High guys!

I'm new to rollitup and relatively new to growin' ganja. I'm learning fast though and just wanted to share my most recent endeavor before I begin my next grow-show.

Thanks tom... they're even stickier now that they've been curing for a while I love the purple too but interestingly the color has been changing over the last few weeks while curing. The purples are turning a darker brownish and the greens are turning blondish. Also the smell is getting fruitier, spicier and skunkier as the colors are changing.

The smoke is real nice. Overall I want to say that it's just very smooth. The smoke goes in with a robust earthy flavor, really tightens up your lungs and then goes out with a clean sweet taste. I start to feel the high as the last bit of smoke leaves my mouth and it kinda creeps up higher over the next 10 minutes or so. It's a nice mix of body stone and heady high, but nothin too crazy either way. I've been able to focus on doing chores around the house, I've gone on some strenuous 5 hour hikes taking intermittent "puff-breaks", but I've also chilled on the couch all afternoon grubbin on some munchies laughing at some TV show. It's not the strongest stuff I've smoked, but easily above average. Though to me, what it lacks in strength it makes up for in taste and flavor... it's just very smooth.

Anyone out there think they could give a rough guesstimate on how much my harvest weighs? lol
