started yesterday. i'll work on this plant for 2 or 3 days then move on to the next one. all my plants are finishing at different times so this works out really well.

maybe an ounce or 2. looks like mostly hash material.:-o
Thats what i figured, don't get me wrong your plants look huge and massive, but the buds are always hidden by leaves and it can be hard to tell sometimes.

I was way out with my guess, I think your right you will do well to make that 3lb mark you said about.

hey fd how long do you leave them hang before you put them into jars?
depends on the weather. i dry in a converted barn. there is a lot of ventilation so outside weather affects drying time. somewhere between 5 to 10 days.

fdd how do u check your trichomes?



i have lenses and loops and scopes and such.

this one probably could have gone another week or so but i need to start bringing some in. i put it into 12/12 when it was 12" to determine sex. when i went back into veg with it it never fully recovered. it has little spindly resinleess buds just below big fat sticky colas.

i've not seen it quite like this before. usually it's fluffy buds but these are a little different. could be lack of light due to the density of the plant......IMG_2664.jpg



it was pissing me off so it took her down.:twisted:

glad i did what i did. we had rain yesterday. i got to the top cola and found 2 little spots of dead growth. this was from the first 12/12 of sexing. it was buried all the way in the bottom of the bud. it was wet. in 2 days it would have turned to rot. ......IMG_2666.jpg




all done.........IMG_2668.jpg

Just wondering, how do you connect those fat nugs to the line to hang and dry?

just hook the bud over the string. hook it using a side nugget. be careful when you lift one off or you will "slingshot" the whole line of buds into the air and you can only catch 2 as they fall to the floor. one in each hand. the rest go everywhere.:evil::evil:
