Use an 18/6 vegetative cycle and switch to 12/12 for flowering. Maintain stable temperatures and reduce humidity during late flower to avoid mould.

Start with a balanced vegetative feed and increase phosphorus and potassium during flowering. Avoid overfeeding to reduce the risk of tip burn and nutrient lockout.

Monitor trichomes from week seven and harvest when most are cloudy with some ambers for a balanced effect. In Suffolk aim for early autumn before persistent rain.

It has moderate resistance but can suffer rot in damp conditions. Good airflow and lower late-season humidity are crucial.

It tolerates mild cool nights but prolonged cold can slow ripening and impact trichome production. Use fleece or temporary covers in unpredictable weather.

Low-stress training and light topping encourage several main colas without overly extending stretch. Support heavy buds in late flowering to prevent stem breakage.

Yes, with shelter from direct salt spray and good airflow it does well near the coast. Coastal humidity management remains important to prevent mould.

Moderate coastal temperatures can preserve volatile terpenes and maintain citrus and cedar notes. However, high humidity may dilute aroma unless drying conditions are controlled.

Feminised seeds simplify cultivation by producing only female plants, which is helpful for new growers. Beginners should still learn to spot pests and nutrient issues early.

Cure for at least two to four weeks in a cool, dark environment with gentle burping early on. Longer cures of six weeks or more can deepen flavours and smooth the smoke.
