I am really proud that I made it this far without "Killing my Girl". I am proud of her but I have nothing to compare her toooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, yet!!
Boy, what a learning curve

I don't see any "spider webs" ( which would actually be spider mite webs ) in your photos ( although, as you already know, your photos aren't the best ) so maybe it's the Oxy, maybe not. However, enjoy toking up your first baby and keep growing young man !!!!!Thanks for all the information.
Now I have a new question, once you hear this you will think I have tipped over the edge!!!!!
1st off, I have allways been one of those people who not only needs to know that something works,
but why? Which brings up my question, What happens to the Trichomes when you dry the plant?
Do they just dry up and dissapear or do they explode and spread their contents all over the Bud?
The reason I ask this is when I looked at the buds under the microscope tonight, it looks as though there
are little strings of silver/white stuff that I didn't see before. What is that? kind of looks like the strings?
in a spider webb!
I had to take extra Oxy today, maybe that oxy is doing the talking!
Anyway I also weighed the stem with 3 small buds again tonight, Original weight was 1.8 grams,
tonight it weighs 1.5 grams, it lost lost .3 grams in 2 days, which works out to about 17/18% weight loss
in 2 days from drying. I am going to weigh it every day, for 6 days total and I think they will be dry
enough to sample, I also got me a nice glass pipe to try it out with.
If the word CRAZY/ off his rocker/ is comming up in your minds while you read this, I will understand.
Don't desert me know, I think I really need Help, maybe more ways the just the MJ.
If you read all this, thanks/thanks/thanks,

interesting...................buds are looking awesome. a rule of thumb for weighing them when you harvest 4/5ths of the weight is water. my 5oz harvest ended up being 34 grans. oh also look into Boveda Humidity packs. They take the guess work out of curing. its a 2way humidity controller that keeps RH at or close too 62 percent.
just chop, fry for a couple days then toss em right in the jar with a couple of those amd they willl cure right up. I achieved full flavor and smokeability less than 2 weeks after I cut the plant
eBay has then free shipping 15 USD for 12
in very dry conditions, many dry, then trim. the extra plant material slows the drying down a bit, and green material is a bitch to trim.Yea trim then dry I reckon
Awesome, didnt know thatin very dry conditions, many dry, then trim. the extra plant material slows the drying down a bit, and green material is a bitch to trim.
Just checked out the Boveda Humidity paks on ebay. They have them from 62% to 75%. You think the 62% are the best to put in the jars? This is the first I had heard about this, thanks a Bunch!buds are looking awesome. a rule of thumb for weighing them when you harvest 4/5ths of the weight is water. my 5oz harvest ended up being 34 grans. oh also look into Boveda Humidity packs.

If I order now I might get them before I chop.
I am going to have to chop pretty soon as I just checked and a few of the Trchomes are getting a little Milky, not so clear>
I have no idea what the strain is, it was an orphan seed given to me and the guy I got it from knew less than me??? If that's possible!
Thanks for the info on the Trichomes, I was hoping it wasn't spider mites, couldn't see any!
I will definatly keep all the trimmings, after I dry her for a couple days, to make some butter.
I am looking for the best pain relief I can get so I will wait at least untill the majority are milky white.
I am pretty sure I am getting very close to knocking my baby down, maybe this weekend!!
The temp in my grow tent, at least that's what I call it, is staying at about 82/83 and the humidity at 45/50%, it
is about 105/110 with 10% humidity here in the desert this time of year untill the rains start.
but I have a swamp(evaporative) cooler running in my shop where the tent is, we are in our Monsoon season here in Southern Az so the humidity is much higher with the cooler running than normal. I also have a 6" air filter in the tent to keep the odors down some, when I don't have the air filter running it smells pretty skunky!
What kind of a window do I have untill I have to chop her? I would like to wait untill I get the Boveda paks if possible to put in the jars, I think about two 1 quart jars should hold everthing I will get!!!
1 more question, why do they call the little leaves close to the bud, Sugar leaves?
Actually another question, do I need a grinder if I am going to be using a Pipe? I am not really stupid,
I just ask what could be considered stupid questions!! Cut me some slack, this is my 1st pot rodeo.
Thanks to alllllllll of you for taking the time to help the Old Goat, you just don't know how Much I appreciate
all of you!!! Someday I will tell all of you why Goat is my nickname.
I would never have made it to this point without you.Now it looks as though I will have some meds pretty soon.
