Pineapple Express

89 Day Harvest

The plant was pretty small from the beginning and after harvest check the root system wasn't the biggest either, but over all the plant looked nice and had a really strong and nice smell.

Will update after cure. Pics coming after I get a chance to go through them. Not impressed with the yield, but I'll blame that on me since I wasn't happy with the lights. Upgraded the lighting a little to late to help this girl.

Considering that this was my first ever grow and, and there were a few newbie mistakes, I harvested some really nice bud :grin:

Deffo a nice daytime smoke, nice tingly head buzz and good for smoke sessions with mates. Nice smooth smoke with fruity pine notes.

She didn’t get very tall, 19 ins but I think that was down to my newbieness!! But her colas were nice and chunky and very sticky. Her smell was amazing in the tent, tutti fruitti pineapple with a citrus and pine twist. Towards the end her sugar leaves on some colas had turned purple.

The smell coming off her at harvest time was sooooo nice and she was sticky as hell! Dried her for a week and cured in a jar and boveda pack for a week. She has lost some of her smell in the jar but, when you bust a bud open her smell punches ya nostrils.

Will deffo grow this strain again :+1::skin-tone-2:

--- A DREAM COME TRUE ---
.
As I said at the beginning of the diary, experiencing the pineapple was an old teenage dream since when I saw the excellent film starring seth rogen and james franco, which gave rise to my pseudonym Saul Green.
.
I made no effort to import the seeds that are illegal in my country and to give away a good portion of my room to make a grow behind my wardrobe, playing on low budget and in difficult mode.
.
But as they say, from adversity comes opportunity. And my opportunity was great to increase my skills as a grower.
.
From the beginning I gave everything to this baby, which was my first auto. She had a large vase of 30 liters, good lighting, ventilated space, use of little stressful techniques and lots of love.
.
In an interval of a few days (32 to 44 of life) the plant presented an average growth of 5 cm per day! The buds were ready very fast, the deficiency that the plant suffered did not negatively influence the crop which yielded excellent 55g (1.94 oz) of dry buds. In the end the plant could barely hold its fat buds.
.
About the final product I have to say: It's almost a shame to smoke it. It's like killing a unicorn ... with, like, a bomb.
Definitely the dopest dope i've ever smoked.
.
I have to thank immensely of the fast buds that delivered this amazing strain. And to compensate for the fact that 2 seeds failed, they sent me some testers that I loved.
.
Thanks immensely to grow diaries for this amazing experience. I was able to increase my perception and dedication as a grower.
.
Surely i will plant more pineapple express and other strains of Fast Buds Seeds! :grin:
.
Until the next daily brothers.
