Welcome to another week of flower with "Ava". She is doing quite well in her converted growspace. A few bucks and creativity and you can turn just about anything into a more than suitable growspace. I top dressed with Alfalfa Meal, Fish Bone Meal and Langbeinite.

November 7, 2021, Sunday. Day of rest.
Another flawless week with "Ava". As I've stated previously, she is an absolute breeze to grow. She doesn't need to feed, she doesn't get pissy when she's thirsty. Just the soldier for any grower.
November 10, 2021, Wednesday. A bit of foxtailing going on. Checked PAR, Humidity and Temp all are well within range, this may be genetics. I know Purple strains can tend to foxtail. I think it's cool 😎
November 11, 2021, Thursday. I may move "Ava" into the "Desk Growspace" some time this week, because the space I have her in is technically my "Veg Room". The "Veg Room" is a converted TV Entertainment Center. My motto has and always will be "Reduce Reuse Recycle". It's Fabulous for your pockets and even better for the 🌍Earth.

December 4, 2021, Saturday. See ya next week!
I've been rather ill, growmies, please send some healing vibes my way. I've lost 2 grows because I haven't much strength to get out of bed these days. I never thought, "What plan do you have in the event you're unable to care for your grow?"
It took me 3 hours last night to do what should have taken 20 minutes.
I just chopped her last night. She's has significantly sized colas, not so much heft though. Her aroma is a deep kind of stinky, you know the kind, reminiscent of baby poo 💩.
I don't wet trim and I really don't need to, the WeedSeedsExpress.com strains I've grown, seem to not be overly leafy and I remove leaves prior to harvest.
I have her disassembled and hanging in our "Drying Chamber" which is a repurposed portable automatic washing machine box, clothesline, paperclips, humidifier, and cheap inline fan. It works splendidly and didn't cost us a penny.
I'll have more updates on the smoke in a couple of weeks.
She was a most pleasant plant with an easy temperament that hits the ground running. She didn't require feeding or attention and as she went into flower, she started packing massive colas. I can say keep the temp low as she will foxtail on you.
A great plant and will definitely grow again.
Thank you, WeedSeedsExpress.com
Hey! Happy growing my friend! I hope you do well and get some good results! I will come by sometime to see your progress!

Peace & love L.S.T
