What would be three things you learned from your last grow. I learned many more but these were the top three....


1. When tossing containers of ladybugs on the plant, don't throw the wood chips they come with. I found little wood chips in the buds.

2. Don't use chicken wire, use nylon netting or fishing line 200 lb test will hold many things in place.

3. Start early in the season.

1 - peony cages are my new favorite training device for 15 gal pots (they’re like shorter, wider, more stout tomato cages).

2 - if you’re plants are happy with their compost/casting tea regiment, don’t get lazy and stop making tea in the last few weeks, because they’ll get mad at you.

3 - don’t give away any of your moms to friends in a rush to help them start out, expecting them to take backup cuts for you later on. They’ll most likely fuck it up and you’ll lose the plant.

2. I needed a better light to fully cover my tent, so i made the upgrade.

1. Don't follow the guidelines for the LED's distance. Learn what your plant likes and go from there.

2. Don't fertilize every day.

3. Rotate your pots daily to allow light and air to hit all the plant and help to reduce any mold chances.

Not necessarily learned on the last grow, but I keep learning it:
1. Wait to harvest, and then wait some more to produce denser, tastier buds.
2. Be patient. Add weeks to the breeders advertised times.
3. Surplus helps tremendously in waiting for the current crop to come in. Make sure to have a head stash so you’re not compelled to chop early.

1. Stop flowering in 3gals , some of these thin leaf ones need way too much attention.
2. Journal and mark the calendar, journal and mark the calendar, journal and mark the calendar (for me I can work hard all day long, a few minutes of paper work wipes me out)
3. This run I poked cotton rope through the bottom of a 10gal fabric pot to wick/bottom feed. Seems to work well so I plan to make a couple more except use oil pans as a base to prevent light from reaching the water.

Ive learned
1. LST and keeping a level canopy works with helping yield -- more kolas are the main colas
2. Septoria looks like a CalMag deficiency, until you realise it spreads from leaf to leaf- just have to follow the brown spots and you will see where the damn fungus began, take off those leaves and use fungicide.
3. 14 days dry gives a really tasty smoke full of terps

-Thrips are dirty bastards that not only stunt your plants but also spread disease to them.
-when adding an additional light source to your room triple check all timers and visually confirm it goes on and off when it’s supposed to.
-always have a plan B ready to go whenever possible.. apply this to everything

I tried to have more walkable floor space by using 4 canes for support per pot and tying the branches to them.
yield loss is considerable vs fully netted

After another run through the last of the fried ice cream beans…… I’ve realised the first cut I selected over 3 years ago was the best so I needent have bothered

I’m never setting another room up without automatic watering

i need to stick to the set days for trimming and defoliation (days I set myself then put off for stupid reasons)
