Since SSHZ seems to have disappeared, I thought I'd finish out his thread with at least some comments about this strain so people know what they are getting.

1. As the pic above shows, it's loaded with resin. It has to be at least 28% THC by all accounts. There is a wide selection of pheno's, some heavily leaning towards the G.G. and others leaning straight towards the skunky side.
2. Top quality, about an 80/20 leaning towards sativa. Ethos did a great job on this one.
3. Taste and smell are top notch, but lots of variety in these traits too.......
4. It's a limited edition, but i think Ethos has already done at least 2 runs of it.

Finally, everyone loves it with comments like "Excellent", "Best Yet" and "I'll take 8 more". Grab this one if you can........

hey Gambler- thanks for the preview. i'm in week 3ish of veg. had 4/6 germinate. 1/6 on the mandarin cookies and that one was weak and died off within 2 weeks . of the 4 citral glues 2 are huge fast growers with lots of indica. 2 are more viney, more sativa leaf leaning, very nute sensitive. had to go to 1/3 strength to stop the leaf curl. will try to post some pics later

Anything sativa should almost always be fertilized at a lower rate.......I think I kept mine around 200-300 ppm lower than normal and don't think I went over 800 ppm the entire grow. Let it go at least 9.5 weeks for the full finish, and you'll be VERY HAPPY with the end product. Everyone loves it. Add in he heavy yield, it's instantly a top 5 strain, and was tested at around 29% THC.

I see Ethos did a reversal grow of it now, with a reverse of the parents- used the opposite strain male and female for parents which I am considering a grow of in the future. Seeds of this are currently available.

I destroyed the Mandarin Cookies plants I had started because they were just too far behind but I gave some seeds away to a medical grower on RIU- look up Dr Gruber, he's close to finishing 2 of them which look wonderful.

Well I hope SSHZ is okay, followed his previous grow to this one.
Hey Gambler I just got 2 6-paks of Ethos Citral Glue R1 yesterday from SHN and from what you added it sounds like the bomb, I'm really looking forward to growing this strain now ;?) When I bought these, I was so stoked to see them in stock that I didn't notice the R1, lol - so have you heard whether this will live up to the original Citral Glue?

They certainly look nice and plump, beautiful seeds, a little over $16 per but well worth it if they live up to the reputation ;?)

First I'll tell you a secret. Ethos is putting out some of the finest genetics right now.....just watch, this seed bank is going to "take off" as the word gets out. It's also about to hit some east coast dispensaries, as it's being grown in a state facility near by.

SeedsHereNow listed 2 new Ethos strains, but no info about them. I was able to find some good stuff, as Ethos posts regularly on Instagram. I found the genetics of "Zsweet Inzanity", which is Durban Poison X RainMaker X Gorilla Glue #4. Ethos said he thought it one 1 of 3 of the best strains he's ever done. 30% THC, heavy yielder, leans to the sativa side.......just up my ally.

I have some discount codes for SHN, message me if you need one but I was able to get 10% off, then another 10% getting my seeds down to around $13 a piece- well worth it for the genetics.

I'm currently growing 20 plants of Oni's "Papaya Punch", which has GrandDaddy Purple in it. I bought the last 5 packs SHN had, Today is 3 weeks into flowering. Papaya is ONi's signature strain, he mixes it with everything he does. For a reason!

So, you got the straight G.G. #4 to try. A few crops back I did a G.G. #4 from Expert Seeds out of Ireland, and I thought it was great. When I did Ethos C.G. strain, it was so much better. You'll be happy with, I'm sure of that. Everything he does is top shelf.

Oh yeah, make sure you pinch her once or twice, close to flowering. I do it around 5-6 days before flowering. This will help make her more manageable. You've been warned.......

That's really nice to hear. Recently Ive been on the lookout for better genetics but nothing has passed the acid test for a top drawer, holy grail strain ;?)

I've been saying for a while that if I could, I'd be growing Holy Grail Kush- this is great smoke but it stinks like no other. My wife could smell it down the driveway, a good bit away. It breaks my heart. But it was a very worrisome grow from 2nd week of veg on.

Ethos has made it much easier. Someone had my Citral Glue tested and showed me the report- 29% THC- not too shabby. I wish they did more indica's, for some variation- but they are always my first choice now. People go crazy for this stuff.........
