# LSD Zamnesia Tripping 🙂 | Drying, Trimming & Final Numbers — Week 15 From Seed First of all… Yes 😄 We are once again dividing the harvest into multiple parts, and we sincerely apologize for that. But honestly, there was simply no realistic way to fit everything properly into a single GrowDiaries update. Between: - harvest photos, - trimming sessions, - macro stacks, - drying process, - preservation methods, - extraction preparation, - washing content, - smoke review material, - and all the little behind-the-scenes moments… …the amount of data collected during this run became massive. And instead of rushing through everything or leaving important parts unexplained, we decided to split the final stages into multiple chapters so every step gets the attention it deserves. Because harvest is not just “cut plant, dry plant, smoke plant.” The final weeks are honestly an entire process on their own. And this week? This week was all about: - drying, - trimming, - preservation, - resin collection, - and finally seeing what these girls truly delivered. For everyone joining now, quick recap: These LSD girls were grown under 12/12 from seed from the very beginning. Minimal intervention. Almost no traditional training. Mostly leaf tucking and gentle bending when needed. The plants grew naturally toward the light while we focused mainly on environmental balance and observation instead of aggressive manipulation. The goal was never maximum optimization. The goal was understanding. And honestly? These girls became absolute monsters anyway. After harvest, the plants that were not frozen for future washing were dried mostly whole instead of being aggressively broken down immediately. We wanted the drying process to happen slowly and naturally to help preserve: - terpenes, - resin quality, - smoothness, - and final flower texture. Drying conditions stayed around: - 18–20°C - approximately 60% humidity And after around 10 days… That beautiful little branch “click” finally arrived. Growers know the sound 😄 Not fully snapping into dust… not bending wet anymore… …that perfect middle point where you know trimming time has officially arrived. And honestly? This is where the room became chaos again 😄 Trim bin ready. Gloves on. Scissors prepared. Mr. Baggy supervising operations as usual. We even gave him a trimming cap so his imaginary hairs would not contaminate the flowers 😄 Safety first. One branch at a time, we slowly started breaking everything down by hand: - separating flowers, - removing excess leaf material, - preserving structure, - checking density, - and admiring the insane amount of frost these girls developed. And wow… These flowers are ridiculously resinous. Not just visually frosty. Sticky frosty. The type where: - scissors stop cooperating, - gloves become glued together, - fingers turn black with resin, - and every few minutes you accidentally create little hash sculptures while trimming. The Zamnesia curved trimming scissors honestly became one of my favorite tools during this process. The pointed curved tips make it incredibly easy to reach deep inside dense flowers without damaging structure too aggressively. And these flowers definitely deserved precision. Dense. Heavy. Compact. Extremely resinous. Some buds honestly felt closer to small rocks than flowers 😄 While trimming, the trim bin also started collecting beautiful material underneath: - tiny trichome heads, - broken resin glands, - small fragments, - and all the golden dusty goodness growers love seeing accumulate slowly over time. And once enough collected… Of course we hand-pressed it 😄 Nothing fancy. No giant machinery. No complicated setup. Just warmth from the hands, gentle pressure, patience, and resin slowly transforming itself into beautiful soft hash. The color came out gorgeous too: light golden, slightly creamy, soft, sticky, and incredibly fragrant. Simple. Traditional. Beautiful. Exactly the kind of small moments that make harvest season special. Now for the final dry numbers so far: Plant A: 287g dry flower Plant B: 107.3g dry flower And it is important to mention: the second plant was NOT harvested fully for flower because a significant portion had already been separated and frozen for future ice-water extraction work. So these numbers do not represent the total biomass produced by that plant. And honestly? We are extremely happy with the results. Especially considering: - the 12/12-from-seed approach, - minimal intervention, - the massive resin production, - the flower density, - and the overall quality expression these girls delivered. The aroma during trimming was unbelievable too. The entire studio became saturated with terpenes: - loud, - greasy, - sweet, - sharp, - complex, - almost offensive in the best possible way 😄 Every movement released more aroma into the room. Every branch smelled alive. And even now during curing, these girls continue evolving beautifully. For preservation, we decided to divide storage between: - Grove Bags, - glass jars, - and a few additional preservation containers. And honestly, this is something we always enjoy testing because curing is never just “put flower somewhere and forget about it.” Different storage methods can slightly influence: - moisture stabilization, - terpene retention, - aroma evolution, - texture, - and long-term aging behavior. Glass jars remain classics for a reason. But Grove Bags are also extremely interesting because they are specifically designed to help stabilize humidity exchange internally without constant burping routines. And over time, comparing these methods becomes part of the fun too. Of course, this is still not the end of the story. Far from it 😄 The next chapters will cover: - frozen material washing, - ice-water extraction, - separation, - resin collection, - drying techniques, - curing updates, - smoke review, - terpene analysis, - and final concentrate results. And honestly… These girls already gave us some absolutely beautiful medicine during washing tests 👀 But we will save those details for the proper extraction update. Mr. Baggy stayed with us through the entire trimming process as always, emotionally supporting operations and probably stealing quality control samples when nobody was looking 😄 And finally… Thank you. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron. To F.O.G. To all the LEDs, gear, and equipment involved. To GrowDiaries. To the community. To the longtime followers. To the new followers. To the silent supporters. To the curious visitors. To the skeptics. To the lovers and the haters 😄 To everyone spending even a few minutes following this strange beautiful plant journey with us. And next week? Things get icy 🌊❄️ Fresh frozen material. Washing. Extraction. Resin separation. And another entire side of this plant still waiting to be explored. Stay safe everyone. Stay curious. And may your scissors always stay sticky 🌱
