This cultivar bulks up nicely if you give her the extra time that Mephisto recommends. Through flowering she gives a nice butter cream frosting smell. After a two week cure, she is very smooth and the frosting scent carries into the taste well. Unfortunately in this case the high was only "meh". If you know the wedding cake strains, you know that they should have a bit more punch. Could have absolutely been grower errors as we made a few. IMO, if you want Wedding Cake, grow a photo-period plant.

Reviews. Nutrient
We were not overly impressed with Advanced Nutes for this grow. We had some issues using it for fertigation. Admittedly, we did make a few mistakes. Generally speaking, AN has quite a bad reputation in the cannabis community for its excessive number of offerings and inflated prices. We will be using up what we have in the next grow and switching to a different line after that.
Love this stuff. Just be careful how you use it if you are running Autopots and fertigation using mineral nutes. Never top water if you are bottom feeding your plants. It will disturb salt layers in the media and will cause an overfed condition.
Reviews. Lamp
Great light for the money. 310 watts is plenty in a MarsHydro 3x3 tent. I do see the benefit of using a higher wattage bar light. I think one is in our future for sure. At that point we will simply use this as a veg light only.
Reviews. Tent
Great tent. Advertised as a 3x3 but is actually oversized at 39" x 39". Everything looks and feels very sturdy. Great buy and highly recommended.

Hey there. So, I tried answering this earlier but I was banned. So here's round 2. I've invested heavy into co2. And when delving into that. You really don't wanna go cheap pal. As I suspect. That you just don't wanna know your levels but are looking to enhance them. Well, say you get a meter and it reads 1500ppm and it's over 5000 cause your plants are locked out of photosynthesis (which if you don't have the right environment extra co2 beyond ambient level will just increase and increase and be deadly in the environment. Co2 stays low to the ground so, any pets small kids and so on, are the 1st to come into contact. So, I would highly suggest you spend more or close to 200e on a well known brand. So many reviews I seen on amazon with meters giving much lower reading that what was really there. My pro leaf. Its one of the best on the market that doesn't cost as much as the Eco / growtech but just as good. If not better you'll find they all use parts of the same reg vivoson. It'll set u back 290e can go up to 500$ on some sites. You'll get a fuzzy logic controller that reads co2 by the second. And is as safe as they come. If there's a fault. It turns off.

The only leaf in the entire tent looking a little mad. My instinct says leave it and see if any others pop up. Thoughts?

Looks like Septoria. Clip it and spray a copper foliar spray just in case. Dont want it spreading and you can avoid future issues at the cost of and one fan leaf...

Looking for experience with the Autopot system. This is the first time I have used it. 12gal reservoir. I change out the res weekly but by the end of the week it has a foul smell to it. Cleaned each time with half bottle of 3% Peroxide. Is this par for the course? Thanks!

depending on size and frequency this may or may not be an option for your context.. i find topping off at at half capacity or more in my rez allows me to delay cleaning a bit longer than letting it go down to 10 gallons or so and refilling (55 gal drum). I refill at 25gal. the rez is in a different room which is cooler than grow area. the heat from powerheads that stir the water have less impact on a larger volume and i add 30-35 gallons of winter tap water that is fairly cold every 3-4 days at peak use. the key is the temperature. if it's warmer you will have to clean more often. also, can adjust the volume you use and just refill more frequently with fresh water. have a volume that lasts 4-5 days instead of a week. if you can't avoid it, then work around it. adding h2o2 to the res will definitely help. not sure how much and how often, but it breaksdown fairly fast and faster in 'hard' water which is what fertilized water would be considered.

I hate admitting this but the best grow I ever did was with Advanced Nutrients Grow Micro Bloom, 1 burple light and 2 Mars most inexpensive light. If there are any doubts look at my first diary and the week 11 or 10 video. 2 Fast BudsvGG at end of video they're tied down, RocBudInc Purple Roc V1 white label. Crystal meth x Purple Roc Berry and the very first plant Mephisto Hubbabubbasmellascope. 4 plants under those cheap lights and cheap Nutrients no supplements yielded a hair over 6 pounds cured bud. I haven't been able to repeat that since and get more confused after every grow. I get close but not like my 1st grow.
