Indoor Sweet Skunk Auto & Tangelo Rapido Auto - Kush's Low Budget Grow

Today I chopped the Sweet Skunk down and trimmed the buds. This grow is officially over. What is left is drying and curing the precious nugs.
While I was trimming the Sweet Skunk, I noticed that its smell has changed from the stench of Shit to the sweetest aroma of Grapefruit. I love it and I hope it retains that grapefruity aroma after curing too.
Here is the harvest / yield:

Summary of all the problems and mistakes that slowed my plants down:

1. They lost almost one month of their development because their roots were struggling to penetrate the Jiffy pellet membranes and were unable to reach the soil. I will never use Jiffy pellets again.
2. They grew under exhausted and weak CFL bulbs for the majority of their life. They were eventually given decent LED light 2 months after they germinated, but obviously it was too late.
3. The Tangelo Rapido did not autoflower and converted to a photoperiod plant. Because of this, I had to switch to 12/12 for it to start flowering, but that 12/12 schedule probably killed a lot of Sweet Skunk's yielding potential.
4. The Tangelo Rapido developed Phosphorus deficiency and died. I had to harvest it way too early.

Live and learn.

That's it, folks! Thank you for following my grow log and I hope you have enjoyed it.
Will post back with the final dry weights of both plants. There will be a smoke report as well.
 
nice grow and journal :thumbsup: a job well done,enjoy :pass:
whats up next ?
happy hols.
:pighug:
Thanks, this grow was a great learning experience for me.

Up next is another Sweet Skunk grow, this time in 5 gallon smart fabric pots and entirely under LED lights.

I may also plant the remaining Tangelo Rapido seeds outdoors - it is going to be a guerilla grow, a set-and-forget kind of scenario, where I will not be tending the plants at all and will let nature do its work for me. But this will happen after the winter is gone.

Merry Christmas to all!
