So here's my setup: I use a closet with a multi level T5s for seeds/clones/early veg. Then there's a 3'X3' Secret Jardin Darkroom with a 600W hps/mh that I use for both veg and flower. The big tent is a 4'X4' Darkroom with a 600W hps and it's flower only in there usually. The bigger plants in the flower tent are all ladies and are 1-2 weeks into flower depending on when they showed sex. They are: Chocolope, Querkle, Vortex, Alpha Dawg and Sour OG. In the small tent vegging at 3 weeks from seed are: Apollo 11 Genius (X2), Diesel, Chem4 OG, Tahoe OG, Cheese Quake, Burmese Kush and an ak-47 x northern lights.

I chopped my first harvest today!!! I finally got my scope, saw Alice was ready, had a few hours with nothing going on and I did it! I am so proud! She was little, and I abused her, but she pulled through for me.

Yeah, I scoped her in lots of spots ranging from top to bottom. Granted the bottom was a little early, but the tops were more than 50% amber and the rest was mostly milky. The scope is absolutely one of the coolest tools! I nearly went blind playing with that thing. I checked Alice out for a solid hour. Granted, I probably could have done a partial harvest and let the bottoms fluff out a little, but heck, it's done now. Besides, I needed her box to move some other stuff around... LOL

And it was just one of those kind of days. She was ready, I was ready, I had the time without anybody else around to disturb me, and she and I had a last fling while I watched Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets for the dozenth time, smoked a bowl and trimmed my first harvest.

My hats off to everyone who's done that. I kept thinking to myself, eh, so you cut a few leaves, what's the big deal...snip, snip and you're done. I have a deep respect now for the trimming process. That is a long, slow, tedious process with no shortcuts if you want it done well. I spent over 2 hours on tiny little Alice for probably an ounce of weed, if that. But I loved every second of it and can't wait to do it again. Since I intend to have much larger plants, and more of them, I think I will have to chop and trim a branch at a time. My hands just don't have the strength and stamina they used to.

im not bragin... but try hand trimming for two days.
not fun.

i've seen vid of cali big ops where people (plural) are trimming for days & days by hand. like pro hand scissor master type people tight trimming bud so fast its amazing. for days.

pro trim hand spun version is right around the corner for me.

two zips like 25 seconds. nice.

i like to hand trim "loose" ...this way on the screen there's a buffer between herb & metal.

everything i leave will break off during the cure process of moving, jar/unjar (i use ziplock bags), etc.

Trimming blows....I'm a little OCD so I have to try and get every little leaf and after about 15 minutes of workin the scissors, my hand cramps up something fierce. I usually just throw the dried, untrimmed bud into jars and trim a little bit as needed...not ideal, but gotta do what ya gotta do.

Trimming Bud is a chore and the worst part imo, I used to love it too lol. Sit for 24 hour straight chopping up x16 plants 4-6 oz on each (dry) and it soon looses it's lusture believe me ;-). Although the whole lot hanging sure does look impressive :bigjoint:.

@Smokey, nice work fella :weed:. Keep that good stuff comin :fire:.

@Kona' its all that Bud your tokin makin you frisky sista, sex & weed go hand in hand ;-), my girl gets real handsy after a few bong hits of a sweet satty. Shes not a smoker but has a bowl every now & then bongsmilie for an early night lol.
