If this is actually Zkittlez and not CBD Lemon then yeah... actually it doesn't really matter i guess, it was a ridiculously easy grow, i would have liked a bit more height though, i think i read on herbies it was meant to be 70-100cm tall (this was a freebie seed from herbies head shop, they can't/won't say who the breeder is, they offer free seeds with every purchase, great company). This was way off from being that tall. I will grow it again for sure. Smell is average, theres not much to it, very "green" and maybe earthy? when touched it has a fruity sweet smell to it. I have a feeling it will smell beautiful after a decent cure. Never had a problem with disease or pests. This was only my 4th harvest, i'm still a huge newbie, hoping to improve from here. I'd like to achieve 3ounces per auto-flower, apparently that's not too difficult. just practice huh :)

Nutrients
does what it's supposed to do, this is only my 4th grow/harvest, and first grow using these nutrients. didn't notice any significant nute burn or deficincies so must be doing the job? last nutes i used were way less concentrated but noticed way more burns, so i think i prefer this stuff. Yeah, i do like how its really concentrated, 1.5ml of each while in heavy veg or bloom. easy.

Seed to harvest in 62 days - really can't complain about that huh! super easy grow, zero pest problems, quite a hungry strain it seems - I'm sure I over fed her a few times and saw maybe the smallest nute burn? definitely could have left her another week if I wanted to, but after checking the trichomes i saw 96% milk/cloudy and 4% amber (I know thats very specific lol), I thought about it for a while but seeing as i make edibles more than i smoke i figured now would be the best time since she'll have peak THC The mutated buds aren't great obviously, but to be honest i don't think they're gonna be as bad as everyone says, and besides, like i said i make edibles, it'll be fine for that. 163.83grams wet, that does include some heavy stems though. From what I've seen online people tend to say dry is 15-20% of wet weight, but im not so sure with this one. I haven't grown a lot, far from an expert, but whats drying looks substantially more than my first grow (2 plants, around 1.5oz each), I mean it doesn't look more than both but it looks more than 1 of them, so im thinking ill get at least 1.5oz dry. I'll report back obviously. They're drying in a cupboard with a fan underneath for circulation, it's not blasting directly onto them. I'd like a slower dry this time. Definitely going to post a picture of a cross section of the Fasciated buds. For some reason the whole question on whether this is actually Zkittlez or if its actually CBD Lemon (mixed up seeds, pretty sure i explained at the beginning of this diary). Guess i'll find out once I smoke it, Zkittlez is supposed to be 20% THC or more, while CBD Lemon is 17% THC 17% CBD. I realise those are "in an ideal world" numbers but i'm sure i'll be able to tell the difference once smoked. I decided it was Zkittlez a while ago based on smell, CBD Lemon is supposed to have a pronounced lemon smell, while Zkittlez smells like, well, skittles, Candy etc. This smells fruity, and honestly it's not super smelly, like unless you touch it, it doesn't smell a lot. who knows! I will definitely grow this again, whatever it is (i have seeds for both). Gorilla Glue I'd say has 2-3 weeks to go, she's actually bounced back which is cool, won't get a lot, 1 ounce max i reckon. Autos are pretty fun to grow though, even if the yields are low. I'm starting to appreciate quality over quantity more anyways. I have a Solomatic CBD seed about to sprout, and will be growing CBD Lemon (actually this time lol) next, but thats another diary :)
Smoke review
40 grams dry. i imagine ill lose another 5 grams after curing. early smoke report isn't much to write home about other than being strong. Flavours are obviously not there yet, nor the smell. needs a good cure. had 2 cones last night, got me well toasty. Plan is to keep around half to cure and use the other half to bake with. Could be the strain but judging by the look, i should have left it another week. ah well. might get a total of 3oz combined when gorilla glue is done. Would grow again, if i knew what it was. I've just popped a CBD Lemon auto seed in the ground so we'll see if its anything like this, if not, im pretty sure this is zkittlez. im still pretty sure because the high was intense, and cbd lemon has a 1:1 ratio of thc/cbd so my thought would be that it wouldnt be so strong. onwards and upwards

Hey there friend. Would you be alright with me offering some pointers? 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 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. I really think you would benefit from our tutorial series on youtube, Our channel is linked off our main grow diaries profile. We just put up week 3 of plant life care so you got time to subscribe and catch up before the next episode is out! I look forward to seeing you over there and hearing your feedback to better help me shape the tutorials Happy growing friend!

@LegacyMarketFarm, Hi friend, thanks for your comment and tips, i appreciate and welcome any and all constructive criticism, tips and suggestions :) Unfortunately there's not a lot i can do about the temperature swings at the moment, it's winter where i live and my grow space is in the garage (which is very cold and has no heating). I could run a heater/invest in temp control systems but to be honest i'm just a hobbyist grower, not too keen to spend any more money. Plus the garage has flooded before, so i don't feel comfortable running any sort of heating down there. The lights are only off for 4 hours, and the tent only gets down to the low temp of 13-14degrees Celsius for around an hour or so, i checked at about 2 hours into 'lights off' and the temp was 16.5degrees. Node spacing seems to be pretty good so far, there's a lot of bud sites and she's (zkittlez) is growing about an inch a night. So yeah, im fine with how it is at the moment :) and once winters over and things start to warm up a bit ill give photoperiods another go, until then its autos at 20/4 :) thanks again for your input.

Nice grow and I enjoyed reading the reviews. I might try Gorilla Glue at some point after reading this. πŸ‘πŸ‘Œ

@VertiGrow, thanks :) its a pretty popular strain apparently, personally its far from my favourite though, although that could be because of my stressed plant growing quite airy buds, still trying to unlock the solid nug achievement lol
