The numbers are in on the tahoe.

440 grams.

double what i originally thought, a great surprise. A pound if you include the test cola i took a week earlier.

the smoke is fire, too strong for my liking.

still got the big laughing buddha in the backyard and I'm looking forward to some sativa smoke.

also gonna go out the bush tomorrow and see if the plants me and a mate had going are still there , its been 3 months since we last went and its been a super hot summer and hardly any rain so theres not much hope, we gave up on them as they were way to shaded and stretched heaps. 6 originally 2 died so there should be 4 if the remaining ones survived. If there dead its a good excuse to search for some mushies, think its a bit early yet but can only hope

heres the last pic of them

wish i was there to test the "too strong for my liking " theory, for about a week . u kno for a proper unbiased opinion:bigjoint:

haha yeah for a casual smoker like myself a couple of times a month its fucking strong! an old head friend of mine says its strong but definitely not too strong! he's says theres no such thing! haha

Looking good. When are you expecting to harvest the laughing buddha?
Looks like you're going to get a good harvest there. Keep us updated on your "bush plants"
Great stuff

Ah sweet one of my girls looked to be at the same flowering stage yours did when you posted some pics a while back so on Saturday she will be at about day 75 ish so im going to chop her down then. 80 percent cloudy and a few scattered amber trichomes.

Chopped one of my other girls over easter. Harvested only about 2-3 ounces I would be guessing but the smoke is amazing.

So after this weekend I will have one to go but she is still mostly clear not much cloudy and no amber and a fair few white pistols growing. So guessing a few more weeks. Goodluck with your harvest.

Looks like you will need then help. I had my missus helping me trim over easter and totally under estimated the job lol took a good few hours and it was only a few ounces.

All the best

UPDATE

all down and trimmed now, couldn't really be bothered trimming all the little buds left so just cut them off and there drying now for hash.
the tiniest bit moist for the stuff in the boxes, should be ready for jars tomorrow, the stuff hanging has a few more days, i weighed the dry stuff and it looks like I've hit 2 pounds, will know in a few days.

Ended up going to the bush and 2 plants of the 6 were alive, one had fallen over and was split right up the stalk and all rotten inside but still had green foliage on top. harvested what was there, looked way to early but I'm guessing its because there really shaded in the worst spot, still a surprise because i would have bet they were all dead, the drive home with 2 plants in the back was a worry they stunk, only got about 10 grams though haha, won't be wasting my time again like that.

it was still a great season.

cheers

pretty much all dry and weighed, the laughing buddha came in at 1010 grams. Awesome plant and smoke, a very successful year for me, harvested 50 ounces of 2 plants.

not bad for seeds started outside in spring. I have no doubt the laughing buddha could have harvested 3 lb + if she didn't get sick midway and the bug problems.

anyway thanks to anyone who gave advise on the way much appreciated.
