Really hard to tell but looks like between 600-800 grams....

I hope you are wrong, but you would be the one that could tell if anyone. The buds are pretty dense so I am hoping to have close to 1000 gms. I did weigh that first plant I trimmed wet with stems on and it was 1lb 1/3 ounce. I was hoping to end up with a 1/10th of that weight which would put me close to two pounds for 12 plants.

Nice. One step closer. Your gonna have some good hash there to. So you cut all the fan leaves and trim and manicure them before you dry? I am new thats why i ask, still learning about drying, manicure and cure part of growing. I want to know the best steps after harvesting to maximize potency.

Raider those buds look tasty

I trimmed wet, yes. I have heard a lot of opinions on the best way to trim and dry. I decided to trim, dry, and then I will cure for 2-4 weeks in jars burping for the first couple of weeks. My buddy takes off the large fans, hangs the whole plant to dry and then trims dry. I will trim those pocorn buds dry, so I can see the difference, but I can't imagine getting those little leaves out of the buds after they are dry.
One thing about trimming wet is it is stinky and sticky. I can't get the smell out of the house yet, I think it soaked into the paint. lol jk

I have been reading and searching google and forums all day and the way you are doing it seems to be the overall consensus So i think i will follow that way to. I cant wait to hear how it smokes when your completely done curing bongsmilie. Just remember to keep them in the absolute darkness and almost no light at all. Sorry i just heard the light and heat can be very bad during the stage.

LOL good luck on deodorizing your place:grin:

Yeah it is 65 deg and 45% hum, with slight airflow. I can't wait either, but man what a job cleaning out the room.

Sounds like you will deff be ready for next round. The only thing i worry about is knowing if they are too dry or not dry enough.

FYI-
I started journal for the next round. It is the green link. The girls are much bigger than my last girls were when I switched.
Oh, if anyone knows how to name the link, please do tell.:bigjoint:

what you do is write what you want:

"raiders grow"

then highlight those words and then press the

button... a little window will pop up...in that window enter the web address:

I don't own photo shop. I do have windows picture editor that allows me to adjust the brightness and contrast. I do adjust the contrast on some if they are too dark or light and sometimes the brightness. My avatar though is un-adjusted, it was a side bud, so the camera wasn't under the lights..Dude when I trimmed these there were fans bigger than my face that were all dark purple..no green on them.:weed: You can't really tell how purple they were under the hps.

If you didn't know how to do your sig links... I would love to watch you try to alter a photo in photo-shop. That shit is impossible.

Excellent work on all that Raiderfan. Beuatiful beautiful buds. Maybe I'll make it up there, see if you like my Casey Jones. I miss smoking Purple Kush. :sad:

When do the scales come out? :bigjoint:
