First Grow! Sealed/Closed Room, 2400 watts, CO2, Mini-Split AC, SmartPots, Dehum!

The caliber iii is bomb. Seems way more accurate and sensitive than the walmart hygrometer from china i was using. Smell was still dank on the plants someguy15...

Sadly after sitting in my jars overnight most of my caliber iii's are only now readng low 50s to 55% rH. On the lsd dry buds. The jock was too wet when i did this and i had the opposite prblem. Funny. . Sounds likei slightly overdried the lsd buds cuz according to simon 60-65% rH is where ya want em. Next time ill add more humidity to 50% rH steady when drying and might pull em at 6 days drying. That would ensure a perfect cure for my environment i think. Well see how these turn out tho...but 53-55% rH is a bit low imo...sad

Ah well at least it seems like ive figured out how to dry properly finally. They have way more smell than the jock does too....so im hoping the rH low percentage wont matter too much after a week in jars.

As for trimming, i dont have tons of experience but it seemed maybe slightly easier because you can break some trim off with fingers or flicking motions on fiskars. Or cut it. Wasnt hard. I just hate trimming. Shrubs is right tho guys....whole plant chunks give way better aromatics.

These got slightly overdried and they still have waaaaay more smell than my jock horror did. I jarred it after 4 days and cut tiny pieces to hang for 4 days. This lsd dry was totally different, whole plant chunks minus fan leaves. Next time im running lines and hanging entire plants including fan leaves. Much improved smells!

hey bro, if they are a little to dry u can always toss a (fresh) fan leave or 2 per jar. You won't 'restart' the curing process after it stops, but you can help keep the consistency so u don't end up with powder when you break it down. And thanks for the trimming opinion, I'll have to give it a try when I actually have some space in my life. Dedicating my only walkin to plants has left my gf and I's room full of shit lol and you know how these women are they have atleast 50 pairs of shoes and like 500 shirts hahah

I always thought trimming plants when they are dry really sucks, much easier to do right after chop imo.

WOah, wheres the final wieght?

Glad to hear ya had a successful grow

UPDATE! HASH DAY!

So today I took all my trim out of the deep freeze from my LSD harvest and pulled some bubble hash using my 4 bag set from Payload Extractor Bags:

I followed this methodology: (used mostly hand mixing as that cheap little electric mixer kinda sucked balls..

Here are my results:



5g of the 90 Micron Bubble, 2g of the 73 Micron Bubble, 2.7g of the 25 Micron Bubble!!



THOUGHTS? COMMENTS? IDEAS?

THANKS RIU!

Thanks for the compliments guys! Watch for some hash to be pulled soon. Thinking maybe this weekend. Got tons of trim chillin in the deep freeze right now. Gonna leave it in there to dry for several days than pull bubble hash using my 4-bag payload extractor bag set.

Oh and lumi i had heard that about the buds man. I got a good mix tho. Some very thick some more airy like you say.

Oh and dude..the smells of some of these phenos....got one sativa pheo smells like herbal black licorice. Awesome. And one that smells dieseley almost its unusual for sure...

Most of the indica phenos were typically sweet earthy musky. Not my fav smell truth be had..

Mine now that it is hanging is stinking...really earthy with some citrus trying to compete...strange for sure

Just bought my lifelong scale guys....A&D (ISO 9001 Certified Lab weighing company) ..A&D EJ-2000.

http://www.oldwillknottscales.com/and-newton-ej-2000.aspx


Scale arrives next week. When it gets here, final weight with pics will follow.

This bitch will follow me whereever I go, I will never buy another scale, nor will I ever wonder about cheap headshop piece of shit scale accuracy again either. I can now weigh my harvests IN THEIR CONTAINERS. yes thats right, this isn't your momma's scale that you bought from the local smoke shop whore for $30 that only weighs 100 or 200 grams accurately so you can't put a glass jar on it... Yeah its $230, but it has a 5 year warranty, it can weigh 2100 grams accurately... Thats about 4.64 pounds. That means I don't even have to take my weed out the fucking jars to weigh it. I just weigh an empty jar, tare it, and throw the weed in jars up onto the scale.

Its got a frickin' bubble level in it and adjustable feet. This thing is straight up chemistry lab grade, bad nasty hazardous chemical weighing machine. Super accurate, super take a name and kick an ass type scale. Its got a 5.5" square stainless steel weigh pan. Thats huge and isn't some tiny ass piece of shit pan that is made to weigh coke on...lol.

Its accurate to 0.1 grams, does grams, ounces, pounds, and a bajillion other things I'll never need to weigh (ie Grains, Newton, Troy Ounces, Mommes, Pennyweights? WTF IS a pennyweight? LMAO)..

Anyhow...standard deviation of 0.1 grams. It counts, it can do hanging weights with an underhook. It can output to RS-232 Serial or USB to log data to a PC..it runs on AA batteries or AC Adapter. its pretty retarded. Bought it from a company in Colorado!

Pickedup a 2000gram calibration weight also because it is also fully digitally calibratable using this weight. Awesome!

PS --SomeGuy15 -- I did put some orange peels in the jars for about 6 hours the other day to help re-moisten them as they were a tad on the dry side. It did help and added a hair to that citrusy smell thats present in a few of the phenos.

did you win the lottery or sumptin??? You sure spend lots on this....was looking at the mitsu...too damned rich for my blood....when I can get one with a 5 year warranty for 700 with everything I need for installation and operation with 16 seer heat/cool shipping inclded...my scale costed 10 and goes to .01 grams up to 500 and is dead on testing it with calibration weights...ordered straight from china...lmfao!!!!.you really should look into a good light meter...invaluable...for reals

Not knocking you just wow...you are spending lots on this

Namaste'

Yeah ive had several cheapo scales. They suck imho. Just wanted something higher end. And want one that can weigh multiple pounds accurately at once.

Already got a badass lightmeter. Love it.

The cost? Eh, not that much to me, whatev..im happy i bought it and know itll get good use, so no worries!

cool...will be ordering a uvb meter soon so we will get that portion right and figured out...i love that a good light meter puts all the bs to rest...you know exactly what works and what doesn't and therefore you are also able to always duplicate what does work...marvelous...man that lsd is badass...just smoked a lil fluff bud and am soooooooooooo fucking highhas no ceiling either just keep getting higher and higher...hell yeah

I rolled a huge cone of the LSD last night. Then i took a bit of the 90 micron lsd bubble hash and rolled about a gram and a half od it up into a thin long hash snake. Laid my hash snake in the cone. Added more lsd weed on top and twisted that bitch up. Watched the fighter on blu ray. Loved it! Great smoke too!

hey man. looking great. my one plant is huge. growing in the super soil. 5 gal buckets. same strain. first grow. will be doing subcools qleaner next. just have one plant under 12/12. looking beast. will be putting 4 more under 12/12 in a month. have some seedlings though. does ony one know if I can put them directly in roots organic soil? or would it be too hot?

My LSD is doing great! Been vegging for a month, getting topped today. Still the biggest of the vegging plants (at least the ones I got off Attitude in February.) Qleaner is second biggest...

The LSD has really wide leaves, very short internodes and compared to a number of other strains, it´s branches are better developed. The stem is also the thickest of the small vegging plants. Really looking forward to smoking it

Smoking it will amaze you...this shit is da bomb.....

UPDATE! FINAL WEIGHT DAY!

So today I finally got motivated (been busy!) to setup the new scale which is fucking redic btw... glad I bought it...and weigh the LSD smoke. Drum roll please........................................................................................................................................................................................

FINAL WEIGHT OF DRIED AND CURED LSD: 684g (1 Pound 8.42 ounces).

FINAL WEIGHT OF DRIED AND CURED JOCK HORROR: 98g (3.5 ounces).

TOTAL COMBINED WEIGHT: 782g (1 Pound, 11.9 Ounces).



Not bad at all for my first harvest. Since I was running only the three 400w lamps for flower and wasn't using the flouro panel or other two 400w lamps for flowering, that gives me 1200watts of flowering power and 782grams total.


My grams per watt (g/w) comes out to..........

GRAMS PER WATT: 0.65 g/w


Its been real guys! Thanks for the help and for subbing or checking it out, I had a blast and learned a shitload. Hopefully I will be able to stay in touch with several of you and can connect more in the future. Thanks again!

CONGRATS X! That first harvest is always best!

Congrats! That yield sounds awesome I could never hope to even get close to that with my set up! Is there a smoke review yet?

Nicely done!
