You had a plan before the grow, and from what I saw, you executed the plan as you wanted...in my book, that is what good growers do. Genetics, as you can now see, do play a large role in overall ease of grow and end product to some point, but most of that is on the grower to duplicate. Well done, don't sell yourself short, and at the same time, there are always going to be variables from time to time that can throw grows off. Look at this last grow for me, I thought I had everything under control and a crazy well water anomaly like strange bacteria, almost sabotaged the entire thing. It was the universe telling me to switch my water over finally to RO so now, I can really say, I have nearly everything perfect. I will build a small sealed grow room that has better insulation against exterior weather conditions so I can keep VPD more optimal. Right now I fight with humidifiers running all day and night to keep RH where I need it due to heaters also running.
I will wait until end of February most likely now due to the cold spell across Europe for the next month.
