So why exactly is the butter cut so desired from SSDD? Is it potency? bag appeal? taste? smell? all the above? I don't know if I have ever seen anyone actually explain why this is considered the stand out pheno of SSDD.

And I though it got its name because it smelled like some Betty Crocker goodness but then others have said there is no smell. Those two bits of info seem to counter each other.

If anyone can shed any light I would appreciate it.

Potency and nature of the high. Although nobody's 'butter cut' will be exactly the same, they seem to mostly have the same effects. There's a substantial amount of pain relief, and a very blissful daydreamy high with borderline psychedelic notes. The plant I found that had a sour butter aroma had these, as well as a fairly squat christmas tree like structure and fairly low stretch for an appalachia hybrid. Mine had a very distinct aroma, but not very weedlike. Very much like sour butter, hard to describe it any other way. Bag appeal is like a 8 or 9 out of 10, but its much more about the effect with that one.

@apbx720 from what i've come across, the sunshine daydream is a very stable strain. the majority of them are very uniform but there are a few phenos that stick out. i was re-reading @MojoRizing 's description and his #3 sounds almost familiar :eyesmoke: the green crack pheno i had (#12)--she was amazing. looked at my notes: she was hairy but her buds were so thin through week seven i thought there was something wrong. she exploded those last few weeks relative to what she looked like and the harvest was very nice. overall, her buds were smaller dense nugs of goodness than the others. most phenos seem to have a fat look to the buds once they reach week six, so if you see this particular pheno :weed: i harvested her april 29, 2015, and i'm sure i put up some pictures in this thread of her if you wanted to see her. i tried to reveg her clone, but it wasn't the same. i look for it regularly.

i've had another pheno that i wish i would have saved. she cured up so nicely, she had a great taste to her. she was very fruity versus blueberry smell and small colas and faded fast on me. her flavor though wasn't fruity at all. it was very close to my unknown sour kush in that it almost had a cigar flavor to it? sweet without being over powerful, almost an aftertaste. i don't know how to describe it. she was a fast grower in veg. initially, i thought she was a male she was so tall so quickly, and from that i should have known she would have required more food through flower. i made seeds with this one. i don't recall if there are any pictures of this one on here...

this thread several pages back discussed finding the butter pheno. if i recall correctly, there isn't supposed to be much of a smell on her until later. a lot of what i've grown has had a distinct blueberry or fruity smell to it.

i've had one that made me think of someone's dirty mitten cut. was that yours @Al Yamoni? [i just looked really quick and it was @professor KIND] it stunk. :eyesmoke: only pheno i've not cared for the smell... the only thing i could think of when i smelled it was perhaps someone's dirty socks after skiing all day and they've come home with stinky frozen feet. ETA: don't tell my sister but, yeah--her. :lol: that girl's shoes could stink out a closet like no one else when she was young.;)

this might sound silly, but i've noticed the ones that have smaller calyxes as they flower are the ones that i like. the fatter colas are always good smoke, but the smaller nugs are some nice quality bongsmilie
Great info UCG! I do have to clarify one thing though...the "dirty mitten" is in reference to Michigan (shaped like a mitten, and perhaps a wee bit dirty) and not the smell of the plant. :-)

Thanks for the info friend and this description of the effects sounds divine.

I havent noticed a distinct butter smell but ive got one pheno thats just absolutely snowed out. All have great frost but this ones extreme. But for the amt of frost, theres a definite lack of smell. I can hardly smell it because the plants next to it drown it out. It has a bland kinda creamy chemy smell but idk how to describe better. Its got darker sugar leafs and smaller colas than the others. Does this sound like "butter" characteristics. Btw it abt half way thru week 6

Ah my butter cut!. Out of the 4 beans I ever popped from my pack,ended up with 2 plants and 2 different pheno's.
All I can tell you about that butter cut is (lucky with my first pack), that it tasted and smelled of hot butter that coated your tongue. After you told someone smoking it about the taste they would all agree on the hot butter. I cant really explain it any other way. It did not smell strong in flower, but after a cure it would fill the room and car with sweet butter dankness. Very unique smell .Stickiest plant I grew to date! Bag appeal from hell. It really does stick to the bag after its dried! No joke!!
2nd pheno was different. Nice berry smell and flavor but no butter., fatter longer buds. Fat leaves, and just as frosty as #1. took a few extra weeks in flower too. Same bag appeal also. Oh potency hell ya!!! And as far as stand out pheno I think they will all stand out. My buddy said he will keep that cut forever.
Cant wait to dig back into them packs I have left.:peace:

It isnt often that after reading a description I feel I cant live without something... this post is one of those times. It sounds like the most amazing girl. Hits all the right notes there. Daydreamy and borderline psychedelic... and pain relief too. Exactly what I need.

Well mines prolly not the straight butter, but it definitely smells very creamy like dairy but cool (not hot. I know exactly wat u mean by smells hot, ive had an og that way ) with some berry i cant decide strawberry or blueberry lol, but looks pretty similar to the pic posted u can compare.super mega sticky and frosty. U get tan sticky hash hash that is so good, on ur finger breaking it up. But its only 2 days cured! Still green. One of the most beautiful plants Ive ever grown.

But not hot butter, more like cool ice cream lol .

JDGreen, did your Jabbas Stash purple from genetics or cool temps? What can you tell me about your lovely pheno... Thank you ahead of time...
Shes a genetic purple. Temps never dropped below 77. Mostly because i had plants at weeks 2-8 in there at the time.
She started to purple around week 5 at the calyx tips first and then the leaves started. But i think if i flush her, which i didnt, she will purple alot. She was a 17in teat run to see how the flower is. Started flower at 11 in so looow strech. Dark dark leaves so fat they overlap and parts get light deficiency.
Super think main stalk and stem. Stays pretty green through growth if fed well. Mod feeder. Pretty decent yielder, avg bud sights but heavy heavy buds. Hairs turn pretty dark red.
May b a bit of a challenge cloning because the thick stems could hold a truck. First smells are berry and not very strong she doesnt impress much till week 5. I didnt like her till then. Wen the coffee smells came and finished hard with coffee mocha berry and a snow lotus musky taste that im growing on.

Shes a real winner. Got her in two females. Thats all i can think of right now. Trains great. Vegs slow. Prolly shoulda pushed 60 days.
