There is literally no weed smell yet. The slight gas smell is just enough to make it smell like you just opened something new made of plastic. It is barely enough to cover the usual soil smell before the flowers kick in.

Here's a size comparison on the new cones. About a third the weed volume of a king, half the length. For something like the Croquembouche that may still be a 2-session 🤪 View attachment 83706
I'm a lightweight and therefor a big fan of small joints. I go with 1.25s for CBD but I rarely roll a joint that holds more than 0.5g with weed for myself. I like the little "mini" palm rolls that hold 0.5g a lot.

I looked at price, and it's basically a convenience thing. I have a box of packs of papers and a box of packs of pre-cut cone tips, and after a big one is rolled you can fill it as much as you want. I'm just habitually a stingy bastard :ROFLMAO: I ain't wasting half a joint's worth of paper!!! :unsure::rolleyes:

I’m a lightweight too. I use Blue Zig Zags. Prolly fit half a gram max. That’ll last me usually all night. I only have about three hits at a time. More than that and I’m in danger of greening out.

I am not a lightweight by far - I am making up for a few decades of missed buzzes and am building up a respectable tolerance. That is why the Croquembouche shocked me. I'm like the fully functional alcoholic that does everything better drunk - but without the alcohol. :)

Croquembouche is cured enough and still getting better. The smell has evolved into a buttered popcorn smell, but with a sweetness. Not enough to be a caramel corn yet but I can see it being there in a month. IMG_2266.JPG
The taste on the inhale is mellow, not much to describe but pleasant.
The taste on the exhale is something I have never paid attention to because of the headrush 🤪 IMG_2267.JPG
In a bowl would be preferred for this - or pressed - or hashed - or even a mini-joint. Don't roll a fatty. :cool:

And some individual plants
The stuff from CLG:
Vietnamese Silver Leaf - get it while it's hot LOL

And two that will probably make the cut based on awesomeness:
4th Gear x White Larry DragonIMG_2268.JPGIMG_2270.JPG
And the twin Hippie Crippler x GSC - I brushed against one of the lower nugs
Q: what do you do?
A: smell your fingers! 🤪 Hints of bubblegum - crazy!

And the Mr. Nice stuff.
The Early Skunk ain't early but it might have a little skunk going on - which is cool.
Chunky little nugs bunched like grapes

And I have no clue what these Angen Heart nugs will end up looking like - nothing but punk-rock hair.
But the smell is a combination of everything and it works. VERY aromatic.

Did the last post waiting on water to finish bubbling. Watered the PD tent, and got tired of the crowding from plants that didn't need to be in there.
PD only now, and as soon as there's room two will move to the other tent.

Based on space and the fact that I am going to get plenty of VSL from the mom plant I am now down to one clone of each AH/VSL/HQ.
The VSL shrub was a hot mess s it's gone. IMG_2287.JPG

The Homecoming Queen has another day to hang. Drying a little quick just because it's skinny. Weed math says it should dry to 1.75 ounces. I don't see it, but I may be surprised.
IMG_2306.JPG
I haven't touched anything to see if it is the bud density giving me the weight, but I ain't selling it so the weight doesn't matter - just personal curiosity and record-keeping
IMG_2304.JPG
But If this is anything like the other baguettes cross (Croquembouche) I'll have another jar of 'face-punch' weed LOL
IMG_2302.JPG
And I still have a Spyrock Special Hash Plant x Baguettes cross to run - life is good :)

I hate it when I am right. The Homecoming Queen dried to the weights it should have based on total weight, but there was a lot of stem-weight.
IMG_2309.JPG
I snipped away all the stem, ended up with a load of nickel sized dense nugs, and a handfull of large pea-sized secondary nugs. I went ahed and trimmed it all 'grinder ready' and got 40g total.

Why do I not mind?

I think the only drawback to this strain would be if you were selling it - you would need an exclusive clientelle willing to pay what it's worth instead of what it weighs. :cool:
