Lambsbread Grow Notes
While I had a lot of fun doing this grow and I did learn quite a bit I still came up with some less than expected results. Oh well, live and learn. Final counts for the girls were, #1 22.3 grams, #2 23.7 grams, and #3 21.1 grams. Anybody wanting to learn from my mistakes then be sure to.....
1. Veg the appropriate amount of time. I was in a hurry thinking I had to get the girls to finish before the annual inspections were to happen (I live in an apartment complex). Turns out they happened before they were finished and I managed to keep the girls out of sight. I would also like to add that I'm a registered patient and 100% legal but I would prefer to avoid questions and BS whenever possible.

2. On a similar note above don't underestimate the correct pot size. I stayed with the 3 gallons when I should have gone to 5 gallons. I guess when in doubt pot up, especially with organic soil.

3. Don't get too crazy with seaweed extract. I goofed up and gave them an ACT with the recommended dosage and then next watering gave them the same recommended dosage. So they got 3 tablespoons full in two consecutive waterings. It is my belief that all the extra hormones in the seaweed given too soon together stressed the plants and hermed them out. I checked and do not have any light leaks and all the plants hermed at the same time. I believe that if it was indeed a light leak that caused the herming it would have only affected one plant at a time, the one with the leak hitting it, not all three at the same time.

4. If you're buying clones don't pick your plant by the leaf pattern. I was aiming for a more indica dominant plant and they didn't have any info on the lambsbread strain yet as it was a new one they just got. Turns out it was a skunk x ruderalis cross from the info they later had.

5. Before the chop I let them sit in darkness for 36 hours. They came down on day 69. I don't think this hurt anything and I don't know what else it helped either. I can say though that after only being dry for a week the smoke is incredibly smooth with no harshness or expansion to speak of. The taste is not there at all which is disappointing but hopefully that is something that will come along with the cure. At least the smell is there and they don't have that homegrown hay smell which is a nice improvement over anything I have done in the past. Also, I had to start running clones before I could properly dry the bud so hung the bud in paper bags with the top folded over itself to let them dry out as slow as possible. I did this for 4 or 5 days per plant in a bag. This is not ideal and would certainly not recommend this to anyone who is not in an extremely dry climate. The buds had stems that would snap at this point but the buds are extremely delicate and crumble very easily. They are now in mason jars where I burp them once a day although I feel like I let them dry out way too much and this is kind of pointless now.

6. I wouldn't monocrop again. My train of thought was that I'm still learning quite a bit about crowing cannabis and if I got all the same kind of plant then if a problem cropped up it would be easier to handle it as they all respond the same way and have the same needs/requirements. Now I see that if the strain isn't quite what you were looking for then you are stuck with all of the same kind of flavor. If I have a choice then I will not do this again. Just like Jay Kush says, "Diversity is the key to human ignorance". On this note my round 2 couldn't be more opposite, more to come on that later though.

Nice thorough report and really nice for your first time..geez. Unfortunate that the genetics were not what they were supposed to be. Imo, the best thing about beans is the vigor and originality when you do find something dank. I've got some nice cuts but have decided that every grow of mine will include at least two new fems started from seed. This run its Thai lights and Lifesaver..
