~HUMBOLDT SEEDS AMHERST SOUR DIESEL~
When I started this girl she was germinated along with 12 other seeds, four Auto's and Eight Photoperiods. During germination, I had a couple of seeds from both fail and had to replant. I originally thought she was one of my Auto's, but when after 30+ days from seeds she wasn't show any signs of flowering, I figured that two of the tags must have gotten switched some how. I had given up on germinating the ASD after 3 seeds failed to germinate but apparently the fourth one was 'the charm'! Once I put her on a flowering light cycle of 11/13 she immediately went into flower and never looked back, finishing up with some beautiful green buds with contrasting orange & golden hairs and a coating of white trichomes, that are rock hard and resin soaked!
The Amherst Sour Diesel high as an immediate onset of a calming, energized, and euphoric cerebral head high with a slight buzz in the back of your head. These effects will leave you feeling social and upbeat, although your thoughts may be a bit jumbled. The insane head high is accompanied by a light functional body high with a warming sensation throughout and a feeling of relief. Due to these potent effects, Amherst Sour Diesel is an ideal strain for treating stress, depression, anxiety, and moderate pain. These medium-sized dense neon green nugs are furry, specked with amber and gold hairs, and caked in fine crystal trichomes. With a pungent fruity wood smell with a hint of diesel and a taste of pungent fruity wood, Amherst Sour Diesel will definitely please even the most discerning connoisseur with it's complex aroma and myriad of effects!

First time using this product. It was included with a set of peat pellets I got to germinate seeds in. I saw no negative affects and it worked as advertised!
What can I say...after running three Sun Systems 315 LEC's with great success in my 4x8 I made the switch to LED's. I did my research, talked to other growers, then decided to go with two HLG's 650R's. I added to each of them HLG's 30w supplemental UV bars which attach directly to the main quantum board...nice clean setup! The thing I liked most about these lights, besides the massive 2.81 umol output, is the fact that you can hang these bad boys a recommended 30"-48" above the canopy depending on stage (I've had them @ 24" during flower and the girls LOVED it!) which is unlike the majority of the other LED's which have much closer recommended hanging heights, which in my mind affects the coverage area. My two 650R's absolutely ROCK my Gorilla 4x8! I wouldn't go back to CMH's or with anything else after seeing the results these powerhouses can provide!๐๐
Another product that absolutely hits it out of the park! I LOVE my Gorilla 4x8 and only wish I had a 5x9 to go with it so I could run photo's and auto's in separate tents OR use one for a mother to clone and the other for propagation. Gorilla tents are the best made period, with heavy duty components in every high stress area and because of the quality materials they use my 4x8 has over 3 dozen runs through it and still looks great with all the zippers, windows, vents and fabric withstanding the use and abuse without a hitch! I would recommend doing what I did and get the High CFM kit for any of their tents as it (a) prevents the tent from 'sucking in' which cuts down your grow space, and (b) it's great for attaching a Trellis Net to as you can adjust the height you want it at. Definitely a MUST HAVE! GROW STRONG!!! ๐ช๐

When I started this girl she was germinated along with 12 other seeds, four Auto's and Eight Photoperiods. During germination, I had a couple of seeds from both fail and had to replant.
I originally thought she was one of my Auto's, but when after 30+ days from seeds she wasn't show any signs of flowering, I figured that two of the tags must have gotten switched some how. I had given up on germinating the ASD after 3 seeds failed to germinate but apparently the fourth one was 'the charm'!
I moved her from my 'Autoflower' tent into my 4x8 'Photoperiod' tent with seven other ladies of various strains to keep her company under a 11/13 flowering light cycle under a HLG 650R with UVA bar and let her do her thing.
She immediately went into flower within 48 hours and never looked back! Because she was originally thought to be an Auto she was planted into a 5g fabric pot so I never expected her to be a big cultivar and this held true with her only reaching 22" in height.
She maintained great structure throughout flowering as a result of extensive LST, HST and Defoliation, developing several gorgeous cola's!
She was extremely easy to cultivate, never showing any signs of deficiency's and I'd highly recommend this strain to anyone from beginners to seasoned experts.
From the day she broke ground to when I trimmed and jarred her took 113 days and I'll cure her flowers for 4-6 weeks over which the terpene profile will mature and change. This is one of the most exciting parts to me as you finally get to see the results of all of the time and work you've put into the garden!
I really enjoyed cultivating this strain for the first time and will be running it again sometime in the future I'm sure! ๐๐๐
~๐Thank you so much for following along with me on this 'cannajourney' and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I. Grow strong and be Blessed! ๐๐๐~
@MrHightimes, Very observant ๐ง LOL! I keep forgetting to update the tag. The first one I tried to germinate failed, thus the discrepancy in dates. Thanks for the reminder! ๐๐๐ผ๐
@MrHightimes, I had some Humboldt Amherst Sour Diesel that I wanted to have in this run... 3 of 5 failed so I said F it and moved on! Fails sometimes happen but really suck the big one when like the whole batch ya have bombs!
@MrHightimes, IKR...slight possibility that during germinating the tags were mixed between it and a photoperiod, which would explain the lack of flower... ๐ฎ
