hey man ... thanks for your thoughts. yea I appreciated going through that too, swollen calyxes, red hair, receding caylxes, trichome colour, leaves dying off ... the whole package together .... very cool info .... walk on!!~~~:joint::joint::joint::joint::joint:
Wow nice. Thanks. "pistils receding back into the buds"! I know I cut a little early, and one of the things I don't like about the way my headband looks is it is very hairy (KT not so much). I got lots of finished bud, so maybe I will wait longer to see them recede!

I decided that it would be worthwhile for me to go back to the last time I grew these top44. The seed batch is the same, but thats about it, different seed, different pheno, different growth history .... so what's the comparison? At this point, I'm just trying to remind myself what they looked like when they finished up that time .... and therefore possibly judge a little better when they might be finishing this time. These are three pics of some of the main buds taken off the top44 I last grew and side-by-each with this years ....

Some these are last years .....








And , this years ...... still waiting ....

Hot damn Tahoe, that's the shit right there!! Mmmmnnnnn......I can almost smell it!!!! Wish I could taste it!! The only thing I might say with your comparison pics is the first ones look like they might have a higher calyx to leaf ratio, but if it's the same strain, maybe the difference is just in the maturity of the buds. Dunno. Either way my friend, I think you've got a winning strain there. Keep it goin!!! :peace:

hey man ... many thanks for dropping by ... yea ... I am thinking the same ..... I really just have to wait and let them fill up fully-completely. I just went and took a quick look in the "flesh" and yea ... they now appear very young by comparison ... white hairs and new calyxes popping out all over the place .... I just have to wait ..... I took a refresher in maturity and must remind myself that there are several collaborating factors to help one assess and evaluate maturity - trichomes (clear-cloudy-amber); retreating red hairs, dying leaves, swollen calyxes ..... and in thinking about that I think I might still even have been a little early with last yar's. No matter I enjoyed that smoke for more than a year :hump:

Wow...separately this years look much more mature, but compared to last years, there is a big difference.

I also see where maybe the hairs had not retreated enough in last years harvest...very interesting stuff. Thanks Gypsybush for the sprucezeus ripeness link.

mister Ray .... excellent. Many many thanks for your visit. Please do come back and join us regularly - we're always trying to play some silly games or maybe even turn on someone unexpectedly ... and give them the bumps ...even when its not their birthday, hahahaha! . There are always chairs in the room somewhere to plop down and relax. If there's no room .... well then we'll just have to kick out some of the non=participating patron, now won't we?

Just a little guidance for you, there pop and juice, coffee, tea, cookies over on the corner table. There are also ample tissue boxes around the room for those that need something to tend to outpouring of emotions .... hahahaha .... of varied kind .... still no hot chocolate .... but I think mr.Westie is over that .... he went down the street. We're fixing to set up an espresson bar and serve spiced wine and hot rum toddies as well. Oh and that big friggin looking military fridge over there ... that for the BEER!! hahahaha!

I welcome all comments and questions .... its pretty much whatever you want to make of it .... oh oh oh ... and bongs, pipes and stashes ....MUST be left at the door. We have our own RoomSupply so feel free. The smoke is on the house!!

Walking On!!~~:peace:

I don't know if it just me .... well I know it is not just me .... the top44 girl has sorta stopped drinking .... not entirely ....but certainly slowed down dramatically. It started with yesterdays observation that typical dryness was not achieved in the same time period ...could I be watering more and not realizing it? I don't think so ....but I'm sure I've been wrong before ... hehehehehe.

Anyhow, I am gonna keep tabs on this cuz I can't remember if my girls shutdown like this last time? Could it be that I am in for some other unrelated and mispercieved problem?

And just to keep me guessing, it would seem that the Vortex and the BlackDomina:wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall: are both looking very ballsy .... fuk thats a whole pak of BD from Sensi into the trash .... what a fukin waste of time I made of that ..... oh well, you play the cards you're dealt .... Walking On!!~~~

And walking straight over to a MissMystery and DairyQueen that might just be the saviours of my soul with aweosme genetics and some luck, I'll have me some very serious buddage. :peace::peace::peace:

Damn sorry about the BD and the vortex. My oldest also slows down drinking, but it seems to be a little cyclical...sometimes another push of new growth pics it back up.
