Grew vigorously through veg, produced incredible smells during flower, and is oozing with trichomes. I wish I could do the smell justice but it's hard to describe. Buds were the largest or second largest of the grow alongside a large Blue Gelato 41 from Barney's Farms a worthy adversary by the looks of it. However, that big Gelato does not come close to the smell factor these plants are packing. My smaller Blue Gelato, maybe, but the big one was lacking (just the pheno I'm guessing?). CC#1, the smell had a fruity sweetness, with a cream like smell alongside notes of some kind of sandalwood or perfume-like incense, and during harvest notes of pine also became evident with agitation of the buds and stems. The plant had longer internodal spacing than her sister, but took up a massive surface area, largest in the tent I believe. Wet weight after a rough wet trimming session came out at a hulking 821g! No wonder the branches were bending all over the place and unable to support the weight. I greatly enjoyed coming into the tent each day to see this plant, it faded beautifully even though I wasn't able to reduce the temperatures that much during the last couple weeks of flower. CC#2 had a very pungent smell with defined notes of grapefruit (took a long time to recognize that smell), it also had the notes of sandalwood/incense/perfume that CC#1 had but those were more like background notes on this girl didnt smell much of the creamyness that I got from the CC#1. This pheno didn't fade the colors as much and also had tighter internode spacing. She also appeared to grow more leafy, not by much, but noticeable. Wet weight for this plant was 623g, less than CC#1, but understandable because it did not extend the same surface area and the leafier structure shaded lower sections more than CC#1, which allowed the best light penetration of any of my plants to lower bud sights. I'm extremely excited to get these girls dried and cured for a smell and smoke report. Currently these 2 plants are beginning a slow dry which I'm guessing will take 2 to 3 weeks in an environment with 55-60% rH at 65-70 degrees Fahrenheit. I hung each branch as a whole, and they will be cured for at least 2 weeks in glass jars before they are tasted. Patience is a virtue ,and I will cut no corners!

This stuff is great... HOWEVER, when water is first added a natural fungal bloom occurs, which can, will, and did kill some of my seedlings. My tip would be to add this to your soil or coco before growing, add water and let "cook" for a few days then mix thoroughly to ensure no clumps of fungi build up that could be fatal to seedlings. Other than that results speak for themselves.
Not sure what the buds would look like without it, but it looks as though it boosted them through bloom.
I really only used this during 1 week early in veg when I thought there mightve been a magnesium deficiency. Didn't have to use it again during the grow.
Provides Calcium and Magnesium alongside the phosphorus, never ran into any deficiencies. Mixed into coco alongside some other dry nutrients and boy do these plants have a strong defined aroma. I'm sure this helped bring out those incredible and indescribable smells.
Used this during veg and the plants grew rapidly and never had deficiencies, so I'm sure this helped improve and maintain microbial populations in the soil.
Reviews. Lamp
The plants speak for themselves, they thrived under this light. Covers a 4x4 very well, and is an affordable option.
Reviews. Tent
Held up well, no issues with zippers or anything. Side access is convenient, and great for cooling off the tent by opening all three sides.

Update to come with dry weights after 2-3 weeks, then smoke report after cure!!

Hey there friend. Would you be alright with me offering some pointers? I would still like to share this information with you as I try to give this to all new growers on here, So dont mind me! So cannabis plants LOVE heat and humidity. It is the buds that hate it. In veg we want to take advantage of this fact to help our plants grow along much quicker and more vigorously. In veg we can look for temps of 79-84 MAX with lights on & no more than 9 degrees less with lights off. If we allow for too much temperature swing between lights on and lights off while the plant is still growing vertically up to day 20 of flower, We will cause the plant to stretch ALOT which we do not want. So in veg & early flower, Keeping our temperature gaps nice and close between lights on and off is key. Utilizing humidity in our rooms during veg will also help out a lot with more rapid growth but we must introduce it properly. In our rooms we have our temperature and humidity set-points, But when we combine those 2 it forms a third set-point which is the most important & that is called VPD, Vapor pressure deficit. I really believe you will find the answers to your leaf curling within this. I strongly recommend every new grower or old grower who has not learned it yet, To study and understand it & implement it into your room, Logging your numbers daily. https://cerescann.com/importance-of-measuring-vpd/ For soil, We generally want to go for a PH of 6.1. This website does a GREAT job of illustrating it with a nice graph & very good detailed explanation for soil. https://autoflowerseedshop.com/cannabis-ph-chart-guide/ As we briefly touched on before, During veg & early flower we want our temperature gap's nice and tight to avoid stretch. Why exactly our plants stretch in response to this is a genetic trigger being activated by the environmental stress essentially telling the plant the end of the season is closer than it really is. In veg & early flower the plant is still in its first stage of development which is to grow up wide and tall so when it produces seed, It can cast them out nicely. Remember, Whether we are growing our plants for seed or bud their genetic responses do not change as they gh sidedo not know any different. Once the plant has finished that first stage of growth by weeks 4-6 of flower with most strains, It is by day 20 of flower. Autoflowers you have to watch for it, But once the plant has finished this goal its new mission is to focus 100% on producing nice big flower clusters & to get very sticky so it can attract pollen to it successfully. So once that vertical growth is finished, We actually now want to begin to expose our plants to larger temperature swings between lights on and lights off. This will help activate that genetic response and allow us to draw out the most potential from the strain utilizing the plants genetic triggers to environmental stresses at the right times. We can also take this a step further with doing light deprivation in the last 2 weeks using less light to simulate cloud cover. Very cold feed temps on the last flush is very good too. If you do not have them already, Get yourself a good PAR meter & thermal laser temp gun to monitor your plant top temperatures & optimize how much light your plants are getting. We are currently in the middle of producing a very comprehensive tutorial series for everybody to learn from & understand how to grow the highest level craft cannabis all on their own. If this interests you please check out our youtube and subscribe. The first 2 episodes are out the next one is coming in a few days. If you should ever have any questions or need any help, Please feel free to follow my profile and shoot me a DM. I will gladly help you with the pull down & make sure you get the best quality harvest possible as it is the most important step of the entire process. Happy growing friend!
