GROWING: It was an awesome experience growing this plant, it´s so amazing to see it from seedling to a big and beautiful plant. I couldn´t ask for anything more on my first grow. It is an incredible genetic, strong from pests and stress. This one seems to have been a really strong phenotype, hence my other harvest I did last week were a NL of mine had a really weak pheno and had stunted twice. Also, I thing that I found to be awesome was the purplish colors it developed on the top buds, I think due to cold temperatures. The roots developed pretty well, maybe even started rootbounding. It´s really a great genetic overall, beautiful, dense, sticky and smelly buds. And I´m really happy with the results, the weight was pretty good and quality looks and smells to be awesome. Would I recommend it? Absolutely, it´s as easy to grow and forgiving as it can be. SMOKING: So, first off I want to start saying that I´m really really happy with how it turned out. It´s incredibly pleasurable to smoke and even tho it doesn´t have a high THC grade, it´s strong enough for a 1 gram~/day consumer. The taste is mainly woody, then in the aftertaste I got herbal and a little earthy/pine. The high is really good and smooth, better for the night time or when you don´t have chores to do, because first: you will be waaaay too relaxed and sleepy to have will to even move (and the thricomes weren´t even 10% amber); second, I got a little dumb and slow, I confess. By the way, doing this review is a little hard right now because of this. But the high is really good for enjoying something, I got really chilled out. The negative side is that my eyes and mouth are a little dry, but not anything that bad. And I´m hungry. Really hungry. Well, I guess that´s it. It´s a really good smoke, the high is good, it has an awesome taste and it´s overall incredibly pleasurable. Now, I´m going to make something to eat. Thanks for reading! I really appreciate comments! Peace.

Nutrients
Bio-Bizz nutrient line is awesome. All organic and does its purpose with excellence.
Pretty good Cal-Mag, even tho I´m thinking it might have a little bit of unnecessary Nitrogen.
Really good organic soil nutrient. Insanely easy to use (basically newbie-proof, which was good to me, even tho I am for now prefering to use liquid nutrients).
Lights
Very good light for flowering. Low temps and very high quality growth. I actually expected more yield but the results were really satisfying.
I don´t feel it is a really good veg light, but I can´t say much about flowering.

Bud wet weight : 168,1g of trimmed medium to big sized buds 25,4g of tiny tiny buds/larfs = 193.5 grams of trimmed wet buds. Details on genetics and smoke report above. This, as my first grow, is way more than I ever expected it to be. I haven´t had that much fun and enthusiasm in a very very long time. I can´t even explain the feeling it is to harvest your own cannabis, but I know most of you know what I´m talking about haha. It was really nice to practice LST, even tho it was SO HARD, ´cause I didn´t had barely any space to work since I used a hard pot and did not fill nearly half the size of it and the walls of the pot were really high. It was even difficult to water without dropping water on the lower buds. I haven´t learnt much about defoliation tho, I feel I need to study a little more about the phases you should or should not do it. Also, I discovered thrips are a pain in the ass. I had 2 tough weeks dealing with thrips, but in the end it was alright. I don´t have any humidity control device, which I intend to buy for the next grows. Growdiaries was really helpful for me, it kept me motivated everyday (not that I wouldn´t have had it anyways), the Grow Questions are REALLY useful and all the community is awesome. Thanks to all people that helped me here on GD during this first grow! To conclude it: I am really happy and satisfied with how the grow turned out. They look incredible, it almost feels like I can´t believe it still. Peace. UPDATES: 07/10 : The buds are now dry and already in curing jars, one of them with a Boveda 58% humidity pack. The total grams of the dry buds are: 41.4g (medium to big sized buds) 4.1g (tiny buds) = 45.5 grams! I´m really happy with the results, I thought it would be around 30g so yeah, that´s a really good surprise! In 2 weeks I´ll be back to update the smoke report. Thanks so much for reading! Peace. 09/10 : I managed to fit everything in the same container with some space between them, so now every bud is with the Boveda pack. 14/10: It´s been a week and the smell improved, it still smells a little like hay/plant ( even tho it´s not too dry neither too wet ). 21/10: Now it´s been two weeks and even tho the smell isn´t anymore hay, it´s a lot herbal. I really think the aroma can get better, but the taste is already good enough for me. The smoke report has been done and in case I have something to add, I´ll report here. Thank you so much for reading! Peace.

What kind of deficiency or excess is this? I couldn´t find anything that matched it. It was from a bottom leaf that wasn´t getting much light and was pretty close to the soil. TIA!

Hi mate, what you see is nature. Its normal for these first leaves to die as the plant flowers. Normally around week 10 all big fan leaves should be dead. Checked from you diary the whole of the plant and looks great. Nothing to worry here. Hope was helpful.

Hey there, unfortunately my friend this is magnesium deficiency. This you can see from the yellowing on the sides of the leaf. This is not due to the nutrients actually but the light schedule. 18hs means the plant goes in photosynthesis "overdrive" meaning it needs more magnesium per day than normal. overtime you find a deficiency. To stop the problem from spreading add calmag more regularly as well as lower the light schedule as much as you're comfortable with. Remember : THC and Terpenes degrade with light meaning less light often means more potent product 😉 Hope this helps 🚀

Very slight nuet damage. Reduce the nitrogen slightly by dropping Bio-Grow to half current dose. Watch new growth, sugar leaves etc

Its all good. Just gets less light than the upper canopy. Also, the plant stops using nitrogen in the lower fan leaves first, its why they start falling of at the bottom later in life

So, a week ago the thricomes were looking almost ready, pretty much 90% cloudy and 10% clear. Now I checked it and it looks less mature, the thrics are looking 75% cloudy, 20% clear and 5% amber. Also, it looks like it is developing new growth after a week of no apparent growth.

The new growth and trichomes changing are because the plant has more than likely went too long, looks like she wants to start fox tailing. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.
