Minor warning about La Blanca

[Old_SSSC_Guy]

So cool to have the forums back!


Got a Kannabia La Blanca freebie from the Attitude and it grew well. Only problem is that it was the stinkiest plant we've ever had in any room. The one 6-foot La Blanca stunk more than the whole room of 30 heavily flowered plants!

We added 2 new carbon filters and STILL the room was stink-o-matic to the extreme. Has that thick, oily stink that lingers in the air for hours. I thought it smelled wonderful - but not a half-block down the street from the grow.

Wonderful strain, robust and healthy plant. Just watch yourself come flower time!

Man, I can smell it all the way over here.

Holy Hell,

I was about to start germinating my freebie La Blanca....I live in an apartment. I may be a legal grower with a carbon scrubber, but I'll save that seed for when I live in a house.

Thanks for the heads up!!

that's awesome news! The aromatics are an important factor for me whilst strain hunting. LaBlanca is part of the pedigree that makes up the Mataro Blue...yeeehaaaww!

I've heard lots of folks talk about smelly plants, but I have not grown ANY plant which stunk as much as La Blanca. In a room of 30 other plants it was the only thing you could smell - and no way you could miss it. I loved it but the security was just not workable. Even the bravest carbon filters tremble at the thought of La Blanca! (smile)

Shes been on my list for awhile now... guess shes gettin bumped down bc of the stink factor...

How did she smoke?

 

[Old_SSSC_Guy]

Excellent smoke, tasted like it smelled. Thick, robust, oily. However it was in a 4-5 strain grow so I did not properly evaluate the buzz quality. I was in 'carnival midway mode' where you smoke a little of this and more of that and a smiggen of the other. Not a good way to properly judge a smoke but a heck of a lot of fun... heh...

Even more than Williams Wonder?:hubba: :holysheep:

I was in the room farthest from the front door cutting up a bud of WW. My wife comes in from shopping and yelled "I TOLD you not to smoke that $h1t in the house"!!

On the other side of the house and all I was doing was cutting a bud to roll and smoke in the backyard. This was in 1992 and the Williams Wonder came from SSSC.

The only reason I can grow now without :angrywife: :hairpull: :hitchair: is the strain I'm running has no smell till the chop.

BTW, how was the Satori with the smell factor? I'd really like to try it.

buddy, there was no comparison. back when i bred Williams i did not know about carbon filters. my whole house stunk of weed but no one really was aware of the odor like they are today, so i got away with it.

but even the frostiest room of WW could not hold a candle to that ONE La Blanca plant. that thing was very cool, but dangerous at the same time. it was staggering. smelled great to me and i wish i could do it again.

right now i have two Williams Wonder plants going - one male and one female. they were damaged really bad and i am trying to get them alive enough to either mate or clone.
