After harvest report: Nirvana Blue Dream was pretty much a cruise control grow. The only real problem was my heavy hand when I snapped one of the main two branches completely off. I reattached it with masking tape and splinted it with a small piece of wood and sure enough it healed and produced a nice bud. It was far behind its twin but it did grow and it did flower. Might have cost me a half ounce or more. After the break I was very apprehensive to train and sculpt this plant the way I envisioned mostly because it was the only plant I had going at the time so I figured not to mess with it too much more. I was also somewhat skeptical of the single 315w light. Although operating cost was very low and heat was never an issue I'd still love to know what kind of bud weight I lost compared to a 1000w HPS. My next grow Im going to do 4-5 weeks veg + 1 week of bloom under the 315w then finish blooming with a 1000w HPS. If I get bud weight close to a 315w or a 630w then I'll be done with HPS, I just couldn't believe how I could keep a small space in the 70s with just a 6" exhaust fan.

All in all decent grow, good seed, good robust plant, easy to manage, stretch was very manageable and the plant was easy going on nutes. This is an excellent strain for new growers.

Interesting experiment coming up about CMH, I'm using one 315W too. I can't really consider 600W hps because the lamp distance of 60cm is annoying, and it's probably too hot to handle in my room. I may add some COB LED light, but I am very happy with the CMH bud. Looks similar to this one in structure (From my Critical XXL grow)

Hey bro! Awesome grow! I’m running in the Fastbuds iPhone contest , if you could stop by my 2xGSC-COCO journal and leave a comment I’d really appreciate it! Goodluck!

From the leaf damage on week 8 - it looks reminiscent of either a leafhopper (strip damage), or spider mites (pinprick damage). I just finished the same strain and they were susceptible to the same thing, esp the spider mites. Just keeping them in check is a chore (complete removal seems almost impossible), but it doesn't affect yield or degrade performance. Check the undersides of the leaves. I hold mine by the stem and rotate them 180. If you do find them, they'll look like dots - adults are easy enough to kill just by gently smearing the bottom side of the leaf, the eggs can be harder depending on how many there are. Sometimes I'd just pinch the whole leaf. Leafhoppers hide on the stems in the middle of the plant and will come out to eat at night.

Thanks for the info. I'll check them out tonight under a jewler's loop. But it seems to have more or less gone away, I haven't found any leaves over the past week or so that has similar damage.
