Was easy to grow a yielded a LOT, but ended up with little flavor and smell. It looked fantastic, covered in trichs and red hairs, but just didn't deliver in the flavor/smell dept. Could have been user error, of course, so I may try again in the future.

Nutrients
I've used the FoxFarm trio line before, so felt comfortable with it. I've never grown autos before, so not sure how much the trio or the extended line helped or hindered the grow.
I think I used this less than I needed to and got it a little late into the grow, but it's definitely good to have.
Lights
I was honestly surprised by this light. It ran a little hot, but definitely produced nice buds. I had 2 of these, but one for each plant in a 2x4 tent. I would recommend this light for someone starting out that wants to see if they like it and/or can produce plants through their full cycle, but the cost of 2 of these is the same as a Kingbrite, so I'd recommend that over 2x of these.

This strain was super easy to grow and produced a MASSIVE yield. Out of the 5.85 total oz, about 2 oz of that was light, fluffy, and unwanted, so it went into the hash pile and left me with about 4 oz to smoke. In hindsight, I should have pruned all of the bud off of the bottom half of that plant early since most of that didn't produce very well. Two weeks prior to harvest, I fed with water only in hopes to flush and reduce any harshness. The grow itself easy and I mostly followed a reduced strength FoxFarm feeding cycle after the 4th week. Unfortunately, the harvest turned out with very little flavor and smell. Buds smell a little gassy when you break them up or compress them and stick your nose in there, however none of that translates in flavor. I'm sure if it has anything to do with the light, soil, or nutrients, so I've opted to upgrade my light to a higher quality QB light, use less nutrients along with Recharge, and try different genetics. The buds are still potent and smoking them definitely gives you the same effect, it's just less enjoyable than if it would have had a sour & gassy smell/flavor. The buds did start to foxtail toward the end which wasn't really too bad, but it was annoying to see fresh buds growing on (almost) mature buds. I also found a few immature white seeds on the lower buds that went into the hash pile, but no pollen sacks. One must have slipped by me. The smoke is much more harsh and less fragrant (when burned) than the Glue Gelato grown in the same tent. When smoking the flower between the two plants, I normally opted for the Glue Gelato because it had a better flavor and smell (albeit only slightly better). The taste is almost hay-like. It's possible this dried out too fast. I had trouble keeping up the humidity in the drying room, so had to move this to large paper grocery bags. According to the hygrometer in the bag RH went from 78 to 58 over 7 days before being jarred on Nov 6. The hygrometer was salt tested and calibrated before going in the bag, so I'm fairly certain it was correct. The bubble hash is actually WAY more than I was expecting for a 31g run. I'm not sure if I'm going to keep the 73u separate as bubble and press the rest, or combine everything together and do a low temp press, but I'll figure it out over the next few days. I'll most likely put everything together and press it. I tried pressing about an ounce of the flower, but only ended up with 1.7g of really dark rosin. It definitely made better bubble hash and I expect a better quality yield after pressing the rosin. Since both this plant and the other plant in the same tent came out similarly (little smell & flavor) - I'm fairly sure it was either the light, nutrients, or medium. Hopefully the next grow comes out more pungent. Regardless, this grow gave me a ton of bud to smoke on, a nice handful of bubble hash (soon to be hash rosin), and some good experience under my belt, so it's not all negative. Edit notes: Looks like the lights are miscalculated. I tried to fix it, but I think I made it worse. For clarification, I used the 115w RA1000 lights (which were supposed to be 1000w equivalent), so I guess that really comes out to 1.43g/w. The tent had two plants and they each had their own light, but I'm unsure if both should be in the grams per watt calculation or not..

@Gutismoke102, Thanks - yours are looking good too! Looks like they're both about the same age (or I'm 1 week behind). None of the other grow diaries I've seen of this strain looked like mine except for yours so I'm going to be keeping an eye on that.

@TheUk420Show, Awe man - I wish. They were still pretty short, around 24" (61cm) but the LST really helped them produce. Final results are 118 of the dense, good smokable buds, and 46g of airy/small buds in the hash pile. Totaling 164g or 5.85oz. Harvest diary will come soon along with a smoke report.

Great diary man! Id say your issue with the lack of smell/taste was definitely due to the cheaper lights and not even anything to do with the light output bc you wouldnt have yielded as well if that was the case but the actual light spectrum the LEDs put out. Howd pressing the bubble turn out though and how were the terps on that?

@DrWeird, Must have been an alright return if you were trying for diamonds and sauce man fair play ๐Ÿ˜‚ But the upgrade will be sure to reflect in the next batch, I went from shitty 150w setup off amazon to the spiderfarmer sf2000 and sf1000 a couple months ago and still cant believe the difference, the new samsung chips are rediculously bright for the energy they use๐Ÿ˜ต

@ElMangoLoco451, thanks for the input! I'm also thinking that when the temps went over 80F for an hour or two a day, that also contributed to this. Also noticed the leaves tacoing a bit too. Well I'm glad I upgraded to the Kingbrite for the next run The bubble wasn't bad, until I tried to get diamonds using the jartech method and basically decarbed it. Well.. next time will be better ๐Ÿคฃ
