Hoooozit guys.
Thought I would share some final thoughts on my last grow. All the nugs that were exposed to direct light came out extremely dense and hard. Very happy with the outcome. I did however realize that I need to clean up even more. I came out with alot of fluff aswell. Have never experienced this kind of fluff. Underdeveloped nugs that look like leaves with trichome on it and that is it. So we learn.
Drying was abit difficult with space. Did not expect so much but we managed to get them hanging with an average humidity just shy of 60%. We had big rains the first few days of harvest but I was not able to stretch the harvest longer than 10 days. Still came out very nice.
The following are the numbers I got off the plants. I harvested each set of 4 plants under each light seperately to try get a better understanding of the two different lights and what product I get from it. I will name them "DIY" for the light I buildt and "KING" for the bought kingbrite light.
DIY
Prime Nugs: 312.7g
Fluff: 353g
Trim: 326g
KING
Prime Nugs: 437.4g
Fluff: 268.2g
Trim: 331g
So as you can see from the numbers there is actually a huge difference between the lights in producing dense nugs. I have a feeling the kingbrite having red diodes is what makes the difference. I might actually buy a couple of Bloom booster lights from Kingbrite to supplement my DIY light. Will see. Through the weighing I just learnt what kind of cleaning up I am going to do in the future. Overall I am still happy and having 750g of proper prime nugs. Both batches were also trimmed with a trim bag and was also interesting to see what the bag dig with the fluff. I am defenitely aiming to get 1000g in the next harvest because getting 1g per watt would be very good with these LED lights. I would be over the moon with 1000g. (Just before anyone thinks I smoke kilos of weed, this gets shared between 3 people that are all heavy smokers ).
Over all I am very happy with the harvest and how it came out. I give it a 10/10 for bag appeal. The flavour is nice and fruity, not a specific kind of fruit but like a bowl of fruit. In the flowering stages it reminded me of the smell when you walk into the smoothy section of a fruit shop. I love it. I didn't use a carbon filter this time simply because it was not the over powering smell I would get from other stanky strains. I enjoyed this strain so much that my next grow will be half of it and the other half Cheese donated by @John Stonedwell. Super excited for that grow. Will just add it to this diary. Unfortunately there might be a mistake that was made in the transplanting when I was not available and I think we might have the Cheese and Mango mixed under the scrog. Not a problem though. Will still count seperately.
Thanks for watching and hope you enjoyed. Here is some nug porn.
