I put 2 photoperiod feminized seeds to germinate: one Mamba Negra and one Gorilla Glue (both from Frenetik Seeds). The seeds germinated fast, 48 hours after putting them inside a small sock with soil.
At first I have just one lamp on, but after 2 weeks, when they are big and strong enough I start the second lamp (I use the TGL Star 60, a COB LED full spectrum light with the equivalency of 300W but just consuming 55W, and a temperature of 3500K).
The plants grow in soil medium (Heavy mix by Top Crop) with 20% of perlite by Plagron.
It's becoming a classic. This strain has a sweet taste and aroma. The best part is the strong effect it has on your mind and your body. Instant pleasure.
It's been quite a journey. I was used to grow autoflowers, but this time I decided to grow fotoperiods because I wanted to try some techniques such as SCROG and main-lining, and being able to decide when to change the plants into flower.
This plant grew fast and was very gentle being managed into the SCROG and the main-lining, but when I changed the photoperiod to 12/12 she started to show some deficiencies. At first I thought it was CalMag, which I added, but eventually it was a root aphids pest. I managed to control the bugs with Neem, Potassium soap and Silica, but I think that attack affected the quantity of weed I yielded. Besides that, this strain has flowrished quite fast, creating dense middle sized buds, with sweet taste and aroma. The yield has been regular, but decent, so I'm happy.
This strain got me by sourprise, because I didn't expect it to be better than her closet partner (Gorilla Glue), but she totally won by quantity and also by her smell. It has sort of a citric fruity aroma and taste. The effect is quite balanced between relax and mental awareness.

I must say this plant one has been relativelly easy to mantain. She was very resilient with the defoliation and pruning. Also, her closet partner was affected by root mites, but this lady ressisted the attack as a champion, showing no deficiencies what so ever caused by those bugs.
She developed good quality middle sized buds, with a fresh and sweet smell and taste, and a decently potent effect. So I'm happy over all.
