65gal smart pot Scrog year 2

[WattSaver]

Great grow, 3wks might be overly optimistic the purple kush looks like it might be another month but the skunk could be another 6+ wks. Hope the weather holds out for you. My outdoors needs to get to the end of Oct.

Those are some beautiful ladies you have there. Would fill up the entirety of my back yard. I’m a little further north than you and am feeling like I’m going to be forced to cut at least my death bubba here pretty soon. Already fighting rot and the weather doesn’t look very promising.

 

[TimewasterOG]

So I take it you haven’t cut them yet? Are you getting a resurgence of summer in ON as well? My forecast took a major turn for the better, let’s see if it’s true....

Any updates?

 

[Bigbruce420]

So I’ve harvested the largest of the pineapple skunk and purple kush, the other two are maturing just a bit behind.

5/10 strings are full, still have two more plants to harvest, plus I have two hanging racks that are half full

Man, that's a lotta work!

 

[TimewasterOG]

Suitably impressed! That’s A LOT of scissor work my friend....or did you use a machine? Curious to know the dry weight off just those 2 plants. Wow. Job well done, mister

 

[Bigbruce420]

I used an 18” fan trimmer, it’s the yellow square in the photo, gummed up 3 sets of blades.

No mold problems? I’m not too far from you and we just had like 4 days of 100% humidity....I’ve learned purple plants are very difficult to spot mold on.
I had to butcher this poor cola last night. Lost the whole top 3” of it. Here’s hoping you’ve faired better!! Again, fantastic job

Tarp = dry buds.....I did find some mold but ya very little amount was present. Cost of growing outside.

Yeah, had mine under cover too (not as grandiose as yours). Imagine it’s helped some or they wouldn’t still be trucking along at this point, but when the air is literal soup there’s not much I could do aside from air flow. 100% humidity + fog = dampish buds anyway. Still had to give them a bit of a wiggle in the mornings.

Looking the same as mine. Very high leaf concentration near the buds grown in the Arctic.

Thanks everyone for tagging along!

All the plants are either hanging or bagged.

There is still some popcorn but I have more than I need already. All this is going to bubble hash and then rosin

So the tarp has come down and I will start cleaning up.

Tomorrow I will post pictures of each plants base/trunk.... got some great antlers this year...
I will post updates on total weights and the hash I make from them when time comes.

Really happy to see you made it to the finish line. No need to worry about stash till next years harvest for sure. Double thumbs up.

Wow what a grow! Congrats on the harvest. The fan blade trimmer I'm gonna have to look that one up. Seems if you're doing it alone you did it really efficiently.

Ya the “razor blade fan” as I described to co-workers was a huge game changer, however there are limititations such as blade sharpness, plus I needed a lot more blades then it came with.

plus I might build more of a wind tunnel to suck the leaves into the fan and Hold the trim inside and less spraying out. Still space for improvement.

So here is a quick update from the end of the season:

my guest bed is a little crowded but helps with burping the bags, once done I’ll put them someplace safer, plus the cat wants his space back:

here are some of the trunks:

hash from trim and popcorn before I shredder to dry, still going to press for edibles:
