Anyone ever heard of it? Know anything about it?

Allegedly coming from up Humbolt way (CA). It smells like tire rubber with a hint of roses, tastes like gardenia and roses, has a really twisty strong head high with an equally strong body stone.

Way lekker. Pictures soon.

hmmm, there seem to be a lot of new crazy celebrity named strains coming out lately..

I've been unable to find the article where I read about it, but I think it was from a website of a Cali collective or dispensary...
I didn't pay much attention to the details of the strain/type thinking that it was just another marketing ploy, which in all honesty it usually is...
Example - Add a little bit of Sour Lemon OG, toss in a hint of Cali Orange, and a wee bit of Mexican Haze - call it Schwarzenegger Haze.

I suspect it's a really banging pheno of something else, which was why I was curious- It is perhaps my favorite smoke ever. It's up on the list at the very least.


John Lennon I


John Lennon II

It really smells strongly of tire rubber when it's ground up it's the strangest thing.

OMFG, what lovely looking buds... Now this is what I call bud porn...
It looks really delicate, but to think the flavor profile includes something harsh like tire rubber...
You might be spot on, a very special pheno indeed...
Care to send me some?

The funny thing is that there is NO rubber flavor at all, just this overwhelming clean floral taste. (Like I said, roses and gardenia, but not sweet.) I think the rubber smell is an ultra-concentration of the rose terpenes. There's also a sort of citrus quality to the smell of the whole bud.

Sorry, I won't harsh a good system by smuggling legal bud. I will just continue to encourage people to move to places with reasonable tolerance policies, and say Cali flowers ROCK. (Even if they are all just different cuts of power plant. )

The cream caramel I once grew smelled like tire rubber too. Didn't transfer to the taste.

interesting- that's a strain I find tempting every time I hear about it. How are you doing? Hope you're well and having a nice fall in Paris.

turns out to be a special Grand Daddy Purple momma with a sativa daddy, more word on what exactly the sativa is soon

Everything's good thanks I see Cali's treating you well ! I'm sure you'd love the cream caramel
