Live Stoner Chat First time guerrilla grow (COTC Cash Crop)

[Gooderish]

Hiya, I'm a longtime stoner but first time grower. And it's been a helluva learning curve so far. My plant Priscilla (I know, I'm sad for naming her), has had an extremely hard life so far. I think I've made just about every mistake that it's possible to make.

For the first 4 - 6 wks of her life she's had to contend with...

1. heat stress
2. overwatering
3. low humidity
4. nute burn.

But the feisty little bugger just won't quit.
Now that I've sorted all the above out she's started to bounce back. Her new growth is a lush green but she did lose a lot of leaves due to yellowing and dying. But her bud sites seem to be healthy and are growing at a rate that you can notice the difference daily.

She's now on day 53...

The next 4 wks are going to drag on hard.

Welcome to AFN. The learning curve is steep but you will get there.

Quick update... I decided to start bringing her down on day 85.
To start with I left her in the pot inside me tent. But I kept her in complete darkness for 48 hrs.
On day 87 I wet trimmed her. Again still in the pot. Once she was trimmed (horrible job that I hated) I cut her down and put her back in the tent whole, upside down and in complete darkness.
The RH is around the 50% mark give or take 5%.
Temp is floating at between 20C-25C.

And that's where I am at.

Any suggestions, tips or criticisms will be gratefully accepted.

I think I may have pulled her down early. She only weighed in at 40g. After 2 weeks of curing I tried some of the smaller buds and they seem to be lacking the heavy stoned that this strain is supposed to have. The buzz is extremely cerebral and visual, lines seem sharper and colours are pastel.

It's been a fun learning curve and I aim to grow 3 different strains next. I'm going to apply all that I've learned this time through and see how it pans out.

Thanks mate for the words of encouragement.
The strain I grew is Cash Crop from the Cream Of The Crop seedbank. I chose her for my first grow because of her Northern Lights heritage, I wanted an easier experience.
I've added a photo, I believe it was taken around day 70ish. I didn't take many photos for the same reason I didn't write anything down, It's illegal to grow here and I didn't want to leave paper trails.

For my next grow I've got LSD, Glue Gelato and Critical Kush; All from Barney's Farm and all auto's.
