Thanks. Thats some sweet looking blue dream. It does look trimed perfectly. Im gonna get a mother of that going somehow. I did trim the leaf stems off and most of the extra leaf last night after I posted those and seen that. The smaller vk is looking close Ill have to take a look. I planed on moby dick taking a while. since its half haze and half white widow. it might take 11/12 weeks I think haze is a longer flowering time. I plan to just let it go till they are done. married life is same as befor i was married.

A few seedbanks have tried to remake it, but there is no substitute for the real thing. I'm going to jar mine up right now actually. I need to bottle up my tea too. Glad to hear you already trimmed up all the scrap. Moby Dick is like, 9-10 weeks I think.

my buds are taking a while to dry. some of the smaller nugs are dry but the larger denser nugs are still very moist inside. Had a doob of it this morning and I enjoyed it very much. It has a good head buzz while maintaining a strong stoned body high. Just right for going to the renasaince festival today. Im back had a good time it was hot thou. I was supprised to see alot of the glass making places now have bongs and bowls. very cool stuff. little pricy but you gotta pay for unique. I have a feeling that small vk will be done in a couple days. I spoted some amber trichs but also seeing a few clear heads. I figure since i got 3 it wont hurt to take them down at different stages and see whats better. Anyhow off have a bowl of some agent orange i picked up yesterday. very good.

Oh man, you like that Agent Orange? I've been thinking about picking it up for a while, I love Subcool. 2 Dairy Queen beans actually cracked a few hours ago, so I am going to stick those in some cubes in less than an hour here. Bongs and bowls at the Renaissance Fair eh? Sounds like some cool medieval pieces. My sister preforms in a Renaissance fair, and Civil War reenactments and some Pirate show too. I don't think I've ever watched her preform in any of them, lol.

You'll always see at least a few clear trichs, the crystal development happens in waves, so you'll always see new clear caps forming. I judge on how many amber and opaque caps there in comparison to clear caps. 30% clear is usually when I crop, I always try and go for 30/30/30. Some people like to crop when there are almost no clear caps at all left, almost a pure 50/50 amber/opaque. But I totally suggest three different harvests on the VK. Who wants to trim that much at once anyways? Since you have 3 VK's, make sure you bag all the VK trim separate from the rest of the plants so you can have some straight VK hash.

hell yeah. I am storing all my trim seperate for each strain. I wanna have some hash of each and see whats better. The agent orange was good. Kinda heavy at first. but it works out nice. I put the ice into jars today. everything feels nice and dry. stems are still bendy thou. total weight at this point was 69.8 grams little under 2.5 ozs. might loss a little more from cure but its still a nice harvest.

Anywhere between 2-3 oz and you did a great job. Since you trimmed your bud into nugs it's better they go in a little wetter and cure slowly, since they dried more quickly.

Watered all the plants yesterday. changed out the res. on the flood table. I went back to floranova. although they did grow nice on the flora bloom and micro. The Ice was accualy pretty dry when i put it into the jars. I been smoking on it. a couple lower branches on my small vk where broke off so i trimmed them and hung them. The ice is kinda different smoke. Starts with a real nice head buzz brightens you right up. after about 45 minuites it heads into a body stonedness and you stay there for about 2 hours. head to toe. I really enjoy this smoke. has a sweet taste and smell to it. a tiny hint of sour. I would give this a 8 outa 10 its pretty good. I mixed a bowl of ice with some uk cheese hash. whoa I was full on stoned everywhere. very nice.

White rhino is gonna be done soon. 95% of the pistils are receded and the trichs are cloudy. I looked in the scope at it and all i see is cloudy trichs no clear or amber. Im sure if i looked around i could find some. Ill prolly harvest that plant next. although im intrigued to follow the breeders instructions and give it an extra week to let the white really come out. prolly wont but its in my mind. gonna start working tomorrow. so I wont be seeing the ladys as much. most likely thats a good thing. casue the more i look at these bitches the more i wanna cut them down. they are looking so good.

So when is the rhino supposed to be done??If its only a week or less away give it the extra week boss unless u need ur herbs now..JMO..Cant wait for mine to be done tho, ive had to cut a few nugs of lately due to not being able to find stuff on the regular basis and with it being atleast 3 weeks away from done im getting a nice buzz of it so i know the finished product will be nice and with a proper cure...Ive had to toast mine in the stove to smoke it..lol

I hate waiting! I'm waiting on half my crop too buddy, I know the pain. If you aren't scared of mold let it go that extra week. But when they are in this stage they are always at risk for mold. Fucking whodatnation let his shit go for 2 weeks after he was supposed to harvest and even with dying leaves everywhere he didn't have any issues.

Im not consernd with mold to much i do keep an eye out for it thou. I dont need smoke Im just watching them. white rhino is looking good but its not done yet no amber trichs. all the pistils are gone but Im just waiting for some trichs to show up amber. my white rhino dose have a ton of dying leaves. Im watching that also dont want it geting into my buds dying. right now is trying to keep the buds supported they are all falling down. I got string everywhere holding shit up.

Yeah I did too in my first few crops. Put a little more circulation in the room during veg and flower and it'll help them hold a little more weight next time. You can get away with a few less strings that way, if any. Yeah dude, keep on top of those dead leaves, they will rot back up into the nugs if you let them.

I picked the white rhino 2 days ago it was ready. now Im watching the northern lights and the moby dick and the other ice. they all have visible amber trichs althou they seem to be much smaller than the cloudy ones. the rhino looks great and was a decent yield haven't weighed yet but it looks close to the ice yield maybe a tad less. Kinda waiting on the pistils to die some more so i can get the extra weight from those also. Id say about 65% are dead now on the nothern lights 85% on the moby dick and about 30% on the ice. I wanna let my northern lights go longer so I get a good stone from it to help me sleep. The moby I wanna get the more happy head buzz from and the ice Id like a little of both. The one I cut last time was perfect so Im looking for the same signs. The vanilla kushes are still going strong and the white siberian is look like 2 weeks at least.

Nice, the hours are hard but it feels good. I just used your journal to check the age on my Autofruit 50+ days. Looks a lot older than that, but I left my scope at another growers house.

Man, I wish I could get some crazy bat shit hours like you.

Sweet. The fruit is kinda deceiving. it looks almost mature at around 50 days but dont finish until around 75. at least in my case. I cut the northern lights. Had reached maturity and the trichs where good mostly cloudy few amber and a few clear. Huge harvest fill my whole drying area. I waiting to harvest moby dick untill the northern drys. That hydro tent is geting crazy with buds. That vanilla kush top is pretty large also. Going in a different direction. I started some butter yesterday should be done tonight. Used 3 lbs of butter (real stuff) and 6 ozs of trim. Should be decent. I already got some browies ready to make. my wife loves the fruity pebbles treats. I will make some of those as well. Also I got today off. my boss got chewed about having me work so much overtime. He cut my hours back big time. I didnt mind working alot of hours but its also nice to have a day off to chill.

Yeah dude, I'm right around there and i totally thought it was done.I'm glad you are getting fatty yields man, it's gotta feel good, especially after last rounds failure with the 47's. How is the seedling grow going? Haven't seen an update on that for ages. Have you checked out the recipes by BadKittySmiles? She is on a whole nother level, and I recommend you do all your butter, oil, and cooking hash recipes by her guidelines. Her cannabombs are INCREDIBLY potent, seriously knocks you right the fuck down and puts you out!

Mmm-mmm, that northern lights is going to be some fucking bomb ass smoke. I wish I could get some NL, I was looking at Sensi's NL Haze as a possible new greenhouse girl. I have some friends down the hill making a greenhouse and I was thinking about maybe sneaking a plant in there if they are down. But they are beginners, so it would take a lot of my time to check up on her a lot and properly take care for her. According to sensi she is a plant for experts.
