After 4 weeks of cure, I’ve had a chance to sample enough for an honest review. Though I did make a few mistakes in this grow, both plants grew very well and the yield was far more than I expected. Other than having similar bud structures, they turned out much different. The largest pheno produced lots of huge, beautiful colas that were medium dense, wiry buds typical of a sativa dominant variety. Unfortunately, this monster never developed much of a terpene profile and even at harvest time it only had a very light, slightly pungent vegetal smell. The potency is modest and feels like a 50/50 hybrid that might even have a decent amount of CBD. I’m going to give this one a few more weeks of cure, but if things don’t seem like they improve, I’ll be using this for edibles. It’s possible that it could have developed more terpenes if I let it go another week, but I’m very confident the trichomes were at peak ripeness at the time of harvest. Overall, I give this one 6 stars only because it was a big producer and grew like a champion. It’s just a bummer it turned to be a huge bounty of great looking bud that smells and smokes like Reggie. The smaller pheno smells like sweet tropical candy and the flavor is the same with hint of pine. The buzz to me also feels like a 50/50 hybrid, but far more potent that her bigger sister. I’m very pleased with the quality of this pheno so I’ll give it 8 stars. In conclusion, it was a fun grow and I certainly learned a lot, but likely wouldn’t grow this strain again unless it was from a different breeder. They were both easy to grow and were able to weather my newb mistakes with ease, but the inconsistencies turned me off. I’m sure I’m mostly to blame for lack of quality for the big pheno, but I feel strongly that genetics also had a hand in the result of the final product because both plants were so vastly different despite receiving the same treatment.

Reviews. Nutrient
Plants showed a noticeable improvement after use. I like the idea of using this in place of a compost tea. Easy to use and lasts a long time.
Good stuff. I’ve also used it in my vegetable garden with solid results.
Reviews. Lamp
As far as I can tell, it works great for the price.
Reviews. Tent
Works as intended. In retrospect, I should have opted for a larger tent.

Chopped them down on day 78 after putting them in the dark for 48 hours. There was definitely an increase in resin, but not a dramatic difference. For all I know, it could have just been routine late flower resin production. I would have liked to let them go a couple more days, but I had to go out of town and I would rather not run the risk of letting them mature too much. It is called Green Crack after all, not Green Couch😏 The trichomes were almost all cloudy with a small amount of clear and amber on nearly all the main bud sites. I thought the smaller pheno was going to finish a week early, but the big girl picked up the pace and finished right on time. I have the AC Infinity set for 50-55% RH and the temps should stay around 70 degrees Fahrenheit. I’ll update in the coming weeks with a final weight and post-cure smoke report. Thanks for following along! ✌️ *UPDATE* After three days of drying, I increased the RH to 60%. The temp stays between 67-72 degrees Fahrenheit. They’re starting to smell a little like hay, but I did leave a lot of leaves on them. I’m not overly concerned because the buds still feel moist and from the research I’ve done, this can be common. The buds smell fantastic when squeezed, so I assume they’ll turn out fine after a good cure. *UPDATE* Final weight: 8.75oz Plant 1: 52g Plant 2: 158g I trimmed after 10 days of dry time. The buds are on the airy side and dried a little too much. RH in the jars is between 55-58%. I added a fresh trimmed leaf to each jar to get the RH above 60%. Final post-cure review to follow after a couple weeks of curing.

Nice training dude!

@PurpleWorship, That makes sense. Thanks for the tip!

@CultivateIT, Exactly :) Remember to perform your LST when plant need water, way easier to bend it at this moment ^^

@PurpleWorship, Thank you! I was probably a little too handsy with them at first as I’m sure most first timers are. I learned my lesson after I snapped the top. 😆

Almost a year later so you may have learned better, but these buds weren't ready for harvest.

@DoctorAutoflower, definitely learned better. Patience is a virtue.

Hey man, amazing grow! I've just started my first ever grow with green crack, do you have any advice? Was LST and defoliation worth it? I read not to do LST on autos. Thanks!
CultivateIT

@alexgrowsweed, Thanks dude! They were super leafy, so defoliation was absolutely necessary. Trimming was a nightmare too. I think they need plenty of room to grow, so if space is an issue, LST is a must. Neither plant seemed to be negatively affected by either technique and I think it absolutely increased my yield.
