[ScottsBuds]

Thank you Sir for adding my journal to this list.
Still very novice I’ve grown less then 10 runs in my grow journey.
Starting to catch on this being the 3rd run indoors.
When I grew outside it was a lot of errors lol..
Only ever had two smokable runs outdoors..
Appreciate being highlighted in this way.

I’ve said it many times love this place and everyone here.
So much knowledge help
And just good people..

Happy growing

[Krista]

These journals/links also don’t match the poll

The votes for the top two should be good regardless tho so I wouldn’t worry too much about it @Olaf.ILGM

[Olaf.ILGM]

Sorry yeah, bit confusing that its not in chronological order. Well, round 3 has been a messy one, sorry about that everyone Will make sure the next isn’t riddled with mistakes.
