Growing it
Easy
Resistance
Strong
Buds are frosty and have a pretty decent consistency. A little fluffier but some of the larger nugs are fairly dense but nothing crazy. Smell is pretty mild (this is no knock on the strain, most likely from not being in an ideal environment and water only) but is pleasant nonetheless. Very earthy with hints of citrus. Taste is similar to the smell. Both could have definitely been improved had the drying temp and humidity been more consistent. Smokes alright right out of the drying tent, but should improve with a little jar time hopefully. This was mainly just for fun with minimal input so to get any kind of harvest is considered a success.

Reviews. Nutrient
Great Phosphorus boost during early flower. Also works great in compost teas/microbe multipliers
Love the sugars added in flower, although for this run this wasn't used regularly or in a regular schedule so the results weren't as profound.
Reviews. Lamp
Great light! Highly recommend HLG and this light specifically was plenty of power!

Harvested these and dried them for 2 weeks. The largest of the stems were snapping with a clear break and no bend. Did best to keep as close to 60 degrees F and 60% Humidity but it definitely fluctuated a bit during the dry. Smell is fairly mild but is pleasant. Has a real earthy aroma with a hint if citrus. Smell could improve after some jar time so will keep monitoring that. Taste and smoke are alright, definitely could be better and would have been had the drying humidity and temp been consistently at 60F and 60%. It fluctuated up to around 70F at times with humidity dipping to 45% and then sometimes up to 70%. This absolutely had a negative effect on the taste and smell. The overall grow went pretty smooth given the conditions and very basic setup for most of their cycle. Was mostly water only the entire run so definitely happy with the yield and outcome given that and the other circumstances that could have absolutely been better. This was the first time growing an autoflower, was very easy since there is no worry about switching the light but they really did not take any shorter than a photoperiod plant and the yield was definitely less. Would be interested in trying again in better conditions but definitely prefer photoperiod plants so far. Was a fun learning experience that will help the next run go a lot smoother with better results!! #1 which ran into the most issues yielded 55.7 grams #2 yielded 67.7 grams Total of 123.4 grams or 4.4 dried ounces. Thanks for following along the first of many growdiaries!! All input, questions, comments, likes, interactions were greatly appreciated!!

@CannabisFarmerGuyDude, nice really appreciate you. I think thats agood plan for now and for the next run 💚 Big up brother

@BudBoutique, Thanks man, I'll give a follow back! Yeah I agree, I think some jar time will help for sure. By the time the next run is finished I should have a better way to control the drying environment. Gonna dry the next run in the grow room which has a controller and is easier to regulate temp and humidity. Soooo stoked for these Big Body Gelati from Covert! You too bud, smoke up!

@CannabisFarmerGuyDude, appreciate your long answer bro. Yeah im same not always exactly 60/60 but just curing them a few more weeks make them more better. Just get them darkness and low temp and burp as usual. And trust me 4-8 weeks make a huge difference even though its not easy to keep hands away haha have a super stoney weekend buddy - will follow u straight :)

Rather, do you have a root blockage problem, probably due to a pH imbalance in the soil... have you checked?
CannabisFarmerGuyDude
CannabisFarmerGuyDudecommenteda year ago
@Seedsman, oh definitely familiar with pH and absorption rates, but since I am avoiding sulfate based, soluble, ionic, fertilizers/nutrients and didn't provide them with adequate container size or high quality soil (just in Roots Organic), I don't think there is much that can be changed this late in the cycle unless I want to introduce some bottled solution. Had they been in say at least 15 gallon or preferably 30 gallon containers, with a compost based complete soil that provided the plants everything they could need for the entire cycle and more, the effects of slightly too alkaline water would probably be negligible. Next run is already set up for this so all these issues should be avoided next time!

@CannabisFarmerGuyDude, that sound a bit high... ideal would be under 7.0 Have you read any table of absorption of elements depending on Ph? It would be good for you to see the optimal ranges, there are many on Google if you haven't done so. 🙏

@Seedsman, was able to get a pH off the runoff this morning. Was reading 7.6 so while a little more basic than ideal, that wouldn't cause too many issues would it?

Nice work sorry about your issues with bud rot, buds looking so dense, wish you nothing more than good until harvest!! 🙌
CannabisFarmerGuyDude
CannabisFarmerGuyDudecommenteda year ago
@Seedsman, Thank you! It has been eradicated, thankfully it was less severe than initially expected. Only lost a few pieces of a couple colas but saved the rest. Did a massive defoliation and inspection right after this last post so the last week or so should go smooth. Also was able to move them to the new grow room so the humidity and temp are a lot easier to manage. Have humidity sitting around 40-45% now and temp consistently around 75-77F which is a lot better and should prevent any new issues from coming up the last week or two. The buds that are remaining are really dense and frosty!! Can't wait to try it!
