For this grow the 3 plants will be referred to as NL#1 NL#2 & PX
2 Northern lights from seedsman in 5 gallon pots and 1 pineapple express from 42 fast buds in a 7 gallon pot folded down
1st week using 560 pulling watts of chinese led plus 100 watt cfl
NL#1 is showing spots of green in the leaves and I have anchored the main stem to prepare for training
NL#2 is growing well with wider leaves than #1
PX has finally started to grow and grow well
At this point I am introducing nutrients at half dosage
NL#1 has continued it's colored leaves and is considerably thinner than NL#2
From the initial anchoring of NL#1 and other LST the plant has shifted to an off center grow pattern exceeding the height of NL#2
NL#2 seems to show perfect symmetry and is growing very well
PX is growing very well
This week I introduced Calm-mag to the solutions
NL#1 is growing well but showing rust spots on the leaves. hopefully the calmag is what clears that up.
NL#2 doing well
PX doing well, with a surprise double bud
NL#1 has continued with the specks and they have evolved into burned specks
NL#1 has started smelling sweet
NL#2 has started to smell earthy
PX has a pungent smell of Brandy
I have done light defoliation in the past and heavy defoliation will come soon.
PX was stunted as a seedling for 2-3 weeks so I have stopped labeling them for days because the timeline may not reflect other grows of the same genetics
NL#1 has a Very sweet smell, more airier buds than NL#2
NL#2 has a pungent and earthy smell with more trichomes and more density
PX has a pungent smell of brandy
Northern Lights are ready to harvest soon
PX was stunted as a seedling for 2-3 weeks so I have stopped labeling them for days because the timeline may not reflect other grows of the same genetics
Happy with the northern lights, one more pungent and one smelling and tasting sweet, NL#1 had much more lowers and trim, they both put out about the same amount of weight, with NL#2 yielding more dense buds I did not weigh my limbs before drying.
Not counted above is 1 1/4 ounce of lowers and trim from NL#1 and 3/4 ounce of trim/lowers from NL#2. Total weight of usable material was 7 ounces together.
If not for NL#1 giveing off such a sweet aroma and taste then I would say this strain is average, but since one plant is sweet like candy I would consider growing it again.
super sticky
Still the best way to describe the aroma is Brandy, a pungent alcohol with notes of fruit
I will take the main down soon for an even finish with 2/3 of the grow room lights focused on her.
Excellent plant, very strong. It was really nice to grow and LST
I did not weight branches before drying, not included above is 1/2 ounce of usable trim.
During the the grow this plant was so pungent I was afraid it would be unpleasant in flavor and it really was very harsh uncured.
Through the curing process it loses the reeking alcohol smell leaving just the fruity notes behind. Typical hybrid buds with a medium amount of trichomes. Truly a delicious strain.
