Chem 91 x Sherbet brings Chem 91 together with Sunset Sherbet. The first is the SKVA cut - the original Chemdog '91 and the clone the family takes its name from; the second, Girl Scout Cookies crossed to Pink Panties, and one of the definitive modern dessert plants. Two lines that were never going to produce a quiet plant. Every parent CSI use is a cut they keep alive themselves, so nothing in this pack is a reconstruction of a famous name.

91 identifies the Chem used here. Numbered cuts come out of a population that was grown and sorted, and the number rides with the plant that was kept. Two crosses that both say Chem are only the same cross if the number matches too.

Chem 91 sits on the seed side here, Sunset Sherbet on the pollen side. If you have seen these two names paired the other way round, that is a different pack and not this one.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: Chem 91. The SKVA cut, the original Chemdog '91 and the clone the whole Chem family is named after. It traces back to one of thirteen seeds from a bag bought at a Grateful Dead show in 1991. Skunk VA was given a cut in 1995 and has held it since, which is why the line survives.
• Father: Sunset Sherbet. Girl Scout Cookies crossed to Pink Panties, and one of the definitive modern dessert plants. Given as Girl Scout Cookies x Pink Panties. Wants a stable room - around 70-78F and 40-50% humidity in bloom.
• What the cross is reaching for. One side brings the structure and the other brings the nose. The plants worth keeping out of a pack are the ones that hold both rather than picking a side.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

Two distinct smells, and a pack will give you both plus everything between.

• The Aroma. Pungent turned earth and diesel with pine and citrus sitting behind from the Chem 91 side, against sweet berries and creamy dough with tart citrus, a skunky edge and a subtle earthy fuel undertone from the Sunset Sherbet side.
• The Taste. Greasy and mouth-coating - fuel, then earth and pine, sour at the finish up front, turning to berry and cream with a citrus lift through the exhale.

What each side brings

• They are not on the same clock. Chem 91 runs sixty-three to seventy days; Sunset Sherbet runs eight to nine weeks, reported forty-nine to sixty-three days. Across a pack that gap shows up as plants finishing days or weeks apart.
• Where the nose comes from. One side gives pungent turned earth and diesel with pine and citrus behind it; the other gives sweet berries and creamy dough with tart citrus, a skunky edge and a subtle earthy fuel undertone. Plants landing in the middle are the keepers.
• Build. On the Chem 91 side: loose and open rather than compact, moderate to heavy stretch, branches that soften under weight late. On the Sunset Sherbet side: grows tall and thin with dense leaves; moderate, controllable stretch in early flower; round, tightly packed colas showing deep purple under cool nights; tight frosted buds with the classic Cookie structure. Select early rather than trying to train your way out of it.
• They pull differently. Growers put Chem 91 at alert and head-forward, sativa-leaning rather than heavy and Sunset Sherbet at indica-leaning and settling. Which end a plant lands on is the main variable.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. The two parents disagree here, so plan for range. Chem 91 is a loose, stretchy plant whose branches give way under late weight. Sunset Sherbet is grows tall and thin with dense leaves; moderate, controllable stretch in early flower; round, tightly packed colas showing deep purple under cool nights; tight frosted buds with the classic Cookie structure.
• Vegetative Phase and Training. Open the middle out early. Light reaching the lower sites is worth more than any late correction.
• Flowering Time. The parents are not on the same clock. Chem 91 runs sixty-three to seventy days, Sunset Sherbet eight to nine weeks, reported forty-nine to sixty-three days. Judge each plant on trichomes rather than pulling the room together.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe Chem 91 as alert and head-forward, sativa-leaning rather than heavy.
• The Body. Sunset Sherbet is reported as indica-leaning and settling, and that is the side supplying the weight here.

In the pack

Feminized seeds from Humboldt CSI. CSI work from clone stock they have kept for years and reverse it into seed, so what arrives in a pack is the real cut's genetics rather than a seed-line approximation of it. Real Humboldt CSI stock, not a copy.
