So obvously she didn't had the best conditions for growing but she nevertheless delivered a about of 15 to 20gs of potent but still not very strong buds. The high was great though especialle the first few times i used to call it my happiness weed because it just released huge waves of euphoria and giggliness upon consumation. Would definitely recommend the strain if you want a just a great strain to deal with depression or the holyfuckery of the state of the world. She grew quite tall up to 1m20 or 40 or smth and i really thoughed she would keel over every second.

So this was my first grow ever and the first 3 or 4 weeks they were windowsill girls but then i put them under the par30 for 2 weeks realized they were to weak bought the 4 of the par20 leds in a comlete sensi lamp with 4 arms on amazon and used it because amazon said it had up to 1200umol lol. Well they didnt delivered that much light or an amount close to it but aiming 2 of these on a flower really exploded their grow in contrast to the absolutely horrible condtions they have been under before (up to 2 hours of sunlight maybe). And hey they survived and produced some flower :) But now i gained the wisdom that just using regular led lights are probably a better option for most people and that amazon descriptions are kinda misleading so i cant really recommend this lamps if you can just buy a splitter and a 6 pack of e27 leds so stay tuned for my next grow :3

Grow took a really long time up to 14 weeks if i can remember correctly and i harvested them and dried them in the fridge afterwards. Wasnt the best idea in hindsight weed tasted kinda hayish but was ok but i had no other choice because there was no way i could dry it in my appartment in summer temperatures around 30 degrees in my room. This was my first grow ever because of the legalisation in germany and i wanted to try to spend as litte money as possible in the beginning so the plant really had the worst conditions possible especially in the fist month. Really wanted to see how far you can get with as litte equipment possible Lumpenproletariat style but i found out that my bedroom window really didnt catch enough light at allexcept maybe to produce maybe 5 gramms tops so i went with cheap lights instead. Dindt really had the option to grow in a closet back then due to living in a 12qm dorm room so i went with the clipping lights instead. originally just to support the daylight but i ended up letting go of the daylight entirely due to the summer temperatures and my brain frying in my top floor appartment and a fear of my landlord finding out about it if i put the lights close to the windows. But i have moved now so for the next grows i will have new options including closet grows. And south facing windows and balcony grows in the summer so stay tuned :)
