Super easy and beautiful colours with the low overnight temps. Nice choice as a resilient and easy to grow plant that works well outdoors. There is a great lavender or floral smell in the curing jar, and the smoke tastes great. Medium strength smoke with nice relaxing effect. Nice plant for backyard or stealth grows. Highly recommended. 😎

Could have gone longer but there was some bud rot happening due to the cool and humid weather which isn’t getting any better soon. Had to harvest, but it still looks like a pretty good yield.

This is my first attempt at an outdoor grow and I’m treating them much like my tomatoes and hot peppers. So, yes 10 C or lower (3C one nigh recently) can slow things down even when the days are in the 20s, but I figure with the allowed four legal plants here in Canada I don’t have to sweat it too much. I could bring them in, but it would pretty much have to be frost before I’d do it. The plants are going good now, just at the solstice, and everything is on schedule. I checked out your NL page...looks very good. I’ll be interested to see the difference with what I end up with. Should be similar but your seeds are RQS and mine are Crop King.

@Northern_Ent, maybe I need to put him on the concrete as well.. good tip!

@CoastGrower, I think I’ll make a point of keeping the plants off the grass overnight. I’ve had mould in the garden on regular flowers in previous years. I never realized how humid it can be here in the summer. For the Morning sun plants are on the concrete anyway so that helps me remember to do it each day. 😎

@Northern_Ent, RH goes above 80 gor a couple hours during nights here.. It was the first time ever that I had mildew in My life. But after the h202 wash it doesn’t seem to be infected anymore, it’s drying nicely without any mildew yaay :) Yeah my new plant is growing faster :) now let’s hope it stays healthy! Thanks for stopping by!

Germinated seeds using Crop King’s recommended paper towel method. Apparently I wasn’t keeping the towels moist enough here in our dry climate. Slow to pop, but finally got 4 of 5 to go. Planted germinated seeds directly into soil on May 23, but not up as of May 26. Hopefully I didn’t stick them in too deep but I think I did over-water them a bit today.

@Cannibalgardens, ha ha. Winters are usually not all that bad here but last February was brutal. Our summers are usually pretty great but this one was pretty cool and humid.

@@ShotGunBob, 91 g dry...I thought it would be over 100 g but still record setting for this strain on Growdiaries🤠

@@ShotGunBob, thanks. I was thinking in that range. With an outdoor northern latitude grow, I will be at or near the top yield on Growdiaries for all four of my plants. Not expected but pretty awesome. 🤠

@Northern_Ent,yes they are lol ,and with four plants plenty of smoke,edibles,tinctures oil eveything so easy to make it should be legal everywhere.

@Cannibalgardens, thanks, eh? The Canadians are fairly easy to spot when they’re doing outdoor grows. Four plants and cool overnight temps 😎🇨🇦 I’m so stoked at the size of all four of my plants. I’m pretty sure I’ll be giving some away so I can have the fun of growing four different strains next year.

@Cannibalgardens, thanks, eh? This is the youngest of the four I’ve got going and was the reliable insurance plant in case the other ones crapped out for some reason.

She’s growing fast! Do you leave her outside during nighttime? 10C is cold and can slow her growth. My NL is at week 10 you can check my diary if you want, I’m also doing LST. Good luck buddy! 👍✌️
