That was an impressive re-veg considering how little growth you were working with. Congratulations on bringing her back.

I'm a bit embarrassed to admit it, but my own accidental OE x Destroyer cross was a wash. It ended up throwing nanners on me and I had to take her/him down way early which is why I have been loath to post photos. I find it much harder to post photos of failure than success, but I suppose I should at least put up a few pics to show what she/he looked like before turning traitor on me. It's really my own fault for growing out hermie seed. I just figured the fem destroyer father threw nanners because this was years ago during my first grow and the plant was stressed, but given that the offspring carried the trait I think I was mistaken in my assumption that it was not genetic. So anyway the lesson here is think twice before growing out seed that came from hermie parents even if you think the nanners were stress induced.

Nice cross LF, I got 5 OE seeds left(fem) I think Golden tiger male would be decent donor
Vietnam Black pheno of OE was probably best ganja I consumed in 18 years of smoking herbs.

orientExpressxVbT cross reveg,
around 1 wk into 11/13.
she'd already begun stretching a little due
to the dwindling window-light she'd been living
off of until last monday...

thin, but firm/stiff stems.
flowering under a 6x4ft.HOT5 array for awhile. reddish GE bulbs.
71F/22C directly under the lights, plants a couple inches down.
switch to 1kwHPS a little later, when ambient temps drop further.

really nice, clean awe-inducing introspection (vs spooky quiet introspection)
to her high, that i could see some describe as "spiritual".

buenas vibras

Hi LowFalutin,

I'm glad your selected OE X VB Thai revegged so nicely
Do you keep clones of her in the mother room ?

hola dubi. finally took a clone of her two weeks ago,
just taking root now.

at this point her aromas are lightly creamy earth,
and a lightly zingy sweet lemon, at a lower level.

a bit of clawing from a feeding last week.
strawberry aroma has just turned on.

edit: i really liked the way the strawberry worked with the
cindy's melon fruitiness in a couple of the C99bx1 x VbT phenos.

of 11/13...

she bulked up a bit this week
(compare to previous post),
and her buds sugared a little as well...

aromas now are creamy humus, strawberry,
peach, flower bouquet, and a little lemon...
can't wait to vape her.

belated thanks for the post, k.
that's quite the endorsement.
truly is a unique high, and i hate to mess
with it too much. i'll prolly stick with pheno hunting
thru the OE x VbT and C99bx1 x VbT hacks.

sorry that cross didn't work out for ya.
smelling the OExVbT this morning, i was reminded
that she could benefit from some more pleasurable aromatics.
not the most nose-friendly terps... all the fruitier elements have
moved on, and it's fairly "dirty" at the moment. i'm sure the strawberry
will come back out after harvest and cure time.
part of the reason i crossed the VbT with the C99 was for improved aroma,
as well as more complex effects. need to launch more of that hack some time soon.

OExVbT, down at 7wks, 2dys.

OExVbT, down at 7wks, 2dys.

she hermed, and so down she comes.
no fully developed seeds, but quite a few
green ones almost full-sized... looks like
the pollination occurred a little while ago.
while in flower i'd been giving the plants
daily h2o sprays under their leaves to keep
the spider mites at bay, but it seems to have
helped limit the spray of pollen as well,
as i only see partial seeds on the OExVbT.

after large fan leaves removed.

first night of 11/13 was on sept.11, but she had already begun
responding (e.g., stretching) to dwindling daylight at the attic window,
where she vegged. so maybe add 1-2wks to her 7wk flowering time.
quite a few cloudy trichs, but no amber.

OExVbT, after a 3mo cure

OExVbT, after a 3mo cure

she was harvested at 7wks & 2dys, due to herming.
aroma in the jar is a little cheesy, but the flavor thru
the vape is a lightly sweet strawberry-apple.
very clean high, with a bit of the thai energy,
moderated/lightly chilled by the Vb and yunnan.
no tiredness at the end, just gentle "back to normal",
and possibly ready for another lift. crazy clean effect.

i want to go thru more of the OExVbT seeds until i find
a sexually stable keeper.

saludos

Thanks for the smoke report! Looks like you got some incredible flower from your plants. Smoke a bowl for me bro!
