The difficulty I had was finding the right balance during bloom. Eventually I found the lucas formula and that seems to be doing well. Future grows will help determine if it works well.
Edit 2/7 - 2 more pics were added. They seem to show up better. After a hit of this strain, it's very 'heavy.' Definitely a more relaxing sort of vibe.
Original harvest post:
A sad update that's similar to the Maui grow: The plant picked up some powdery mildew from a gifted clone. I lost about half the plant and I'm a little skeptical about what's left.
Anyway, the strain is suuuuper frosty. The surviving nugs need about 2 weeks to finish curing.
There are a few more clones that are about ready to go into flowering. I'm looking forward to a good run since I worked out a few kinks during this grow. Hopefully nothing extreme comes up during the next grow. The clones are looking good, and the WPM has been almost eliminated since I've started spraying stuff down with potassium bicarbonate. Wettable Sulpher will also be added in the future. That'll all be sprayed throughout veg and the first week or two of flower.
The lucas formula is looking good for everything in veg and it seemed to work well in flower. It sucks that I ran into the earlier feeding problems. The plant seemed to do well besides that issue.
Overall it was a good grow. I definitely learned a lot and am thankful for this strain. On to the next round!
I may occasionally add more pics to this journal of future shockwave grows.

This is a tester pack.
"Description: Shockwave is a cross between Shark Shock and our Alien Rift male. Most phenotypes exhibit floral berry odors with a hint of your old sweaty gym bag. Vigorous vertical growth if left un-topped; low-stress training techniques are encouraged to supplement yields. Flowers will reach maturity from 7 – 8.5 weeks, with most phenotypes finishing after 55 days. Expect greasy, frosty flowers – this is an ideal strain for extract artists and flower-lovers alike."
