Full Version: What is the best weed for a Music Festival?
UK420 > Cultivation > Strain Base > Strain Talk
-=DrGreenThumb=-
Evening all,

I'm gonna be in my house very soon and will be starting a grow. I think I'm gonna start from cuttings from my favorite strain, El Nino!

What I was thinking though is I'm going to the V Festival in August and wanted to grow some nice weed for the experience! The El Nino is really heavy hitting and isn't really "walk about" weed, if you know what I mean!

I've been really interesting in growing out some of the SS Bubblegum and was wondering if you think this would be a good "high" to enjoy my music to this year?

Basically I'm wanting to know what weed you all recommend to enlighten this years festival experience?

Thanks in advance! spliff.gif

Any decent Sat dom should do the trick. But horses for course wink1.gif

Bubblegum in my experience has been far too heavy to be enjoying a stroll round a festie, tis a nice smoke to have whilst at home chilling with the tunes but not for a festie imo.

Thanks mate! I was thinking something Sat Dom would be better for more of the head high aspect like!

When I was looking into Bubblegum a few months back I read that "Serious Seeds worked his strain towards to Sativa side of things and T.H. Seeds went with the Indica" so was thinking that the Sativa aspect of the SS version may fit the profile for the concert/festival!

I've only smoked it a few times though and that was many years ago! The taste and smell were to die for, proper like those cheap 10p "blue" bubble gum drinks that you used to turn them over and bite the corner off, to drink from! (as apposed to little red straw) tongue.gif I cant remember much of the high, so if your saying it's a bit of a couch lock, then I think I'll have a look around for something thats s bit more sat dom, that tickles my fancy!

One other thing though, I've always planned on crossing this local El Nino strain (Pre 2000) and a bubblegum farther, so it could be an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone! unsure.gif

biggrin.gif I know, I cant wait to smoke my homegrown this year mate!

I had to take some dealer weed last year, thankfully it was good weed, just not the best tasting, I managed to cure if for a few weeks before hand like so that helped! So the weed done the trick but it was very heavy hitting and after smoking a full fat blunt to my self watching one of the bands and then having to walk a mile up this bank in the thick mud, I was literally fucked up by the time I got the top! Nearly collapsed, I then had to walk all the way back down as I was only going up there to get some wine to sneak into the arena for my g/f! rofl.gif I looked like death warmed up by the time I got back down to the bottom! So this year, I'm hoping for summit that will make me light on my feet! ;)

Any of the underground originals.

Normally I'd have said a bog standard sat or sat dom, but now there's a few seeds of OT1's strains... I've smoked the killer skunk, that's a go-er smile.gif not tried the others, but had the pleasure of a coupla smokes grown from his seeds and they are the mutts for up & active smokes, with no trace of anxiety, perfect for festivals IMHO. The killer skunk is good, give that a go or one of the others, if there's any left. Honest, I don't do well with 'up' smokes normally, I get anxiety, but not with the OT1's I've tried. lol.gif sorry to be a sycophant but the man aint a legend for nowt.

Music?
Only one choice as far as I am concernd: "The Blues".
Best damned music weed I've had in years! Great at parties too, although everyone ends up queing to sit next to you for a hit. Which, if there are plenty of ladies present, is no bad thing come to think of it lol.gif

Mixing music and weed has to be one of the greatest ways to pass time. The more music I listen to and the more weed I smoke, the more certain I become of this biggrin.gif

I know mate, I've verrryyy tempted to get my hands on 1 of the 3 strains available like, I wish I could afford them all but to be honest, my g/f would hang me (just got new house together russian.gif )!
Killer sounds like a dream smoke mate but then again it would be a bit illegal not to be sat smoking some "smile" or "oldtimes" while listening to some good tunes in the open air concert! I think you may have just forced me into a corner like! starwars.gif tongue.gif

"with no trace of anxiety"... Thats a very good point n' all! Don't want to be getting on a parra with 1000's of people about! whistling.gif

Shit man "the Blues", I assume your referring to the Killer cross!?
Now I'm torn between 3 strains here like; Killer Skunk, Oldtimes or Smile! smoke.gif

Killer skunk with the lovely sounding taste and reported high! What does it yield like?
"Smile" sounds like a fantastic smoke and perfect high for a festival atmosphere as well! Shame it has a low yield as well and I'm no seasoned pro grower!! tongue.gif
But the Oldtimes has a better yield, is part of the ESB genetics and is also "up high"! The Smile sounds nicer though dunit and a smile is what you want with 1000's of people about!

I love a joint and some tunes like! Happy times man! I've throughly tested the "stoned" vrs "not stoned" at concerts and every time weed wins hands down! Drink numbs rather than enhances! smoke.gif

----

So Bubblegum is out the window! tongue.gif

I think I'm torn between "Smile" or "Killer Skunk"!? The Oldtimes sounds like it might stretch a bit to much for my cubord!

Hard one like, gonna have to have a good read up on them both again!

Let me know what you lot think!?

Nope.
But a Killer would do, especially the more "Blues" like pheno's that are out there.
-=DrGreenThumb=-

Maybe I'll have a look at the killer and see if I can find a good blues pheno! I really like the sound of 'smile' like and 'redeyes' buds look lush!

I'm torn between the two now like! I think it's gonna have to be the smile though! How can I pass up on some OT1 genetics!?

What do u's think? Killer skunk or smile?

I have all of the underground original strains and without doubt I would choose oldtimes...

lol.gif I wish I could afford both mate but I'm skint and can't really afford to even buy one of them! My girlfriend would chop my arms off if she new I was spending 60 pound on some magic beans! biggrin.gif

Fuck her though, she'll thank me in August! wink1.gif

One more thing is, I'm only growing in a limited space and wouldn't have the room to grow them both!

I've tried some Jack Herrer and thought it was a nice smoke but nothing spectacular, maybe it wasn't a good pheno or poorly grown! I do think I need summit Sat Dom though, need summit to keep me active on my feet! biggrin.gif

I've grown White Widow before and it just puts ya on ya arse! biggrin.gif

It's Staff-V, sorry mate! smoke.gif

Niceee man, sounds like we're on the same mission! You going the V? tongue.gif .... I'm gutted really... have you seen the Leeds Festival Lineup n' all? It's the closest one to me as well! sad.gif ; Arctic monkeys, Radiohead, Kings of Leon!
I'm just hoping Oasis pull it out the bag and Rock the Show like it's '94 guitar.gif ! rofl.gif .... I'm not holding my breathe like! 34.gif

.... Maybe I'll need summit to "smile" about... or maybe it'll be like "old times"! guitar.gif

Hi Doc
I only have about 4 ft head room and with some heavy topping and bending dont have too much trouble with her stretching..I grow SOG and manage about 1.5 oz a plant...but whatever problems you have trying to keep her height down whilst growing will be so worth it when you get to smoke it...

I love smoking smile, it does exactly what it says on the tin, but oldtimes is in another league IMO.. It has a rich old school earthy flavour, a very clean up rushing high and a long lasting buzzy body hit.. For me it ticks all of my canna boxes,, I couldn't recommend it highly enough. stoned.gif
