Bending the stems didn't give the expected feel and when I squeezed a bud while the little sugar leaves were crispy I felt I general tackiness I may have confused with moisture. Live and learn!

Well, sports fans, that's about it for this grow.

The buds are jarred. They're still exchanging gasses so to speak every few days for a spell, but that will be winding down. The buds with the assistance of the 62% Boveda packs actually have a moist feel about them. They are not rock hard. I don't know how much to attribute this to the fact that there is a covering of little leaves cloaking them.

I owed CLW a journal in exchange for subsidy and I have applied myself substantially. It may not reveal grow secrets that will push the production envelope but is an apt description of how the light might be used in the hands of your common neophyte. I have not returned the light and don't plan to do so. I think it has done its job and is well suited in any case to provide enough light for autoflowers. Photo-types?

So thanks CLW and if/when I embark on round 2 I shall consider sharing results.
