This plant was a very easy grow. It just didn't stretch much at all which I wasn't expecting. I haven't tried any buds from the final harvest as I am waiting on some curing to happen first. I did try a but from a week prior to harvest and it wound up giving more of a head high. The high wasn't really anxiety-inducing but made me a little antsy and not want to sit still. Id imagine The high will be a bit different since the harvest was a week later and there was more amber.

Reviews. Nutrient
This brand of nutrients works so well. So easy to measure out and feed your plants. Didnt notice any deficiencies and growth was great.I also used bud explosion but my plants didnt really seem to like it much as it lead to some nutrient burn. If my plants were hungrier it would have been great for them.

This grow was a great first grow! This strain was super easy to grow coupled with using megacrop. The plants were also very resient to all the training I did. Topping didnt even slow em down. They also stayed very short and bushy even without training. My internodal space was generally an inch or so. I definitely recommend this strain to begginer growers as it was so easy to grow and got decent yields.

Dude(ette), if youโ€™ve never done this before then I can tell your right now this is text book 4-way lst/topping/manifolding. Really impressive and great diary on it so far! Love the strain choice as well. Gonna follow along cause this ones gonna turn out great ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿ‘

@souljasam, np, I share the same commitment as well. It was a good call letting it grow out too. If you read her tutorial on defoliation she makes further mention of this as well ie. donโ€™t necessarily cut off everything as u never know what can eventually sprout into a full blown cola. Either way, excellent results for a first grow dude! ๐Ÿ‘

@TheBudWhisperer, Yeah, I've never done any of this before. I just followed Nebula Haze's manifold guide on grow weed easy. I actually wound up with 4 extra tops because some lower growth exploded and reached the canopy. So I figured why not let it go and see how they do. I think its safe to say it was a good idea as they are growing just as much as the other tops. I'm super happy to hear that it looks so good. I strive to do anything I do well and have put a lot of effort into this grow. Thanks for the follow!

Nice work dude, the harvest looks great. That mainline is crazy! How much did you pull down off that 1 plant?
souljasam
souljasamcommented6 years ago
Not sure. Wasnt that organized. That plant deff had the biggest and densest buds though.

Wow amazing so far. That training is perfect. Just flipped my girls and hope they are half as good as this! Thinking of putting mine under a scrog as they have actually stretched more than expected. Keep up the good work!
souljasam
souljasamcommented6 years ago
Hey, thanks. Ive been so happy that I haven't had any significant issues. If your plants are still short but still stretching a scrog would do some good. If they have already stretched a bunch and are almost done idk that a scrog would do much.Either way good luck with your grow!

@XpectResistance, Thanks. Its been interesting to watch it grow through the training so far. coming up on doing my 2nd topping and stripping to get the 8 tops that I want. Good luck when you eventually try manifolding, it's been super easy.

@Stinkfox, Thanks! I'm actually just starting week 4. Just came across this site and figured it would be awesome to document it in a way that's easy to share. I can't wait to try this strain as I've never had it before. I'm also excited to start my next grow already. Got some high CBD hiydrow and early amnesia planned for my next grow.

@Tonino, I have actually never gardened a day in my life. I just did a lot of research and made sure I knew what I was doing before I tried it. Thanks for the compliment. It's good to hear the work I have put in is actually good work.
