Canna Fever

Canna-Cheese (all-CBD parent) x Root Beer

zer0tolerance0

u/zer0tolerance0s Canna Fever brought bright orange zest to the cabin, with an even, tall frame carrying large flowers all the way down. In coco, topping and LST helped shape a plant that finished in the reported 80–89 day window at around 40–45 inches, with more than four ounces recorded. The grower singled out the dense flowers, aroma and frost throughout the plant despite light levels below 30 DLI in this setup, so the lower branches still had something to show for themselves. It was rated a novice-level run, with trichome production, trim ease and willingness to grow again all landing at 5/5. A cabin-in-the-woods visitor with orange zest in place of a knock at the door.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Coco

Lighting: Led

Container: 110oz

Nutes: Jack's nutrients

Training: Topping, lst

Cycle: 80-89 days

Height: 40-45 inches (~101-115cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Tall and even structured with large flowers down to bottom

Yield: 4oz+

Aroma: During grow: Orange zest.

Notes: Novice difficulty reported. Large, dense flowers and frost were observed throughout the plant at light levels below 30 DLI in this setup. Trichome production: 5/5; Trim ease: 5/5; Would grow again: 5/5.

Short Summary: An orange-zest specimen with even structure and dense, frosty flowers throughout in u/zer0tolerance0’s setup.

28 Haze Later

Apollo Haze x Root Beer

JBgrowing

u/JBgrowing’s 28 Haze Later brought a lively twist to the outbreak, trading an early sweaty-feet funk for sweet mango purée as flower progressed. She grew into a 51-inch Christmas tree with a 36-inch spread, carrying solid, dense flowers right down to the lower branches, with bright orange hairs standing out against light-green buds. After cure, ripe mango stayed up front with a traditional skunky-haze edge, and the exhale carried that raw, overripe fruit character into the flavour. JB found the run easy and the smoke alert and almost caffeinated, with a calm, focused headspace and a noticeable body buzz that still felt manageable. This particular deserted-London soundtrack came with mango on the exhale.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Living soil

Lighting: 300 watt vivosun

Container: 15 gal

Nutes: Buildasoil

Training: Natural

Cycle: 80-89 days

Height: 46-51 inches (~116-130cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Christmas tree

Yield: 213 Grams

Aroma: Sweaty funk early in flower changed to sweet mango purée. After cure, pungent mango and skunky haze remained, with overripe mango on the exhale.

Effects: JBgrowing described an alert, focused high with a noticeable but manageable body buzz.

Notes: Novice difficulty reported; JBgrowing found the run easy. Finished at 51 inches tall and 36 inches wide, with dense flowers even at the bottom. Trichome production: 5/5; Trim ease: 5/5; Would grow again: 5/5.

Short Summary: A large, easy grow with dense flowers throughout, ripe mango and skunky haze, and an alert, focused effect for JBgrowing.

AutoFlowerFluff

Fluff’s 28 Haze Later brought the kind of garlic-chem funk that could make an abandoned street feel a little more abandoned. She was a tall specimen, supercropped to contain a main stem the grower estimated would otherwise have reached around five feet, and finished with a heavy coat of frost and a reported six-ounce yield. The nose began herbal, closer to gentian root, before an ammonia-like chem character developed through flower and gave way to loud garlic funk after cure. Fluffer found plenty to enjoy in this haze cross, but the effects had a heavier side than the name might suggest, having sent them to bed twice despite also being described as sociable smoke. No rage virus required for this one to make her presence felt.

Grower Highlights

Medium: BioChar and Soil

Lighting: Spider Farmer G4500 (430 watt model)

Container: 3gallon self watering

Nutes: Dr Earth Flower Girl and Super Thrive 4-4-4

Training: Super cropped

Cycle: 70-79 days

Height: 40-45 inches (~101-115cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Massive plants, mine would have been 5ft tall at the main if I didn't super crop

Yield: 6oz

Aroma: During grow: Had a really herbal note during grow, along the lines of gentian root that started to develop into more of an ammonia chem funk mid to late flower. After harvest: GARLIC CHEM FUNK (4/4 IN CANNATROL STANDARD SETTINGS).

Effects: It's pretty deep for a haze cross, it's put me to bed twice. I imagine the less sativa driven root beers will be a HARD hitting stones. 28 Haze Later is more for seasoned stoners day time smoke, or a fun party smoke by the fire with your friends.

Notes: Intermediate difficulty reported; light nutrient demand. AutoFlowerFluff estimated the main would have reached around five feet without supercropping. Heavy effects included falling asleep twice. Trichome production: 5/5; Trim ease: 4/5; Would grow again: 3/5.

Short Summary: A tall, frosty plant with a garlic-chem finish and a haze experience that AutoFlowerFluff found unexpectedly heavy.

Dosidious

Do-si-delirium x Root Beer

SmokinTehHerbz

u/stl_ent's Dosidious showed two distinct faces behind the same door, both bringing dense flowers and a serious coat of frost. The Dosi-leaning phenotype stacked taller, extremely dense flowers along spiralling branches, while the Root Beer-leaning plant stayed bushier with broad fan leaves, less stretch and slightly less density. Across the pair, the profile moved from dark-soda vanilla on a stem rub to burnt-rubber flower aromas, with earthy mushroom and fresh, spicy garlic coming through in the dabs. The sweeter phenotype still carried plenty of GMO funk and left a distinct root-beer note hanging on the exhale, with reported dry yields of 381 and 350 grams making these substantial individual results. One jar crack and the nose was already halfway into the Further.

Grower Highlights

Seed To Harvest - Youtube

Medium: coco

Lighting: LED - Mammoth Mint 6

Container: 5 gallon

Nutes: Jack Nutrients

Training: Leaf Tuck, Trellis Net

Cycle: 80-89 days

Height: 28-33inches (~71-85cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Pheno 1: taller flower stacks, less bushy, moderate stretch and extremely dense spiralling flowers. Pheno 2: bushier, broad fan leaves, less stretch and slightly less dense flowers.

Yield: 381 & 350 grams dry

Aroma: During grow: Extremely dank, musky, earthy filled the grow space. Found the aroma hard to describe until after the cure. After harvest: Pheno 1: dark-soda vanilla on the stem rub, burnt-rubber flower aroma, and earthy mushroom with spicy garlic in dabs. Pheno 2: sweeter GMO funk with a lingering root-beer exhale.

Notes: Intermediate difficulty reported. Both phenotypes produced dense flowers, with a bushier Root Beer-leaning plant and taller flower stacks on the Dosi-leaning plant. Trichome production: 5/5; Trim ease: 4/5; Would grow again: 5/5.

Short Summary: Two dense, frosty phenotypes with different structures and a savoury spectrum of soda, rubber, mushroom and garlic flavours.

Nightmare on Fig Street

Guava Fig x Root Beer

Modkins

u/Modkins’ Nightmare on Fig Street was making its presence known well before lights out, filling the space with gas, skunk and the sort of dumpster funk that is hard to mistake for anything polite. Heavy leaf tucking spread the canopy evenly, leaving multiple leading colas and thick golf-ball flowers distributed from top to bottom. The flowers were mostly dense throughout, but it was the trichome coverage that really caught Modkins’ attention, earning a 5/5 alongside trim ease. This was recorded as an intermediate run with extra nutrient demand, and the combination of loud aroma and heavy frost gave the grower plenty to talk about. Freddy could have left the striped jumper at home; this one announced herself by smell.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Happy frog soil, COM seed starter , extra perlite

Lighting: 24/7 240W LED

Container: 2 gal

Nutes: Cronk nutrients

Training: Heavy leaf tucking

Cycle: 70-79 days

Height: 34-39 inches (~86-100cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Lots of main colas and dense , thick golf balls , mostly if not all dense buds from top to bottom , evenly spread out canopy from leaf tucking

Aroma: During grow: Very gassy , skunky, and funky overall smells like your in a dumpster and a stinky one.

Notes: Intermediate difficulty reported; extra nutrients were recorded. Modkins singled out the heavy trichome coverage and loud aroma. Trichome production: 5/5; Trim ease: 5/5; Would grow again: 5/5.

Short Summary: Dense flowers across an even canopy, standout frost and a loud gassy, skunky funk in Modkins’ report.

-----

Enduro

Enduro’s / u/ButterBoy42000 Nightmare on Fig Street brought a sharp, pungent funk that was already making itself known before lights out, with a GMO-like edge and tropical guava tucked into the background. She grew tall around a large main cola and long-reaching branches, finishing at 45 inches in 75 days with 150 grams recorded from a five-gallon fabric pot. Enduro found her fairly hands-off and easy, while the profile developed a creamy tropical side after cure that also came through on an unlit draw, like a familiar treat that stayed just out of reach. The smoke was exceptionally smooth in Enduro’s account, but the effects had plenty of weight behind them, landing heavily behind the eyes with a strong, stony feeling that earned an overall 5/5. A smooth entrance into dreamland, with a heavier presence waiting behind it.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Organic soil with Build a Soil amendments

Lighting: 700W HLG LED

Container: 5 gallon fabric pot

Nutes: Build a Soil

Training: Leaf tucking, defoliation and supercropping

Cycle: 75 days

Height: 45 inches

Plant Shape / Structure: Tall plant with a large main cola and long-reaching branches. Enduro described her as beautiful and noted substantial size potential.

Yield: 150g

Aroma: Sharp, pungent funk reminiscent of GMO, with guava, tropical skunk and a creamy background. Strongly pungent during the grow; after cure, the sharp aroma was joined by tropical cream. An unlit draw gave a creamy tropical flavour, and Enduro described the smoke as exceptionally smooth and flavourful.

Effects: Strong and stony, with a heavy feeling behind the eyes. Enduro described the Root Beer and Guava combination as a knockout.

Notes: Fairly hands-off and easy in this run, with a pleasant overall grow experience. Top-dressing was done by feel rather than a fixed schedule. Overall rating: 5/5.

Short Summary: A tall, easygoing grow for Enduro with pungent GMO-style funk, creamy tropical flavour, exceptionally smooth smoke and heavy, stony effects.

PsychO'z

MephistO'z x Root Beer

Indo

u/theindoshow’s PsychO'z had something sweeter than expected waiting behind the curtain, opening with fizzy sarsaparilla before cream soda became the dominant note in flower. She grew tall in a main-cola-led Christmas-tree shape, reaching the reported 52–57 inch range and producing 322 grams from a plant Indo found very easy to maintain. After cure, the soda character stayed put but became more creamy vanilla and sassafras, with a little spice and burnt rubber sitting deep in the background. The effects arrived quickly with a heavy stoned feeling that Indo could feel in the face, but still left a motivated, energised edge rather than an immediate appointment with the sofa. The Bates Motel had clearly added cream soda to the room-service menu.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Coco

Lighting: LED 645w

Container: 3.9 gallon plastic

Nutes: Athena Blended

Training: Pinch & roll

Cycle: 80-89 days

Height: 52-57 inches (~131-145cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Main cola dominant, Christmas tree

Yield: 322 grams

Aroma: During grow: During the grow the smells had a nice sarsaparilla, fizzy soda. In flower the plant developed a more dominant sweet/creamy smell reminiscent of a cream soda with a bit of that Oz. After harvest: The cream soda scent remained changing the sarsaparilla to a Sassafras. Sweet creamy vanilla like notes but with a slight slice and notes of burnt rubber deep in the back end.

Effects: Great effects that hit rather quickly. Indica style high but without the couch lock. More sativa leaning in the sense that there is a motivated/energized feeling while still carrying that heavy stoned effect. This is one you can feel in your face

Notes: Novice difficulty reported; Indo found the plant easy to maintain through excessive heat and humidity. Indo’s impression of mould resistance comes from this run, rather than a demonstrated resistance trait. Trichome production: 4/5; Trim ease: 2/5; Would grow again: 5/5.

Short Summary: A tall, easygoing specimen with cream-soda character and a quick, weighty high that Indo found energising rather than couch-locking.

-----

11th_Division_Grows

u/11th_Division_Grows's PsychO'z was quietly building her own character behind the curtain, carrying a musky garlic-crème aroma with a savoury side already easy to pick out. At a reported 34–39 inches she was smaller than some other examples, but the colas were stacking nicely and the flowers were swelling into a pleasing density. This plant was topped at the fifth node in a two-gallon pot, with regular nutrient consumption and intermediate difficulty recorded for the run. The report is an in-progress look at the plant, with the grower’s strongest positives centred on the cola formation, dense flowers and trichome production rated 4/5. Mother might have had a few questions about that garlic-crème smell drifting downstairs.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Soil - HP Promix

Lighting: LED

Container: 2gal

Nutes: House&Garden

Training: Topped @ 5th node

Cycle selected: 80-89 days

Height: 34-39 inches (~86-100cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Colas stack really nice - my plant did not get huge like others but the buds swelled up to a really nice density.

Aroma: During grow: Musky garlic-crème funk.

Notes: Intermediate difficulty reported. In-progress observations; the grower noted nicely stacked colas and swelling, dense flowers despite a smaller plant than some other examples. Trichome production: 4/5; Trim ease: 4/5; Would grow again: 3/5.

Short Summary: An in-progress specimen with stacked, swelling flowers and a musky garlic-crème aroma.

SAW berry

(Strawberry Nuggets x HubbleBubbleHaze) x Root Beer

Indo

u/theindoshow’s SAW berry put a strawberry-sweet twist on the trap, starting creamy and candy-like before chem and bubblegum worked their way into the mix later in flower. She grew into a tall, bushy Christmas tree with a clear main cola and very large, dense flowers, finishing in the reported 80–89 day window with 329 grams recorded. The cured aroma kept the strawberry candy, chem and bubblegum together, while the flavour leaned a little creamier and stayed true to the nose. Indo found the run easy, and the smoke brought a quick body high with hazy, creative effects that could send the mind wandering off into its own little plot. Jigsaw’s puzzle came with strawberry sweets and bubblegum hidden among the pieces.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Coco

Lighting: LED

Container: 3.9 gallon plastic

Nutes: Athena Blended

Training: Pinch & Roll

Cycle: 80-89 days

Height: 46-51 inches (~116-130cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Main cola, Christmas tree, bushy

Yield: 329 grams

Aroma: During grow: Creamy candy strawberry that later in flower changed to a chem/candy strawberry with hints of bubblegum. After harvest: Smells - Chem, strawberry candy, bubblegum. Flavors same but a bit more creamy.

Effects: The smoke gives good body high that comes across quickly while the haze effects play to the mind. Creative smoke that can get you lost in thought.

Notes: Novice difficulty reported; Indo found the run easy. Large, dense buds stood out alongside the strawberry, chem and bubblegum profile. Trichome production: 4/5; Trim ease: 3/5; Would grow again: 5/5.

Short Summary: A large, straightforward grow with dense flowers, creamy strawberry candy and chem, plus a quick body high and wandering haze effects.

Root Beer Tester Reports Volume 1

SilentJ17

SilentJ17’s Root Beer had clearly been spending some overtime in the mountain lab, with two big, frosty phenotypes that took quite different shapes. The taller girl pushed past 60 inches before supercropping and wore smaller flowers so thickly coated they looked almost white, while her shorter sister built much larger, super-dense buds. The flower opened with sarsaparilla, pine and chocolate, then moved into earthy root beer, pepper and medicinal herbs, while the rosin put the savoury GMO side front and centre with garlic, onion and a little sweetness around the edges. Both hit heavily for SilentJ17, bringing deep head-and-body relaxation, appetite and sleepiness, with some short-term memory disruption adding to that thoroughly stoned feeling.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Coast of Maine seed starter

Lighting: 2 Spider farmer se5000s with UV, IR and deep red supplemental lighting and vivosun under canopy lighting

Container: Gorilla grow tent 5 gal fabric pots on vivosun wick bases

Nutes: Dr earth homegrown top dressed during veg and dr earth flower girl top dressed during flower. Recharge tea top watered weekly and ro water in the bases with rotations of just water and water with GH silica and cal mag added

Training: Leaf tucking, late defoliation and super cropping on one main cola to keep out of the lights

Cycle: 70-79 days

Height: 58+ inches (~146cm+)

Plant Shape / Structure: Pheno 1 exceeded 60 inches before supercropping to 58 inches; smaller, heavily frosted buds. Pheno 2 measured 41 inches tall x 29 inches wide, with larger, very dense flowers.

Yield: Pheno 1 was the hash plant, it came in at 466.83 grams of fresh frozen, then washed for a total of 22.48 grams of bubble hash. %4.82 return. Pheno 2 was dried and cured for flower and yielded 132.41 grams.

Aroma: During grow: Musty, dank funk with sweet cream, developing herbal sarsaparilla as flowers swelled. After harvest: Flower: sarsaparilla, pine, pepper, chocolate, earthy root beer, medicinal herbs and vanilla. Rosin: savoury-sour GMO funk, onion, garlic, pepper and spice under light sweetness.

Effects: Heavy head and body effects, deep relaxation, sleepiness and appetite; some short-term memory disruption. SilentJ17 also reported relief of aching muscles.

Notes: Novice difficulty reported. Extra nutrients were recorded in this run. The tallest plant was supercropped to clear the lights. SilentJ17 valued both flower and hash results. Trichome production: 5/5; Trim ease: 5/5; Would grow again: 5/5.

Short Summary: Two distinct structures delivered frosty flower and hash, with herbal root beer, savoury GMO funk and heavy effects in SilentJ17’s experience.

Indo

Indo’s Root Beer started out like a familiar soda-shop order, then let the monster out of the jar after harvest. Heavy sarsaparilla became unmistakable root beer in early flower, picked up burnt rubber near the finish, and finally settled into a much louder GMO funk with the herbal sweetness tucked behind it; the flavour carried that same savoury GMO character with hints of sarsaparilla. She built a main-cola-dominant frame with dense flowers and upright side branches that needed spreading, but Indo otherwise found the grow extremely easy and described her as very resilient in this run. The smoke delivered a powerful body high and a deeply stoney feeling with plenty of staying power, putting Root Beer firmly among Indo’s favourites. Indo called this the favourite drop of the last couple of years.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Coco

Lighting: LED

Container: 3.9 gallon plastic

Nutes: Athena Blended

Training: Pinch & roll

Cycle: 80-89 days

Height: 40-45 inches (~101-115cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Main cola dominant

Yield: 319 grams

Aroma: During grow: The plant gave some heavy sarsaparilla early on and early flower gave a definitive root beer smell. That root beer smell carried well into flower but late in flower near chop was giving burnt rubber. After chopping the rubber immediately faded, the sarsaparilla did as well but not completely. Smells leaned heavy into GMO. After chopping the GMO smacks you in the face and you have to look for those backend smells. After harvest: GMO, sarsaparilla. Flavour carries GMO with hints of sarsaparilla.

Effects: The smoke is top notch. Super stoney feeling backed with a powerful body high. The high has some legs too so you don’t have to light joint after joint

Notes: Novice difficulty reported; Indo found the run very easy. Upright side branches needed spacing. Indo described strong resilience in this run. Trichome production: 4/5; Trim ease: 5/5; Would grow again: 5/5. Indo called this the favourite drop of the last couple of years and a contender for a personal favourite strain.

Short Summary: A personal standout for Indo, pairing an easy grow and dense flowers with GMO-sarsaparilla flavour and a strong, lasting body high.

-----

Modkins

u/Modkins’ Root Beer was putting on her late-flower costume, with a pink-purple fade starting to show through a strong coat of frost. Left untrained, she built a Christmas-tree frame around a dominant main cola, with several prominent branches and flowers that were looking tight and dense at the time of the report. The aroma changed with the scene, starting gassy before turning sweeter and spicier later in flower, with a high aroma-strength rating to match. Modkins recorded extra nutrient demand and intermediate difficulty, but the colour and trichome coverage were the real talking points in these in-progress observations, with frost earning a 5/5.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Happy frog soil, COM seed starter , extra perlite

Lighting: 24/7 240W LED

Container: 2 gal

Nutes: Cronk nutrients

Training: Nothing

Cycle: 80-89 days

Height: 40-45 inches (~101-115cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Main cola dominant , built like Christmas tree, multiple main colas , dense tight flowers from what I can tell so far Pink-purple colour developed through the fade.

Aroma: During grow: Gassy earlier on and late in flower more sweet and spicy.

Notes: Intermediate difficulty reported; extra nutrients were recorded. These are in-progress observations. Trichome production: 5/5; Trim ease: 4/5; Would grow again: 5/5.

Short Summary: An in-progress Root Beer with pink-purple colour, strong frost and an aroma moving from gas towards sweetness and spice.

zer0tolerance0

Zer0 kept this Root Beer monster in a bonsai-sized frame, but the flowers still came through thick, dense and heavily frosted from top to bottom. In a 25-ounce container with extensive LST, the reported mother and clones carried plenty of aroma, and even the shaded flowers stayed large and frosty. Chemmy rubber dominated the grow and remained the main character after cure, gaining a little sweetness and depth without losing that sharp identity. The 3/5 grow-again score came down to taste rather than plant performance: Zer0 mainly vapes and prefers fruitier profiles, while still describing this as a great plant that handled a lot of training well.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Coco

Lighting: Led

Container: 25oz

Nutes: Jack's nutrients

Training: Lst, bonsai format

Cycle: 90-99 days

Height: 22-27inches (~56-70cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Large flowers top to bottom

Aroma: During grow: Chemmy Rubber. After harvest: A little more sweet and developed, but still primarily chemmy rubber.

Notes: Novice difficulty reported. Mother and clones produced dense, frosty flowers, including shaded flowers. The 3/5 grow-again score reflects a preference for fruity profiles, rather than dissatisfaction with performance. Trichome production: 5/5; Trim ease: 5/5; Would grow again: 3/5.

Short Summary: Dense, frosty flowers and a persistent chemmy-rubber profile; u/zer0tolerance0’s lower repeat score reflected personal flavour preference.

-----

Terpenetix

Terps’s Root Beer kept one foot in the soda shop and the other in the mountain lab, pairing herbal sarsaparilla with a sharp chemical-cleaner edge. That unusual combination stayed consistent through the grow and after cure, giving this specimen a clear identity without a long list of competing flavours. In coco she grew tall and bushy, finished in the reported 80–89 day window at around 40–45 inches, and carried plenty of frost on a plant Terp found easy to grow. The reported nine-ounce yield rounded out a straightforward run, while the effects leaned into body relaxation without tipping into sedation for Terpenetix.

Grower Highlights

Medium: Coco

Lighting: LED

Container: 2.2g

Nutes: Athena Blended

Training: LST

Cycle: 80-89 days

Height: 40-45 inches (~101-115cm)

Plant Shape / Structure: Tall, bushy

Yield: 9oz

Aroma: During grow: Sarsaparilla, Chemical Cleaner. After harvest: Sarsaparilla, Chem Cleaner.

Effects: Indica leaning effects, relaxing but not sedative

Notes: Novice difficulty reported; Terpenetix found the grow easy. Trichome production: 4/5; Trim ease: 3/5; Would grow again: 5/5.

Short Summary: A tall, easy grow for u/Terpenetix with persistent sarsaparilla and chem-cleaner aromas and relaxation without sedation.

Question Box Size

Hello, I’m planning to start an autoflower grow soon.
I have various Mephisto strains.
Now for my question:
I have a 150x150 cm tent and a 120x120 cm tent. I also have an AutoPot system with 15L pots.
How many autoflowers would you put in each tent?
Do you have any experience with autoflowers and AutoPots? I’m planning to use BioTabs—how would you go about fertilizing in this setup? Unfortunately, I only have experience with feminized (photoperiod) seeds. And what about training techniques? Should I completely ignore them when it comes to cars, or are there any that you absolutely recommend?
Thanks

Harvest PolarBear OG Loose Trim and Cure Time

After getting her bucked down yesterday I decided to do one overnight in a paper grocery bag. I gave all of the flowers a loose Rockstar haircut and into the sealed Grove bag for 30 or so days.

Ive never sealed and left the grove bags, normally I am a religious Mason jar burping purist.

The aroma now is like a candy concord grape, gassy skunk crossover with some old dude breath. When I was trimming it up it was almost nauseating in a great way.

This plant started to flower super early but just kept stretching and growing while stacking buds. She was awesome to grow.

Running Mephisto for the first time in a while, and the first time it in RDWC - loving the experience so far!

It's interesting to see the different expressions in the strain with all 4 plants theoretically growing in identical conditions!

The biggest challenge has been managing the sheer amount of fan leaves being produced (and the moisture that comes from them). I've gotten the traditional branching structure in soil before, but there's something about growing hydroponically that just makes them want to absolutely bush out? Fingers crossed it turns into a solid harvest!

Advice/Help Top watering question

Thumbnail
gallery
6 Upvotes

This is turning me into a nervous wreck! A few weeks back when I installed the trellis net on this apple of eden I didn't realize it shifted the pot off the rear two wicks. I was swapping the reservoir once a week and a week later I realized the pot was super light and that's when I discovered the issue. After pouring through a couple of liters of feed I thought all was well.

Fast forward a couple of weeks and the pot was getting light again. The roots are growing through the base into the reservoir, crowding the wicks. I decided to just take the wicks out and top water the rest of the way through flower starting a few days ago. Now I'm terrified of her drying back too much or overwatering and ruining these last few weeks!

I've been waiting until the pot feels, not sure how to explain it, but like the bottom is still heavy but the top hollow? I water until water runs through the bottom of the pot when I lift it, let it drain for a bit, then clean out the reservoir.

Am I doing this right? She is in mother earth 70/30 perlite, and my current understanding based on the reading I've done is if it ever dries out too much the water will just pool off the top and soak the sides and not run through? Help set my mind at ease! Thanks in advance guys

Grow-Journal Mango Smile ~ Day 73

Seems to be almost finished.
Tent is 4x4 so she is indeed pretty big with a nice open structure.
She is in an 8 gallon pot with Biobizz Lightmix with added perlite and Biotabs and Biobizz Bio Bloom as fertilizer.
The smell is very strong and simply amazing. Like intense Tropical fruit.

This is already my second Mango Smile and the Legendary Status is definitely justified. Very consistent structure and with an amazing flower to leaf ratio.
The only problem is that for the second time the fade started too early and I couldn’t really stop it but she still turned out great like the last time.

I already tested a couple smaller wet buds in my volcano and the effect is already very strong with a nice euphoric and long lasting sativa high. Exactly what I want. But in my opinion it can also really fuck with with your mind, especially in higher doses, just like Amnesia Haze. But I still think it is a very nice strain for social and fun settings and also for gaming.
(Please try Star Wars Galactic Racer! It is so much fun playing it high. Scrib Doon! )

If there was an award for the friendliest larger grow sub on Reddit, I feel like it would have to be this one.

I'm on at least a dozen different cannabis grow subs here. This one is consistently the friendliest and most wholesome of the lot. Maybe it's just well moderated. Or maybe it's just proof that those with an appreciation for great weed and puns are just more fun in general to be around. Either way, the lot of you are pretty rad individuals and I'm proud to be a MephHead. 🫡💚🙌

Question Whats your preference, the F5 strains that lead a drop or the random F1/F2 crosses that come out with each new strain?

Just curious. Seems like the F5 is the safe bet, with the F1/2 being the wild cards.

Testers TOKETAL RECALL Harvest Day!

🗓️ Today's harvest is Toketal Recall from Mephisto Genetics! This is an F1 Limited Series cross of Platinum Stomper, and Beary Berry Punch.

I did an entire YouTube series for this grow. Check it out here. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCjWnKXPDJmo&si=rmiVNynxLc7KH66_

👃🐽📓 This phenotype leaned more into Beary Berry Punch than the Platinum Stomper. I'm getting a lot of tart fruit aroma, almost like Kool-Aid powder. On a weirder note, there's like an undertone of cheese, which is really interesting.

🌍❓Another run in all Coast of Maine seed starter. I decided to do my top dressings a little bit differently for this grow. (see SOIL BREW for details)

🌱➡️🌿 Total time from sprout was 71 days. Not a ton of amber, but the new clusters of white hairs are telling me that if I leave her she's just gonna start looking weird. Everything is cloudy anyway so that's right where I love it.

🤸🛠️ I did a lot of LST on this plant. If you watch the playlist you can catch all of it.

📏⚖️ She's pretty short, but given the amount of training I'm not surprised she only made it to 23 inches tall. For yield, I'm going to guess 3-4 oz. (actual yield will go here on my website)

💡⏲️ Lights are Electric Sky ES300s, and AC Infinity EVO 6

Light Cycle was mostly 24/0

💦 Water Only (I use Biobizz Root Juice in the beginning, and some Recharge throughout the grow)

The pH of my well water comes out a little low, so every few waterings I raise it a little bit.

If you're still reading at this point, please take a minute to check out my website 😉 https://www.farmerhatbeard.com/

Happy Growing everyone! 💚

Growing fast this one... Looks like it'll finish in the 75-85 day range I'm sure! Did more targeted defoliation. Super easy to grow so far. Love growing the OG stuff from Mephisto. I can tell by stem and trich smell that it will be funky/chemy/diesel like.

Next pics will be in 15 days or so!

Happy growing everyone!
