twist around
NSK 1-5 have been harvested and initial cure for long term jar storage is occurring. I have been able to sample all five and to generalize this strain is very pleasing so far even at halfway point of finishers. Description seems completely accurate relative to time and genetics and I recommend the NSK for sure if you do not mind waiting a bit on finish. Numbering was based on finish time. Click thru a few times on pics if you want full resolution.
NSK1--fastest at approx 80 days. not much smell but NL reminiscent. Smoke is a bit harsh, similar low flavor but indica dom with some dankness. High is to the relaxing side but you are quite alert.
NSK2--chopped at 80 days as well since noticed some hermie male flowers. It has the heavy purpling and seems more skunk sided. sampled on small bud, it has skunky. hashy flavor, smoke is pretty smooth. high is strong and a bit disorienting. reminds me of mosh or other similar strong purps.
NSK3- Went about 85. Did not pay much attention to this one during grow as it was nondescript but she has certainly caught my eye, possibly sleeper pheno (as in dark horse running!). The floral structure is haze like and the smell is as well but in a way more generic to strong equatorial sativas. possibly thai or brazilian it has that lime green look and taste. smooth but expansive smoke that delivers a very excellent high that leans toward the euphoric but still all is well. really like this one
NSK4--Approx 88-90 days seems similar to number 5 in profile and smells but there are subtle differences. This one has minty pine flavor but with an acrid undertone, smooth semi expansive smoke is easy on lungs. The high is great blend of focus and up mood. Probably not the best for late night.
nsk5--Approx 88-90 days, has a more spicy flavor, but also minty undertones, smooth and easy smoke. the high is very nice as well, I would say it and number 3 are my favorite so far.
So yes, still 5 to harvest probably another 7 days left on those as will be close to 100 days flower at that point. Here is group shot of 1-5 and will update the others in a couple of weeks.
