Germination: The K2 germinated very fast, within 24hrs and 8/8 sprouted.
none of them were crippled.
Vegetative: When transferred to my NFT, growth started at a normal rate, the plants were developing big, broad, dark-green Indica leaves.
The structure is the normal Indica one, very useful for SCROG, since the plants develop many branches and stay rather short, while getting very bushy. Most branches keep up with the main growth.
Stems are very solid, for a ~4' plant the thickest stem was .75".
No problems with over-fertilizing at all, they took pretty much everything.
After ~4 weeks they were put under a 400w HPS, which made them double their growth rate for one week, until put in flower. After 4 weeks I was able to identify one male.
Flower: Surprisingly, the K2 didn't quite behave like an obviously almost pure Indica.
The stretch might have been due to NFT, plants tend to stretch a lot in hydro systems. The stretch was from about 12"-40", that includes some tying-down, they were actually ~4' at the end.
Sexing was not that easy, since flower didn't kick in until ~10-14 days 12/12, meaning no flowers at all, just stretch. After sexing, I got 50/50, one of those was a slight hermie, and actually pollinated some lower buds, since I didn't find all flowers, apparently.
Not too many phenos, there were 2 normal looking Indicas, which also were the tallest, and 2 smaller ones, with darker, bigger leaves, which also had darker and smaller buds, but way more beautiful. I think the reason was not genetic variation, but different lighting, as the taller ones had more light.
The buds developed fast, turning into hairy, shiny buds, which were very sticky.
Buds were very dense.
Towards the end the put on a red hue, maybe due to temps at night, which were rather low.
Smell was strong starting at ~week 3. It was sweet, fruity, yet pungent and not really fresh, nothing like NYCD for example, more like...piney, sour/sweet. Can't really tell.
Flushed for 5 Days, with only water and cannazym, some trace elements were also added.
Harvested in 2 stages, first time day 57, second time 59.
Trimming was ok, good strain for hash, since some buds had lots of leaves covered in resin growing out of them. Still had to scrape the resin off the blades after every bud.
When dry, the smell is lemony.
Yield:
~190g (~6oz) for 3 plants
Smoke report:
Well, what did you expect? Yes, couch lock, but not as much as one might think.
It's not that bad actually, but it makes you not want to do anything but sit down, and watch a movie, listen to music...like it for Sunday mornings, take a nap later, and when you wake up, your mind is clear.
For me, it's a good daytime smoke, not too long. A friend of mine couldn't stop laughing for some hrs, and ate everything he could find...so effects vary.
Smoke is smooth after 2 weeks curing, sometimes expansive in the lungs, not much taste though. Smell of the buds is like lemons.
It does make you stupid, I tried to count my heartbeats once, and never got past 20....
Keeps you stoned for a fairly long time, comedown is clear.
Overall Opinion:
Great and easy to grow, big yielder, strong plants, good evening smoke, very potent.
Recommended!
