First Grow Journal

It’s been 90 days, give it take a day or two, since the first seedling from my first grow broke soil. That girl has been harvested, dried, and is currently continuing to cure, with a dry weight of 68 grams. Which is actually impressive considering the shenanigans that she had to put up with...
