I’m about to bottle five more gallons of my home made muscadine wine look how clear it is. About 14% abv and decent, I’m playing with recipes and technique for the preferred taste profiles.

This next pic is from the last batch it was about 12% abv a little dry but decent, I’ve drank 5 bottles so far with no hangovers or botulism. I’m gaining confidence and enjoying the process. E6268BAC-E3E9-4D7A-9B1C-CFF477D9E6E7.jpeg

Also have several plants running that are seeds gifted to me from members and am loving the results so for maybe a Christmas harvest.

Good morning everyone and hope y’all have a great day.

P.S. special thanks again to @Singlemalt and @DarkWeb who gave me directions and advice, DW for continued advice and support. Darkweb if you will add me to your list of members I’ll pm you with more.

Didn't start yet, but gotta get up on the roof and clean the chimney. That's not bad.......till you go to the basement and open the cleanout. Then it gets dirty quick. But with a high in the mid 50's today and lows in the 20's this week coming......I'm turning on the heat.
It got down into the upper 30's F here last night...I've used the new gas fireplace several times already and I'm loving it. It's on low right now!! I do need to service my boiler though.

It's bubble hash day!! And it won't be bad...I only have like 5 gallon bags of bud trim. My buddy is coming to help too. I have 2 methods...a mini washing machine utilizing "work bags", or a 5 gallon bucket with a paint stirrer on a drill, before they go through the screens. The paint stirrer works best if gentle.

And I broke out my Arizer Extreme Q last night...It works much better with the MM Putang. I hadn't used it in 3 months ever since I got my XVape, which is now beat. I learned my lesson on cheap vapes...well at least this one. The Xvape was great for a short while though, and I'm pretty much vaping dry herb 100% now. I love my Arizer, but it's sure not portable...but it's well over a year old with heavy use and still like new.

Now shopping for a better quality portable...maybe a Crafty, or Davinci, or Pax 2/3. I get so wrapped up in reviews...which is why I been car shopping for like 5 years...seriously!! Last 3 cars have been Honda Accords. Good but boring.

OK, baked and off to buy a few bags of ice! 8-)

I gave up mothers awhile back. I just cut clones at 2 weeks in flower from stretched under growth, works like a champ and saves me space (which I need). So many good points, auxins haven't switched the undergrowth to flower yet so you may not have to reveg. Lower nitrogen allows quicker rooting, etc....
Interesting to hear you say that. With the exception of random bagseeds we dropped as kids into Mom's houseplants, I'm still very new to growing cannabis. Cloning, growing a mother and subsequent root pruning of said mother down to a more manageable size are all to gain personal experience with growing techniques. It's been a lot of fun.

Back to clones. Attached is a picture of 3 clones from the same genetics. Here is the lineage:
Original mother (NLH3) was the only female from three Nitro Lemon Haze (NLH) seeds germinated.
NLH3C1, NLH3C2 and NLH3C3 were clones taken from NLH3 after she was moved to flower.
NLH3C1, NLH3C2 were subsequently flowered. NLH3C3 was kept as the current mother.

The two clones on the left were taken during defoliation of NLH3C1 and NLHC2 during the third week of flower. They (mostly) revegged and rooted. The clone on the right was taken from the NLH3C3 mother.

Due to the reveg on the clones from the flowering plants, all three ultimately rooted and potted into soilat around the same time.

The clones from the flowering plants have shorter internodal distance, more flowers and rooted slower but flowered faster than the clone from the mother. Is this consistent with your experience?

And BTW, what do you guys think? Are these ready? ;-)

Well that's done and damn it was messy. Looks like I gotta do some masonry work, the top bricks that are holding up the slate cap are loose. No problems fire wise but either me, or I need to hire someone.....little chores like this add up and snow may fly within the month....wish I knew it and went up there this summer. But at least I can have a fire in the furnace, fireplaces suck if it's colder than 40's and they burn up wood fast.
