It was my 1st successful grow so I'm rather satisfied.
10/10 germinated.
2/10 sprouted (due to my mistakes - didn't water them).
1/2 was female.
Height 1.20m (it was topped by unknown creatures).
Yield: ~ 200g
Plant was rather easy to grow. Never shown any signs of stress.
I wish I had watered them after putting them into soil.
Nice purple buds.
Quite strong high.
Pretty satisfying as a whole.

Living in Sweden I had to grow this both indoors and outdoors. Indoors is tricky since Twilight is sensitive to temperatures over 30 (Celcius) and we had some problems with ventilation and heat. We had 3 different genotypes, one very tall, one a bit bushy and one inbetween.
Indoors we got the best results trimming it scrog or fim/top in veg and trimming the lower branches. We tried sog but it was useless, the plants were to lanky.
The Sweden summer suggested we flower for 2 weeks indoors before planting it outdoors. We had it grow for a couple of months inside (1m) and then flowered it for 2 weeks. We found a secluded spot where we put our Twilight one night in June. We used 10-15l potting soil with small leca.
When it didn't rain we watered it. It had a lot of sun but the weather could have been better.
The yield outdoors wasn't better than indoors this summer. The buds were denser indoors.
The taste is heavy and rich, very nice! And the high is more of a low, you get glued to the sofa but if you want to get something from the kitchen it's not impossible.

This report is my first but I just had to tell you about this one... A very nice find indeed!
5 seeds were planted from a regular (non feminised) breeder pack. The main goal with this genetics was to add some purple to the indoor garden WITHOUT doing anything to drop night temperatures during flowering. Some people told me this was a very rare feature but I thought I would try anyway. This plant is listed for outside but I decided to grow it under the HPS even if I had read bad reports about Twilight grows indoor. They are some of the cheapest seeds available from Dutch Passion so I did not care very much if it turned out bad. For the price I figure you just cant go wrong with Twilight. As space was an issue around here, I only had room for two 1,5L pots and thought I needed would have to carefully select the best individuals.
3 out of 5 seeds germinated and one happened to be a freaky mutant that I tossed out. That makes it 2 plants. They were vegged for 3 weeks and then, as flowering started, I was lucky enough to get 2 females... Those 2 plants showed different phenos, one was with green buds and the other, with purple buds. The 2 phenos grew in very similar ways, and happen to be easily the stretchiest variety I have grown to date. With such fat fan leaves, both phenos I had definitely show strong indica roots. They grew to about 3 foot high and tripled height during flowering so watch out for this! Both plants were what I call Single Cola phenotypes and had very few side branches, but the main cola really made up for this. The buds have a good density and I think they might be prone to rot because of this fact.
The plants were cut after 52-53 days of flowering (12/12). By then they were the best looking in the garden with very nice coloration and trichome production. They could have been left a little longer, maybe a week for maximum potency. I am glad I did not do that, as this bud is already a quick-hitter, one that makes me really sit back...
The final yield was almost 20 grams of prime bud per plant. Each one had about a third of a square foot to grow so that makes around 2 Oz per sq./ft. even with so much stretch.
The taste, after one week of curing in jars, is sweet and not harsh at all. I personally do not flush with the kind of fertilizer I use but it does not seem to affect the final product. The smell is like some unknown rotten fruit.
Bottom line: Try this strain. It looks awesome, yields great, has good potency and is on the cheap side for such nice genetics. The only possible drawback is if you have height restrictions. Then, you might want to look somewhere
