This experimental Octopot run was harvested at 78 days, wet trimmed, and placed in the HerbsNow dryer for 84 hours. After a few days curing, the bud has gotten a bit more hydrated. Pre-dry had a gassy grape soda smell; going into the cure, the smells are more sour grapes and yeasty bread. (Dry yield=30.3 g/1.07 oz.)
Will update at different points during the cure, if the stash lasts! This is the most euphoric strain I've ever had, with a spicy gingerbread aftertaste. You'll get stuff done with a more intense focus. (Can be pretty psychoactive if you overindulge. . . )

Nutrients
Was surprised by the pH swings in the reservoir. There's almost always nitrogen and phosphorous issues in early to mid-flower with this regimen, and adding B-52 and more Big Bud would probably help things.
I've had phosphorous issues during the 3 grow sessions--8 total plants--this has been used. Won't be using again.
This is the first time I've used Orca, and it probably kept the plant steady during a tough flowering period. Not as effective as the Great White powder I use for my normal grows, but important to have.
Lights
Tents
This is the third grow in this tent, and it's sturdy--no problems at all. Worth every penny.
Really happy about getting more than an oz. from this grow, and I had my typical issues with GSC crosses! The bud is top-shelf: medium density and extremely frosty. Trimming was a breeze--took about 45 minutes for the wet trim. I probably spend more time cleaning the scissor hash off than trimming!
I'll only use the Octopot with familiar strains in the future. So, it fails the lazy grower test! But I can imagine some previous experience with strains would allow for quicker nutrient level corrections.
If you have any Sour Stomper (or Sour Stomper crosses), grow them! You won't be disappointed. . . .
Thanks for dropping by! ๐๐ฝ๐ฟ

@Mr420, I heard that they get thirsty during flower, and I think you're right. May actually try four 3 gallons with the auto-fill and scrog to get four autos in my 2x4. I'm becoming an Octopot believer! ๐
