Well, I got 2 free seeds. I had good success with my first one, so I grew the other as a mom. Both plants had the same phenotype.
My first 3 clones are done, and amazing.
This plant is a long flowering plant - mostly sativa - all 3 were harvested at 13 weeks, although I could have probably harvested at 12 weeks. Do not let this daunt you - I don't know how it could not be worth it.
Here is my personal set up:
I planted my clones using a modified recipe #1 from Burn One's organics for beginners. (I'm sorry that I don't know how to add the link.) I only supplemented with molasses - water only, no EWC added for the entire grow (I might add some next time.)
I vegged for one month and then transplanted the clones from a 3 quart bucket into a 5 gallon bucket and immediately put them into bloom.
No pruning.
7 or 8 plants total (depending on how they fit) shared space under a hortilux 1000 W HPS bulb.
No CO2
Average room temp during the day = 72F
Average humidity = 55%
Spider mites
How the plants grow:
These plants are short (about 2 ft) with a ton of branching. Although I did not do any pruning or training. 2 out of the 3 clones look like I FIMed them, but I didn't - I'm just not that good.
Heavy, huge buds. I had to tie up almost every branch.
The aroma is sweet, but subtle. It smells like candy. This would be a good one to grow if stealth smell is important.
She loves water - uses at least twice as much than my other strains.
She is naturally resistant to spider mites! I have had spider mites since April. I don't spray with chemicals. I keep my room cold and moist. I manually defoliate leaves as they get infected. I use water in a flomax pump sprayer to quickly "wash" my plants every day. And, I am lucky enough to have a second quarantined bloom room for the most seriously infected (all my cheese plants, booo). Every one of my 30 blooming plants are infected except...drum roll please: The kandy kush X skunk!!!! Not one leaf showed any evidence of spider mites in the entire 13 weeks in the room.
Yield: In the pictures below, the plants yielded 3.8, 3.8 and 3.4 ounces respectively. Amazing! With the smoke so great; I will be growing this strain for a long long time.

Harvest fun!:
Now about the bud:
Very pretty salmon color haired, very frosty dense buds. In fact it's density is 1.37 times as much as my other strains:
Here are some money shots:
With trichs like that, it has to be good.
The high:
First off, my tolerance is HUGE.
I rolled a 0.5g joint and after 1/3rd, I was noticably high. Half way through, I forgot I was smoking and the joint was out. These were the first impressions: Strong, blissful, clear/functional, body relaxing, mellow and social. But after 45 mins, I forgot I was doing a smoke report. I started again, and forgot again, so maybe wandering mind is more appropriate than clear/functional.
It is long lasting (one hour, 15 mins went by before I had a touch up hit...just one and I am flying again, now at 2 hours).
The taste is sweet and smooth, however I don't think my palate is very good at this -it is subtle.
This is not my go to bag though. I love the taste and high of cheese, it is my favorite. I love the taste of super lemon haze, and find the high similar to the Kandy Kush X Skunk - it is sublime, so I go to the lemon first. I like LSD a lot too. It doesn't seem to have a ceiling to me, and can get pretty trippy. But overall, I give this plant an A, maybe an A plus.
Hope this helps someone. Peace out.
