Girl Scout Cookies came out fantastic! Both plants yielded almost identical 44 grams which is a bit less than I thought but under the circumstances I’m pretty happy. The buds cane out great, they are very dense and frosty. High is strong with these girls so I would say nighttime smoke as it is pretty heavy. Really pleased with these will grow them again soon! Next time will hopefully get bigger plants/yield and avoid all the heat/pest issues as well. For as imperfect as this grow was they performed absolutely great!!

Reviews. Nutrient
Never anything bad to say about about GHE always good stuff and easy to use. Was my first time with Flora Series I have a lot left so will be using it again at least on next grow possibly next two. I like this product.
I always seem to get purple stems from Cal Mag related issues. I was using GHE brand CaMg+ before and still had issues so definitely not blaming Blue Planet. I plan on trying their full nutrient line pretty soon so will see how that goes.
Reviews. Lamp
Overall this strain performed very well considering growing environment was less than ideal with heat and gnats etc. Even with those problems (temps regularly hitting 90 in the tent) they gave me no issues whatsoever. They never slowed down, looked weak/stunted, and by the end they had fat frosty nuggets weighing down the branches. About 44 grams each so I’m not too unhappy, although compared to my run with photo period plants I yielded about 2/3 total (I got 97 off 1 plant last round). But I did cut about 5-6 weeks off and I think I got danker buds this round too so may end up being a quality over quantity kind of deal. Anyway I am really happy with these girls they were a breeze to grow and I will grow some more GSC from FastBuds in the future for sure! Hopefully with more experience with autos and better environment etc I can bring up those yield #’s. I am about to pop FastBuds Gorilla Glue next round so we will see!!

@Quexos totally agree with everything you said bro especially the timing for running both I think you’re spot on that I should start autos a couple weeks the start photos in order to have autos finish in time for light switch for the photos. Worst case scenario the autos get 12/12 for a couple weeks which I don’t think is ideal but I don’t think it’ll fuck them up too bad either. Hopefully I can avoid having to find out lol. Stay tuned my friend I’ll have them up and running next week may not have any good pictures then but seeds will definitely be in the ground next week!!

@TreeTent310, Yeah, you are like me. I have my grows lined up a few down the road. It takes so long to go through a grow cycle, you get bored. Google Calendar!
I looked up that Black Jack strain.
I really want to see that one grow! Some of the grow pictures show really blue/purple buds! This would be perfect for a winter grow when your grow room is in the high 60s.
I've only grown the 1 auto. I am going to have to grow a few more before I make any real judgments. I really liked some of the Seedsman autos. (Onyx, Sour Diesel Haze) So far I like growing photos because I have so much more control.
I don't know about growing the two together. I'd have to put that on a calendar to see how it would work. I suppose you would start the auto, then start the photo when the auto is in mid flower. Otherwise you will have this really long veg period.

You will never be able to buy GSC at the dispensary again after harvesting those buds!

@Quexos, if I am honest I do kind of miss it! My doctor's rec just expired this month and I am considering renewing just in case I want to go I will still have the option! I am with you it is so surreal to go in there and pickup all sorts of goodies. It took me a good year or so of going for it to feel "normal". BUT they raised prices/taxes beginning of this year (legalization) and for the amount I smoke was getting hard to justify the budget to the wife haha. That was actually what started on me on the road to growing. I looked into it and figured i could produce enough for myself if I tried. My first run ended up with about 10 ounces that I am still working my way through now. I even gave some to friends/family as well. I agree though having only 3 strains to choose from can get stale/boring. Variety is the spice of life as they say!!

@TreeTent310 I still go to the dispensaries. I like to have a lot of variety. Once I've completed a few more grows, I should be more self-sustainable.
I also like going to dispensaries because it's like a bucket list thing. I'm an old guy. The idea that I can walk into a store and buy nice bud is like a dream come true! The first few times I bought herb in Colorado, I was so paranoid. I thought for sure I was going to jail.

@Quexos, that’s the plan! Honestly I don’t plan on going to dispensary ever again if I can help it just have to keep growing and harvesting!

do you find that having the jar half full helps
like 1
TreeTent310commented6 years ago
@ChefGreenThumbGardenofWeedin, I do think it helps for the curing to not totally fill your jars for sure! I usually do about 1/2-2/3 full for the curing, mainly just to avoid any potential for bud rot by over filling them or having them too tightly packed while they’re still moist. Once these are truly cured (probably end of this week) I’ll put them in one full jar for each plant with a Boveda pack to keep them fresh. I’d say 2/3 full is a good benchmark and like the absolute max I would fill during curing at least.

@Sgtoso, thanks stay tuned I should have harvest results in the next few weeks. So far I have to say I’d definitely recommend FastBuds they’ve been a breeze even in less than perfect conditions (heatwave). Have had really easy time with this grow all things considered. Just hoping I get couple O’s per plant and I’ll be completely sold!

Excellent job in the sweltering heat! I like your version of LST. It didn't seem to stunt the plant at all. The auto I'm growing can reach a little over 3', but she is close to harvest and is only 10". I'm not sure how the stunted growth will affect the harvest.
