SMOKE TEST COMMENTS:
Taste:
Tall pheno: little taste
Small pheno: tastes how it smells, intense fruityness that makes your mouth water
Effect:
This stuff gets me stoned. After a few bags and (10 minutes later) you it gives a heavy/pressure feeling behind the eyes by the temples. It really affects my speech process and I often find myself mixing my words or losing the ability to articulate clearly. Mostly in the head, heavy but high.
With a reload and another few bags, I find it a bit racy but still a very dull stony/foggy high that will make time fly if you're not careful.

FINAL COMMENTS:
Well, I've got to admit I'm a bit disappointed. After hearing so much about Cheese and all the hype surrounding it I was keen to try out these seeds. They're pretty cheap which is a plus, 5/5 germinated but only 2/5 were female. The strain is a light feeder. One plant was almost twice the height of the other and had very little flavour. The other had a strong fruity flavour that although is very enjoyable, is not cheesy.
Medium yield after flowering for almost 12 weeks (83 days) but with little uniformity between plants.
And after this weekend the 2 weeks is up! Here's a sneak peak, funky serrations!
Nice report sammet, I just quit smoking man its been 5 days now and I'm doin very good. I'm just eyeing up your vaporizer I know that 1 is very expensive, how much did it run ya? can you taste the weed properly with it and how does it feel to take a hit with it man?
Thanks man
JB
nice smoke report Sammet...sorry to hear she s not all she could be..I just found a site that has CheeseWreck seeds!!!!Ive smoked the stuff & it was killer...gonna buy some of those beans soon, killer X!!!Peace bro
Thanks Zeus and exploziv. I'll do the Oasis report after this current run is done so they'll all have a comparable 10-12 week cure. Normal service resumes after the weekend
Yo sammet!
Many thanks for the smokereports!
It seems y'r not the only one slightly disappointed.
I've read somewhere onhere that more peeps felt the Big Buddah Cheese didn't live up to the general expectation..They said the same, no cheesy smell or taste..
Hey there sammet, long time no talk, see youve been busy, sorry about the cheese, looks great tho, i had the same problem with my double kush, good news is you can still make some great hash or butter!
Cheers High, Real, TML, BR and Rollin-its good to have you guys around, stop by anytime
Ryu - that looks like some tasty oil! The hermies were only a couple of weeks into flower and had no visible trichs so I thought I wouldnt waste my time (im well stocked with bud). Ouch, volcano stuff is pretty expensive - I just got a new set of 6 easy valve bags for just under £30. eek.
another good report too mate.
i too heard alot about the hype of the cheese, and i too would be dissapointed with it NOT tasting like cheese!...
and one with no taste./smell... hmmm... interesting mate.
