GROW JOURNAL:

Cannabis plants thrive in a temperate climate with plenty of sunlight. Outdoor cultivation is best in areas with a warm, sunny, and dry climate. If you have access to clones, you can also start with healthy cuttings from a mature and well-cared-for cannabis plant. The medium should provide essential nutrients and good drainage for the plants. Affogato strain flowering time is 8-9 weeks with outdoor harvest coming in mid October. Prune away any dead or damaged leaves regularly. Monitor the trichomes (resin glands) on the buds to determine the optimal harvest time. Trichomes will appear milky or amber in color for most flowers. Harvest the buds, and allow them to dry and cure properly. We advise consulting the cannabis community for more grow tips.
