I'm not 100% sure what to think of Jack's yet, but deep down I still feel like it's better than liquid nutes and not knowing the macro/micro splits.

Orange Kush Cake

I think it was mostly me, but I had a lot of difficulty with this grow it felt like. I think I'm going to gravitate away from DWC and go with coco to make my life easier. I think I'm going to grow this again in a new setup and see what happens. The plant structure itself I love. It's especially ideal for SCROG because I don't have nearly the volume of leaves to deal with. I felt it was easy to train. The internodal spacing of the bud sites is really amazing. The buds are literally hard as rocks, even what would normally be larfy stuff well below the light. Outside of my particular problems, this has been one of the more ideal structured plants....I'd say the best for me so far.

They went out of business and my dimmer crapped out with only one grow. I'm stuck with the light for now because I'd like to get my monies worth. I will have to live with moving the light up and down for now, but it's not ideal.

Outside of my particular problems, this has been one of the more ideal structured plants....I'd say the best for me so far. This is an excellent bud. It is a very strong euphoric high that lasts for a long time. It's a nice clean diesel / citrus taste. The left plant smells very diesel. The right plant is more citrus leaning. It's hitting very clean after a little over a week of jar curing. Very high quality! The yield I got off these two plants is fucking nuts. I was clutching my pearls the whole time thinking I was going to barely get 12 ounces total, and this strain just knocked it out of the park at 18.9 ounces. If you look at my grow space (6.87ft squared trellis size), I far exceeded even the highest expectations I had. That is over 800grams per meter squared. The buds are just super hard nugs that grind very well into a lot of grind material. This strain just blew me away in all categories. I ABSOLUTELY have to grow it again.

Best light ever for my grow room. It literally couldn't be more perfect.

I think it looks awesome. I had high expectations, but the high from this breed didn't "wow" me. The extract (FECO) had an acrid taste to it unless I got an extremely clean wash using the QWET method. The smoke also caused me to have more chest congestion. I think the seeds were fine, no major issues growing. The strain I wasn't too pleased with personally. I believe the breeder did a good job with the genetics itself, I just don't really care for this strain, personally.

Hydroguard, a MUST HAVE for any Hydro grower. All I can say is, I wished I'd known about it sooner.

Roots Excelurator Silver continues to do a great job at what it's for. I used the Drip Clean because I was running a bubbler this time and I didn't have any issues with it.

I was turned on to Jack's by a forum post on a popular cannabis forum. After doing my research on it, I decided to start using it. I love this stuff, and I'm never turning back! You know EXACTLY what you are feeding your plants, and the cost savings compared to liquid fertilizers is ENORMOUS.

Again, for under $100...and the yields speak for themselves. This is the Perfect light for a new grower, especially if the grower is jumping into autoflowers.

Sour Apple Autoflower
Growing it
Normal

I do not believe this strain was particularly hard to grow. I have never grown an autoflower before, and this was my first attempt at growing one. I would also like to admit that this strain was not a “pick” of mine. I had ordered a different autoflower strain and it turned out they didn’t have any in stock. I asked for an equivalent autoflower (same breeder) and this was what I got. It’s also why I chose to use this breed in particular for my maiden voyage of growing an autoflower in my newly re-designed grow room 2.0. As you can see from the grow; between the two plants, the “happy” one I think was probably the expected pheno. It grew vigorous and was literally dripping with trichomes...I’ve never seen so much ever. The “sad” plant grew quite a bit differently with how it’s leaves were and trichome production. Also, the “sad” plant had a distinct petroleum / diesel smell whereas the “happy” plant had a more sweet fruity profile. I have only tried some MCT oil infused with FECO. Unfortunately I don’t really have a good measurement of how much FECO is in my infusion because I used the MCT oil like a solvent to clean up the Pyrex 9x15 dish I was using to evaporate my extract in. I’m assuming it’s approximately 1ml of FECO to 1oz MCT oil. Anyhow, the FECO infused MCT oil has provided a calm Sativa head high that lasts for about 5 hours after it kicks in. It takes just shy of 2 hours for me to take affect, but I’m also 6’1’’ and weight 215 lbs. I know for me a number of Sativa dominate strains usually provide a racey high at first, but the infusion has not done that for me. I will provide smoke reports and such in about a month once the bud is done curing.

Hydroguard is a total lifesaver and I will be using it forever more. Liquid Karma is also a very solid product which I've used in multiple grows with great success. I will not be using the Liquid Karma in futures grows, and instead will be opting for a dry fulvic acid.

House & Garden is a solid line of nutrients. After my deep dive into fertilizers, I've decided I'll be using something else moving forward. My reasoning is due to price per gallon of reservoir solution, and knowing exactly the chemical makeup of the fertilizer ingredients, which H&G only provides the basic NPK ratio's.

It's a good product, but in my case it was a mistake using it with the House & Garden nutrient lineup.

I think the yield's I got with this light speak for themselves. This light exceeded my expectations, and the price is right. This would be a great starter light for new growers, or those on a budget (like myself). I will eventually graduate from this light, but I'll be using it for full grows for the foreseeable future right now.

This strain must be a real ass-kicker to have lasted as long as it did. I carried this thing around with me for at least 7 years (closer to 8). I am terribly impressed with genetics that can still pop after so long. I do a lot of vegetable growing, and speaking from that experience, vegetable seeds under the same conditions I carried that LH seed around with would not have propagated period. I do wonder if due to the age of the seed it affected my total outcome at harvest. Otherwise, the problems experienced during the grow were self induced. 6/1/2021 - Hash report - Uplifting mix of head/body high. I feel very positive about life, calm, retrospective, not particularly talkative, enjoying the small things like a spring breeze, the way the trees dance in the breeze. I don't feel incapacitated physically or mentally, which is a big plus for me as I am a high activity person. I will say the 73 micron hash put me to sleep after two big hits, a coughing fit, and a shit load of cookies. That might just be circumstantial due to the smoked ribs and baked potato I polished off before the cookies... 6/8/2021 - Bud report - I am not smoking it till it's fully cured. Smells mostly of herbs right now. In fact, one jar smelled almost like rosemary I swear. 8/13/2021 - This bud is very pungent!!! I would have to say this is the most fragrant bud I've ever grown! It's a mix of spices, lime, and a "somewhat" diesel after-taste. The bud is racy at first, but quickly calms down to an uplifting daytime high that lasts for at least 2 hours. The flavor and smell is excellent, but definitely not discreet. I would definitely grow this plant again!
