Resistance

This plant grows very squat so be careful of overcrowding buds as I did. Probably more suitable towards supercropping or just letting it grow naturally with some LST. Would not recommend main lining this one. Nugs are super hard and dense though so be careful with humidity in flower. Smelled of candied grape while growing but did not come through it in final cure. Suffered from a bit of powdery mildew.

Not an overly impressive strain and I would say she was not that hard to grow. If I even grew this one again I would let it go naturally with some LST. Wanted more grape flavours but they don't really come through in the smoke. There's a bit of a sharp fruity smell that's sort of piney with a hint of fuel at the end. The smoke is not too flavourful in my opinion but that just means I didn't grow it well. Super tight nugs so be careful with humidity as stated above. Also she's a bit of a light feeder so be careful with your nutes. As you can see I burnt her tips and over fed her a lot. Not a bad yield though! I've only really smoked the lowers on this one so far so that gave me a bit of a racey high, just slightly racey. I would accredit that to the lowers not being mature enough at chop. The plant is super dense and since I mainlined it the lowers didn't receive enough light. I tried to let the lowers mature more but the plant stopped maturing when I chopped the tops, this caused stress and the plant just shut down basically. Not sure if I would grow Blimburn's GDP again until I grow the real GDP.

Do you notice any difference with your 11 hours on light cycle or does it all seem about the same? Looks so amazing and I cant wait to see more in the future! Happy growing cheers!

@TonyTrichomes,Sounds like a plan. Can't wait to see the outcome. Happy growing stay safe cheers!

@HAPPY91, I honestly couldn't tell you with certainty that there is a difference until I take clones and run the same plants with the same set up and everything under 12/12.. Planning on doing that at some point. The plants are looking nice though so I'm not sure if I could attribute that to the light cycle or not.

@HAPPY91, hey and thanks for the kind words. Still learning a lot! Hoping to get into organic super soil next and then maybe some kind of aquaponics set up down the line. Either way I appreciate the love!

Looking really well nice and tidy do you think it stunted its growth with main lining or was that your intention to keep them small
TonyTrichomes

@Dean1, I don't have much experience with this particular strain but I would say they are naturally shorter plants. That being said I would say for sure I've done something to stunt them a little, especially the second pheno. She was always a slow grower from the time I popped the seeds and was always just a little behind and smaller. I also think that main lining in these pots was a mistake due to the fact that they are taller and more narrow than the fabric pots and didn't give the plants enough room to expand horizontally. If I grow this strain out again I would try to spread the branches out more so the colas could expand or just let it grow naturally and top maybe once, if that.

That's a cracking bitta work man....you say they're a mess to look at on the flip but it's a real tidy mess!! ๐Ÿ˜‰

@Bushbaby808, Haha thanks mate! I originally wanted to use a trellis net but I don't think it would be wise since I am manifolding the plants.. Next time I grow I'll top once or twice and let them grow into the net.

Honestly, I think mainline has served you well, I donโ€™t cut any leaves off from start to finish but I do try to remove lower bud sites 2-3 weeks after flip as plants tend to make more flowering sites than they can support ๐Ÿ˜Š really, beautiful plants, you should be proud ๐Ÿ‘
