This 2-gallon run was harvested at 80 days, wet trimmed, and placed in the HerbsNow dryer for 80 hours. After a few days curing, the bud has gotten louder and more hydrated. Has a faint orange creamsicle smell with a diesel background, and hopefully the smells intensify during the cure. (Dry yield=34 g/1.2 oz.) Will update at different points of the cure. Smooth smoke after five days, and it hits similar to the old Sour Diesel I used to have 20 years ago; a nice balanced hybrid that helps with anxiety and mild pain relief. Overindulging will lead to couchlock/naptime!

Reviews. Nutrient
Not sure it helped very much. I soaked the seeds in straight URB solution for 45 minutes. Rinsed and placed in paper towel moistened with URB water for germination. The germination took around 18-24 hours longer than with my normal plain-water routine (24 hours soak then paper towel). Haven't explored using it during feeding in either the veg or bloom cycles.
A solid regimen. I follow TaNg's easy auto schedule, but only used B-52 during the seedling phase to avoid extra nitrogen being added to the normal nutrient feed. Likewise, I only used Voodoo Juice during the seedling phase.
Great stuff. Kept everything healthy, especially with the pH problems during this grow.
Used from the first feeding until harvest. Ultra-dependable and has minimal nitrogen.
Still comparing this vs. Voodoo Juice. I'll run it for one more grow, but it seemed to improve the plant and prevented any major nutrient burn or deficiency.
Reviews. Lamp
Solved my lighting issues from past grows. Barely ran it past 65%, and being able to move the driver outside of the tent kept temperatures 2-3 degrees F lower, which was a big difference for me on the hottest of days. Extremely happy with the coverage and intensity!
I used this UVB light three times during the grow, but the manufacturer instructions are tailored toward photoperiods. Three 15-minute sessions caused severe damage to the sativas growing in the same tent, so I'll probably start with 1-3 minute sessions during the next grow and increase from there. The indica-leaning and hybrid plants still showed signs of stress, but they recovered pretty quickly.
Reviews. Tent
A sturdy tent with great exhaust/intake options. I wish it had a smaller port nearer the bottom for electrical cords (fans, etc.).

This Orange Diesel was the rock. It took massive pH swings and UVB overexposure like a champ, while producing the stickiest buds I've ever handled. I was surprised that this 2-gallon grow produced about 1 oz. of dried bud, while my previous 3-gallon grows produced 2-2.5 oz. yields. The buds are pretty compact and dense--maybe 9.5/10 on that scale. This plant would be perfect for a 3-gallon grow. Since it's pretty compact, I can imagine a SOG grow with 6 plants in a 2x4 would work really well!
