Growing this cultivar started out quite challenging with her going through a daily major wilt that took a bit to figure out what she wanted. In the end I realized that she was just very fussy as a youngster (wanted a TON of water and didn't like the 18 hour long days). Once she matured she continued to be a 'drinker', drying out her 10g pot daily. She grew tall and proud, handled up to 1400ppms 2.8 EC of nutrients without skipping a beat and ended up with a marvelous dark maroon coloration with hints of red that were contrasted by the heavy, frosty coating of glistening trichomes she produced throughout the last 5 weeks of her 9 week flower. She does have really wide node spacing so prepare yourself for daily 'leaf tucking' to ensure the lower canopy gets enough light. All in all she was an absolute joy to grow, taught me a couple of things and provided some of the most beautiful, pungent, dense and sticky flower I have grown! I WILL be growing this genotype again and would recommend it, especially to experienced growers as she can be a bit finicky. The breeder recommends 30-45 day veg and advertises an 8 week flower. I vegged her for 60 days and flowered her for a full 9 weeks, the last two of which had the light cycle dropped to 10/14 to further induce trichome production (which along with the 72hrs. of dark apparently worked) which is a reminder to you new guy's that Breeder times are not 'cut in stone' and are a 'general recommendation'. Always know your plant and check the trichomes to determine exactly when the ideal harvest time has arrived as so many variables can affect harvest times. Grow Strong! 😎🙏
