Do you want to grow cannabis in a simple and convenient way? The Annaboto growing system will provide you with an experience that is fun and fairly hands-off. Crystal discusses her experience and first harvest with the Annaboto.

One of my recent harvests was the conclusion of my first time using the Annaboto, an autoflower growing system that pretty much does all of the work for you. Besides being a sweet Christmas gift, I felt that, as a very new and inexperienced grower, the Annaboto would serve a great purpose in my journey of learning and growing. Not to mention, it would keep the hope alive if my other growing attempts in soil were unsuccessful. The technology was impressive and the whole process went smoothly, allowing me ample time to observe my plant as it grew.

The strain I grew was Bubble Kush Auto by Royal Queen Seeds. I germinated the seed in a cup of water before planting it in the required pod. To start the process, I had to download the Annaboto phone application and connect the machine to WiFi. Once completed, the app will guide you through the setup of the machine.

I had to put the nutrient cartridge, which resembles an oversized video game cartridge from the early 90s, into the machine, along with filling one side of the machine’s base with water. The app also lets you choose the time frame of the 18hrs on/6hr s off light schedule. The machine has a button in the front that flashes different colors to indicate if it needs water or a cycle of nutrients. Overall, setting things up was fairly easy.

The beginning stages of this grow-journey were extremely fun to watch. The seedling responded very quickly to the light and it started growing rapidly. At one point, the leaves were too heavy for the stem, but it eventually balanced itself. At the end of week 5, I topped the plant by cutting the stem between the fifth and sixth nodes. Topping allows the plant to grow outward, which creates more bud sites and bigger yields.

Things got even more exciting once she started to flower around the end of week 6. Tiny bud sites morphed into small buds that turned into chunky, crystalized nuggets. The app gives you an estimated date range of when to harvest. I harvested at the end of week 13, a little over three months from when she started. The app will give you instructions on ending the grow with the machine, which includes draining water to the disposable bucket (part of the machine that you can detach) and disposing of the nutrient cartridge and seed pod. Once the nutrient cartridge and seed pod are replaced and you have a new seed, another grow journey can be started.

After drying, trimming, and curing for a couple of weeks, the Bubble Kush plant produced 3 ounces and 1 gram of flower. The ease of this machine is pretty amazing and I was really only responsible for making sure it had water and one nutrient cycle per week. Overall, the Annaboto is a great option if you’re new to it or if you don’t have a lot of time to dedicate to growing.

A thought provoking journey to a half baked moon and back, Mezzaluna is sure to test your limits - enjoy these insider insights from a high flying Crystal!

One of my favorite things about consuming cannabis is finding that strain that can be considered pure magic. Mezzaluna, a new strain by Dirty Bird Genetics, definitely checks all of my boxes.

I consume cannabis for various reasons, but my favorite place to get to is one of calmness and happiness. Mezzaluna made me feel relaxed and alert, but also happy, goofy, and kind of motivated with curiosity. The goofy part of the high was more like a cerebral trance and I could tell some of my senses were being impacted. I enjoyed listening to music with Mezzaluna because it allowed me to audibly highlight any instrument at any point in a song. The level of creative and thought-provoking energy that Mezzaluna brings could lead to some really fun activities. However, beware of the activity because I almost fell into a social media doom-scrolling black hole.

Besides that fun ride, Mezzaluna also has other charming qualities. After grinding the buds up, the aroma took me back to childhood and heavy consumption of sour candy. The taste on the exhale was a combo of fermented berries, earth, and gas.

I also found some potential symbolism with the name and my experience. Mezzaluna means half moon in Italian, which according to Google, a half moon represents balance and reflection. I think that falls in line with my experience of it being balanced and thought-provoking.

She is also an extremely beautiful plant. Whenever I see a plant that has frosted buds with some pops of that burgundy-wine color, I know I am about to be served a sweet terp-salad.

If you get the chance, you definitely want to go on a journey with Mezzaluna (Fem Photoperiod)!
