I have two at 35 days flower.......vegged for 45 days. They are squat in structure.....flowered at 16", they are now 32" and stopped "stretching". Clones rooted in 6 days.....at 4 weeks are healthy and vigorous. I have two more at 45 days from seed ready to be cloned from and flowered........I just started a grow report on the CNH, will post pics as soon as I figure out how (old school). I have grown NLB, Caramelo, and Sugar Black Rose as well from Delicious Seeds with great results. I would highly recommend these strains........will keep posting my progress with the CNH.I almost want to try their Critical Neville haze, but I think that one is 11+ weex for sure. I wouldn't mind trying pure neville haze but I think that one 14+ weex. Cheers thanx for sharing the pics.
I haven't done their Black Russian but the SBR's I have done have practically grown themselves, clones easily, grows quick in veg and bloom. Creeper bud for sure, easy to over-medicate and find yourself not wanting to move much, and great to numb back and shoulder pain. Excellent for video gaming, just make sure to have some snacks close at hand because the munchies come on strong with the SBR about 30-45min in.After hearing so many good reviews I picked up a pack of Sugar Black Rose and also a pack of Black Russian for good measure. About 2 weeks into veg plan on flipping in a few weeks.
I actually got a SBR freebie from Attitude UFO about 2 years ago and thought who the hell are these guys and gave it away.
It was a nice plant, will stretch 4x or more when flowering, nice solid buds with a interesting metallic and musky taste, smell wasn't anything special for me, musky/piney. As a kid did you ever bite an eraser off a #2 pencil? Remember that taste if you bit down on the metal piece holding the eraser? Freaky that it has a metallic taste and reminded me of that from my childhood. Patients liked it and is top shelf but it wasn't any better than what I already have so I donated the mom to a local caregiver and his patients love it. For me its a win-win, pay it forward type of deal to me. Delicious sends me the seeds in exchange for photos, my patients and myself get some great meds, and then a couple of local caregivers get some great genetics for their patients as I move on to other strains.Batcave: How did your critical Kali mist come out? how was the smoke?
I was looking at CSSH too. I was curious if they all finish within 8 or 9 weeks. When I buy a pack a seeds, I usually only grow one seed at a time and didn't want to get stuck with some 12 week pheno if that is a common pheno.I haven't done their Black Russian but the SBR's I have done have practically grown themselves, clones easily, grows quick in veg and bloom.

I Just contacted them last week to let them know I'm getting close to being out of seeds so they are sending me another care package. I believe it will have Critical Jack Herer, Cotton Candy, and maybe some extras . As soon as I recieve them I plan on starting a Delicious only grow journal.
I had no clue either of who they were until 2 years ago and to be honest the only reason I went with them in the beginning was to try and get a Super Silver Haze that wasn't 10 to 12 weeks for flowering like my friends. I had purchased the lone CSSH seed but contacted them when it was at day 45 and almost finished. My first thought was I had recieved a different strain by mix up or something. Nope, just a very special pheno, I guess this would be my version of clone only, no reports on other CSSH's like mine. My friend down the way grows Mr. Nice's Super Silver Haze and it takes 78 days for his compared to mine at 50 days, same taste, similar smell although mine is much stronger smelling and clearer high. The stronger smell may be from me being mostly organic and him doing Fox Farm ferts, I have grown her organic and non-organic and the difference in smell is night and day.
Average Critical SSH from what I seen on the different forums and youtube vids is 65 to 70 days, Delicious recommends 60 to 70 day window. I just have a super freak for a pheno . I only started with the one single seed that I got from Single Seed Centre back in 2011, I got real lucky with my lady..I was looking at CSSH too.

I did experience some change in flavor and aroma as well......from grapey to more hashy/earthy as it matures. I took one at 8 weeks, one at 9. The 8 weeker was grapier, and potent. The 9 weeker did yield better, and was potent, but as it cured it began to taste like marijuana with hash mixed in.....through the entire smoke session. It still had a good taste and affect, but, yeah it was not as grapey.Hey folks,did anyone notice that caramelo changes it's aroma quite significantly over the course of flowering?
Early harvested at 7-8 weeks it's sweet, quite grapey and the bud structure is dense, but with a certain fluffiness / mellowness like some skunk, like dense cotton candy from the fair. The different mellow "mini-buds" are distinct from each other.
Later on it gets uber-dense, just balls of mass with those late flowering foxtails and with a dark and earthy overripe taste, though it tastes sweeter on the tip of the tongue..some friends even thought it was a different strain..
didn't had that in such a significant way on any strain before..
Really ripe the high is way more devastating but I feel the taste is also quite compromised..I think of harvesting this stuff earlier the next run, though it is quite some time before the estimated flowering time and won't have that crazy purple tones like late in flower.
I grew the NLB as a freebie as well......it did have a slight blueberry taste. However, I was more impressed with the earthy, OG Kush-like taste mine had. It did not have much aroma while flowering. I have 2 flowering ATM.......one seems to be NL Dom, the other BB Dom. I will post pics of these if anyone is interested.....the difference in their structure is obvious. They have only been flowering for 12 days.....I have a clone of each, one rooted in 6 days (NL Dom), the other 9 days.i just ordered a few seeds and have a free cotton candy on the way too hehe..... looking forward to the nl blue... im noticing a tea like smell, mainly from the leaves, in Mt hands after handling, did the blueberry come through on yours at any point? in terns of taste and flavour....? she's in early flower so I'm hoping the aroma might develop yet. I'm scrogging her and looks set to yield well. sprouted around 23rd july, outdoor on a balcony, even doing it late she's quite large. my first photo grow too
