Guerilla Grow 2023

D71. Today, we finally had a break in the rain, so I decided to go and chop the banana girl. I guess I fit the stereotype of a lazy stoner, as I never got around to changing my bike chain that got bent out of shape last week. So I grabbed a couple of pliers and wrestled the chain into shape. Sort of. Considering how wet/humid it has been, I was concerned about mold. My concerns were well founded as I could immediately see mold when I got out into the forest. Upon closer inspection, it wasn't all that bad. Only a few buds were affected. Phew! Looking at her trichomes, it was still a bit early to chop, but I rather chop early than lose even more to mold. I chopped off branch by branch, did a quick and dirty wet trim to reduce their size, and put the branches in airtight containers. I live right above a café and literally have to walk through it to get to my apartment, so it wouldn't be a great idea to have a backpack stinking of a freshly harvested plant. Hence the airtight containers. Normally, I never wet trim, and I mostly hang my plants whole to dry for +14 days at 60% RH. However, I'm a bit pressed for time and must have her dry and jarred in 10-11 days. Smaller branches with a rough wet trim should speed up the process. I have also set the RH to 57%. I realize that terps will take a hit but there's nothing to do about that. Now we wait. ------------------------------
