Caramella grow

[getafix]

Hi there

This is not a grow diary per se, but a quick story. I planted a few seeds in Jan this year. I moved around alot and could not get a grow room set-up until end-of-June. The poor plants had to endure the JHB winter. One Caramella plant survived and was VERT small when I put her in the grow room (about 10cm high, but many nodes). She was a real fighter!

I then started 24 hour 250W HPS cycle, but the ventelation was up to shite. Too much heat and no circulation or fan.

Well, I started flowering beginning of Sep and harvested this weekend. Not bad for such a disastrous grow.

Currently the produce is curing and I'll keep you updated....

Thanks Milde

The had to withstand a winter in JHB outside until mid June. By that time she was 6 months old. I sowed 6 seeds when I arrived here in Nov, but could not keep the plants at my place due to not having my own place. When I finally moved into my own house only the one plant was left and she was only 10-15cm tall with loads of nodes.

She was then under an unventilated room under a 250W HPS. Big mistake not having a fan blowing over her. I did for the last 2 months before harvesting and then she flourished. You live and learn. The problems with my relationship did not help, as she did not approve of my 'habits'.

The smoke turned out well after a 4 week cure, but the yield was low at about 20g dry material.
