Gotta say that this run went off like clockwork. Humble beginnings and about the most truncated veg. period possible. Yet these girls bulked out like champs. They may be small at about 14” for the tallest, but what they lack in height they made up for in girth😎👌😎. Literally giant football size head buds on each🤙. Alls we can do now is pray that no one swipes the momma at the side of the house. She’s a straigt up monstrosity. Can’t even figure yield there at this point but we’ll be in the pound scale for sure👍😎. Ive always found seedsman to be reliable as a seed bank and if this is any indication of their strain quality, we’re gonna be in for a real treat😋. Any hoo, the deets are below as per usual. Taste & Smell: 🍭🍭🍭🍭🍭 Effects: 🍭🍭🍭🍭 Full marks for seedsman’s nose on this one. She definitely reeked of a distinctly orange kind of citrus scent. If my busted ass sniffer can pick that up, then she’s a stinker fo sho😃. It’d be great to see this profile round out in the cure but only time will tell. Update - 7 days into the dry and she’s already starting to present some profile. Sniff’n good👍. First quality assurance test - took a heavy rip of the bong and oh man, this one’s a winner. Initial thoughts are it’s a high energy smoke which is awesome. But it’s got a real good mix of cerebral and body buzz. I’m actually pretty surprised with the first taste test. The strain description is 100% spot on. Only 12 days dry and she’s nice and smooth with a hint of citrus already👌😎. Seedsman has struck gold here. What a straight up rock’n freebie👍👍👍😎. I don’t usually kick out a 5-er rating unless it’s something special and the scent and flavour profile on this is exactly that.👌

Nutes 🍭🍭🍭🍭 We ran witha completely different nute regimen this time round. Heard from a bud @greenmachine that GH’s maxi Series was the shit and he wasn’t kidding. We ran this regimen at 3/4 strength of recommendations front to back and it was perfect👌. Only one nute (minus the calmag deficiency) for each part of the grow and 2 nutes total. Massive bags and only a couple scoops per res. Change. Say what you want about “non-organic” nutes - this stuff is the shit and it’s gonna take forever to use it all🤙🤙😎
Indispensable and always gotta have some on hand just for situations like this one. Plants showed a small cal deficiency in mid-flower and this cleared that up within a week or so.

Really glad I went with these for the smaller cabinet. 200w in this small a space is plenty and these panels fit the bill perfectly. Especially impressed with its performance in veg. And they still performed very admirably in flower. I would give some serious consideration to a larger scale SF panel if the cob shits the bed in the next year or so.

Medium: Yep - still gonna beat on the DWC drum. It just gets better and easier every run. I’d say the res. Changes were sporadic at best - every 1-2 weeks give or take. Stuck with peroxide this run again instead of going with bennies via hydroguard or hygrozyme. The results speak for themselves and we pushed these clones as close as we could to ludicrous speed in terms of veg. Time. Still save’n them dolla bills on the nutes too. Any deficiency issues like the calmag that was representing in mid flower were easily spotted and addressed on the next res. Change. But again, minimal nute mixing (as well as simplistic regime) and for what we’re using in each res. - gotta be easily a 50-60% savings On nute consumption vs. More traditional methods. Honestly makes one wonder why organic soil grows are seemingly all the rage. I’ve found terp. Profiles, structure, plant health and of course yields to all be just that much better in straight water. What more can I say, we love our DWC. Method 🎚️ Not much to say as far as method is concerned as there really wasn’t one. This whole grow was kinda spur of the moment because the cabinet was on empty. We clipped a couple clones and tortured em into submission in the quickest possible time frame. Momma outside is still probably a couple weeks away at this point.... So yes, we will be smoking the mature, dried buds of this years prized outdoor during its actual harvesting. Kinda Trippy man😎🤔. All told the cobs are still beating out even a doubled up pair of quantum boards in a smaller space. I’ve been running this 300w Rapid LED forever and she’s just a horse of a light😎. That said and front to back on a cycle; the pair of 100w spiderfarmers Are not to be underestimated in terms of quality. I am very impressed with how well they’ve performed. Very close in comparison count wise to the cob but still with a little more agility through the veg. Cycle. I can leave one panel off while they’re sprouting and plug the other one in once they’re acclimated and on the grow. The dimmer on my cob really isn’t all that great so this gives the QB a somewhat distinct advantage. Yield/Harvest🌴🌴🌴🌴 For what these plants are, I’m sorry but this rating is 4 palm trees all the way. Less than 3 weeks of veg. No training, minimal defoliation and very easy to trim due to the crazy bud density. Based on proportional size at only 12”-14” These girls made some massive buds👌. If you’re growing for “commercial” production and cloning off a mother; this is exactly the kind of cultivar you’re looking for (Ticks all the boxes too if ur a hobbyist with discerning taste😉). A final, impressive weigh at 2.26oz for the QB clone and a similar 2.4oz for the COB clone😎😎😎. The comparison is pretty striking, but only in how similar they both counted out in the end. Bud structure was a little different but this is due to a difference in power and focus from the cob fixture which is definitely still the front runner. If the clone in that cabinet hadn’t been crowded out by the other two, ya gotta think she’d have weighed a lot more. All told, if these girls can cure out with the same sweet orange crush scent they had at chop then this is going to be quite the treat of a strain to have in the stable👍. Background We’re going to try and flower these out early for a faster sampling. Both will be less than 3 weeks of veg. From date of cutting. It’s also going to be an interesting comparative grow between the cob flowering lights and the doubled up 100w QB’s in each cabinet. My money’s on the COB light for sure but I am expecting much better from the spiderfarmers this time around. This one is really cool - supposed to be very orange citrusy profile with a happy uplifting indica buzz. Surprising given that she’s growing like a typical sativa dominant strain. Either way, no judging until she flowers out. Both are lookn good for now🤞.

@GreenHouseLab, cheers bud - appreciate that. Jury’s still out on these spiderfarmers until this cycle is done. This space seemed a little under powered with just one fixture so I bought another and some aluminum angle and squished em both in there for max light power👍. Thanks for checkn er out👊
