This strain is really good !
I tried an (uncured) bud last night and it was very enjoyable; feels very relaxing, but powerful. Also, no munchies (I mean, not that much ;)). This could be a nice strain to smoke (or however you consume your weed) for social events, IMO.
The grow part was also nice; I had no issue whatsoever, and am very satisfied with the result. Plants smell but not too much, are dense enough, and very frosty :p
Hope you'll enjoy growing it as much as I did !

As good as it gets ! I haven't use enough fertilizer brands to be objective, but I like these products. As long as these are organics and my plants are happy, I'm in !

Lights
Very effective. Just be mindful of blue light's power during veg, to avoid getting too stacked / bushy plants. Put some red lights early enough !
Very satisfied with this year harvest; although I don't really explain why there is so much of a gap between wet and dry weight. Maybe they dried a bit too quickly (barely 4 days) ? (buds are just fine tho; no need to worry ;)).
Anyway, I had a blast this year; did proper LST, and had a better nutrients schedule than previously.
Thanks to all of you, especially those that helped me, answered my questions and commented ! :)
I'll be back in a few months, probably ;)

Grow Questions
Cockpitlouloustarted grow question 4 years ago
I'll put my question here as well for better visibility;
Plants are very bushy and I'm not sure if I should prune subbranches or let them grow that way. I'm a little worried they'll lack space when they'll start flowering. It might be suboptimal as well.
Thanks for helping me !
Solved
Plant. Too short
Plant. Spaces between nodes

Hi @Cockpitloulou the spectrum of your light seems to me to be the cause of slow growth. I have seen several negative reviews about vipaspectra leds, good for flowering only. Rise the light more for the plants stretch more. you should prune subbranches that are not keeping up with others branches. good luck mate 👍

Yo intento mantener entre 50cm al principio y voy bajando hasta 30cm. La verdad que tienes unas plantas muy hermosas y unos resultados increíbles.
Espero obtener los mismos resultados que tu.
Un saludo y buenos humos.
Me quedo siguiendo tus diarios.

@Txumy2020 I try to keep ~50-60cm between lamp and top, at every stage. Right now, 55cm from highest point.
Is that what you were looking for ?

Hi,
I have a beginner question if you can help me please.
How do you set your led regarding blue, red or full spectrum and % of brightness? I am growing on balcony that gets around direct sun light for 7h and solid 11 to 12h daylight during this time of the year... just bought a cheap grow led to complement and ad 4h-6h of lights during night....
I am growing 2 Nothern Lights (one with 3 weeks and other just started today by planting the seedling) and one CDB which has 2 weeks... Maybe the 2 oldest full spectrum and once seed germinates start with only blue for first 1 to 2 weeks? dont really know.... thinking on the full spectrum side (at 50 -60% brightness) because already be receiving sun light directly?
By the way, the led is chinese and has only 27W, really just a small complement as I know plants will appreciate any extra light... I cant spend much money also...
thanks a lot.

@FCFLOWER Hey ! I don't really do anything with my lamp; There are two switches, one for veg state (mostly blue light), and one for bloom (more red lights). I usually keep only blue lights for the first few weeks, then turn them both on til harvest.
I see nothing wrong with mixing natural lights with a LED generated one, as long as your plants absorb enough radiation for the right amount of time.
I can't say for sure about your installation, for it depends on a lot of factors, and I'm not an expert by any mean (also, I only did indoor yet), but 27W seems a bit low. Your plants might start flowering sooner than expected if they don't have enough light.
Alas, I don't really know a thing about specifics. Maybe you'll find something useful here (https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-cannabis-cultivation-tips-how-to-set-up-indoor-grow-lights-n670). Maybe you can also find someone who can get some reading with a sensor ?
Hope you'll find what you're looking for !

I would paint the boxes white or add some reflective sheeting to help light exposure. But I’m just a newbie at this.

@Aman89, I don't think they need it that much, considering how bushy they are, but it can't hurt !
Still planning to build a growbox with mylar coated panels tho. Maybe next time ;)
