What up what up!

Shes almost done! Her hairs are a much lighter orange than my last AKR but thats ok she looks very nice! Very frosty and awesome smell. The last few days shes started to put of more of a coffe-earth/citrus/sweetness and stinkin pretty good. Its not so heavy that its super noticable but its that low lingering skunkyness lol.

Right now id say trics are about 95% cloudy/milky. Not to many on the amber side so im waiting a few days to check again. Shes gettin very close to the chop and i cant wait!

Day 73... Chop chop!

So she got the chop tonight. Just finished trimming and hanging the buds. Shes very frosty and alot more bud than what i thought what is always a good thing lol. I havnt weighed anything yet, I figure there isnt much to wet weight when then final product is what counts. Ill definitly be doing a smoke report and a dry weight.

Over all im happy how she turned out. Hopefully she smokes good (pretty sure she will lol) and hopefully i got her in that perfect harvest window. Well know for sure within the next month!

Sometimes, Mr Smokie , its best to chop the main , then let the rest do there thing ,
When U think about it , if the main wasnt there ,the plant only has to support, whats left , ie, putting all its energy into remaining buds
Filling em out & so on............just something to think about!!
Either way , thats your best effort ,............on ya

Oh yeah i know about partal harvests lol I did it with my last grow on my quick one and pretty much doubled my yeild lol. I considered it with this one but i dont think it would have produced enough extra to be worth it. I do think that some LST whould have GREATLY improved my yeild. Situation dictates with me its all plant by plant. Thanks tho and its a good comment. I dont think alot of people really think to do that and just chop all at once.

Sup guys!

Got her weighed out and jared up.

40.25g dry! My guess was 32g dry so a little extra lol. The buds smell good and are pretty sticky. Slightly fluffy but no biggie. I figured itd happen because my grow area sucks on air movment and stays warm. Other than that im happy with her!

2 me fluffy buds are unfinished buds, or not enough light, thats why i suggested picking only the top ones & letting the others mature, & when U remove the large buds ,the plant can put all its energy into the remaining, it works well, but in saying that enjoy yor smoko

Fluffy buds can be caused by a number of things. In this case the plant was in higher temps the entire grow and has more than enough light. I know about partial harvests and looking at the trics and how little extra growth would have occured it didnt warrent more time to me.

I appreiate what your saying & if your happy ,great , & whats more i wasnt there , so i really dont know
Im far from an expert on trics , but different strains ,the trics ,can go from cloudy to a light orange, so its a hard one
I do know .that a double harvest = more, but ,it does take a little time , & imo, the reason is , the shock the plant recieves from the first harvest, but that is only my oponion.............& it probably works better ,if the plant was supporting more flowers,(imo)

Anyway nice job & lets see your next grow , cheers

SMOKE REPORTS PLEASE, nice outcome mate,
most def man! i forgot to do one lol

she turned out very nice! by far the best plant iv harvested so far. very sticky like to the point where i was gettin kinda mad cuz it made rolling a pain n the ass lmao (i smoke alot of blunts). The smells and flavors were outstanding. All the AKR i grew was very similar in the smell/taste and frostyness but this one had a strong flavor of fresh grapefruit. She also had a strong undertone of fresh brewed coffee and syrup.

The flavor from these buds was very sweet and almost... creamy smooth??? lol kinda hard to describe exactly... maybe more like a sweet/nutty flavor is better. She also had that nice kind of bitter/skunky/bite of kush. Either way it was dank!

The high was really nice also. I like indicas alot and this one did the trick. It was an all around body high with a good head high that wasnt overpowering at all. I have anxiety and irrability..."issues"... lol so to much head high for me is generaly a no go. I really liked it over all as with all the AKRs iv done and it helped me out alot.

Over all id give her a 10/10. very sweet with a fresh coffee/syrup/citrus smell, very sweet flavor with that nice kush bite and a great body high. Id recomend picking up some seeds for sure. The simplisity of the grow is also a huge bonus. Extreamly hardy plants that are pretty hard to mess up lol.

Those girls r lookin good man! I wish i had the space to upgrade my tent. The little 2x2x5 i have works but just barely lol. It sucks cuz it limits me to growing indoors between november till about may, wich isnt so bad but I cant fit more than 2-3 plants at a time. The reat of the year i cant grow at all or i have to go outdoors but maybe some day ill b able to get a real tent! lmao

heres a pic of my outdoor plants (photoperiods). 3 outta 5 made it and are now starting to bud.
from left to right... Purple Afghan Kush, Blue hash, and Euphoria. the PAK and BH r Dimafem and the EU is Royal Queen Seeds. The EU is pushin 4' and its everybit as wide if not more and the other 2 are pushin almost 3'x3'
