So what's it like smoking crumble? Is it just like doing dabs? I keep wanting to try it....$25 an eighth. I've never smoked shatter eitehr and they have that.

Oh wait...I am having a YouTube moment....

Shatter, Wax, Crumble, Kief, Budder, Honey, Moroccan brick, etc. IMO all fall under the umbrella of 'Hash' or 'Concentrate.'

There are differences in clarity, taste, and potency and it all comes down to the amount of processing. Shatter has fewer waxes and fats, distilate would be 100% free of them, and crumble has more of them. Most of them you smoke like dab or top a bowl or roll in a joint as the video showed.

As far as any of the above in a dab dish, for my money they're all about the same. I like anything I can get 100% of it out of the container, if there's a coating of anything that just won't come out to be smoked, it's wasted product. So I like crumble over shatter or wax mostly because it's easier to handle and get into a dish or a dab pen, and just about anything over budder which most the time I've gotten it is nearly impossible to get all of it out of the retail container.

I started flowering my current plants 4 weeks after planting. I'm new to growing in tents but I'm sure short stout plants are the way to go.

I like to keep my closet plants under 45 inches from the soil line when they're done. This is day 2 of flower, they've been in veg for about 14 -17 weeks (I didn't count honestly I just kept pruning and watering), 3 transplants, multiple toppings down to almost sticks above the soil then regrow out while I waited for the flowers that were in this closet to finish. Right now after all that they're between 17-19" off the soil, probably won't hit above 36" based on the last harvest. Looking at 30ish top cola lollipops between 3 plants with little to no underside popcorn.

The extra long veg is a consequence of trying to get sets of clones from each plant and not really a goal of the harvest, but what I have noticed is I've got massively dense roots all the way through the pots as a result. So it's going to be interesting to see if that translates to more flower at the top. Probably going to have to water heavier in flower as a result. I usually try and keep veg under 12 weeks to minimize my cuts.

I was going to chop and clone about 6 weeks ago and cut my veg time in half but my wife was grumpy about me throwing away 12 gallons of soil to do it, so I just kept them as short as I could until the flower room was open.

So you don't 'have' to fast fire your flowering cycle just because you've got limited height in a tent (or closet in my case,) just have to be very methodical about when and where on the plant you make your cuts. I've always trained, cut and kept low because I've always got to wait for the flower room to harvest before I can move the veg plants. I personally like the idea of having more root growth time to give the plants plenty of root mass to pull nutrients out of the soil.

It's snowing!! Just a light flurry, but I need to move my car under cover!!

Sprayed my girls in veg with Regalia / Venerate, watered them. They are past ready for the flower room. I am going to move them into the flower room very soon.

Now that its cold outside...I have a bunch of premo sticky trimmings to make hash out of. ...and I have to serve time in trim jail soon too.

Is it naptime yet?

We are like opposites! I never train, sometimes top and never take more than a few cuts to root. And I never discard soil. I flower fast by choice: I've grown trees in the past and the longer they are alive the more likely you are to have pests or take your eye off the ball. And ultimately you get more bud over time by going through grow cycles fast imo.

These were vegged for 90 days in 5 gallon of perlite. I don't recall the yield amd it was probably 'okay' but I always laugh at those tree trunks. I was just figuring things out then (still am)Screenshot_20221115-143300_Chrome.jpg
