Puna Orange from Big Island Genetics was a relatively easy grow. I had an issue at the very beginning where the perlite I used had miracle grow in it and burned the seedlings. I switched it out with regular perlite and transplanted them and they immediately took to the new soil mix. All 3 of my plants bounced back but two ended up being males. I separated them and collected pollen from one of the males and pollinated one of the buds to ensure I would have seeds for for future grows. Veg was done indoors and flowering outdoors. This plant endured high winds, some rain, and night temps into the 30s. There was never an issue with mold. The only problem I had was with aphids, it was late in flower so chemicals weren't an option. I bought ladybugs and released some each day for 3 or 4 days. They handled most of them but there were a few left on one of the lower branches when I harvested which I tossed out. I cut and trimmed everything last night and hung them to dry in a closet. The smell is strong and has a sweet fruity, and citrusy scent.

I used Tiger Bloom on both of my grows. I might try something else next time so I have something to compare it to. I'm happy with the results.

I'll update once dried and cured. Overall, I'm happy with my yield, which is about the same as my first grow, which was two plants. I don't own a scale so I'm not sure what the wet weight is, not will I know what the dry weight will be. But I know it'll be enough to last me over a year since I'm still stocked from my last harvest which was a year ago this month. UPDATE: buds have been clipped and jarred for curing. I'll sample one of the pocorn buds thats been drying with my trim in about a week for a taste and smoke report. UPDATE: I was able to sample some last night and it smoked great. Very smooth and easy on the throat. The effects came on quickly. A very warm body feeling mixed with an uplifting happy high. Less than a full bowl was enough to do the trick. I highly recommend this strain, very reminiscent of XJ-13. Last UPDATE: dry weight is 1.16oz

Nice plant there SoCal, looks great. The buds should swell out nicely in 2 weeks. Good move flushing now. That sun will degrade the trichomes fast once they are past their peak. Even 2-3 days can make a considerable difference to the very top buds. Haha I'm with Jon_Do. Jealous of that beautiful climate to grow in. Keep it up will be watching for your future grows. 👍🏻✌️

yeah definitely dont let them get rained on at all during this late in flower they will retain the moisture in a bad way especially if theyve got dense buds its no bueno plants looking amazing bud =)

@Jaindoh, thanks man. I'm able to put them under an awning for the day. Not a big deal since there won't be much sun that day anyway

@Socalbudz, they work great, it's nice to seeing someone opting for those little buggers rather than spraying with anything <3

@bobo420, so far they seem to be doing their job. I've released some the past two nights and will put the rest out tonight
