Plants tend to develop medium to long internodes and a strong central stalk, responding well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training. The buds are often conical clusters, densely packed with a generous coating of trichomes, indicating good resin production. Pistils can range from cream to copper, contrasting with lime-green bracts, and cooler temperatures may induce pastel purple hues.

Aroma & Flavor

Underlying notes of toasted nuts and cocoa can emerge, particularly after curing, adding depth to the overall scent. Flavors often mirror the aroma, presenting a blend of bright citrus and sweet confectionary notes with a subtle kushy finish.
