This is a nice smelling and very vigorous plant! Let's see what it does. Extremely short internodal distance on this plant! Medium to thick branches. Pleasant smell when rubbed.

Just a quick update of the kush plant before I flip it to flower. This Lemon Kush plant is so far my #1 favorite plant I've ever grown. Its main stem is not as thick as some other plants but this one makes really sturdy branches of very even sizes. Extremely good response to topping and LST. It grows incredibly vigorously, doesn't make leaves that are too big. The node distance is awesome and the smell is good!! I hope it flowers well and it looks like it will. The clones? Amazing. I have had vigorous plants before but this one takes the cake. Too busy and lazy to take proper pictures of this veg, please stay tuned for flowering.

Last veg pics before flower. Moved into a big ol 25L pot. Nice branches. Again not the thickest main stem but the energy distribution is very even. Pictures taken in a 3x3 (before defoliation and cleaning the bottom)

Finally flowering something out here 😊 This plant has been more than ready for it Nothing exciting yet. day 3 of flowering light cycle. This plant reeks! (On the left: Blue Cheese) Quite a fast response. Hairs in the crowns already. Cheese is a bit slower so far.

The lemon kush is just kicking ass. Very fast flower development after barely any stretch. So far, this strain is a grower's choice. So many pistils at day 11!

Slow ride... take it easy Sorry, just listening to the song, in reality this lemon kush is quite fast. Pictures are from the first day of the week. Trichomes are appearing. Yes, I'm about to replace the dirty pre-filter 😆 --- Wow, on day 2 I already replaced the pre-filter and defoliated. Normally I'm so lazy.

What a nice plant, maybe it will be a 50 day strain? I don't think I've grown something this fast before. Too tired to take good pictures ... have a good weekend

I will add more pics on tuesday. The plant is looking quite nice and smells very dank. :) Check out the previous week for some pictures in dark with the flash The buds are very very dense I can't rate the quality yet but this is the easiest plant you could ever grow.

Harverst time :) Will update after the dry I was a bit scared for molds. Lots of dying leaves in very dense buds... Surprisingly I found not a single place with bud rot. Strong and easy plant! The dehumidifier also helped. I'm happy and lucky that I did not have a single problem during this grow. The finger hash was really nice,,, like a high quality dark moroccan hash Some plants have made shitty finger hash for me ... this one, on the other hand, is really a prototypical hash plant Kind of makes me wish I could make hash from it. Let's hope the flower is good. A pungent sweet smell, not too strong smelling. We will see what it turns out to be in the next 2 weeks! this plant received less light than it probably could have used because its roommate grew really tall. A great result regardless

What a great plant. Zambeza's Lemon Kush. It's easy, quick, this one didn't rot, and above all - it is absolutely delicious to smoke. It's mostly sweet and non-descript in the bag but extremely gassy when smoked with a very slight hint of earthiness. So far, my favorite Zambeza plant. It does remind of the Critical XXL, a similar taste, but this lemon kush is more potent. Easy to grow for beginners, no rot - I try my best to avoid it... Not easy to smoke for beginners! This plant is absolutely narcotic. A very good leaf to calyx ratio. Easy to trim. If I had to go back in time I would plant this seed again! WIsh I had some better pictures. The other plant in the room outgrew this one so the kush received less light than it could. Still an impressive result after being outcompeted! 100g of bud and 30g of fluff Actually, a little over 100g, let's say 104. A decent amount had been smoked already.

Waouuh big plant with big colas Good job 👍🏾👌🏾 Whats the brand of leds ?
BillMonroe
BillMonroecommented5 years ago
@DTHEREID, here, I'll throw you a bone. These filters list most of the strips worth using in a variety of sizes. Higher lumens/watt = better obviously. THere's many other places selling leds, Cutter.com.au have top of the line led strips. https://www.digikey.ca/products/en/optoelectronics/led-lighting-cobs-engines-modules-strips/111?k=&pkeyword=&sv=0&pv1344=453&pv1344=501&pv1344=412&pv1344=268&pv1344=468&pv1344=526&pv1344=449&pv1344=325&pv1344=469&pv1344=506&pv1344=414&pv1344=450&pv1344=470&pv1344=465&pv1344=527&pv1344=517&pv1344=521&sf=1&FV=2dc1d8d%2C2dc1daa%2Cffe0006f%2C1938000a%2C1938012d%2C1938012f%2C19380131%2C19380156%2C19380157%2C19380159%2C19380160%2C19380168%2C1938016b%2C1938018f%2C193801ea%2C19380200%2C19380202%2C19380204%2C19380216%2C1938004a%2C1938004b&quantity=&ColumnSort=0&page=1&stock=1&pageSize=25

@DTHEREID, Thx! it depends which continent you are in. In north america you can use Digikey for the whole build, otherwise if you are in Europe I recommend buying LEDs from digikey (if not available locally) and drivers from TME.eu because europeans have to pay VAT over digikey's items which come from USA. The drivers are more expensive than leds. Another site which stock those leds are Arrow.com but I never used it. Apart from the LEDs and driver, everything is just hardware store supplies :) Look for the ledgardener video series on youtube, and his website ledgardener.com, that will teach most you need to know about leds, their forum is a goldmine of information.

DTHEREIDcommented5 years ago
@BillMonroe, where might one be able to find a online retailer that sells all components needed? I’m looking to upgrade and would rather make my own board with leds. Also beautiful grow! Chunky colas, looks like it will be a great smoke.

Ganjagrandaddycommentedweek 76 years ago
wow and wow some more Bill. looking amazing in there for week 4 to.sub lighting is an idea i have wondered on a few times. would mixing the spectrum instead of linear layout serve it better?. curious.com. lpl
BillMonroe
BillMonroecommented5 years ago
@Ganjagrandaddy, thanks! Sorry for the late reply. I stopped with the sub lighting because it made watering too inconvenient - I'll make a proper fixture for it next time. It's definitely a great idea I think, I noticed significant growth in the lower buds that received light vs. those that didn't! More pistils. i'm not sure, what do you mean by mixing the spectrum instead of a linear layout? I think the spectrum can influence things but it's not so important to me. As long as a lot more light is coming there, it's great! If I had 1000W of led, I would consider 800w at the top and 200w at the bottom! Sandwich of light following the 80/20 rule. Try it some time if you can =)

heehee man after my own heart. smoking as you go is the only way. got to know how she is doing. That yield is a good one too. something about lemon/citric strains , they hit some great yields. I scrogged a super iced grapefruit mother plant as emergency and she gave me nearly 10oz. I was blown away.great result. Bill

Strain sound delicious! Ya my blue cheese is a slow flower too so no worries. I grow out 4 other cheese strains the same. Mine I usually end up with 9 or 10 weeks of flowering.
