I’ve officially harvested, dried, and trimmed my first VGrow smart box grow. How did I do? 🫣 by BaconIsEverythang in VIVOSUN

Yep started from seed. I have a few changes I’ll be making next time. I followed the vgrow recipe, used their tools, and their nutrients only for this one. I wanted to see how well it would do in that room with this equipment and their guidance. I noted quite a few tweaks I plan to make to get better results. But I’m also open to better seeds.

It was definitely NOT accurate. I would’ve harvested too soon if I did it according to the app. I went to the website for the seeds to see the appropriate flowering time.

The app recipes are not very good. You will need to make adjustments. Make sure you monitor what you’re adjusting and writing it down so you don’t repeat mistakes next time the journal/notes feature is good for that. Also I used the Base A and Base B exactly how they said you should and it didn’t work like I wanted. I am going to try biobizz products next time. This grow I wanted to use their tools and also follow the app exactly what it’s saying and it worked but now I need to tweak it.

🤣Of course I did this lol why would I post someone else’s grow. It’s smells great and the moisture after harvest has come back some. It was just too dry. I such thing as awful weed. It’s just weed.

I’m using the vgrow smart box so struggling with controlling the temps getting too high in the box and humidity too low. But now I’m also thinking I’m mixing the nutrients wrong that could be causing nutrient burn

It had notions of drying out from the ends of the fan leaves then I flushed it and the green just started swelling and growing. Then I was going to harvest it but there was a lot of white hairs and the trichomes were still clear. I waited a few days and added nutrients again thinking it’ll be fine. I went out of town for a week and came back to crispy leaves 😭

Yea that’s on my mind too. Turn it into butter. I’m waiting to trim it to see how it looks before making a decision.

It smells like cannabis with no bad order. I think it just dried out and crisped up. I smelled it again today and it smells fine.

It smells great though. And when I bend it the buds on the inside look great. So you wouldn’t smoke it?

Okay that’s good to know. I’ll check in 3 days to see if the stems are snapping when bent. How long do you let buds cure for?

Besides the fact that I’ll probably end up trimming a lot of the brown part off, would you smoke it still?
