FINAL COMMENTS:

Out of my Nirvana beans, I chose Big Bud to grow first. I really wanted to see if it was a nice yielding plant. It’s an easy plant to grow and has good yields.

The pic quality is not good. It was all I had at the time

Lookin good, Burndt! I'm looking close and I can't see how many plants that was. Looks like 2 with plant stakes? What was your final weight?

Yes 2 plants ~287 grams dry weight. I had to use wood dowels to tie up the colas cause they PACK on the weight and fall over...good problem to have IMO

Hope your BB's turn out just as good! Easy to grow plant BTW
