*** COMMENT FROM GROWER ***
Beautiful tropical sativa that may be ready for harvest by the end of October.
Aroma is soft, floral, with a bit of caramel… The long thin flower spears are now shooting in all directions, so the plant feels very animated even when the wind is not blowing. A cool tropical sativa that may be able to finish by the end of October when grown in California.
