Guesstimated Dry Weight: ... ~80 to 85 grams


Notes:
The smallest of the 3 Cream Mandarine Autos.
Now I remember why I loved this strain in Grow #1.
Beautiful, frosty, sticky buds.
 
Harvest Update - Day 65

Cream Caramel Auto #1

Guesstimated Dry Weight: ... ~45 to 50 grams

:dammit:

Never saw this coming - not in my worst nightmares.
In Grow #1, the Cream Caramel Auto girls were the best yielders - and most consistent - all of them around 4oz.

Same tent.
Same lights.
Same sized Airpot.
Same environment.

The difference?
LST in Grow 1 ... vs ... No LST in this Grow

Lesson learned.

Seems to be a recurring theme with this harvest. The fact still remains that you have some grade A product there, and next time you will have an abundance ( which you actually have this time) of grade A product. Now you know which ones to LST and the ones you don't need to bother with. Its hard for me to feel sympathy for you, just look at all that gorgeous herb!!! A smoke test will put things in perspective for you!! :pass:

Looking back at the very first page of this Journal, gave me a reality check.

Today [Mon 18 Jan] is Day 1.
Other tweaks?

I'm going to;
  • let the ladies grow au naturel in terms of structure and shape; i.e. no LST. Why? Curiosity - I want to see their natural shape and form, but also, as a comparison with the first LST grow in terms of plant structure, bud development, and yield.

One of the main reasons I chose not to LST this grow, was to compare apples with apples.
So, now I have my answer.

I just didn't expect it to be such a dramatic difference!

... and you're right - I can see the quality hasn't been negatively impacted on.

Also have to be thankful that 16 seeds went into the tent, and 16 plants came out!
