I'm still going with tap water instead of RO water so my PPM is too high for the first week, and my temperature is getting high (unavoidable in the desert, I'm not going to buy an AC unit for this plant).
So far the leaves are a little twisted but this doesn't have me worried (maybe it should?) and otherwise she is looking OK to me.
If I start seeing signs of nute burn I'll go back to RO water as I did with my last two grows.
Otherwise, just going to stay the course and see where this plant takes me!
3rd time is apparently the charm! So, I'm sure you and and your little ones will do great!
Sending the best of vibes to you, your plant/s, and your mutual growth together! Good luck! 🌱
@@CheefDunnoNothin,
Okay cool. I just ordered the entire line of the first authentic Banner autos from the original breeder. Very excited to get em going.
@HashCakes, I prefer to vape so as taste goes I don't have much input.
A friend of mine that smokes everyday doesn't care for Hellbender because he believes it makes him feel very "dumb" the next day - he has stopped smoking it in favor of Bruce Banner (which is why my current grow is a Bruce Auto).
Another one that smokes everyday likes Hellbender a lot but stops short of raving about it & says he uses it to supplement some other bud that he prefers in order to make it "go further".
My own experience is no paranoia, no anxiety, no couch lock, no munchies, and no other obvious negative side effects (not any dumber than normal the next day!). For me it is just a nice mellow middle-of-the-road "high" feeling that stops short of being anything special or particularly memorable.
My overwhelming urge is to call it "vanilla".
It might be reasonable for people who are relatively new to cannabis to try a strain like this. I'm not sure what flavor/feel you're looking to achieve with your own grow but as you know phenotypes and growing conditions can make for some wild differences within the same strain so I hope it goes well for you!
Try hellbender in 3 gallon pots in a 3x3 =9 pots or optimal 5x5. They love growing in a sog and trellis if you have room to maneuver. I've grown a few strains. Bessie cake is my fave hands down
