Barney’s was good to me again. Looked forward to this grow, first auto and was not disappointed. In hind sight I would have lst way more and spread her out but good. Really impressed with the harvest, big plant, tall and although kind of lanky still produced well. Smells wonderful, really fruity and looks good. Harvested a little earlier than usual, with only a small percentage of ambers. Want to see if I notice a difference. Great strain, great buzz after the tester, can’t wait for it to cure up. Did a water cure to a bit, and turned out as expected lol. Made it lose all colour and smell, like that shit you used to get in high school. Buuuuut, after smoking I was as stoned as I should be, and was a really smooth smoke with no real taste,smell. I would recommend you grow this strain from BF.
Tent is terrible, but that’s what you get for low price I guess. Light leaks all over, taped them all, zippers are brutal. I emailed them my concerns and have heard nothing back, so not a great company and will not be buying anymore of their products.
Yo yo! This plant was a monster for me, tough to handle late in the game. Can’t believe how much she yielded, and it looks pretty good. Quite a few hairs, and lower buds were a tad airy but overall me likey. Early buzz reports are good, tastes ok at this stage. Was a calmag hog, especially with th ro water. She got too close to the light, and suffered some burn near the end. Which was part of the ugliness, center of canopy that close got beat up. Great strain to grow, didn’t fuss much at all. Should have kept her lower, but oh well, super happy with this grow. Thanks Barney’s Farm, really think I’m going to enjoy the PPA! Thanks for reading along, checking her out, stay safe and keep it realz.

Just wondering what anyone’s take is on the Chloramines and chlorines used in tap water treatment. Are these guys as detrimental to our plants, specifically in a hydro setup, as they’re made out to be? Thanks.
Any sort of dissolved solid or gas in the water can affect things. It’s better to use distilled or dechlorinate before hand. Living soil growers take special heed to chlorine as this can destroy your micro environment.
@KenSpliffeyJr,
Right on, we will see in a few weeks with this girl. I agree with you, the 24 hr dark does help, with trich production too. Running the bucket empty last couple of days hasn’t caused me any issues either. Sticking with that for now, need to stock my freezer lol, so experimenting with temps I will explore later this year. Good chats Spliffey.
@Greazy77, I think your on to something with doing it the last week. A youtube channel called “Lex’s World” mentioned doing so during the last week / flush and that being enough time
To bring out the colours iirc. I honestly don’t have a way of controlling it aside from maybe a 24 hour night cycle before harvest, or dimming down the lights from the led so it produces less heat but I think that’s counter intuitive cause the idea is to bring a sharper contrast in night temps within a safe zone as opposed to an overall cooler temp.
I’ve also heard of people running an ice flush but that makes me nervous and have only read anecdotal reports of it and never actually seen a concrete example online or in person. Honestly I don’t think I’m ok with that method either.
I’ll probably just try a 24 hr night cycle when my purple lemonade from 420 fast buds arrives and is ready for harvest.
@KenSpliffeyJr,
Copy that, going to leave the temps the same. Curious myself, led to believe this strain will have some colour as is. Think we have to be careful with lowering temps as to when, how long, how cold etc. But maybe the last week or so? During flushing maybe, not too many negatives if colder temps used then. Although might not be long enough to actually have an effect? I hear ya spliffey.
Wow, what a harvest! Congrats! I'm dealing with a monster myself and my tent is just crowded and she has no more vertical height to go. Really hoping she just fills out now.
