Moby Dick & Critical Jack (Autopot)

THC - 17-22%, CBD - 0.01 - 0.2% 40% Indica/ 60% Sativa It was fun growing this strain. This grow was meant to be fully in Autopot but because of its nutrient hungry nature, it's caused frequent nutrient lockouts which made me flush every 2 weeks or so. Just after flipping, i started manual top watering for the rest of the grow. So much more improvement after that but defeated the whole purpose of convenience growing in Autopot. Watering 8 plants everyday was annoying to say the least. Had to invest in a wet vacuum to avoid lifting the pots to empty run offs. Responded well to mainlining and multiple supercropping. Seriously impressive how this strain rebounds back so fast after every high stress training. It showed its sativa dominant phenotype with its intense flowering stretch which forced me to perform multiple supercropping to maintain even canopy. Did a simple comparison of mainlining - 8 colas vs 16 colas. 16 colas gave an average of 20-30g more. 16 colas would be great with scrogging. Without it and relying on stakes can be a little troublesome to support the tall and lanky branches even more so when the buds pack in weight. So 8 colas is more practical if scrog net is not used. The smell during grow was only prominent during late flowering. Very strong sweet mango smell with a hint of citrus. I was going for high yield for extracts experimentation and boy this plant deliver. Very happy with the yield. 663g and together with Critical Jack 1.2kg total yield for this grow!!! Never would have believed it more than a year ago when I was still smoking shitty brick weed and if someone told me that I would be growing more than a kilo of premium buds.🙂 Dried for 7 days and cured for another 7 days before smoke test. The buds are dense and thick. Sweet mango and citrusy smell with spices and earthy undertone. Starts off with typical sativa intense head rush and euphoria which lasted for about 1 hour followed by a little stony effect but not too heavy. No paranoia.  Strong munchies though. Music especially sounded amazing. So put on your best pair of headphones and listen to any well remastered album with excellent soundstage.🙂

THC - 15 - 20%, CBD - 0.01 - 0.2% 40% Indica/ 60% Sativa It was fun growing this strain. This grow was meant to be grown fully in Autopot. But because of its nutrient hungry nature, its caused frequent nutrient lockouts in coco which made me flush every 2 weeks or so. Just after flipping, i started manual top watering for the rest of the grow. So much more improvement after that. If I had continued growing in Autopot, it would have been impossible to obtain such yield. Responded well to mainlining and multiple supercropping. Seriously impressive how this strain rebounds back so fast after every high stress training. Even though her genetics is 60 percent Sativa (just like Moby Dick) but the phenotype is more like Indica. All 4 plants were short and stocky. Did a simple comparison of mainlining - 8 colas vs 16 colas. 16 colas gave an average of 20-30g more. 16 colas would be great with scrogging. No support needed for this strain as they grew short and with Silica supplement, the stems were strong enough to hold the bud weight. The smell is only prominent during late flowering. Earthy and piney smell with a hint of citrus and fruity. The terpene profile is not as strong as Moby Dick. I was going for high yield for extracts experimentation and boy this plant deliver. Very happy with the yield. 529g and together with Critical Jack 1.2kg total yield for this grow!!! Never would have believed it more than a year ago when I was still smoking shitty brick weed and if someone told me that I would be growing more than a kilo of premium buds.🙂 Dried for 7 days and cured for another 7 days before smoke test. The buds are dense and thick. Earthy and spices aroma with a citrus and pine undertone. Quite an intense head rush initially then plateaus after about an hour later. I managed to complete my RDWC build for my next grow immediately after smoking it, so is productivity one of the effect?🙂 No paranoia.  Strong munchies though. UPDATE: After 4 weeks of curing both strains, 2 plants from Moby Dick and 2 Critical Jacks were used for hash extraction. I used the dry ice method with bubble bags because it looked way less complicated than ice water. Not very happy with the result though. 3 bag sizes used, 73, 160 and 220 micron. Even the 160 has so much plant material in it that it made it impossible to roll/ press with hot water bottle. 73 micron extract came out alright though far from melt quality. But the 160 was just impossible to press. I can either turn it into puck OR rosin extraction. The terpene profile from 73 and 160 micron is just amazing.
