Buds swelling and smells great

These plants got huge. Two of the three were immune to powdery mildew. The third was highly resistant. Saying resistance was strong doesn't do them justice. I included one of the buckets of buds with weight. I had to do that 9 and 10 times depending on plant. Everything went smooth. We missed all the bad weather and got a good dry couple of days to finish harvest. These went a little longer than the 7 weeks. I believe that's because of the suns travel to the south. As it travelled these girls didn't get full sun until after 9:30 a.m. and until 4.20 p.m. They were definitely worth the wait.

All looking healthy the one strawb banana that didn’t germ ended up sprouting out the soil but I think the shrooms claimed the soil first my bad fast buds smashing it as usual 🤟giving them 24hrs of darkness trying to harden them off for outdoor end of this week hopefully waiting on last bits to arrive for the soil

Die letzten Wochen.... Es sieht so aus als ob man immer eine nach der andern Ernten muss, macht nichts hab nichts mehr.... Und Lemon Cherry Cookies riecht einfach nach Erdbeeren mit Milchschokolade 😋🤞🏼👍🏼💚 das soll eine Pflanze sein 🇺🇸🤤🇺🇸🤤🇺🇸🤤🇺🇸

Ernte Die Pflanze wurde kurz nach der neunten Blütewoche geerntet, etwa drei Tage später, als die meisten Trichome milchig waren und vereinzelt schon bernsteinfarbene zu sehen waren. Ziel war ein eher euphorisches, klares High – und das wurde auch erreicht. Die Trocknung lief über etwa zehn Tage bei Temperaturen zwischen 15 und 21 °C und einer Luftfeuchtigkeit von rund 55 bis 62 %. Die Bedingungen waren stabil, und die Buds konnten langsam und schonend trocknen. Nach dem Trocknen wurden die Blüten manikürt und anschließend in Gläser mit Feuchtigkeitspacks gelegt, um das Curing zu starten. Die Buds waren zu diesem Zeitpunkt sehr klebrig, harzig und haben stark geglitzert, mit einem intensiven, süß-zitronigen Geruch. Update nach 4 Wochen: Trocknung & Curing Nach der Ernte wurde die Amnesia Lemon insgesamt etwa 10 Tage lang langsam getrocknet. Die Temperaturen lagen dabei meist zwischen 15–21 °C bei einer Luftfeuchtigkeit von ungefähr 55–62 %. Durch die eher kühlen Bedingungen konnten die Blüten langsam und kontrolliert trocknen, ohne zu schnell auszuhärten. Bereits während der Trocknung entwickelte sich ein sehr intensiver Geruch. Besonders auffällig waren starke Zitronen- und süßliche Terpennoten, kombiniert mit einer leicht würzigen Frische. Anfangs war noch ein leichter Heugeruch vorhanden, der sich im Verlauf des Curings jedoch deutlich abgebaut hat. Nach dem Trocknen wurden die Buds manikürt und anschließend in Braungläser mit 58 % bzw. 62 % Feuchtigkeitspacks gelagert. Während der ersten Wochen des Curings veränderte sich das Aroma nochmals deutlich. Der Geruch wurde tiefer, runder und deutlich angenehmer. Beim Öffnen der Gläser kommt inzwischen ein extrem intensiver süß-zitroniger Duft entgegen, der sich sofort im Raum verteilt. Die Blüten besitzen mittlerweile eine sehr gute Konsistenz: außen trocken, innen noch leicht elastisch und insgesamt sehr kompakt und harzig. Das Raucherlebnis wurde über die Wochen ebenfalls spürbar angenehmer und weicher. Eine spätere Messung mit einem Purpl Pro bestätigte schließlich ein sehr gelungenes Endergebnis: 21 % THC 10,3 % Restfeuchtigkeit 0,4 AW Wasseraktivität Besonders positiv hervorgehoben wurden dabei die optimale Trocknung sowie der intensive Geruch des Samples. Insgesamt ein sehr erfolgreiches Endergebnis mit starkem Aroma, angenehmem Rauchverhalten und einer klaren, kopflastigen entspannten Wirkung. 😋

Zdar všem.Tak jsem se dočkal a poslední hlášení s mými opičkami.Den květu 67. Jantary už jsou místy vidět,takže přesně čas.Jak bych to shrnul.Troufam si říct že jsem dost načetl o indooru,ještě než jsem vůbec v boxu rozsvítil a to mi dost pomohlo a byl jsem připraven.A samozřejmě videa od Hombreho jsem měl nakoukany,díky ti takhle veřejně. Výběr semínek: Věděl jsem že chci Barney's, takže klasika na stránkách filtr (vysoké thc,vysoký výnos atd) a pak jsem kouknul na HD na žebříček a vybíral mezi Zillions a Gorilla zkittlez. Volba padla na gorily,ani nevím proč vlastně.Seminka 3/3 vyklíčila a mohli jsme začít.S nějakými problémy jsem se ani moc nesetkal,občas nějaké malé deficity v kvetu,hlavně na jedné holce,ktera byla víc žravá a jako jediná končila na 3ml/L calmagu. Největší strach jsem měl ze zvířátek,jelikož jsem měl smutnicomix,jak se u nás přezdívá Biobizz lightmix.Ale ani muška naštěstí.Co bych dnes udělal jinak?Nic zásadního mě nenapadá,možná vzít v květové defoliaci ještě víc tich spodků,ale samotného mě zajímalo co tam dole vyroste.Uvidime další kolo,jestli to nebylo štěstí začátečníka.Ale já jsem maximálně spokojen a na tom záleží nejvíc.Léto asi pauza a na podzim,začneme další kolo ICE Tower (Hombre seeds) a možná ten Zillions k němu přidám.Takže hezké léto všem 💚

In einer Woche wird angefangen mit spühlen. Ansonsten läuft es perfekt. Ich kann es kaum erwarten!!!

Peccato per le dimensioni ma è tutta colpa mia, come di un odore assolutamente pazzesco! Autofiorente migliore

Been a little hot this week but I figure 2 about 2 weeks to go and chop

Tangerine Band grew excellent. She was the biggest plant in the run of 4. She grew vigorously and has some really frosty colas on her. She actually got too big for my grow space. I am cutting her down today and everything looks great. Thank you Exotic Seeds, Spider Farmer, and Athena nutrition. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Sorry my video cut off mid harvest and I lost the last half of the Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

3/23: I let them go totally dry this time and fed them with about 3/4 gallon each including terpinator, signal, sweet & sticky, cal-mag, armor si, cha ching, tiger bloom, big bloom, and humic acid. This was probably the last time the shorter one gets any nutes. She's ripening up now.😃 3/27: I watered them today with about 3/4 gallon of filtered water with sticky & sweet, terpinator, signal, cal-mag, and a little bit of cha ching. I looked them over pretty well. Soooperrunt is the furthest behind of the three plants, but her cola is gonna be massive. This was the last time that the other two get any nutes at all. I'll flush them once they are dry.

💜 8×8 Adventure – Harvest Diary 🌿 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno B ❄️👑 THE LITTLE FROSTY QUEEN HAS REACHED HARVEST! — SMALLER PLANT, BIG PERSONALITY! 💎🌸💜 Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 My friends... HERE WE ARE AGAIN! 😂😂😂💜 Another harvest report, another beautiful girl, another collection of photographs, and another opportunity to remind everyone that this adventure has given us twelve individual plants with twelve individual stories. And yes... We're splitting the reports again! 😂📸 I know, I know. At this point, some of you might be thinking: "Doc, are we ever going to finish looking at these harvests?" YES! WE WILL! But first, we need to give every girl her moment. 😂💜🌿 Today, we're giving the spotlight to our Purple Haze Pheno B by Zamnesia. Our Little Frosty Queen. The smaller sister. The girl who took her time, stayed more compact than her Big Mama sister, and eventually gave us a beautiful harvest of her own. And if there's one thing I want to make clear from the beginning, it's this: Smaller doesn't mean less beautiful. This girl had her own character throughout the 8×8 Adventure, and she deserves to have her journey documented properly. ❄️💎👑 This report is focused on harvest day and the beginning of the post-harvest chapter. We also took a few photographs of the drying rack, even though our approach was to dry the plant whole. There is more to come, including the trimming report, detailed post-harvest observations, and the smoke review. So please bear with me if the structure feels familiar! 😂💚 We're not repeating ourselves because we have nothing new to say. We're documenting each individual plant separately, and each one deserves a complete story of her own. Let's give our Little Frosty Queen the attention she deserves! ──────────────────────── ❄️ THE LITTLE FROSTY QUEEN — FROM SEED TO HARVEST If you've followed this diary from the beginning, you already know this girl's story. Purple Haze Pheno B was part of our 8×8 Adventure, where twelve individual plants shared the same general growing environment under our 12/12-from-seed approach. From the early stages, this girl developed differently from her sister. She stayed more compact. She took her time. And while the Big Mama was making herself noticed through her size and substantial structure, Pheno B was quietly developing her own personality. 😂💜👑 For a while, we were waiting to see what she would show us. And then, as the flowering weeks progressed, those flowers became increasingly interesting. The compact structure remained. The flowers developed. And the frost became one of the most striking features of this phenotype. That was the moment when our description of her really started to make sense. The Little Frosty Queen! ❄️💎🌸 She didn't need to become as tall as her sister. She didn't need to occupy the same amount of space. She didn't need to follow the same developmental timeline. She simply needed to be herself. And now, after following her through the growing journey, we're finally documenting her harvest. What a beautiful way to close this chapter! ──────────────────────── 👭 TWO SISTERS, TWO DIFFERENT STORIES One of my favourite things about this part of the 8×8 Adventure is being able to compare the two Purple Haze phenotypes. Not because we're trying to decide which one is better. But because the differences are so interesting to observe. 💜 PHENO A — THE BIG MAMA 👑 A more substantial plant with plenty of presence. 🌿 A larger overall structure. 🌸 Beautiful flowers that earned her own studio photos. 💜 PHENO B — THE LITTLE FROSTY QUEEN ❄️ A more compact, more modest plant. 💎 A beautiful frosty appearance. 🌸 Her own distinctive flower presentation. 💜 A different developmental journey from her sister. Same genetic family. Same general room. Same overall growing approach. Two different expressions. And both are worth celebrating. 😂💜🌿 This is exactly why I enjoy following individual phenotypes instead of assuming that plants with the same genetic name will develop identically. The Big Mama gave us one story. The Little Frosty Queen gave us another. And now we have two separate harvest diaries documenting those journeys from their own perspectives. Neither needs to imitate the other. Both deserve their own spotlight. ──────────────────────── 💎 THAT BEAUTIFUL FROST — HER SIGNATURE LOOK Let's be honest... The frost was one of the first things that made this girl stand out. ❄️💎💜 Throughout the later flowering updates, we kept coming back to the same observation: when you looked closely at her flowers, there was so much to appreciate. Her compact structure gave her a different appearance from her sister, while the visible resin contributed to that beautiful frosty look. And that's what I want people to remember when they look through these harvest photographs. We aren't looking at a smaller version of the Big Mama. We're looking at a different individual plant with her own expression. The overall size is one part of the picture. The flower structure is another. The appearance, colours, and visible resin add further details. And when you bring all those elements together, you get the Little Frosty Queen we have been following throughout this adventure. 💜❄️👑 She may have been more modest in size, but she certainly didn't disappear into the background. She made herself noticed in her own way. And I'm glad we took the time to document that. ──────────────────────── ✂️ HARVEST DAY — ANOTHER GIRL COMPLETES HER JOURNEY And then came harvest day! 🌿💜 After all those weeks of observing, photographing, and documenting her progress, we reached the moment when her growing chapter came to an end. There's always something satisfying about reaching this point in a diary. We remember the earlier photographs. We remember the weeks when the plant was still developing. We remember the questions we had along the way. And then we get to look at the harvest and appreciate the journey as a whole. For Pheno B, that journey was all about her own rhythm. She was the smaller sister. She developed at her own pace. And she gradually revealed more of her individual character as the flowering stage progressed. Now we've reached harvest, and we're moving into the post-harvest documentation. I'm keeping this chapter focused on the harvest itself rather than trying to squeeze every detail into one report. There will be time to discuss trimming, aroma, flavour, and the rest of the post-harvest experience in the next updates. For now, let's appreciate the milestone. Another Purple Haze phenotype has completed her growing journey! 💜🌿👑 ──────────────────────── 🌿 DRYING THE PLANT WHOLE — WITH A FEW PHOTOGRAPHIC DETOURS! Our approach was to dry the plant whole. But, naturally, the camera had other plans! 😂📸 We also took a few photographs of the drying rack because we had the space to capture that part of the process. And I think it's worth including those images in the diary. They help document the transition from harvest day into the drying stage, rather than leaving a gap between the plant in the growing room and the flowers we'll be discussing in the trimming report. The whole-plant drying approach is part of this girl's post-harvest story. The additional drying-rack photographs are simply another way to preserve the moment and show a little more of what happened after harvest. And if you've been following my diaries for a while, you already know that I like documenting these details. 😂💚📸 I want to be able to look back at these reports and remember not only what the flowers looked like, but also the different stages that brought us from the living plant to the post-harvest process. The harvest is one milestone. Drying is another. Trimming will have its own chapter. And the smoke review will follow when we're ready to discuss that part of the experience. One step at a time, my friends! ──────────────────────── 📸 A SMALLER HARVEST REPORT… BUT STILL PLENTY TO SHOW! Now, let's talk about the photographs. 😂😂😂 Compared with some of the other harvest diaries, this one is a little more modest. We have fewer photographs in this particular chapter, but there is still plenty to share. We've got the harvest-day views, photographs showing the plant and her flowers, and a few shots of the drying rack. And remember, this isn't the complete photographic collection for the entire post-harvest journey. We're splitting the documentation into separate reports so that each stage has room to breathe. The harvest-day photographs show us the plant at this important transition. The drying-rack images give us another view of the post-harvest process. The next report will focus on the trimming stage and the details we want to discuss there. So, no, this isn't the end of the Little Frosty Queen's photographic adventure! 😂💜📸 We're simply taking it one chapter at a time. And although there may be fewer photographs here than in some of the other reports, every image contributes to her story. ──────────────────────── 🔬 THE 8×8 ADVENTURE — TWELVE PLANTS, TWELVE INDIVIDUAL STORIES For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8×8 Adventure! We're following twelve individual plants and phenotypes through a shared project, documenting their development and observing the differences between them. The plants shared the same general growing environment, lighting ecosystem, and overall approach to care. But they didn't all develop in the same way. Some grew taller. Some stayed compact. Some progressed quickly. Others took longer. And even two Purple Haze phenotypes gave us noticeably different stories. 💜👑 The Big Mama made her presence felt through her overall size and structure. ❄️💎 The Little Frosty Queen remained more compact while developing her own beautiful flower expression. That's the part I love about this project. We aren't trying to force every plant into the same shape or timeline. We're documenting what happens and appreciating the differences as they appear. The growing stage is now complete for Pheno B, and we're continuing that documentation into harvest and post-harvest. The story doesn't end when the plant leaves the growing room. There's still plenty to document, discuss, and learn from. Twelve plants. Twelve personalities. Twelve individual journeys. And another beautiful chapter completed! 💚🌿 ──────────────────────── 💡 THE LIGHTING TEAM BEHIND THE 8×8 ADVENTURE Throughout this project, our main lighting ecosystem has included the Future of Grow Black Series LEDs, with two additional Black Series 600W fixtures supplied for us to test. We've been documenting the expanded setup as part of the wider project, including our approach of controlling the output rather than simply running every fixture at maximum. The previous room reference was approximately 59% power from the plug, with around 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. Actual intensity varied with plant height and position. The Lumiflora lighting also contributed an additional dimension to the setup deeper in the canopy. These are part of the shared environment we documented throughout the growing journey, rather than claims that any single piece of equipment explains the differences between the two Purple Haze phenotypes. Their individual development is what makes the comparison interesting. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series fixtures for this experiment! 💡🔥 Thank you to Lumiflora for being part of the lighting ecosystem, and to TrolMaster for helping us manage and monitor the room behind the scenes. The equipment is part of the story. The plants are the stars. And our Little Frosty Queen has certainly earned her place in the spotlight! 💜🌿❄️ ──────────────────────── 💬 COME JOIN THE DOG DOCTOR COMMUNITY!

And now, my friends, we have the next chapter waiting for us. 😂✂️💜 This report has been about the harvest day, the Little Frosty Queen's journey, and the beginning of her post-harvest story. The next report will take us into the trimming stage. We'll have more photographs to share, and we'll give that part of the process the attention it deserves. We'll also discuss the aromas, flavours, and the rest of the post-harvest experience in the appropriate report, rather than trying to squeeze everything into today's update. I want to keep each chapter clear and self-contained, just as we've been doing throughout the 8×8 Adventure. So stay tuned! The harvest has been documented. The whole-plant drying stage is part of the story. And the trimming chapter is still to come. 💜🌿✂️ ──────────────────────── ❤️ FINAL THOUGHTS — THE LITTLE FROSTY QUEEN DESERVES HER CROWN Purple Haze Pheno B. From seed to harvest. 💜❄️👑 She was the smaller sister. The more compact plant. The girl who took her time and developed at her own pace. But she was never just a smaller version of the Big Mama. She had her own structure, her own timeline, and her own beautiful expression. And throughout the later flowering stages, her frosty appearance became one of the features that made her stand out. Now we've reached harvest, and I'm happy we can document this moment properly. The growing chapter is complete. We've captured the harvest-day photographs. We've included a few images from the drying-rack stage. And we're preparing for the next report, where we'll focus on trimming and the rest of the post-harvest experience. This is why we keep separate diaries for individual phenotypes. Because every plant deserves to have her own story told properly. And this Little Frosty Queen has certainly given us one worth following. 💜❄️🌸 She didn't need to be the tallest. She didn't need to be the biggest. She simply needed to be herself. And that's exactly what she did. Keep shining, beautiful girl. Your harvest chapter is here, but your story isn't finished in these diaries just yet! 😂💜👑 ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us a platform to document these individual journeys and share them with the community.

The review is finally there. I structured it in a new way. 4 categories, all count equally for the final rating. Growth, buds, taste and high. That are the only categories that matter for me. It was a funny journey and I learned a lot. The nutrients from BioTabs are absolutely amazing an I am very glad that I can work with them in future grows. I had no issues when it comes to the nutrients and the resulting product is top notch. Was a very easy process too. I am a huge fan of dry amendments now and will continue with BioTabs. The yield of this strain or this particular pheno is out of this world. Because of the stretch I only was able to run the lights at 70 % which is approximately 70 W. In the VGrow with a grow area of 0.16 m². And I pulled exactly 100 g dry buds out of it. That's a wopping 142,9 g/W or 625 g/m². Insane. These Jet Fuel Gelato crosses from Compound are insane yielders, if you're looking for a lot of stank per grow, this is a legit breeding line for that. But be wary of stretch. For my next grow I chose a breeder that I have already covered. I am still in the search for real dessert terps because I want to build up my palate. For that, one needs to taste every kind of weed and since I am really intrigued by sweet, creamy and spicy smells as well as tastes, this is the logical next step. The new seed is already popped, which means the new diary will start soon! Thanks for hanging around and sharing this truly beautiful (would even say the very best) hobby. I cannot wait for the next grow season! See you soon 🌱💚

Heute ging der Grow zu Ende. Ich hätte wahrscheinlich noch eine Woche warten können, hatte aber keinen Bock mehr und will mein neues Autopot System zeitnah installieren. Die Pflanze sieht super aus, die meisten Sonnensegel sind schon im Laufe der letzten Wochen abgefallen. Hab Sie heute 2-3 Stunden nach "Sonnenaufgang" abgeschnitten, umgedreht und aufgehangen. Ziemlich stressfrei, wie der gesamte Grow. Bin gespannt wie viel ich ernten werde und in ca. 10 Tagen sollte es soweit sein. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit wird für die ersten 2-3 Tage auf 55% eingestellt, anschließend werde ich es schön langsam auf ~60% RLF lassen und hoffentlich in ziemlich genau 8 bzw. 9 Tagen beschneiden und einlagern können. Dann gibt es auch ein Update mit dem Gewicht. ________________________________________________________________________________________________ The grow ended today. I could probably have waited another week, but I didn't feel like it and wanted to install my new Autopot system as soon as possible. The plant looks great, most of the fan leaves have already fallen off over the last few weeks. I cut them off today 2-3 hours after “sunrise”, turned them over and hung them up. Pretty stress-free, like the whole grow. I'm curious to see how much I'll harvest and it should be ready in about 9 days. Humidity will be set to 55% for the first 2-3 days, then I'll let it go nice and slow to ~60% RH and hopefully be able to trim and store in pretty much 8 or 9 days. Then there will also be an update with the weight.

77 days, for some reason, the girl is growing without me, I see that she lacks water, I water her every other day, but she needs more, I will come back to her next week, good luck to everyone :)

Harvest + Cure complete ✅ Smells like tart, berry on the with later hints of creamy gas. Tastes like berry with an after taste of like gassy fruit cocktail. My grow issues definitely led to some less amazing bud this time around and embarrassing yield, but I’m really content how terpy it still is!

2 Girls 1 Cup week 8 is it?? Looks like GC is on week 4 still 🤣. Day 49- big defol on GC tonight, mild prune on the right side also. Few strategic plucks on WG to help share the light evenly. My fingers are sticky asf and STINK like lemon/lime and gas. Changed RES yesterday, modified week 3 GHE bloom medium feed. Breakdown as follows: 5 gal tap/RO 20mL calmag Micro - 26.5mL Grow - 26.5mL Bloom - 41mL RES totals after PH corrections - 1148 @ 5.63 ====================================================================================================================== Day 50- where to start.... fuck.. well, i was wondering if my TDS was accurate or not. never checked it against another meter until today... and lets just say its been OFF the whole damn time!! i tested it against two other meters. one cheapo from amazon, and one from a zero water pitcher. TDS reading from each in order from current>amazon>zerowater.. 930, 642, 616. checked online and they are all on the 500 scale. so i dialed the "current" meter back to 616 to match the brand new zero water meter. never really trusted the cheapo amazon one TBH.. went ahead and topped off with 1.5L and gave them a 1/1/2 mL shot of M/G/B to boost the RES numbers a bit. currently sitting at 662 @ 5.84. so i guess GHE calculations havent been anywhere near the ballpark like i thought. maybe they were using the same damn meter i have currently, set EXACTLY as far off as mine was from factory 🤣. IDKWTF happened there, but its a good thing i started light and worked up following their signs. even though the meter was off, it was still giving me information that was useable. should have left it where it was, but my OCD would haunt me until it was adjusted. plucked a few on WG tonight and left my fingers sticky and stinky. GC keeps stretching, refusing to hit full flower still.. Sorry Herbies, i know you all exaggerate the finish times... but come on now lol... theres no way this one would finish in the time they state online.. FastBuds Wedding Glue on the other hand... she may be short, but shes STOCKY. she'll just get fatter too. who knew i liked fat chicks?? ====================================================================================================================== Day 51- few plucks here and there on WG. have to be careful now because these leaves are what's going to last the next few weeks. Can't take too many, can't leave it closed up. Since I won't be able to flush, i may do a multi harvest on WG and give GC a lil more time to hurry TF up and do her thing. I hate waisting... anticipation is building for the end. Not only to see these girls come to a finish.. but to set up the new system "correctly". Using things learned in this experiment. ====================================================================================================================== Day 53- not much to report other than the typical random strategic plucks on WG and more abuse to GC. been adding a booster to the RES every other top off. Ends up being once a day. One top off calmag'd water, one calmag'd water with a 0/1/2mL (M/G/B) per L added. Gave em a .5mL bump of M today since I've only been boosting it with G & B for the last 2 days. *edit* my dumbass forgot to set timelapse interval from 3sec to 45sec and the vid is 1.8gb long.. going to just skip today's footage. ====================================================================================================================== Day 55- GC is trying to catch up from the looks of it. It's like 3 weeks behind schedule 🤣🤣. Was going to defol the shit out of it again, but may leave it for another day or two. Once it takes WG's sun, it's getting snipped again. Forgot to mention more GC abuse from yesterday, or the day before. Didnt take a pic so I'm leaving it up to my memory. kinda accidently, purposely, tripped and precisely stabbed the main with some pointy tweezers... about half way in, and may have accidently twisted a bit before and while pulling it out... oops.. what's a lil more stress on GC right?? Maybe I'll have to trip every so many days and see if it has a positive effect 🤣. Will try and snap a pic of GC main at some point. ====================================================================================================================== As always, thanks for stopping by and checking out my current grow experiment. Check back to see when I mess it up 🤣 check out the up to date timelapse from day 27 on @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZxJgAYve2s
