Not sure if you were talking about my garden traind but Im gonna be posting the pics I have hopefully tomorrow, I suppose I will just start a thread and show off the big girls. Ive never posted any pic's up, lost my camera but borrowed my sisters and Im gonna have my brother-in-law help me load some pics up. I have no idea about how to get them posted up here on RIU, but soon as I figure it out I will have them up...I think some start to think its all bs unless I have pic's up, so its about time I put some up of the outdoor garden, I have to say they are pretty impressive, I dont have any of those real tight shots that you can see the trichs or anything, havent quite figured it out that good, but I got some good individuals and of the whole garden...maybe if ganja doesnt mind I can post some up here on his thread...peace, every1

Alot of the times when you first put your buds in jars it will begin to get that hay smell, but burp it a few times a day for a week or so, then you can usually wait a few days in between openings, the longer you draw out the cure the better your bud will end up tasting and smelling, thats why I typically start jarring my bud just before its completely dry, I like to extend that last 10% or so out for awhile for the majority of the personal for the down the road. You can always get by with just drying and smoking, or a quick 1wk or 2 cure, which is usually what most do for the majority of the weight, but its surprising what a good 3month cure can do, especially if it's already some fire, like the saying goes..."growing is a science, curing is an art form" Sometimes its a shame to see some people get lazy in the end and atleast do a minimal cure to finish up the process, but to each his own, Ive smoked plenty of amazing herb that was simply dried and smoked, but it will always get skunkier and funkier with time, main difference will be how smooth the smoke will be....sorry to ramble, again

Sweet welcome abored! I actually live about 2 hours from Redding and I'd have to agree with you they do have some bomb clubs. My favorite use to be the I Center till they got shut down. So now when I'm down there I pick my stuff up from Trusted Friends. You said you have some Cali clones of Bubba? And you like the GH version better? That's cool about the topped plant... I'm planing on doing this to my next indoor run and now maybe next years outdoor. With my spot I can't have anything taller then a 6 footer so I need to learn how to bush em out. I'm also surprised at how well the duck tape helps to heal plants. Everything I bandaged up seems to be doing just fine. You should deffinatly start a thread sounds like you got some skill to show off but your more then welcome to post some pic up in here too.

I clouldnt agree with you more buddy. Curing is a must! A craft I'm still perfecting. Last year I experimented with the process. I too found that the buds that went in a little moist and had time to finish were much danker then the quick stuff.

No Im not saying greenhouse's bubba is better than the cali bubba clones I got, just that I was surprised mainly about the impending yield its going to produce. But in no way am I saying that GH's bubba is better quality than the local clones I have, GH isnt true bubba anyways, just a bubblegum crossed with whatever kush they had, but it has surpassed my expectations, I'll be able to tell you more after harvest when I can see the final product.

Yeah these plants don't really smell like the Bubba I get from the clubs. Which sucks but I wasn't expecting it to be the Cali cut.

Yeah its gonna be totally different but Im actually very glad that I took the chance with the feminized seeds of GH bubba kush, I was worried also because they were just recently released by GH and with alot of the other instabilty issues of some of their "newis" strains. It was a bit of a gamble considering I didnt sex them cause I dig large pits atleast 4ft deep and all are backfilled with my soil mixture which isnt cheap per hole and thats not including the ferts/nutes that would be used up until I could of had any sort of problem. I actually did attempt to grow a church plant after I had heard how unstable it was, at first it looked great indoors under 500w CFL, but instead of actually making her a true part of the garden, I planted in 25gl grow barrel, darn thing started to flower in june, then stopped and seemed like it was trying to re-veg, then came out one morning and it was dead, life of a marijuana platn Ive ever seen. Also have 4 BB cheeses from fem seeds that have turned out great, kinda short (6ft) huge bushes, with very sativa structured leaves, not sure if I was lucky but those cheeses grew like clones, all the exact same pheno, very, very little difference out of 4 seeds.

Looking good, is that blue widow from dinafem, I know I got 3 blue widows or blue somethings from dinafem that attitude hooked me up with. Man I literally have atleast 40 different strains, maybe 50, that are just waitng for my addition to the grow room and getting some extra tents. Im gonna be starting a bunch of different strains trying to find some diamonds in the rough, Ive had crazy good success with seeds over the last 2years, although my last cycle indoors got ravaged by mites and I lost over half the crop, first time in my life where that signifigant a portion of the garden was lost, good thing outdoor harvest is gonna cheer me up. Im thinkin beginning next week I will be harvesting the top portion of a powerkush that turned out great from dinafem, I like to cut all the tops and let some flowers underneath get a chance to mature a bit, always good to stagger each plant just a bit. Anyways both both those plants in the pics look good, I really like the look of that blue widow, should be all kinds of fun. Peace my man...

Hey how far out are you from harvesting those? One of mine looks at about the same state of flowering so trying to get an idea of how much longer was hoping a week or two but not sure first time growing. And those things are dam beautiful brotha. How's the rd doing or was it totaled from that last rain?

@BluffinCali- Damn man you ain't kidding that's some expensive dirt! Lol know wonder you have monsters... What you feeding em girls and who breeds the BB Cheese? That's a strain I've always wanted to try. Well cheese in general. Sounds like some dank. Yeah I'm running Dinafem's BW and it looks like one of the best plants for sure. Awesome freebee! That's alot of strains, you should deffinatly end up with a couple keepers. I know how you feel about the mites. Their horable! I think I might of just fixed my bug problem. I spray every week but it didn't seem to make a diffrence until I added a no pest strip in the room. Now I see less and less mites everyday. Actually I couldn't find any yesterday. Anyway I use the same harvest method. I think it's deffinatly a waste if you don't leave the bottom nugs a bit longer.

@Trained- Actually the RD and SLH were the only strains not harmed. Not one broken branch. The RD's have huge strong branches and the SLH didn't have much weight. The Blue Widow and Red Dragon are the closest to finishing. I could probably take the BW today but I'll give them both another week. Still no amber triches as far I can tell.

Man these pictures don't do the plants justice. I'll try to use my girls cam before I cut anything. It takes quality shots but I have to find a computer to upload them. I'll eventually do it though so you guys can see the resin. Can't really see any crystal but trust me it's on there.

Uuugghhh hot dam they do look sticky you can just tell lol.dam nice brotha dam nice. I have been told to wait till 90%-all hairs have turned color and start curling up back towards the bud. They say the trics are important but its the way the bud looks the most i done know it was on Zeus take on harvesting and I've seen a couple of people saying the same. What do you all think? I have on the one i think is dang near finished one nugs that's as big young as a coke can and a little taller and the other i think five top colas are as big as a half dollar and about eight nine inches long. But they keep growing more new white hairs.it sucks they've been growing outside since the first or second week of march flowering.g since middle of July id say. But it is still in the Hundreds here so i think the weather and me having only givin them hose water and super thrive as a nute may have made them retarded lol let me know what ya think. I wish i knew how to post pics from my phone each time i try it doesn't let me.

and man that rd is bomb looki g i dont know why but that is the one i have loved since the begining.well done sir tip of the hat to you. Lol

Well if it's a mainly sativa plant (long thin leaves) it can take a while to finish. My Super Lemon Haze will probably finish sometime in November. Anyway Super Thrive isn't a nute from what I can gather but if you have can sized colas lol. Then your probably doing ok just let them rippen man.

Oh yeah and yesterday I watered all of Site 2 with 15 gallons of PH water.

Today I watered Site 1 with 15 gallons of water. I then added another 5 gallons with 2 tbsp of Morbloom to each of the SLH's. The AK and RD were given another 10 gallons of PH water.

Haha its so wired how these plants have survived through 115 degree weather all summer in az dry and everything and they just kept going. Some dam survivors. But ya just waiting lol there are two different if not there different kinds. Two have long thin leaves but one has really thick hairs and one has hairs all over and thin though but a krap load of hairs everywhere. The third is dark green just is getting swollen but all whit hairs everywhere it has awhile to go im sure. But the leaves are mad more dark and fat and leafy if you know what i mean. I think the third ostensibly gonna be done in dam near Dec.
