Built my own light, been growing some plants, here's one of them. The wheel keeps turning. Think I'll scrog it up again... this one will flower along side a Lemon Kush. Who really cares what a vegging plant looks like, right? I'll be skipping most of that. Good luck with the grows!

Last veg pics before flower. Great plant! Watch out, it's quite leafy as the description says. Potted up from 11L→25L. Long overdue. Pictures taken in a 3x3 (before defoliation and cleaning the bottom)

It's pizza time, and the cheese is stretching. This one is not so fast with the flower development. It's growing extremely quickly and receiving a lot of light.

Cool plant. Big Perfect stems for supercropping It stretched more than I expected, the leaves are kinda narrow. Yes, I'm about to replace the dirty pre-filter 😆

Hmm, I think this will be a big yielder. It's kinda hard to take pictures because the plant is very close to the lights, and the light is very intense.

I was sick and wasn't able to change the lighting situation... the cheese has been receiving a bit too much light. That's ok, it will handle it. The sugar leaves are dark green, a little chlorosis on the fan leaves due to the light intensity and drought. I let this plant get dry to the point where the leaves wilt before watering. I have read that drought stress increases secondary metabolites in many plants. this is why many people propose that letting the weed plant dry out may increase its terpene content. To be honest I'm also just lazy with watering and saying this to justify it. :) The pics are not very exciting. It's just growing and stuff.. the tops remind me of some of those haze plants. I think many of these tops will fall over and I will be too lazy to bring a good solution. Thankfully, nature finds a way where I don't, lol. Anyway, the plant is an interesting one. Its canopy is about 100x60cm. With good lighting it looks like there is potential for an insane yield. The THC production is either slow and yet to come, or not very high. Perhaps the trichomes have short stalks which makes me misjudge the thc content. The smell is really great, I think it will be a very nice and dank smoke. Happy growing everybody

I skipped a week cause it just keeps growing and swelling. A few days ago the branches started falling over. I couldn't find half the plant. So instead of ignoring it I decided to stake this plant up. Great smells, definitely seems like a winner. Other plants will have a hard time competing against this blue cheese. Earlier this week I let this plant dry out for a day to stress it a little. The yellow leaves are from too much light and the drought stress. I expected similar heights from the plants but as you can see the difference is huge.😊

Nice! Let's say I look forward more to smoking it than trimming it The tops have some different shapes because I used the "back building" technique I'll add some more pictures on tuesday. You can right click and open the image in a new window to get a better look

I'm going to cut it this week! What a plant! The other plant, lemon kush, is a great success. Smoking it right now Thanks for the interest. Judging by the smell and awesome buds this long flowering one was very worth it. In about 3 weeks there will be a review... in the meantime, feel free check out the next grow: Pineapple Express It looks fucked up in there but I still haven't found any bud rot. Obviously I'm not cracking open the entire thing so let's see!

Very happy with the result :) It's a real cheese! When I harvested Lemon Kush it was my favorite plant from Zambeza, but now this one takes #1. Great flavor and potency. Very similar in structure to some SSH pheno. It's a shame I couldn't take better pictures - it's a beautiful plant that can grow really big. Congratulations to Zambeza for these great genetics.
