hey urb,
the guava hasplant looks amazing, and sounds like the grow was smooth sailing. That dry sift blend you just posted also clearly some A1 material. I just picked up a pack of the guava hashplant. I'm really glad to hear that its easy to trim, I'm disabled so minimal scissor use is a huge benefit. I grow organically indoors and out, if there's anything else you can tell me about this strain's growth characteristics, that would be awesome.

The only thing I can really think of is that I flowered them real small but they did have fairly productive branching despite being forced into 12/12 before sexual maturity. Most plants I have done this to don't branch out at all and just grow buds along the main stem. So I'd say be ready with support for all them side branches because some of them got floppy on me.

And be ready to enjoy some dank! :weed:

Ever try just turning the light off and keeping the girls in the dark for a week?

I've done it for a few days but never a week.

Some people say it makes them more potent, some say bigger trichomes or whatnot. Only thing that ever made sense to me is better terpene retention. Some terps are so volatile they boil off at room temp. lights on = higher temps = more boiling = less terps in our precious trichome heads. So keep em in the dark keeps em extra cool for 3 days thus retaining more smell and flavor. It'd be interesting to see someone test this with real science.

Awesome. Urb, that was super informative, thanks a lot. with indoor guavas, I wont hesitate to go twelve twelve relatively small to stay within the footprint of my grow space. any outdoor guavas will get support and wide plots allowing the roots to spread out for stability and to form a large root system to take advantage of the aggressive branching.
have a good one :)

I recently left some ladies in the dark for week and noticed a substantial increase in trich coverage and size compared to the 3 previous harvests with the same strain. Can see these trichs from a mile away haha . I had tried it for 2 to 3 days before and didn't really notice much change as it takes longer than that for the plant to really responde ... Just thought I'd throw my personal observation out there . I tossed a pic of one in the frostiest bud thread...should be in the last page or two

It would be super fun to pull out the bubble bags and do some side by side to actually measure the difference in head size!

Ah, I pull them out after they have been in the dark for 12 hours and then they get another 12 hours of darkness before I get to them with the scissors... I actually just did it for a week with the SSH I just chopped.. Because of my laziness.. Haha. Shit is liar liar pants on fire!

Anyone run ssdd outdoors? Or any other good outdoor Bodhi ? Im looking for a solid outdoor strain. Ssdd sounds very good, along with pink lotus, purple urkle x snow lotus. Gogi Og is also a good contender.. Actually any Lotus im liking.. If any one has exp growing these or any other Bodhi outdoors please let me know..
