A remarkably compact yet dense and bushy potent plant,very highly resinous,as the seedbreeder says(its the flagship strain of the f dutchman seeds)"its a money maker,a honey shaker a true resin bomb".The leaves are so coated in THC that they alone can make a tremendous quality of hash.

Grower Comments: Very resinous and THC coated,sticky to touch and IDEAL for making good hash from the leaves as they are more resinous&THC coated than other strains

Member strain report/comments/Advice: This strain loves a good watering then a drying out period,then feedings in between which it just soaks up,i tried not to over do it with the water,etc as advised and it worked great.The plant is very flexible for LST methods and clones perfect(100% rate) but its the type of strain that needs to be complimented with a good set of organic nutes and soil.Show this plant some love and it'll show you some lovely returns/buds.A MIND BLOWER OF A STONE.
