Ganja Farmer Blue Dream Auto

👉Many thanks to Ganja Farmer for sponsoring this contest. Everyone that got seeds is a winner. Its very generous for a company in Poland to send seeds around the world for us lucky stoners here on Grow Diaries. I am personally very grateful for getting the opportunity to grow a plant that turned out awesome. I still have some seeds from them to grow and look forward to growing those in the future. 👉The plant grew with almost no nutrient issues showing up. The plant was a short squatty bush with large pine cone buds. The Queen wasn’t much taller than the rest of the plant and the plant made its own nice canopy. There were 23 good big buds. Very leafy, but not many sugar leaves on the buds. There was only a handful of secondary buds. There was no popcorn sized buds but a fair amount of larfy buds under the main colas on each branch. The main colas on each brand were dense, frost covered pine cones. The buds below each branches main cola were not as developed and I put them in the larf category. None of the larf weight is included in the weights entered. The larf will be used for making bubble hash and tincture. 👉When I harvested I started with the queen cola and worked my way down over the course of a week. There weren’t many sugar leaves and that made harvesting fairly easy. Not doing the whole plant at one time also made trim purgatory go rather easy. The plant had the typical stanky fuck aroma before harvesting. When trimming the buds the aroma elevated to super sweet stanky funk. I hung each large cola with a clothes pin then hung on a clothes drying rack. I would put the each bud in its own small paper sack after 24hrs. I used indirect air circulation via a 36” tower fan. I put a letter on the clothes pin that was on each cola. I recorded the wet weight of each cola. I monitored the weight of each cola and when it was approximately 25% of original weight or less I would put in the jars. The room was about 75F or less with 45% humidity, the 6” exhaust fan was set to low (exhausts outside). It took 16 days for all jars to reach 62% humidity or less. The average time to dry to the target dry weight was7 days per cola. It would take an additional 6-7 days to have 62% humidity. I am not putting humidity packs in the jars. The humidity is stable in the sealed jars. I also label each jar so I know where on the plant it comes from. I have been doing this for a while and like to see if differences exist from different areas of the plant. The jar aroma at the 62% level is sweet and mildly fruity at the moment. I expect that by the 6 week mark the aroma will become more berry-esc.

👉The longer the dried buds are in the jar the better the aroma and taste is, fruity berry with stanky pine. A nice quick sativa buzz that isn’t quite as intense as a pure sativa rush, is very pleasant and smile producing. The buzz lasts forever and doesn’t keep me awake if I partake close to crash o’clock.
