Ok so Iām not afraid to say 7.7oz shocked me on the wet weight, I had a goal of 1oz dry being a first time grower, factoring mistakes, this and that so I guess weāll see if what comes as I read up to 75% in weight can be lost in drying and curingā¦.so fingers crossed I hit my goal š¤
I harvested based on the 1st photo, I cut a small piece of bud off the main cola at the bottom to really check it under a scope and saw red headed trichomes, so checked the lowest flower and had the same results (photo 1), this was after Iād asked a question earlier based on a photo I took on a leaf and was advised to check the buds insteadā¦so thanks for that info there š Also a big thanks for the comments the looks at this diary. Really looking forward to the next couple of weeks and seeing how the rest of this little venture pans outā¦I guess we just have to stay tunedšš¤š“ó §ó ¢ó ·ó ¬ó ³ó æ
12 Oct 2021: Harvested
16 Oct 2021: Plant seemed completely dry today which surprised me a little so I snapped stems and yus sir they were ready to be trimmed downā¦.icky sticky, earthy, diesel, piney smells were the hints that were hitting me as I was trimming away, I have a lot of airy buds, which is on me! As a First time grower, until I actually got growing and started to understand the complexity and importance of keeping cannabis growing in stable conditions with par values on lights, feed schedules, trying to keep negative pressure in the tent with passive intake vents, adding lights, humidifier, dehumidifier, more fansā¦a learning experience indeed and not one Iāll be shying away from.
Anyway thereās me blabbing onā¦..dry weight time š 38g/1.3oz and roughly 13g trim so I am extremely happy that even though Iāll probably lose about 8% of this during the cure, I think I made my 1oz goal of smokeable bud š¤šš“ó §ó ¢ó ·ó ¬ó ³ó æ
A smoke report is due in 4 weeks when itās had a bit of time to do what it needs to do!
