@@GreenGrows, thanks for taking time to check out my grow diary, I learned a lot growing this strain. I am believing you are saying your tent is only 4 feet tall? If so...yeah, you are going to be in a pickle if you do not train them. My mature veg/ flowering tents are pretty tall. 70 and 80 something inches. Now I had some room and I did some low stress training and then I used a net to make a line i wanted to keep my plants at, I let the plants grow 10 inches past that, recommended by ILGMJ website, then pinched and bent them over. And i hear its best to do that in big groups or all at once so the plant can heal, same with trimming leaves. You can see i should have done better at that but i am learning. During flowering you can expect plants to double, maybe triple depending on a few factors like lights, nutrients. But i would do my best to veg your plants and get as short node distance as you can, you can control this somewhat by keeping light as close as plant likes it, i found mine liked a little distance. And like you said, training. One think i also read is if these plants run out of space vertically or horizontally, they slow down their growth on their own. Not sure if that's true, but some fish do, so maybe lol.

Growing it
Easy
Resistance
Strong
Amazing quality from seed onward. Every seed sprouted, every seed was female. The grow was very easy for a first time indoor grower who made several mistakes and yet got top shelf buds and a great yield for my first try. I did struggle to control my humidity at the end, and one huge bud weighing 14 grams got mold all through it at the very end while drying, but all the rest of my buds appear...pretty perfect. Despite my discovery of pest invaders a couple of times, I really did make it through this grow with only hydrogen peroxide and D.E. I used all General Hydroponics Grow and Bloom Series. The plants I started in soil and transplanted to Hydroponics totaled 5 plants. One in soil, one Hydro and we totaled out at 13.1 ounces of bud, and about 2.5 ounces of kick but "shake" (my standards may be a little tough). I recommend ILGM highly. I have successfully ordered and received 3 different sets of seeds. And all of them have produced what the site promises. Plus, its the best customer service I ever had from an online vendor, and they are in another country. This strain is great for you if you have someone in pain and if you can make your own Tinctures, FECO, and edibles. I want to now master growing techniques and focus on producing top quality maximum yields that allow me to give away medicine that people, including myself cannot afford. I could not do that, without the help of people out there who take time to help others. So thank you. Bottom line, best buds i ever smoked. I will be growing this again very soon.

LOVED G.H. but i did not use Duo until very end, I started out with their Bloom/Gro/Micro and adding Cal Mag, with Duo it saves money by combining all those in two ingredients

This tent was pretty good, but it needs more entrances. When my grow got huge I found myself crawling like a cat to reach stuff and broke 3 big branches which cost some yield.

One last report...my bud is a little harsh. I do not know if it was me over using chemicals, I followed the General Hydroponics chart, and halfed the amount many times. I did flush the plants the last 3 days, and I used this Blueberry final flush. That did not make one iota of difference. I need the cleanest healthiest buds to make top shelf edibles, so I appreciate anyone who can help me make the best oils and edibles, I would love to see your diaries, please reach out, thanks!

I have harvested all but one plant. I am experimenting a bit. This Girl Scout Cookies Extreme, best buds I personally have ever smoked. My pain is really really bad. I literally lost my stomach in January after several bad surgeries and medication decisions made by one man, but bottom line is this plant gave me my first zero on pain scale in 3 years. I made it off Fentanyl patch and Dilaudud (4 times stronger than Morphine and my patch 50 times stronger than Heroine i was 36, 37, and 38 years old with this fate and people want to say people "use drugs" ?! I tried CANNABIS out of desperation to stop going to ER for Malnutrition and Dehydration. This plant allowed me to stop nearly all medications and thats the truth. Now, I did not have this strand through my situation if I had, perhaps I would still have my stomach, who knows. I got beautiful seeds from "I Love Growing MJ" and I used the technique where you drop your seeds in water until they sprout. A few days later, planted them in Foxfarm, poked holes in pot to let soil get air, put all the little plants in a house closet with a 300 watt LED Hydromars about 30 inches off of them at first and on half strength. I grew them like this using LST and also a bit of HST on some of them to promote more colas, and It kinda worked, but the bottom of my plants I feel with more knowledge on better grow techniques I could have yielded a lot more, but I am really happy. I estimate about 1.3 to 2 ounces a plant, but we will see. I ended up growing 5 beautiful GSCE (I gave several seeds away to friends in California who could grow just in case I bombed, and also I wanted to actually bless a lady who truly sent me free Cannabis for healing, as also a Brother sent me FECO oil with CBD and THC at a beautiful thick consistency that I could take sublingual and that helps with absorption. I actually weighed 387 lbs at my highest weight, I weigh 137 and have not even had skin removal surgery, though I am good with my natural self now as long as I am healthy, I "sprung back" surprisingly well, but truly my goal is to heal myself and others. This strand, EVERYONE I HAVE READ, reviews GIRLSCOUT COOKIES EXTREME says this is the strand for pain, and hands down, they are not lying. I will be sharing final weight, of the bud lol, when I get everything dry. All the ladies are hanging, except one. I want to push the Trichomes on this last plant about 7 to 10 days further, its an experiment and plus as high as these others are, they could have had more amber. I am using Hydrogen Peroxide to prevent insects and put air in water, and I am going to add another air pump so I have more air, and let plant enjoy all the lights in tent without other plants, AND I used a Blueberry Final Flush product, I just wanted to try it on one plant and so when it is all done, I will give a last and final honest report. I know many may wander, why document the personal, medical side of this... Because I live in a Democratic city in a Republican controlled state, Kentucky, and our city has told police to no longer enforce laws about Cannabis, but state wide not all towns are like that, and like much of the US, there is an attack on people and this plant unlike any other, its truly an attack on liberty, pursuit of happiness, and I am prepared if something happens I may not survive what they will do to me, but I want it to be known it was a God sent plant and it heals me, no matter what they say or do. And I hope that my story, if that does happen, will make a real difference and get people the freedom they are entitled to.
