Great strain for beginners - she's a resilient one, will bounce back from mistakes! Produced amazing buds from even under-feeding heavily, and packs a punch even if you have a high tolerance! Would definitely grow her again.
FINALLY reached harvest guys! WOOHOO! My second ever grow and I'm pretty proud!
From a seed to BEAUTIFUL BUDS! Man! It really puts it into perspective how beautiful and NATURAL this medicine is!
Thought she could go for longer but I checked her trichomes yesterday and there was a good number of amber trichs all over which is just what I was waiting for, so decided to chop her! That makes it one day short of 10 weeks from seed to harvest!
Decided to wet-trim her, and dry the buds still attached to the branches. I cut the branches off so they can hang separately. Surprisingly there is NO grassy/hay smell and she smells so DANK! I think that was definitely due to the plant flushing itself early. Couldn't resist not sampling some so I quick-dried a small bit of bud in the oven and loaded a bowl in the bong.... Incredible!! Absolutely NO harshness OR grassy taste at this stage!!! Got me REALLY stoned! Super indica to me, felt really relaxed and I have a super high tolerance. And that's without proper drying or curing. I'm going to update a smoke report and add more photos once this is dried and cured.
Other than that, she was a beauty to grow. Took a lot of physical damage in week 5 but she bounced back like a warrior. Amazing results for organic nutrients, also considering I under-fed her like crazy. Came out not as dense as I wanted, but also not wispy/fluffy - will give a full feeding and possibly up the watts with a new light next time.
Will give weight once dried too. Right now I have the buds in a 50% humidity / 21c environment with a little airflow. Expecting it to dry within 7-10 days.00
@Green_Friends_Inc, I see a lot of people on here stress-training or defoliating their plant quite a lot - while it can produce better structure in the plant I think the main reason that my grow is so fast is because I avoided all of that. The plant needs time to recover when LST'ing or defoliating. She may have even been faster had it not been for the injuries she took in week 5!
Wow dude, the way the colors changed is crazy! She looks like she got a bit fatter too! Still looks like she can go a week or two to swell up as much as she can
Your buds look amazing my friend and I believe congratulations are in order. You put in the work and time over the last few months and it has given you some beautiful results. I wish you all the best in your next grow and I'm so happy for you that this grow has turned out as beautiful as it has. Cheers my friend and happy smoking!
@SensiSmellYahLater, Thanks so much!! Definitely learned a lot with this grow! Just made it even more AMAZING and gave me more PROOF how natural and beautiful this medicine is! Cheers!
Wow dude... i can see so much growth in the side nodes!! Ive been following your grow diary for a while now and I have to say, im pretty impressed. Is her smell still weak? Im thinkin of popping a FastBuds GSC soon, for 9 weeks from seed, thats pretty impressive.
Hey there man! Your baby looks beautiful!
And it seems we both went thru some similar mistakes by underfeeding the plants! (and we're both rising the same strain and using Biobizz!). In my case I used half dose of the recommended amount and "had" to buy AN Revive which helped the plant greatly! (Try to get one! It helps to fix mistakes 😖)
Also, your babies fattened quite fast! Love how they look!
Will keep an eye in your journal!
Take care!
@Black_Magic, Just started yesterday, using pure water. She started flushing herself early a few weeks ago as I had been feeding her half the recommended amount of nutrients throughout the grow until the last 2 weeks (which was a mistake, I should have fed her the full amount). But yeah, finishing off since yesterday with pure water
