Pros: fairly hardy plant, gives a nice balanced high (can be used day or night), very pleasant to smoke or vaporize (I've received some offers to purchase from friends who have sampled; sorry but this a personal stash only, HAH), and a pretty solid yield (my cheapo inputs were prob the main limiting factor here).
Cons: took a long time to maturity (esp for an auto), no lemon scent or taste detected (but a skunky smell came on strong late in flower), two plants demonstrated two substantially different phenos.
Overall conclusion: great strain, I will grow it again and would highly recommend to friends and family.
I did not discover this stuff until later in the grow. Started listening to dude grows show podcast and picked some of this up to try it. Seems legit and I did notice some legitimate improvement to water retention of my soil and stress resistance of plants.
Two plants and two very different phenos expressed here, which allowed me to stagger my harvest by about 3 weeks. That really helped me out since I'm a n00b home grower with a family & a lot of demands on my time. I used a herbsnow dryer, and was impressed with the results (legitimate 96 hour dry-down no mold and trichs still look good, pretty cool!). Although I coulda trimmed the buds even further to give more bag appeal, my goal was to maintain trichomes and so I went with a rough trim only.
I'm going to buy some more of these seeds in bulk soon; I think this strain is a winner.
Male flowers sprouting on lower foliage of my 2 more developed lady (Hermie) plants - in week 10 with autoflowers.
The buds unaffected but these new male flowers in lower foliage shocked/concerned me. Do I need to worry / harvest immediately? What should I do?
Those, to me anyway, look like calyxes. If you keep an eye on them they'll get covered in trichomes and sprout a pistil. That's what they look like to me
Some fat and frosty buds on that lady. Fantastic work. I have a pack of these and this diary has me itching to try them out now. Keep it up. Best of luck with the rest of the journey growmie.
Looking good!
I wish I got to start my first grow from seed but ended up with clones, have my first seed grows going now 🙌
Good growing and best of luck! 💪
