Breeder's Description - 'Celestial Temple Sativa' | | The Celestial Temple Sativa (CTS) is from the area between the coast and the Andes mountains in Ecuador, an area where you find the huge banana plantations and other agricultural productions. Along the coast, daytime average high temperatures range from 84 F (29 C) to 91 F (33 C), with nightime lows going from 68 F (20 C) to 74 F (24 C), making CTS an extremely good producing 10 week sativa that's mold and mildew resistant. Long dark jagged leaves with densly packed pinky pistills and a great calyx to leaf ratio makes trimming a breeze and a pleasure. Known in the medical community as being an ...continued

Growth report:
Quite easy to grow for a sativa. Be attentive to overwatering. This one likes dry soil like many sativas. It seems to like moderate fertilization. I had to prun the plants at three internodes. Not all plants developped 6 branchs, some developped only 4. The strain is quite vigourous but be attentive in the middle of the vegetative cycle: the stems tend to be a little weak. When flowering time arrives (after just more than one month in my case), they have a little boost in their growth. But after two weeks of flowering time, the main growth stops and I think that time is quite short compared with other sativas that continue to grow for weeks... The buds appears after two or three weeks of flowering. They will have an continuous grow until harvest. Resin production begins also rapidly. Some plants tend to be better resin producer than others. At the end (near to eight weeks for me, but I produced seeds), you have buds that are very resinous and that present a good size for a sativa. The drying process doesn't present any problems, but be careful with the odor which can be strong.
Smoking report:
I distinguish two parts in the high.
The first part is a electric high with a cardiac acceleration. You have a lot of ideas that disappear as quickly as they appeared. During the first 20 minutes, I would describe the high as a linear regression with a strong positive coefficient.
The second part is more quite, with a "planant" effect. While your brain seems ok, you know that you're completely stone. A strange impression that I already had with Malawi gold, but in a weakier way.
The high is very longlasting, peaceful and after 2 hours 1/2, the celestial lets you return to a normal life as if nothing happened.
Compared with the Ethiopian Highland, it's a less trippy high, less aggressive but more quite, more longlasting and more relaxing.
Compared with the Jamaica from hemcy, it's a more "up high" and more consistent, without breaks. It's also more consistent than Skunk n°1 high.
To conclude, it's clearly a pure sativa high. No evidence of indica part in this stuff.
Conclusion:
I consider this strain as a "must have". Relatively short vegetative cycle, short flowering time for a sativa with a pure sativa high. A sativa lover will find his money with this strain. I'm waiting for the F2 to make my opinion about the genetic stability.
Garden Information for this report That is a cube of 1.2m*0.7m*0.7m. I have 180W of fluoro: 72w that are vertical and 108w that are horizontal. In that growing area, I made a unique jar which has exactly the maximum size available. In that way, I can grow between 10 and 20 plants per cycle, depending on the strain concerned. I'm watering every 4 or 5 days with a pierced bottle in order to have an homogeneous humidfication of all parts of the jar. I fertilize usually twice in vegetative part (30 to 45 days) and twice in the flowering part. The soil is renewed at the beginning of each cycle, before transplanting the seedlings. |
