Is that for real? Ive never seen it in person. Now im on a mission to find one of those studs.
Definitely, keep the pollen and make your teas out of that. Might have a little kick. Was thinking about tea you made yesterday a little vanilla pod and some cardamom crushed up for some extra flavor. Let steep in your teapot for a bit.

That sounds nice. I usually brew cannabis tea in a big soup pot. Simmer for at least 30min. I started drinking it regularly again, because im trimming the mothers every other week. They grow fast.

I read somewhere that you got most of your indoor gear sorted out. Thats exciting. When are you expecting to start a grow journal?

Really soon,knocks on wood.. it's just a small closet can fit two three if I push it. Everything I have has been donated from all my friends here. Lights,fans,ph pens,seeds,even a member coming to my house and building out my door. Crazy the generous gestures to get me going. I grow outdoors so I've no idea all this new to me. I started the journal last year after setting up and fried everything three different times not knowing what happened it was because I was trying seedlings under a regular grow light I have hlg 225 watt qb. So now I have t8s for seedlings and just want to throw a coat of kilz for mold prevention. Then hook up this new exhaust it's spiderfarmer with their control. Order some rachet hangers and find flex duct then get germination. This is closet minus the exhaust it's old one when first setup.

Thats a nice amount of space. Its quite fun growing indoors, but like all things, there is always a learning curve.
Our community of growers is awesome. :blsmoke:

Week 8 of 12/12
Tops are looking finished. I will harvest those tomorrow. The rest of the plant will stay in flower for an additional week.

The Amnesia haze is looking nice. Flower structure looks well balanced. The lower branches I pollinated with an Amnesia male. The seed development is on track.

Anyone else noticed that temps increase when the tops/colas are harvested, and the rest of plant is left for lower buds to ripen?

I might have to turn of a light. Temp was floating around 87f. Plants looked a little stressed.

All of the Valley Ice clones have been cut down. Everything turned out good. I really pushed them past the finished line. The whole house stinks. :weed: IMG_20241226_190712004.jpg

I reuse my soil. I will let it sit out for a week so that it dries up completely, then I will break it down and mix it all up in the big tote.

The Amnesia Haze is looking great. I took her out of the tent and tossed her into the living room. She will have to finish on the windowsill.

All the new plants are on veg 18/6 for one week before I flip them. I will start a new grow journal for that. 5 different strains. IMG_20241226_183719649_HDR.jpg

Beautiful setup.

What size tent is that last shot?

Rough trim on some of the finished product. Can you spot the bananas? LOL
Also, the bananas were definitely sterile. No seeds in the crop. @conor c I read somewhere on the forum that a hot soil can cause rhodelization. It seems there were several stressors that caused these plants to throw bananas.

They do say that too much N can help to cause it yeah I see a few "stealth" ones I think there's many things that can help trigger it but it has to be in the genes to happen in the first place as well to be triggered

kush is a great strain-- well known for rodelizing
lineage contributes a lot, and getting to know a plant is fun!
your buds look great man i'm having a great time following along! very exciting harvest if I were u I'd be so hyped!
Depends on the kush if you mean Hindu as in like sensi seeds one then yes but there are literally so many different types of true Hindu kush some will be more stable than others it's just the sensi one most know for the monecy trait I think bud
