Resistance
Weak
Easy to grow but susceptible to bud rot as the mom and the clones all suffered from bud rot to some extent. The stretch I saw when flowering out the mom was almost absent for the clones, so it seems like the stretch depends on the amount of light used. The buds have a sweet/sour berry and old fruit aroma. I tested each plant with my tCheck, and the THC ranged from 14,5% to 16,5%. I find the taste and effect... OK. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it, and several friends have told me that it is the best weed they have ever had, but personally, I find it a bit bland. It was the prettiest grow I have ever had, though, with absolutely stunning colors towards the end.

Reviews. Nutrient
I'm still not convinced these products actually do anything. At one point, I need to do a proper A/B test, but maybe I'll notice something in my next grow as I'm out of Humic.
Reviews. Lamp
This was my first grow with this light, and I'm pleased with its performance. It pumps a lot of light evenly across the canopy and I can easily control it using my AC Infinity Pro 69 controller. The IR/UV bars only have one attachment per bar to hang them, which is a bit wonky and requires some balancing. I bought these bars for the UV, although I wish it were possible to control the IR separately from the UV, as it would improve the light's usefulness.
Reviews. Tent
This tent is very sturdy, and the materials seem to be durable. It was easy to assemble by myself in cramped quarters. I was less impressed by the small but visible light leaks around the zipper. The leaks were not in the zipper but in the stitches around it. The leaks are small, and I doubt they will cause a problem, but seeing them in a tent of this quality is still disappointing. Another issue, or rather peeve of mine, is that it's impossible to keep the door or side windows partly open. It's either all or nothing.

Alright, I'm way late with this final report, but better late than never, as they say. Although, two months late is pushing it. Even for a stoner ;) Due to the bud rot, I dried them more aggressively than usual, so they only needed ten days before being dry enough to trim and jar. Usually, I prefer to leave them for +16 days for a long and slow dry, but hey, gotta try to avoid more bud rot. Luckily, the strategy worked, and I could find no additional budrot during the trim. YAY! Trimming was straightforward and went quickly. The yield was OK, considering the many buds lost to rot, and the final amount was 259,6 grams. It was not my best harvest, but that doesn't matter. The grow was still a success because I got some solid data on the performance of the different soil recipes. I will 100% use and apply what I learned in the future. So yeah, even though the grow went sideways at times with the clones going into flower, then having to re-veg them, bud rot, and finally a modest yield, it was still a massive success :) I'm now approaching my summer break's end, and I can hardly wait to start the next grow in a few weeks. Onwards and upwards!

@StarLorr, Right?! So pretty. No clue if it is due to the low temps or the UV. I suspect the UV more than the temps, to be honest. The mom plant experienced lower temps and never turned purple.
