    A little over-edited due to crappy light. Not the nicest looking plant. Smells like cotton candy - really nice to sniff! 2nd flowering, and grown under LEDs since March 2012

    Giles - it is quite white. I think it is the same clone / sib as one variety you have...although I prefer the shape of the other variety you own!

    Hi Marni, apologies for the slow reply. It sits in the same temperature range as everything else, and the only one I can offer - around 70 at night and 75-80 during the day. A poor range for most things to bloom properly, but this one seems to not mind

    Thanks, Calvin. I think my best option is bottom heat. I would like mine to do better and I think temperature may be the issue.
