly cut grass and tangy fruit — pleasant enough, though it does not travel discreetly outdoors without help. The trichome sheen gives the flowers away before the aroma does, and the THC content follows suit. Ready by early October.
Where it comes from
Kannabia's Smile brings three established names together — Black Domina, AK-47 and Orange Bud — for a sativa-leaning hybrid with a good deal of character behind it. Black Domina lends the resin and the indica ballast; AK-47 the vigour and reliability; Orange Bud a brighter, fruitier top note. The record notes the more sativa-rich phenotypes take a little longer to finish, which is the AK and Orange influence showing through. A well-populated family tree, arranged for a lively, aromatic plant rather than a heavy one.
Nose & flavour
The record describes the nose as freshly cut grass and tangy fruit — a green, bright, faintly sharp bouquet rather than a sweet or heavy one. It is also, by the same account, a strong-smelling plant: pleasant enough, but it does not travel discreetly, and an outdoor grower will want a good anti-odour system to keep the peace. The trichome sheen gives her away almost as readily as the scent does.
The high
No effect profile is itemised in the record, so I will not manufacture one. What the make-up points toward is a sativa-forward experience — 70% to that side — which generally reads as lifted and lively rather than sedating. The record does note a heavy trichome concentration and a correspondingly high THC content, so whatever its character, it arrives with some force. Beyond that honest inference the record stays quiet.
Growing it
THC sits at a strong 20%. Flowering can begin after around fifty-six days, with the more sativa-rich phenotypes taking up to sixty-five, and outdoor plants come in through late September and early October. She is tall — up to 200cm — and returns a generous 550 g/m², so give her the headroom and plan the ventilation. That strong aroma means an outdoor grower especially will want odour control in place well before harvest. A big, productive, lively plant that makes its presence known.
