Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

Whenever I pop Vision Seeds genetics, especially this Gary Payton, I know I'm in for a treat. Before starting, I always make sure my carbon filter is fresh because those sweet, gassy cherry aromas get loud fast. During the vegetative stage, I love topping her early; she responds beautifully and bushes out, creating multiple heavy colas. I usually run her in large fabric pots with a rich organic soil. Once she hits week 6 of flower, the frost is unbelievable. After the dry and a solid 3-week cure, the flavor is out of this world—like a citrusy caramel candy. It’s my go-to smoke when I need to brainstorm new ideas for the shop without feeling glued to the couch.
