Pheno Hunt

Harvested the True OG today (sunday). I knew it wasn’t going to be a yielder early on, which is the reason I chose not to continue that strain any further. Tricombs are about 15 percent amber at 60 days of flower. While cutting, I also noticed a few nanners (luckily under the canopy) and one poofed on me. I’m not worried about it tho as they’re all about to harvest at different times over the next 14 days anyways. I’ll just spray everything with water and wipe it all down before the start of the next flowering cycle to kill anything that may have blown anywhere. I hope that do not find any more on others. I don’t have a set drying space, so each time I just kinda make one with whatever materials I have laying around. In this case, I have a roll of 24” paper from my wide format epson printer that I’ll probably never use again. I basically doubled it up and taped it to my desk like a box. To keep the air fresh and circulating, I use the intake of my grow tent to pull the air and smell into the tent, maintaining negative pressure and passing through the carbon filter. The paper absorbs some of the moisture and the bud dries nicely in about 4-6 days. I’m not worried too much about light through the white paper, as its not very bright in my room anyways, but if you decide to do something similar, you could probably use black or something thicker like cardboard or poster board. I’m pretty lax with trimming, mostly just removing water leaves and tips. There’s no need for me to get over technical with trimming. It’s easy to snip off the big stuff before jarring and the small stuff when breaking it up to smoke. I don’t even waste my time with most of the small and airy nugs. I’ll just take the bigger colas and hang those, leaving the rest on my Raw tray to dry in my box for edibles. My hangers aren’t pretty, but they’re easy and help organization in a small space with multiple strains. I also started trimming the bottoms of the Kush Cookies, Critical, GP, and Pineapple before the lights went out earlier to get a head start because I plan to harvest those sometime around Wednesday. The three KiwiSkunk phenos and Blue Dream both need about 1 - 2 weeks beyond that to finish up. - I cut the Critical Kush down today (Monday). The higher yield obviously took more time than the True OG to trim and looks to be an ok harvest. It’s been really cold lately out of nowhere so it may add a day to the dry time, but i’m not concerned. The pineapple will be the next to go, most likely Wednesday, which will be day 63. - Cookies, GP, and Pineapple all came down today (wednesday). Cookies is a hardy plant, but seems average to say the least. We’ll have to see what a cure does. It will go head to head against the only other remaining kush cookies pheno in the next grow, but I hypothesize it will most likely end there for the so called “cup winning” strain. Granny panties smells the way i hope granny panties would smell like. she’s nicely frosted, but he buds are pretty fluffy. it also wasn’t a big yielder although it took longer for that one to hit the hempy rez. Either way, she’s safe for now and will move on to the next round. The last one to come out today was the pineapple chunk. another super hardy plant with nice stalks and strong branches. Has the potential to be a good yielder with longer veg time. The three remaining kiwi skunk phenos look totally different from each other and still need a bit more time to ripen up.
