Yeah, it's blurry on the trichomes. Got a 30x magnification lens to get a close up?

Funnily, the image was taken with a Sony compact & 30x zoom lens. I tend not to zoom out fully as being a photographic type, I learned early on that zoom lenses are often at their best at half way. By cropping the image you often get better clarity than you would have had with the zoom extended to 900mm.

I have a 30x jewellers loupe but to be frank, it's worse than the camera - the depth of field is very shallow and the trichomes don't even look as if they're on stems. I have a 40x in the mail which has been advertised as being useful to view trichomes, so let's see what that sees

Anyhow here's another cropped shot and then one of the plant itself.

Multiple prizes at state/national level & even one international prize. Used to run a homebrewing supplies warehouse.

'Haven't brewed anything in ages, 'cos all my gear is packed away in the shed where I'm currently living.

Lawnmower Weizens in summer & 6-6.5% ABV Porter for the cooler months are my go-to house standards.

Awesome mate

11 AM? I'd catch up with the NSW boys from AHB and start drinking at 8 AM.
Tell me about your Czech pils. I have a recipe made with Floor-malted Bohemian pils malt and Wyeast W2278 lager yeast and plenty of Saaz hops. So thirst-quenching.
I also enjoy a Weizenbier, great for Summer.
I have a few 5-tap fonts and beer/ferment/lager fridges and a 500l chest freezer.
I keep coming back to "the Cousin", as Jamil Zainasheff calls it. Did not grow for the last few years, due to a large loss caused by theft and being a good public servant, etc.

I'll get some photos at my farm this arvo. All my stuff is locked in a 40ft container. 23lt as tanks. I used to get my stuff from narre brew supplies but haven't brewed in a few years since the move to rural Vic.
Drinking at 8am? Used to be drink8ng /drunk and ripped from Friday arvo till Monday morning. 5pm somewhere in the world was the mantra I used. Till I met Mrs and had kids and pulled my head in

Did you expand the image to get a closer look?

Yeah I did you really need to be able to see the tricks clearly, you can mistake them for being cloudy if theyre reflecting a white hair and you can mistake them for being amber if theyre reflecting a brown hair

Just by looking at the bud structure would say 4 weeks at least

 

[Snowman78]

I was wondering why my mate from Canada package sent to me was taking so long. Thought maybe because of covid etc. But it took nearly 8 weeks to just get here.
Old mate is good with fem seeds but fucking useless at spelling. He sent it via Austria not bloody Australia. It must've been stuck in limbo somewhere before they figured out the post code thing didn't add up. I looked at the label he sent. Clearly wrote Austria. Time for a few beers after that fuck up

No need to waste electricity here. One in one to go. Days have just gone over 12/12, suns up at 5 these girls go to bed at five with panda film. In a months time I’ll put them down at 4 in the arvo for their last month of flower. Yields looking likely to surpass anything I’ve ever seen.
Low humidity this side of Xmas... early December get ready for Jube-topia haha!!

Early December off the jubes come and on come the 150w spotlights for some revegitation til mid feb, flip these 2nd gen monsters back into bud and do it all again!!

Well that’s THE PLAN anyhow guys!!View attachment 4712295View attachment 4712292View attachment 4712294

They your ones or the new boy friends?

Personally I’d alternate it so they get the extra Darkness in the morning when it’s cooler so you don’t get wicked humidity spikes or accidentally make a panda film oven.

Just asking for a friend are we..?
I don’t have a boyfriend Lucky

 

[Rewerb]

I've got her on "ignore" & have no desire to look, but "Friendship"????

She's incapable of embracing the concept.

Nah, just pawns.

Big trees for that size pot.

I'm now gonna go cuddle my woman. She likes it when I schnuggle-up & we fall asleep entwined.

A REAL woman - not a projected fantasy.

Yeh this thing has an amazing terp profile, and that is the reason I am keeping it. It has a nice uplifting high, but I am more partial to indicas, it also is not the best yeilder compared to others. But the smell off this thing is citrus(lime) fresh as if you cut into a fruit. After harvest the smell becomes more tropical fruity and the best way i personally can explain it is a rich creamyness comes out with time. The smell alone gets me high on this one.

Yeah mate sounds so similar I deffs know what you mean with the rich creamyness I got rid of mine coz of the yield tho

 

[f.r]

Yeh certainly can understand that

Look closer. I’ve cut the bottom out of the pot it’s actually in a pool shell.
but like I said. One in and one to go

Weird thing to say.
No I was just asking as someone the other night said that some pics u posted were not ur plants. So didnt know if they were your ones or someone elses. Was a fairly normal question i thought. Like there are tin snips and old building offcuts in the pic. Which usually points to a males house.
And what the hells a Jubes? is that qlder speak for a tarp?
