DrGreenbutterThumb Looking wonderful I'm satisfied with this out regardless of yield. I do have 2 clones 1 to produce seeds and 1 to flower. Being that this strain was said to be better suited for experienced growers, in what I did I feel accomplished, heavy trichome production and over all healthy

Grow Questions

DrGreenbutterThumbstarted grow question 4y ago

When do you start counting the flowering weeks, when you switch to 12/12, a week after, or once you see first signs of flowers?

CRiSPrGrowanswered grow question 4y ago

Hey there doc ! So it really depends on what is the most useful for you, after all it is your diary whether you record online or not. The main idea why you want to count weeks is to give you a basis to compare to or with. Whatever you choose , just be consistent to make sure your timing remains useful across several genetics . Usually breeders will start counting from when you first flip. Hope this helps ! 🚀

DrGreenbutterThumb Water and natural fruit extract, been adding extract to my younger plants for majority of the grow add they grow well, so in the final weeks of flowering I've been giving her a mixture with 2 different extracts. I smell the flavor whenever I'm close to her. Soon will be harvested at which point I can see how the flavor has been affected

DrGreenbutterThumb I was fun, and educational, I have a clone of the mother plant flowering now, I feel like I could have done a lot better. However it being my first grow, and it being said to be a difficult stain for beginners I'm happy.
