Dropped 1 seed in paper towel on Feb 1st and will check it in 24 hours. Small tail popped in 24 hours so into seed starting mix she went under 18 hour light. So after only 5 days from putting her in paper towel she has broken ground on Feb 5th.

Gave this a vape the other night for the first time and she has a nice smooth sweet taste to her. Definitely a good full body relaxing strain for evening use, I don't think anything productive will happen while smoking this bud.

This strain was a pleasure to grow. She loved the combo of Gaia Green, Bokashi and Dynomyco products that I used on her. She stayed very short and did well with the 8 way main technique. She has very strong branches so the LST was a bit of a challenge to bend her without breaking. She took a topping without hesitation and with only a short 36 day above ground veg before flipping she produced a healthy 101 grams of very dense fragrant flower. I had good airflow and a low 35%humidity through most of her flowering so I did not defoliate but would recommend a good defoliation at flip and after 2 weeks of flowering if you don't have ideal conditions. She started showing signs of flower at about 10 days after flip which is expected with such an indica dominant strain. I hung her to dry at a not so ideal 50% humidity and 22°C for 5 days before placing the buds in a bag to even out the dry. After a couple days in a bag I did the final manicure and jarred her up where I will continue to burp her if it gets above 62% and will do so until she stays close to 60%. I will add a smoke report once I have the pleasure of sampling this beauty.

@Organicfrost, those results dont come from a bad growing eviroment 💪 BESTO OF LUCK!
Organicfrost
Organicfrostcommented4 years ago
@Pennello, thanks for the kind words. Yes my room is at 35% humidity and have very good air movement so mold has never been an issue indoors. Outdoors is a whole other beast with 100% humidity for the last 4 weeks of flower where I am and is why I moved indoors to a controlled environment.

@Organicfrost, Great replying from a great grower! It does make sense, can't agree more, I bet if you have perfect good condition (as you surely have) they won't mind those extra leaves. I do it for the circulation and to avoid any mold.. you are not a first timer, I'm sure you know your stuff :) I'll keep following you mate!

@GMSgrows, true and I feel a lot of people just try and do too much. Keep it simple and they grow but yes my daughter jokes that I have a green body not just a thumb

@Organicfrost, For sure, but look around at some of the grows on here. Even with all the help here, some even with great genetics, just ain't got the green thumb. Enjoy your fruits my friend....
