    % Weight lost in drying before putting in jars

    What % of the original wet weight of my buds should be lost before I put them into jars? A few of the smaller buds are crispy on the outside and have a spongy texture after 4 1/2 days hanging so i jar'ed those today. What should I do with the really large buds (these are decently dense as...

    First Grow with Barneys Nightshade(homemade box)

    3 plants, 2.5oz thoroughly dried. Had the potential for a lot more, I made too many mistakes with the NS girls. mother was vegged for 12-13 weeks or something and yielded about 1.2oz and had the potential for a way bigger yield but I just about killed her, twice. the 2 clones taken made up...

    First Grow with Barneys Nightshade(homemade box)

    Did the yellowing quit? I'm just starting to really enjoy my NS harvest and this strain was worth it. Doesn't have the knock-down smell in the jar or anything, but it smokes pretty damn good. Keep us updated with your girls, you've been a little more careful with em than me and they should yield...

    Honestly,..im terrified!

    Do you do this immediately after cutting them down? Meaning, they go into the jar wet, and at night you seal them up and then let them stay open in the day time? Are they receiving light when they are open or is it just the warm air circulating through the room? This would obviously take more...

    Flowering times, different strains, different times

    I go simply by trichome color (thru a 40x loupe) and by the look of the plant overall (ie: whether new pistil growth was occurring, if a large amt of the calyxes are swollen, if the pistil hairs were receding). My 2 strains were listed at 10-11weeks and 8-9 weeks by the breeder but actually...

    Company: Barney's Farm Strain: Night Shade Method: grown from feminized seed, indoors, in soil, under CFL lights Growth: somewhat fluffy, darker green buds with a lot of brown/orange hairs, lots of crystals Bag appeal: 8-8.5/10 depending on if you look at the denser buds over the fluffier...

    Barney's Farm Night Shade

    I harvested BF Night Shade (1 mother + 2 clones) at 63 days of 12/12 (+72 hours darkness-->66 days total at chop). Mother yielded: 1.4oz 2 Clones: 1.1oz total Just about 2.5oz total from the 3 plants. Nothing impressive, but had to report it b/c of the lack of NS reviews out there. The close...

    First Grow with Barneys Nightshade(homemade box)

    Tremendous, just a killer job on these man. Stay frosty though, don't get lazy and forget to water/check the lights and timers/check pH/monitor yourself and the plants' nutrient schedule. Watch for all the harvest killing pitfalls: mold, bugs, landlords, men in blue, girlfriends who don't...

    My Magic Blue Mystic

    definitely throw em in for 24 hours of darkness, don't let the temp drop too low w/o the lights though. I did about 36 hr so i could get the 12hr of light to go from 7pm-7am and not have to worry about temps being too high w/ lights on or temps too low with lights off. There's a lot of...

    First Grow with Barneys Nightshade(homemade box)

    The light change shouldn't be a problem, I did much worse and did alright with my NS. Here's a couple shots at harvest time of the mother plant. I put it into 72 hours darkness at day 60 of flower (sex was determined before 12/12 switch) it had about 10-20% amber and the rest completely milky...

    First Grow with Barneys Nightshade(homemade box)

    Looks tremendous, I've been busy with grad school and the first wave of harvest lately-- sorry for the absence. Keep doing exactly what you're doing. Don't get excited and try anything drastic. Just have to stay in-tune with your girls and wait until its harvest time.

    First Grow with Barneys Nightshade(homemade box)

    Definitely tuck the big fan leaves behind the budding sites. I went through and actually took off some fan leaves (from my blue mystics not the NS) when they were in veg b/c so much was covered up. Tucking things back and tying back some of the bigger branches to expose the bud sites on the...

    First Grow with Barneys Nightshade(homemade box)

    Especially nice if you snipped a couple fan leaves you couldn't tie back or got burned by a light (a little help in the carb metabolism department I believe I've read). Definitely good on the salts/nute build up (when used alone in water). I don't think it effects the smoke if you take your...

    First Grow with Barneys Nightshade(homemade box)

    Here's a pic of one of the buds on a NS clone. I topped both of them and tied them down nicely. This bud is about the size of a prescription bottle, perhaps larger in girth, but just as long. There are 4-6 buds of this size or just a hair shorter on both plants with several buds about 1/3 of...

    First Grow with Barneys Nightshade(homemade box)

    I am on day 52 of flower with my Barney’s Farm Night Shade in soil, under CFLs. I germinated 1 feminized seed, vegg’d it, took 2 clones, and then vegged them all some more. I vegged the mother for nearly 14 weeks (outrageous!) and the clones for just about 5 weeks each. I threw them all into...
