Silvered Out & Greasy: This One’s a Contender

Description
When I turn the lights off and use natural light…. the canopy turns silver because of the frost.
The trichomes are stacked, the fade is clean, and the resin is loud.
What I’m seeing right now:
Massive nugs (can’t even wrap my fingers around some)
Great density with open structure
Heavy trichome coverage
Noticeable greasiness, not just waxy
That open-but-dense structure is why I think this Sour will wash well. It’s packed with resin, but not rock-hard in a way that traps everything inside.
And greasiness matters to me.
When trichomes feel greasy instead of dry or chalky, that usually correlates (for me) with potency and loud flavor.
Now… not every plant is equal.
One faded a little strange.
One has more amber but weaker aroma.
And then there’s #9, the one that clearly took over the canopy.
Big yield.
Strong structure.
Loud nose already.
But structure doesn’t win.
The smoke test wins.
We’ll run them all, make the final keeper decision, and then the real fun starts; healthy mom, fresh cuts, and sharing with the community (locally only).
No hoarding over here.
The best genetics deserve to move.
