    I haven’t bumped them in previous grows, but I’ve also added supplemental lights this and running the main light a bit higher to keep temps down – below 80f. – last grow in summer it was pretty hot in the there and my lung room is the garage & mostly uninsulated.

    It’s coming into winter here in New Zealand so tempos much more stable and lower.

    Also been supplementing and experimenting with work castings and raw molasses every other feed, which has resulted in much more pronounced and very clean terps smell. This is my 7th or 8th grow with this strain, I got a clone from a mate & we both grow the same strain and compare results, he’s now changed to Coco but he grows more plants a lot smaller and doesn’t train/scrog like I do. I pulled a little over 500g (1,2lb) from 2 plants last grow, he got 9Oz from 6. I flipped these three earlier cycle, due to change in season/ external temps.

    I’ve decreased lights by 10 min a week since week 6 (still good ppfd/DLI with supplemental lighting and a couple of CO2 pads – for whatever they’re worth)

    Lights: ACI EVO6 / Ionbeam S16

    Temp/humidity:

    Stable at 80f/60% day and 60f/ 60% night

    My concern comes as far seems really early compared to the bud development, last grows the kolas were way bigger with still beautiful lush green leaves.

    Pic is of previous grow at same stage fit comparison – plant on right is Coco, left is RDWC.

    Hence my concern
