I might haven't stressed it enough, so here:
THIS WEED HAVE BEEN GROWN UNDER A 45w CFL. TAKE IT INTO CONSIDERATION WHILE READING THE REPORT.
Also, temps were constant 26-30°C, was purely organic since middle veg and had 95% milky- 5% amber trichomes while harvested.
Have let to dry in the pot while not being cut over a period of around 2 weeks.
Had a puff off some 8 Miles High yesterday and though a smoke report would be nice.
You could catch up on the grow log in here - https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=174932
LOOKS - kinda airy buds (probably because it was grown under a single 45W CFL), dark green \ brown color, thin pistils.
It was a bit premature.
SMELL - the smell came out only after getting in the jar for a day. before that it barely had a smell.
I never needed a carbon filter when growing it. (I usually need one from week 2 of flowering)
After hitting the jar for a day the buds got some smell, but FAR from anything interesting. Smells like weed.
Not fruity for sure, a bit earthy. Peppery.
After looking and smelling the buds I've rolled a small (around 0.2g, it more that enough for me with most strains) doobie and started smoking it.
Humidity of the buds was pretty ideal. The first half of the joint kept on burning and the second half needed re-lighting after each 2 hits.
Taste - this weed is TASTELESS. Nothing nothing nothing.
Smoothness - Pretty smooth but easy to over-hit as there's not taste to the smoke.
It barely expands in the lungs.
Around 4 minutes after finishing the small doobie the high started.
First thing - I got thirsty.
Next thing - I got hungry.
It felt like the thinking part of my brain went fishing.
Following things became pretty hard, and seemed useless.
After 30 minutes the high came on full power.
I sat in front on the PS2 and it fitted pretty nicely.
It had a nice mellow pain killing effect. Lifted muscle pressure and aches but not in a way that makes you feel like you don't have bones.
I don't think it would be the thing for serious pain-relief issues but for a sour back after a long day of work I think it would be a great option.
After a hour and a half and some chocolate I realized I'm hungry enough to start cookin' some pancakes.
Unlike most strains I've smoked it wasn't a hard task at all!
I made them without wrecking the kitchen. I think.
2 hours and 4 pancakes with nutela knock-off later I went for a few more minutes on the PS2 and the high started wearing off.
It was 3:45AM (don't have much to do today) already and I headed to bed.
I usually have trouble sleeping but this time it was surely easier.
I was still high when going to sleep to the high lasts more than 2 hours, but it becomes more subtle after around 1:45-2:00 hours.
Woke up this morning after 5 hours of sleep and feeling like new.
As for the potency - I'd rate it at 6.5\10.
It is not STRONG, but it surely isn't weak.
It a BIT under the average potency of what I usually grow.
When thinking about what strain to grow I emailed Manadala and asked them about the potency of the 8 miles high.
The claim it has "potency that will rock your socks off".
Well, it didn't. And it took it 80 days to not fully finish (not 65-70 days).
Hope it helped someone
