Nice outdoor grow, how are you doing with bugs. I have been pretty lucky so far. If they are getting to tall try tying down the main. Do it a hour after watering. Good luck

Could not recommend a better strain for outdoor cultivation, especially for beginners. The smell during the grow was lowkey, unique and not pungent/skunky. I got the purple pheno, somewhat hybridy but functional. It helps me sleep, not because it makes me super drowsy but because it's relaxing. It kind of smells like watermelon pre-chop, heavy pine after the cut, then they kind of mix once dry. Super complex taste, but it's so good - stuff from the dry sift smells/tastes incredible, sweet and citrusy. 226 dried and trimmed

sensi wasnt exaggerating when they say this is a resistant, low maintenance strain. I wasnt able to pay attention to it for its 1st month and a half, but it grew perfectly. Withstood 40ºc heat wave, a major hail storm and 10 days straight of rain/high humidity mid flower. fast flowering esp for a sativa. definitely could have left it go for about a week longer in retrospect, but i have 100g curing and more than half the harvest left drying. really a must try strain, would love to see what a more experienced grower could do with it. I think a bit of training + pruning would help get less popcorn.

@Pjm70, As of now, absolutely no infestations - aphids seem to be steering clear. definitely have some stuff munching, but nothing bad. found a couple of mites today and some gnats but that is to be expected.
Thanks for the advice too, i've been debating tying the tops

Good luck. I’ve been wanting to try growing a Durban Poison but haven’t had a chance yet. Autos are easier for outdoor in most places, but this is a good choice for an outdoor plant. Cheers.

@Northern_Ent, she's an absolute trooper. I chose durban specifically to grow outdoors because it's supposed to be extremely resilient and low maintenance - perfect for my first outdoor grow. Hope she starts flowering soon, and is as mold resistant as advertised.
I'm actually surprised at how few diaries there are for durban

@musashi_miyamoto, it is hard !! I never check the crystal I just go by smell and taste . I like to pick small bud earlie to see what it’s like then repeat until desired trait is found . Good luck with the amber

@CroNicGman, yeah at this point I’m checking trichomes. Definitely learned a lot for my next grow season - no more open soil for photos, too hard to manage, especial with a 2m plant
