so far kkday harvested about half the crop about 2 weeks ago. random kindness, kkday, and I spent about 4 hours trimming those bad boys. not sure on the weight, I'm sure kkday can answer that. the rest of the crop is still in the mountains and I think kkday's gonna pull them sometime this month. the stuff we did trim looked pretty damn good though. reminded me of the original "diesel" strain I used to score up in maui back in the day. never sampled it yet though.

yeah I sampled some its some irie stuff. Good taste smells like heaven when grinded up. High is powerful, not a 1 hitter quitter by any means but a few hits and your really up there. You wont be disappointed!
I think I harvested too early, I chopped the lower half this afternoon and all the trichs were still pretty clear, This strain takes long to flower yeah?
nearly lost my whole crop to bud rot due to this fckin wind and rain. I dry my plants in the forest... The top part of my plant had been "drying" (more like wetting LOL) for 4 days when I came to check on it my tarp had been blown away and half of the buds were on the ground all soggy and wet the other half just wet and didnt look too good. I am hoping they will dry up nicely, I rid of the rotting ones. lost about a third of the crop so far >.<. Better than getting it all ripped!

ya, it takes a long time to flower. the rain and wind was doing some major damge to kkday's crop too. that's the reason for the partial harvest.
I always laugh when I see this smilie >.< hahahahaha! sorry to hear you lost a third of your crop though
edit* I seen your technique of how you dry your crops in the mountain, pretty cool dude.

how can you dry stuff in the woods? seems like they would just get mildew/moldy instantly without a closet and a fan. or atleast a box.

I wish I had a clearcut answer for you brah, but someone told me to go "private" and send FedEx. USPS = Federal Government laws (felonies). But then someone else then said that was bullshit, you could get fucked either way. Look into this more bro, be careful.

Hemp seeds are okay to eat and by far the most healthiest organic source of Omega Fatty Acids,
Walk in with a bag of flax seeds and throw the Hemp inside, fishem out later.

Brah, I went through LAX in late September, and they use a full blown body scanner, and I didn't know about it. Ok, too much info here, but I am not a "Hanes" kinda guy. So these TSA motherfuckers saw my pubes, among other things. Hell, they may have written a daily report saying they saw a "cheesewheel." This 9-11 reaction bullshit is a PIA, but it's better than getting all blowed up, right?
I think seeds are safe, but some of my friends take their stash like "no big deal." I don't have that kind of luck, so therefore, 'won't push it.

The wind acts as natures fan! yeah seriously. I always situate the tarp so the trade winds can flow freely in and keep rain out, of course when the wind doesnt tear the tarp down...
I really like drying in the forest. I have smoked the same strain, same harvest, dried both indoors and outdoors, no difference in potency. I did think the outdoor dry one was a little smoother maybe, due to slower drying (more humid in forest). My last crop should have taken about 3 weeks to dry or so. I pulled them out at 2 weeks but they could have used another week. Pretty slow drying...
The only concern I have is the sun degrading the thc, and wind/rain. But again, side by side smoke tests reveal the same potency even after they dried for 2 weeks outdoors.

Hi Guy's
I just harvest some of my Ak-48 and its air drying as we speak.( The bud smells like a skunk shit a roadside fruit stand
) Here's my dilemma I’m going on vacation for a week and I won’t be able to check on my buds while they are curing until I get back meaning I wont burp the jars I'm worried about coming back to moldy buds....I was thinking about putting them in a jar with holes poked in the top for air circulation and pray to the pot gods that they’ll spare my buds from “mold” I’m fairly confident the buds will dry out enough to place in curing jars before I leave.....The question is how should I store the bud during the week that I’m gone?
Thanks in advance for any advice

I'd just mail it in some 1st class mail. That's me though. Do what you feel is most comfortable to you. If you are worried or not as comfortable send it express from any carrier. FedEx, UPS or USPS.
The reason why i'd send it first class regular mail is because I've sent all kinds of shit through the mail and it has always showed up. There is way to much mail flying through the postage system for them to analyze all the mail. Just pack it correctly and use some common sense. And throw an extra stamp on it to make sure it gets there and not returned to sender. I'd also put the return address the same as the destination address to make sure it's one way only. Should take 3 to 4 days to get to Honolulu. And this time of year is the best time to send it, with everyone sending greeting cards and gifts all at once. Shit, send it in a Xmas card to yourself..........

....I should have stated the proper timeline...The harvest was Sunday 11/7 and i leave 11/12 for vaction and return 11/19 (12 days of drying) They'll be dryer than a popcorn fart by the time i get back.....I guess really dried out uncured bud is better than shity moldy bud...lol

cooter i dont think you should worry about leaving your drying stuff for as long as your going. aslong as you keep the buds separated and provide a bit of air flow like your poked holes in the jar method you were talking about your gunna be mightay cherryyy. and grassified im really considering your drying technique. ive always had a passion for the forrest and would love to grab some of the atmospher into my buds. plus the smell of eucalyptus aint too bad after you get used to it

I would use the flat rate box to send seeds...
Last time seeds were sent via regular mail... apparently the letter sorter smashed the seeds...
So make sure that you are aware that a letter probably goes through an automatic processor that probably spits the letters through it..

Damned yellow copter was flying over my house pissing off my neighbors with noise. You know they legally can not enter our airspace when we own the land unless they are acting as a guest. The law was put in to not stop tourist helecopters from having to pay rent, but it is still my property above my house. I follow the laws so they were just being harrassing I guess because i'm not breaking any laws... That or they dont know how to fly and were recklessly endangering my neighbors and other citizens with their antics.
