Well, I chopped the the Purple Hulk yesterday….what a difficult grow due to the Happy Frog soil. Small, squatty plants with a small yield. But it’s finally done.
When all was set & done, the two plants yielded just under 17oz wet….my hope is four ounces after drying.
In the drying tent they go at 65/65….
One plant was mega sticky, one wasn’t. Aside from my Big Bud grow, these are very dense buds…very meaty.

They sure look it! Sorry to hear about the small yield but it looks like what’s there is nice and dense at least

Thanks man….I was a bit surprised at the wet weight, I thought it was going to be less than that. We’ll see how it dries out.

Thanks bro! This Purple Hulk was a weird grow from day one….between the soil being off right out of the bag and some shaky genetics, it wasn’t a fun grow by any means. Usually we’re all full of anticipation as the grow progresses….but this one was full of ‘WTF is wrong with it now?’
One thing I will say, I sure learned a lot from the challenges.

This problematic grow was finally put to bed….two plants, 4 1/3 ounces. I pulled the buds out of the drying tent at 10%-12% moisture content.
Both are safely tucked away in their Grove bag holding at 59% humidity.
I’ve sampled the nugs a few times and it’s the best I’ve grown so far…very intense buzz. Just what the doctor ordered!
That’s a wrap!

Therr was no training, other than a FIM and I let that auto grow.
She had really good light and ideal VPD.

I have spoke to this topic many times on countless posts, so I think it’s time to concentrate that information into one linkable post.
FIM’ing is a medium high stress pruning method to increase yeilds and allow of a more even canopy. While topping a plant will result in two main colas a fully successful FIM will result in four colas! This works equally as well on autoflowers as it does on photoperiods.
I personally suggest FIM’ing at the 4th/5th node.
After your FIM is complete no other train…

Awesome. My light dimmer just broke. Stuck at 100 percent. Got it 48 inches up now. Only 15 days old.

Watch your node space, if they are not nice and tight bring your light down.
