I guess I'm a bit of a perfectionist. I do wish I would have noticed when the plant was looking its best and took more photos. I'll try to get a few decent ones before I cut er down


Tell ya what tho I'm about done with this plant can't get the thing to stop leaning all over the place. These last few days are stressing me out

 

[greenscreen13]

Trimmed off some the dying leafs, finally got the lean somewhat straight...she's beautiful and full of color, trichomes and cloudy with some amber, still planning the chop on Thursday

 

[greenmobster440]

Thursday aye? Sounds like a plan. I'd guess 5-7 oz of nice bud off that. I'll be right behind ya with my cjc91s and Tangie.

Thursday will be 71 days and I think she's cloudy enough hoping for some more Amber by then too

 

[greenscreen13]

Welp it's looking like I might need to wait longer then Thursday, I'm not seeing a lot of amber, I took a small bud to get a closer look and the trichomes are all cloudy with 1 or 2 ambers here n there but not much at all.

I think the amber I was seeing was the leafs unfortunately. It sucks having such bad eyes sometimes. I need a better scope. Something bigger with more zoom, the zoom I can see them with is too small of a lense for me to look through. Anyways guess I'll hold out a little longer

It's your call man. I like your slow approach and taking your time. Most are in a hurry. Easy to get caught up in all that when your viewing beautiful buds.

Going over 11 weeks isn't uncommon for photos or autos. Some strains just take a min longer. Well worth the wait.

Just trying to get the best bang for my buck, be silly to wait this whole time to shoot myself in the foot at the end.

I'm just gonna keep checking the trichomes thoroughly everyday now that we are at day 70

Yep that plant ain't done till it tells you it’s done. I just had a beast mode that should have flowered 6-8 ish weeks or so. it went more than 12 weeks thanks to the damned cats shocking her. I am amazed she didn't herm. The weed is fire well worth the 4 or 6 extra weeks. And mr C99 had his way with her too so now I also have BM X C99. Cant wait to see what they give me. BM photos are only getting grown outside. In Dec I will start the March 1st outside plants. I can veg inside but them girls need a 30 gallon pot or the ground. They get huge. I like my 8 ft trees and I Want bigger ones next year. ( greedy ass )

welp got home today and looked and looked at her for a while over and over again all the buds and decided to take her down, there is a good bit of amber some buds have more then other but our first plant is officially hanging.


Ps. I Know I cant make my mind up on things ever

Also, no one told me how much tedious work was involved we with harvest and trimming. I don't know what I was expecting but its a lot of work! I think it took 2.5 hours of just grinding it out and even still left I more leafy then I imagined I would

 

[Oscarzuma]

That's why they call it trim jail. I actually enjoy it, but after a day or so, it becomes a job. Buds at the beginning are manicured, as you go on they become leafier in my experience. It's all about the payoff.
Now, unhunch those shoulders and carry on.

 

[greenmobster440]

Awesome sight to see them buds drying. Ya made a decision. Next time ya do this it will be the same drill... look n look. But now ya know.

Trim jobs are tedious but it helps dry more evenly I think and it gives ya a good look at the bud checking for rot as ya go.

Now ya get to watch them fat ones shrink and get that cut hay/grassy smell. That'll change once they dry but it's sad to watch them loose size.

I bet, they where a bit fluffier then I thought. I didn't take a wet weight but I weighed one the main colas and that branch was almost 2 oz. Im real curious on what the dry weight comes out too.

I'm happy I managed to see her through to harvest and even more excited to get to sample a little when she's done drying

As they dry they will become more drawn in and more firm.

Just checked the tent since putting the buds and humidifier on, 52% humidity. I'm happy with that

Hey man, welcome to the Passion. Damn, dropping in with some goodies to start. I love seeing folks use screens, nets, whatever it takes to control these little monsters.

I used what I call floater screens like this..


What ya got going is working well for ya. Drop by my journals if screens and training interest you.
