Just harvested today. She was pretty easy to grow too. Wasn't paying too much attention to her as I was concentrating on the other two for the most part but as long as you keep the Nitrogen levels to a minimum when feeding her then you should be alright.
Placed her in her cardboard drying box and we'll see the results next week!
Update: Finished the drying. She's not as stinky as I would've hoped. Ended up jarring her and putting some Boost packs to keep the cure constant.
Update week 2: I was initially very disappointed with this strain compared to my previous ones but after some curing the tropical smell has indeed come through. It's more like the smell of green mangoes. The taste once smoking it is not as prominent but still a nice smoke and a nice body stone.

Nutrients
Great nutes. Couldn't be more happier with my choice. They truly do some amazing stuff. Shout out to Patrick at Biobizz for helping me out.
To grow her was very easy. Just as long as you go light in the Nitrogen in veg you won't have a problem. Maybe even add a terp booster towards the final stage of flowering to increase the smell and taste.
The buds are 50/50 dense to fluffy. Certainly not as dense as my previous grows.
The smell is a bit more on the mango side and a slight note of citrus and sweetness. Overall definitely not as flavorful as I'd have imagined, even when she was in late stage flower.
The high however is nice and relaxing. I grew this for my significant other and she is enjoying it very much. Not too indica and more of an energetic head high and not too much couch lock.
I'll give her another go sooner or later but I'm not that impressed.

Grow Questions
Gr33nFi3ldstarted grow question 5 years ago
Leaf tips on all my grows turn upwards slightly. I'm using a 260w HLG Quantum board LED light which is about 2.5ft away from the plant and temps never get higher than 27 degrees with about 60% humidity. Could it be calmag deficiency?
Solved
Leaves. Curl up

Hey there, this does not look like calmag deficiency, those curls usually indicate something to do with root problems, which seems likely after almost three months of heavy feeding , your PH is a bit high due to the Alg-a-mic which is causing some issues at the roots. Instead of a plain water feed / flush the next two weeks, try adding an enzyme to this stage, like cut out the nutes like you were going to but flush with either enzymes for two three weeks or another flushing agent the last week and hopefully it will break down the problem roots and the plant will recover just in time. Hope this helps ! ๐

@cabinriver, thanks! She's a bit nitrogen sensitive so just go easy on the grow nutes and you should be fine!

Thanks for your help guys. I don't think it's overwatering as I allow the top layer of the soil to dry about an inch down before watering again. I'll try both methods in any case and see which helps.

@Gr33nFi3ld, enzymes every watering , humic + fluvic and amino acids every 10 days , that should do the trick

@CRiSPrGrow, Alright well noted. I'll have to add some of those to my list. As for my next grow what would I use to prevent the tips from curling or what should I do?

Despite ur challenges the buds look delicious dude! ๐. Can only hope for similar results on mine. Got my own challenges too but mainly user error and nothing to do with the plant. Best of luck on the DOTM entry as well btw๐

@TheBudWhisperer, oh btw, as long as you keep the Nitrogen fairly low during veg you should be good. Good luck with your grow!
