Serious Seeds Chronic 1000W SOG DWC

[macnasty]

weight: 73 grams dried, or about 2 1/4 ounces. if i did it again though i could imagine easily getting double this weight with plants all under 16 inches. so that's 4 1/2 ounces in a 24" x 12" space, which is impressive yield.

taste: this isn't really fair since the plants were over fed. i think it's negatively affected the taste. it's tasteless lol. 5/10

smell: again, not very good. 5/10

strength: 7/10

From what's available on the world wide web of misinformation i was expecting a harsh smoke. it wasn't harsh AT ALL, and considering they were over fed and could be much smoother, this was a big surprise. the smoke is smooth and i don't cough at all when inhaling. the phenotype i got shows obvious signs of its sativa influences; it's not a couch lock buzz at all. i let these puppies flower for almost 13 weeks too, but the trichomes simply wouldnt turn amber. the high begins with a healthy mix of head/body rush, but gradually abandons the body buzz in favour of a continual head high. i find myself eagerly cleaning up after smoking this stuff, breakin dance moves and engaging in excited but not nervous conversation. i really do like the high, especially because most of the kush and other bud that is available in my area is designed to blast a shotgun to your face and leave you paralyzed on the couch - not my idea of a good buzz all the time. it was a pleasant change. the buds as you can see are big and fluffy and orange/brown in colour. it breaks up exactly how it looks, no surprises here. so aside from the sub par taste and smell, it's a good smoke. growing organically and not burning the plants will probably increase both these qualities in a big way.

next on the menu: Barney's Farm Violator Kush...stay tuned.

Hey truepunk glad to see youre still around. i'd suggest going fairly light on the nutes, it's not a heavy eater. using Advance Nutrients and with plants the size i was growing i'd aim for an EC of 1.3 at week 3+. ya the coco is lookin good. just started flushing her a few days ago, i'll take a pic of her before i chop her down soon. Unfortunately the yield is substantially less using coco and the House and Garden fertilizer, but the quality appears to be better so it's a reasonable trade off. That being said had I not stressed them out i bet they would taste and smell much better even with AN. Last thing, don't wait for the trichomes to go amber. she won't increase in size after week 10 and those trichomes won't change colour, so off with her head! at least that was my experience. well i'm off, thanks for stopping by. peace

here are some pics of the coco plant just before i chopped her down and after i trimmed her. i'll take some pics of some dried nugs soon and post them. hopefully they look better than her fluffier sisters. i'm much happier with the overall look of the coco plant though. no signs of stress she's beautiful, although i realize i should have flushed her a bit longer (only did 5 days).

Congrats on an awesome grow and a nice looking harvest

she dried to 30 grams. so for anyone wondering, that picture of a clone i took earlier in this thread will give you a plant this size. this plant was about 3 feet away from the light though. she finished about 18 inches tall.
