Spring 2020 | Strawberry Cough | SCRoG

Unknown lineage. Ideally, this would be from Kyle Kushman's original cut, which is Strawberry Fields x Haze. But based off the look of the plant, it seemed to have more Indica traits than Sativa. This was a lovely grow. Completely organic and attempted SCRoG for the first time. I think it really paid off. Also flushing for 2 weeks and stopping feed around week 6-7 seemed beneficial. Tempted to stop feed around 7-8 next round. Temps got a little too hot for my liking - might forego future indoor grows or switch to lights on at night. I think I've got the Drying/Curing down. I decided to only dry for 6 days before trimming and curing. This also may be due to the fact that I water-deprived for the last week leading up to harvest. Tried "washing" my bud for the first time due to the amount of dust and particles I saw when inspecting Trichomes. This involved a Lemon Juice, Baking Soda, & Filtered water solution, followed by a double rinse in pure filtered water. After a 2-week cure, the smoke is fantastic! Near-white ash, doesn't go out, tastes real fruity - one of these in a Grape "Port" Backwoods is killer! Upon Harvest, I got strong smells of sweet fresh Strawberry, some sort of diesel/fuel, and earthy goodness. Effects are top notch! Reviews from some trusted buddies: "Functional, Heady Buzz, good in small amounts" "Sweet! energizing but still calming" "Quick on-set, happy, functional high but calming" Thoughts for next round: Harvest one week earlier, feed one week more, more Teas, pH the damn water!, don't forget Lime!, set water schedule, fill-in canopy better, and top more! Thanks for tuning in :) 'til next time, Keep Safe and Stay Blessed! 🙏👽
