I'd had some experience in a couple of previous grows with selections from Elev8 Seeds. I had grown a couple of Tangie Candie plants and wanted to try another Runtz cross, so I went with Apple Candie, a cross of Apple Fritter and Runtz. The Apple Candie finished with an earthy sweet flavor. The buds were moderately dense, with average trichome production, and the finished product was potent and flavorful. 

Sugar Cane (Platinum x Slurricane) from In House Genetics was another variety I wanted to try, having grown a resin-drenched pheno of their Slurricane #7 S1 in a previous grow. This Sugar Cane pheno, like the Slurricane, was covered in copious amounts of resin. The flavor was sweet and floral. Nuggets were small to medium in size and rock solid.
