After a semi successful grow in soil last year, but with problems with thrips and spider mite I wanted to try a hydro grow.
I had a read up and this is my first attempt. I chose to grow a strain Ive not smoked before Candy Kush.
Out of the 3 seeds I had unfortunately one failed to Germinate however the remaining 2 sprouted quickly.
I also planted a Northern Auto seed I had from last year but for this diary ill concentrate on the Candy Kush.
if you'd like,,check my Northern Lights scrog and my purple haze greenhouse diaries for ideas on training/trimming/defoliation, i'm far from a pro,,but do use the method to promote bud sites as you mentioned above..
Looking good and progressing very nicely !! Good luck with the grow !
