SSSC Chronic gets Creepy

[Chronic_passion]

So today's a magical day...
Today marks the start of the California Lightworks Solar System UVB lights being turned on. I've started with a schedule of 30 minutes in the middle of the main light schedule as recommended in the manual.
Each day over the next four days I'll add another 30 minutes until they're on for four periods of 30 minutes every day. Let's see what these badboys can do...

Day #56 end of week 8
Where has the time gone?
Life in the tent is pretty stable. Although since turning on the UVB light on Wednesday I've seen an increase in RH at the periods its currently set to. Hopefully the girls will adjust quickly or I may have to reduce it right back to 30 mins per day.

Our little Auto Creeper is noticeably attacking on the weight and trichs. Can't wait to get home and give her a good sniff

Day #63 end of week 9 already!
Things are looking spectacular in the tent.
She's not as big as I thought she'd get but boy is she piling on the weight! You can see how PHAT her buds are getting.
The yellowing of the leaves also shows me she doesn't have long left. I'm just praying she'll hold out another 12 days or so until I get back from work.
I'm really impressed the way she's grown despite my troubles at the start.
Anyway, less talk more porn...

Day #70 end of week 10...
What's up grow gals and guys.
I'm blessed but cursed at the same time. Blessed because Auto Creeper has fattened up to a deliciously PHAT specimen but cursed at the same time, because my work trip has been extended a few days. I hope she holds out long enough for me to get home next week without over cooking. I think I should be fine but it's always a concern watching from an IP cam from a different country.
Temps have been a bit high this week in the UK so humidity has also been a touch high but it seems to be keeping inline with VPD so I'm not concerned.
Can't wait to get home and smell her dankness.

Day #77 end of week 11

So here we are... @Trichome farmer @TheMongol
final pic, chop day, time for drying and curing.

Overall she was a pleasure to grow, produced really dense fat buds and smells deliciously fruity, hazy and a tiny bit sour.
I chopped her down today with about 25% amber tricks and placed her in a brown paper bag after running the buds through the spinpro. Unfortunately due to my fan failing 2 weeks ago she got some dreaded bud rot so had to throw about 50% in the bin.
Other than the rot, I'm really happy with the results and will definitely grow her again.
Let's see how she smokes in a couple of weeks time

AC's been drying out for a week now so I weighed her up and put her in a mason jar with a Boveda to cure. Crispy dry weight... 32g. Considering I had to throw over half the plant away due to rot I'm quite happy with that.
I tried a little last night and she has a very light flavour. Nothing heavy like a cheese. Subtle, with a light citrus tang. Effects were as I expected... slow start with an all head high developing into a more upper body relaxation. She'll kick your ass the more you smoke. For me she's a definite builder. Didn't really taper off too much, so the more I had the heavier she got.

Considering it was my first time growing with the added UVB, I couldn't really tell if they helped or not? The buds were solid and terpenes were fruity but I'll only be able to see the difference after the next time I grow her (and I definitely will be... one day).

All round SSSC have given some stellar genetics which all growers would be proud to have in their space. Thumbs up guys, and thank you for the opportunity.
