Update - Friday 11th June
All is good with this but I must admit I am a little disappointed with the yield as so far.
I’m probably just being impatient and have thought this a lot.
Iv just been tying down branches when they get too tall so that it’s a level canopy.
The lemon pie auto seems to be fattening up a little more than the pink lemonade or purple lemonade what the fuck it’s called!
I’m a bit disappointed about the colour of it. The fastberry was WAAAY more colourful, however, it is HOT at the moment and there isn’t really a way to cool it at night to bring out the colours.
I think I’ll try growing this strain again in the winter to compare notes. I didn’t really tie down the Fastberry when I grew it. I wish I had done what iv done ever since the banana blaze auto by Dutch passion.
I just literally drill holes all the way around the top of my pots and use short bits of gardening wire to secure the branches to the same height. This also helps with air flow.
I am glad that I didn’t put three plants in there and I’m also not surprised they are going over the fastbuds estimate for how long it takes to grow.
The smell is incredible though I must admit. Incredibly lemony with a sharpness that I hope stays there when it’s dried, cured, vaped and in my blood stream attatched to my cannabinoid receptors!
I think another week or two and bingo! That’ll be cut, dry and cure time.
I should probably start some new seeds soon but I don’t want to start them too soon. I have loads of that banana blaze left atm. Whatever what harvested from these 5 plants I have flowering at the moment is a simple bonus.
I think I’m near reaching the stage of self sufficiency with regards to my cannabis medication.
It’s interesting that your perspective changes due to how many jars are full with nicely curing and cured weed!
It’s just a luxury not that many people talk about if they even grow themselves. That’s why I love this community.
@Grape_Juice,I know right?! When you look at their catologue it’s obviously the one that pops out the most! It ALMOST jumps off the page and into my vape…almost
@Rabidreject, yeah growing is half the job . Drying and curing is also very important . I haven't bin able to expience that yet . Hopefully in week 5 ore 6 🤘🏻🤘🏻
@DevilsBud, yeah man, I couldn't agree more. I generally find 2-3 weeks after drying, when it's in a jar being burped and shaken twice a day, the flavours and smells start to come out how they should do.
I obviously leave it for more time with burping and boveda packs but that’s the minimum. Also for some reason I ALWAYS worry it’s going to smell of hay or grass clippings in those two to three weeks!
@Rabidreject, no worry's mate i am struggling sometimes with my diaries too . All that matters is that can enjoy your harvest . Hopefully it will get all sorted out . 🤘🏻🤘🏻
@Rabidreject, I'm gonna have to try that! I always cook all my leftovers anyway lol almost made some iso hash from the blue dream but decided on brownies lol
@Toastdtoast, They are really nice in a salad but don’t just use the fan leaves and I’d recommend blanching them quickly otherwise they can be a bit tough but taste lovely
