Whoa Keef your dog is shiny! She's a gorgeous girl.
Been surreal up here in the VT/MA/NH corner lands. My two best friends have been told to stay home from work. One is a teacher, and her school has shut down. The other is in industry, and her mom (not sick at all) was up visiting from Florida this week so HR told her to telecommute for the next 14 days. My job is rumour central. 300+ employees in the building and upper management somehow all has Lysol wipes on their desks. Meanwhile I'm out back diluting bleach and calling in orders from my bulk chemical supplier for extra 99% isopropanol and listening to floor workers complain that we aren't valued. Okay it didn't take a virus to tell us that, here's some bleach, I can't do anything else for ya, sorry; I'm hourly too and don't have a magic wand.
Went to Hinsdale NH Wal-Mart after work to buy phone minutes and see what's up. ZERO remaining stock of anything you could wipe your 4ss with: tp, napkins, tissues, paper towels... GONE. People dragging two full carts of supplies. Kinda weird to see what folks consider supplies for end times... junk food and cereal? Ok guys cool cool. The diabeetus gonna get you before any virus even has a chance. I picked up some chicken and ground beef; I'm well stocked on rice, dehydrated veggies, and dry beans. Meat got repacked for the chest freezer.
Also hit up the state packie for a couple handles of potato juice and the chicks in line behind me had two carts full of cheap fruity vodka and boxed pink Moscato. How can you tell the difference between COVID and a hangover? Think they're gonna find out.
The tobacco n beer shop next door was just as bad. Line ten deep and a couple guys had brought in a hand truck and had it loaded with about 20 bricks of keystone. Wouldnt be my first choice for a last meal, is all I can say. Grabbed a carton of spirits and peaced out.
Not even going to get into the guy in a jacked up pickup truck with a 4 foot political name flag doing burnouts in the parking lot. What, WHY??!!! Because new Hampshire, that's why. This is normal. In the sort of way that the sunrise is normal on a day you know a cat5 hurricane is 20 miles off the coast and bearing down fast.
We're seeing the edge of the storm here now, and I'm not interested in going shopping in public for a few months.
In other news, I drive i91 to and from work, and the last week has been a steady northbound stream of nice cars with ny/ct plates. My bets are on the first epicenter being a ski resort where some infectious new Yorkers fled to their condos and treated it like vacation... why stay in the condo when there's a bar full of hot hedge fund managers downstairs? The 1% quarantine-cum-vacation. Bottoms up, beyatches. Telecommuting with a view? Ok enjoy the slow internet! Page loading? Might as well go back downstairs for another round of Lawson's and some person-to-persom transmission.
Surreal. All of it. 20200313_164914.jpg 20200313_164919.jpg 20200313_164932.jpg 20200313_202621.jpg 20200313_204655.jpg
 
Words of truth there SA. In my state they have cancelled schools as of tomorrow, not a single case reported in the state yet. Half of the people who get sick will probably catch it from contacting the very things they are hoarding now and then not washing afterwards.
 
I made a run to get canning jars. I picked up some 75% drinking alcohol and coconut oil. I got home at 4:20 and tried my first non-trim bud from my partial trim The trim was a gentle buzz, but I was lulled into a false sense of security and had more than enough. I impressed myself with the potency, but my cure needs improvement, hence the other supplies.

Today was first stone in many years, the drought is over. The rest, 2/3 of my first crop should be harvested on March 20 or so. My second crop will be smokeable around 4/20. The third will be 5/10. I expect up to a pound of dry bud.
 
Try taking your trimmed bud and storing it in an appropriately sized storage tote (after drying) and doing the burping thing for a few days (least a week) before you put it into small containers for storage. Lotsa times your fruits will drain off excess moisture more evenly and that results in smoother tastier smoke.
 
I did bag dry most but moved some to a jar early, while the stems were leather tough. I'm retrospect, I harvested too early. I'm shocked that it's even smokeable. I put the plant on water diet after the partial harvest but before the upcoming rest of the first harvest. The changes in the rest of grow #1 is part of the learning curve.I

Tote? Good idea.

Good Morning OFC...I see everyone has the Virus on their minds...I understand....unknown things can be scary...just use your knowledge and you will be fine...think how it would be if you had no cannabis. It is quite possible you have been dealing with COVID-19 for months unknowingly ...lot of PHD's say any where from 50,000 to 500,000 cases in USA alone...lots of us have been exposed and beat it.Just keep your hand on your wallet in these crazy times...big Pharma was standing with the Guvment drooling over 50 billion chips they laying out there...testing may help a bit with containment...but it is mostly a money grab and an attempt to pacify the public. Outdoors is your friend...sunshine on my mind and body will help in all aspects. If you can ...stay out of buildings with closed ventilation systems( the kind that requires Plenum wire lol)...they tend to be filthy to start with...my Sis used to work at a school and they serviced the AC system one year ...she got a cough that just would not go away...never did find out exactly what caused it...but it took AB's and Steroids to kick it. Off for a walk...enjoy your day amigo's!
