46 days today under cmh lights 11 on, 13 off.
whatever you say man but Rez NEVER released a sdibl till years after the Alpha so obviously The cut I got from Chaco is not SDibl
I just got the AJ cut recently and should be flowering it soon. My impression so far in veg, it’s got some skinny toothpick branches. Lol.
This is from Rez in one of the Alpha Diesel threads...
"Alpha is an inbred Sour Diesel seed. In order to make Sour Diesel seeds,with only, initially, the ECSD Clone, I needed (and used) a chosen (out-cross) Mom, then I back-crossed and in-crossed (while testing, testing, testing!) and selected-for-traits into a full-blown inbred line with the Sour Diesel Clone as the base. The seed line called Sour Diesel IBL. Many different selections have been made over the years in an effort to "tweak" Sour Diesel and actually improve it-not to just try and "copy" the original clone. The original SD clone has a tendency to be very light and (depending on methodology) nutrient sensitive-for Maximum Results,you have to really "dial-in" the Sour Diesel Clone. By selecting against these traits,one hopes one would be able to improve the line. In the case of Sour Diesel, I know it to be true. Alpha Diesel is some serious "diesel" genetics,and it's fairly "bottlenecked" in its pedigree towards all the sour diesel favorable traits. I'd not recommend in-crossing it, from My Notes, but as an out-cross parent in a Project, against a good solid indica, it's a good, safe bet to recombine exceeding expectations." Alpha Diesel was first strain which i smoked from Rez and i remember this day very well- taste was little bit lemony for sure but maybe 5% total - so not dominant
Anyone know what cut I aquired in Pueblo in 06 or 07? I was given in by an overgrow member as sour d. The finished product looked identical to ecsd pictures in high times around the same time. Some people around town also called it dogpatch desiel (named after the neighborhood they were growing it).
That is the one I cannot find. Here in Michigan I have not smoked the same cut. Most have barely resembles it. It was a tall stretchy plant, finished 11-12 weeks. Loose looking clusters of buds that were actually denser than the appeared. The flavor was hard to describe. Almost like earth or soil on the inhale and then something magical happened and it changed into this sour unidentified citrus fuel type taste that at the time nothing even remotely tasted anything like. At least not in my circle at that time.
I have noticed hints of it in several different strains. The closest was a rez ecsd but it was weak in comparison and I only had one female plant.
