The layering of Indica and Sativa qualities in this hybrid is a rare
accomplishment. A superb balance of the best traits from each end of
the cannabis spectrum has been achieved through expert selection over
countless generations. The blend of tropical genes in Ed Rosenthal
Super Bud's multi-faceted background is especially wide-ranging,
representing Sativas from all around the equatorial zone - Africa,
South East Asia, Central America and the Caribbean.
An amazingly
succulent flower formation is ERSB's distinguishing feature. Different
individuals show extra Sativa or Indica influence through subtle
variations in the development and structure of their resin-soaked buds.
Otherwise, phenotype variation is small, with a majority of plants
flowering at the same speed and increasing their height by about 150%.
A small proportion will show a jump at the onset of blooming, which
first widens the gaps between internodes and later gives an even
greater yield potential.
All females exhibit a flower structure
bursting with Indica density that is made even fatter with the running
Sativa tendency, resulting in buds that swell upwards and outwards to
crazy sizes. A strong and incredibly sweet aroma of pineapple-punch is
the dominant flavour across the strain.
The Sativa-leaning
females make great multi-stem plants and produce huge oval calyxes
which spiral into crooked bud-pyramids large enough to bend branches. The Indica phenotype's flowers are distinct and impressive,
building into voluptuous columns of snowy bud with main colas as thick
as an arm. Their gorgeous snow-covered effect comes from a unique
pistil formation - where the oversized antennae sprouting from each
calyx are covered with a visible fuzz of tiny hairs - and (as always
with a Sensi strain) from a stupendous covering of full-sized resin
glands.
Ed Rosenthal Super Bud is gourmet ganja with
cash-cropping potential - the only drawback being that growers may find
those harvests hard to part with!
