TruTraTri Seeds from Greenway Solutions from grower of the month. So somehow earned and not sponsored. No obligations on either side. Honest report as always. Contact with the breeder was very nice, answers all questions and in short(est) time.👌👍 👌Honest, so no weird claims, provoides valuable tips. Looking forward for the results. As always DIY LEDs + DIY recycled soil. Keep them outside at the beginning to spare some energy and they have to stay small so everthing fits in my small box later on. Had just one seed from this strain. Wanted to get rid of the packaging and safe some storage space😅 “Avast!”

TruTraTri Box is still full. Unplanned transplantation in mid sized. They look sad because I forgot them outside. Temperature ~-5°C + less than 12h light. 😭 Which would not be bad, if they weren't so tall already (at least for my box), so I somehow have to flip as soon as possible and recover as good as possible. “Dead men tell no tales.”

TruTraTri After death was avoided, she recovered. Just as she was feeling fine, I cut her head off, because I need a bushier structure because of the limited height. More than a bit harsh, but no other option. “A pirate’s life for me.”

TruTraTri Well, I have no experience with the breeder or strains, so if there is a stretcher I got no time to recover or train - switch. Took the topping like a champ. “Full speed ahead!”

TruTraTri Stupid setup. She is the smallest one, so she gets less light then I would like to and I messed up here and there. No time to recover... Would've been awesome to have a run just with this or an outdoor plant. The buds are not huge, more like just popcorn. BUT I am not dissappointed because this is loaded with trichomes everywhere. I am used to some visible trichomes on the edges of fan leaves. In this case, I can't realy tell if there are fan leaves or just sugar leaves everywhere. Perhaps, if there is the chance I can get my hand on some seeds again, I'll definitely go for an outdoor extract or single strain indoor run. 💪 “It’s in the blood, Dan.” — Yellowbeard

TruTraTri Reduced the water. Pictures of the whole plant when I take them out of the box. The buds are all small and isolated (no huge .. long kolas). Undecided if it's just because of me. But I have to emphasize the extract potential. I want a huge bucket of this! Arrrrrr. "Squabble? They’re all dead.” — Moon

TruTraTri Final day. Already chopped. Buds are rather small, bud it's so gluey and glittery everywhere, I didn't cut off anything and hung her up to dry. I am not quite sure what to do. As it is freezing otuside, perhaps I try "frozen dry sift" (did not work). Harvest update after she is processed. Smell developed quite nice. Think I got some mint smell “Pirates don’t retire.” — Yellowbeard

TruTraTri Plant frosty, weather frosty. Fresh frozen "dry sift" did not work (~ -5°C). Did some bubble hash. What to say......... DON'T USE CHEAP, LOW QUALITY; BUBBLE BAGS!!!!! 😂 (Especially don't use them "for the last time because you can leave them dirty and just throw them away", (even more) especially if you have already new ones 😆) All bags were ragged so I used 220 + 120 for filter and 25 for everything good, as these seemed fine, but the 25µ gave up too. Round about 1-2 g were left. 😢 Regarding the plant, frosty frosty frosty, but no buds at all. No major problems during the grow, at least I think so. She was the smallest of all, distance to light was suboptimal. Just before switch she was frosted and trained. Nonetheless, no reason to not develop buds IMO.

Sorry for your loss on the frozen/dry sift experiment. You are right the bud structure looked weak on that one. Could be no mindful selection was done on plant structure, or it may be the plant was directing that energy elsewhere. Quality starts at the seed, it seems like your grow was in relatively good order, so thats likely the issue. Are you planting the give-away seeds next? Wishing you luck on your next attempt! 🌱👍
