This 1's for Mama!

This Blue Dream cbd has been a very strong and resilient plant from day 1. It grew fast, healthy and had perfect spacing between nodes which made light penetration even and accessible even in crowded grow spaces. I think it would be an easy plant for anyone to grow regardless of indoors or out. I originally wanted to let this grow keep it's apically dominant shape but when I realized It would be better to have it's height changed I ended up using a HST super cropping technique which went perfect; no broken branches and fast adjustment to it's newly bent state. With the minimal training it was exciting to see that the majority of the flowera had a good dense feel to them and when trimmed there was minimal removed and even fewer larf buds. This has been my first indoor plant to such a high percentage of have solid buds. Approximately 1/6 of the weight was larf buds and trim. In the last couple weeks the smell got nice and strong. After the harvest it mostly smelled like herbal flowery cleaning products...that seems strange but that's definitely what came to mind, unfortunately there isn't a smell option for "cleaning products" or something like that. Now for the negative parts that happened towards the end. The plant did suffer some nutrient problems because of the ph being off and that caused a lot of ugly looking leaves. Then about 7 days before harvest i had 1 hour of lighting problems. While chopping the plant down I started seeing small white areas at the base of the bottom most buds.....Nanners, several of them. Some had already opened and I could see bits of pollen coming out. I removed what I could and then let the plant dry as usual. Then a few days later when I began trimming I also started to find seeds, however they are not immature pale tiny seeds...they're fully developed brown stripey seeds. How could 7 days manage to develop so many viable looking seeds? Unless they were not caused by my light turning on, but some other stress or genetic related issue? The only issue this gives me is whether or not to let one grow outdoors over a long summer where it could potentially pollinate other plants. Overall the positives of this plant greatly outweigh the negatives and I definitely will grow it again. Even with the nanners and the seeds, the plant was beautiful, tasty, bulky, and just the right amount of stoney. After everything was complete I was able to use trim and some smaller buds to whip up some cannabutter. I can't remember the last time i did this and it was so much fun! It wasn't the perfect butter, and still had some cannabis taste...but I'll give myself a pass since it's been so long, plus it still made for nice stoney cookies. Thanks for everyone's advice and attention to this diary. Happy growing and harvesting. ✌️
