This is when i started putting them under the par 30. So i started with 3 plants but the third was a photo free seed and she died after i gave her too little light. Started as a windowsill grow but that didt really work out because i only got max 4 hours of light so i bought lamps after a month ca. This grow is kinda a recollection so dont expect me to be to accururate about everything sorry.

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.

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 :)

So kinda mixed reactions to this strain. Taste was okaish but drying condtitions in my fridge werent optimal. She was kinda small and compact as a flower and plant and i really thought she would deliver more yield than the gorilla because i could direct my lamps better at her but yield was kinda the same as the other maybe a little bit less. Weed was a little bit stronger than gorilla i thought but not the high i rewally expected or wanted from an lemon haze but maybe due too my late harvest.

What can i say so this really was a diwhy experiment in hindsight. But neverthelesess i think i did kinda well under these condtitions i just grew in my dorm room without ventilation or a tent or growbox and i got 2 months supply of weed out of it. But now i try to flower in my diwhy growcubboard that i build in the last week and only will use the sansi leds as a second station get plants through the veg phase and let them bud out in my closet. I hope i gave a kinda credible case that you can grow weed under very low wattage and kinda bad conditions i applaud thee for thy attentiveness
