Nice relaxing and somewhat thought provoking smoke perfect for me to relax after work, I feel if I hadnt have been forced to chop a bit early it could have had more of the body stone I was looking for, I felt a bit the smell of the product was nicer than the flavour but I think maybe my first time drying could be to blame for this too. I was also a little dissapointed as I expected a huge knock out strength from it based on how it looked but again probably due to my own mistakes being new.

I started this grow with one of these lights and ended it with 2 of them, amazing for the price and suit my needs.

The OG kush was a free seed, it ran fine up until mid flower when it started having a few issues, decided to chop it a bit early based on its smell, I didnt like how it smelled drying and didnt really want to smoke it, however after a few weeks curing it was pretty nice weed. The GC was an absolute pleasure to grow from the start, I did mess up and over feed but she bounced right back and really impressed me how strong she seemed throughout, unfortunately I had to chop early due to unforseen situation and I think end result suffered a little, however the smoke went from acceptable to nice as she cured and just under 4 oz between them on the scales, I was very happy with the outcome for my first ever attempt :)

@SomeGeek so its not so much the ambient humidity which is an issue, the issue is if you have a lot of branches close together and big bud sites, it prevents good enough air flow and you will find inner buds starting to rot, it becomes really critical in the last 2-3 weeks and its the most depressing thing to happen, im only really telling you cause I just had this issue and lost about 1 oz of dried weight and forced to chop early, thankfully I harvested in time and only one plant was badly affected. I just see you have a lot of plants in together and they are due to grow a lot in next couple of weeks, hopefully you got it covered and its not an issue, as well I am totally new to indoor and you have a lot more xp so you will be reading the plants a lot better, I will try and keep up with your posts buddy thanks for your comments good luck! :) btw if you look at my 3wok diary we actually have plants going around the same age rn :) double twins

@SomeGeek,Sorry I think I misunderstood you sorry, sounds like you have it covered, the humidity thing becomes a real issue if you are tight on space though so I kinda realised that with so many plant in the tent the final few waterings are quite risky especially if the flowers are big, its just something to really watch for those last few weeks :) Ive tried to reply to you about 5 times but im so high its been difficult think I finally got there haha good luck!
