Growing it

Strong
Growing was way easier with a decent full spectrum light although I suffered from using just one weak light to grow 3 plants. They still grew big, produced decent sized buds and bounced back stronger from any problem they faced along the way. I'll update on how it smokes once done with drying. Smoke Update - Very mellow for a mid level smoke, stronger locked me into the sofa and got me ready for sleep. Easy enough to smoke throughout the day in the right strengths. Very citrus/peppery smoke, not too harsh but I didn't fully cure it so some of the flavours wouldn't be fully developed. Still did the job on the smoke front but I learned so much from this go round that I've recycled into my next grow.

Reviews. Nutrient
For growing in coco it took a bit of trial and error to get the amounts right and adjusting for the strains needs but overall very simple once you get the hang of it.
Used over the week as I structed I noticed much fatter buds within just a few days.

I've only harvested Samus and Scully so far as Ripley looked like she could do with a little more time. She's in the tent with the Tangerines so she didn't have to witness the harvest. They're all set up for drying right now, they'll probably be ready for trimming in a few days. By then I'll be looking at adding Ripley to the drying room but will have to keep them in separate curing jars. I'll update on the weights by the end of the week and hopefully have some trim to sample. Update - Ripley joined the rest with a few days drying on the stem then trimmed down and dried a few days more before getting fired in the jar. I didn't cure it very long at all, temptation got the better of me but even without the aging it was a lovely smoke, a little on the flavourful side but that's down to impatience. I've got one Northern Light Auto Express seed left that I'll see how it does in the tent next time round.

Grow Questions

I noticed a bit of curling on some of the upper leaves. 1st time round I'd had this when my heat was a little high but this is more just the tips than full on taco leaf. Any suggestions on what's up? Also might've overwateres them slightly if that helps 😅

heat stress does this as does light stress in my experience. May need to fix the temps and back the light off a bit. Good Luck!

So I noticed some light spotting/discolouration on the upper leaves of Samus. I've never seen anything like it before but is it normal or something to freak out about? Are the leaves mottling?

I've got no idea what it was but a few leaves showed up with holes. A couple of small ones and some longer. Some see through spots showed up too so reckon there was defo something munching away in there. I've sprayed down both sides with a pest controller and defoliated the worst affected. Seems to have worked so far!

Cheers folks! Any advice is welcome. No tent or extraction so 🤞 there's not too many pitfalls
