Started LST the evening before the weekended. Seems to be on the right path just moving a little slower than others growers. So figure why not bend her over and see what happens.

LST begins. Still seems a little behind pace but liking the LST. Maybe should label this week flowering but just started the last few days. Switched to Tiger Bloom the last two days.

Tiger bloom nutes twice this week. Transitioning from the veg nutes to bloom. Grew a lot this week. Really loved the LST and I think I learned a ton from this plants LST. So far so good!

Continue to make good progress. Saw another bit of stretch after a few days of bud development. No both seem to be happen at the same time. Watering about 8-10oz a day/ day and a half. Seems happier than ever with the increased water. Considering defoliating but hard to know there being my first grow. Should I, when and how? Research happening now.

Started filling out a little this week. Hopping for two/three more weeks of bud growth! Seems to be happy but tips are turning just a bit yellow. Trichomes are a plenty and the smell is amazing. If nothing else I believe this will do a great quality smoke.

Did a little defoliation and adjusted LST just a little. Wishing I had done it a week earlier as it seems to have loved it. Pistols turning orange, trichomes getting cloudy with a few ambers mixed in. Guessing a week to week and a half max starting to flush now.

Leaves started to turn and purple out. Going to defoliate the yellow leaves today. Some beautiful purple working into the leaves and seeming towards the buds. Thinking I still have a week left to go. Plant pushed a lot of trichomes and most are still clear or cloudy.

Defoliated almost everything unhealthy throughout the week. Pictures don’t do it justice in the readiness department. In regular light you see a significant difference in the pistols and bud darkness. Triches are all cloudy with 20%ish amber. Yesterday was final defoliation and flush. Will let sit for a day or two more and than go dark for a day and chop.

Be generous with the water. Progress was slow until I upped the water amount and frequency. Than it finally moved consistently.

First grow and what a great experience. Veg started real slow and I worried a lot but by week 4 she started moving consistently. LST started a little late and just before flowering started. Happy with how it turned out though. There were 4 Colas with a fair amount of bud. Flowering went awhile but she smelled and looked beautiful! Great strain, I will grow it again! Growing was a pleasure front to back. Learned a ton and had a ton of support from this community! I have found a new passion in life and it feels great and In the end I get to smoke my own weed! Not sure things get much better than a combo like that. Thanks Thanks to @treighfunkh for the photo assists!
