So I pulled the rest of the Blue Dreams last night. They are nice tight buds as always! The shuga has all been pulled, dried and been curing for about 2 weeks. I didn't really get the yeild I was hoping for, but it smokes good so I'm happy about that. :jointsmile:

This was a whole new setup for me and I learned alot on the way. I learned that working with coco, you better be prepared to learn about ph adjusting (something I hadn't paid too much attention to in the past). I got the ph pen about 4 weeks into flowering and could see a difference, so I'm hoping this next round I will avoid those problems.

Also, I'm working with a SOG type setup, meaning more plants at smaller heights. I was hesitant to cut too much off before flowering, and now feel like I could have been more aggressive in order to work on the "one big cola" method. I will definately clean up the bottoms more next time so I wont have so many small buds.

I do feel like the LED has a lot of positive benefits. Not stressing over temps has been HUGE for me. And my electricity bill is back to normal. I was working will all new lights, medium, nutes and environment. I get an idea and I just go for it! I'm still learning and working with different techniques trying to find the right one for my situation.

I will be pulling the final 2 strawberry kushes in a few days. They are long and lanky, the buds aren't very dense so I'm not sure about yeild on those. I should be starting a new grow in about a week or two. I'm planning on working with mostly indicas (since they are my favorite and they take the least amount of time to harvest). Also, I think I will do a 50/50 soil/coco mix this time. That way if there are ph issues, it won't be so devastating since the soil has some good stuff already added.

Anyways....just wanted to give you guys a quick update. I will try to get some pics soon! If you have any questions....ask away! :jointsmile:
