First Time Smokers

This year was my first set of plants ever! So naturally I only had knowledge from books etc...no experience or past mistakes. I learned a lot this year, both from things going right and so many things gone wrong. I managed to overdose my plants with a calmag supplement, snap branches when i didn't mean to, let the plants stretch from lack of sunlight, but still manage to come out with decent buds in the end. The strawberry cough had been an especially odd ball plant from the start so i learned to just roll with the punches with her. I was able to successfully clone her many times just experimenting. She did very well against low temperatures and high, as well as drastically low humidity. I did manage to somehow attract a number of bugs which i couldn't fully banish, so i tried to rely more on the beneficial insects in my yard and buying ladybugs. The most important thing I took away from this grow was to plan out your next moves well in advance. Not days in advance but weeks in advance because anything can change or go wrong and I wanna be prepared for it if it does. *Time not spent planning, is time wasted. Also to defoliated on time, clean up the bottom of my plants of small leaves small buds anything that is taking away energy, and get the big water leaves out of there before harvest time. Big thanks to everyone @growdiaries for all the help, all the Twinkies and WolfPack and GOTM's. ✌️ *one last thing, I'm in the northern hemisphere, and @Dutchpassion showed this strain having a 9 week flowering period, although i was growing outdoors their estimated time was fairly accurate. It was enjoyable to see that it was only off by about 1-2 weeks from the projected 9 weeks.
