Looks like the stuff I'm drying is a little further along then I thought. I did a test on the smaller colas and I got a good snap so I snagged those and got them in a jar. The three large ones need to go a little more but this is what I got so far.




You can see I left some of the sugar leaf, lots of trichs.





Oh, and I went and got jars today. Left the giant on the shelf though. went with one gallon square ones with the large opening, someone suggested these a while back, I forgot who but I got a look and liked them. I picked up a couple 1/2 gallon to match what I already had.





There is 3.5 OZ's in that jar now and I got about another inch so it will do a QP just fine. Guess I was short on my estimate caue I got three big colas left.

Heres a good example of the difference in size. There about the same height as what I been using but wider and I bet easier to unload.

that a boy cruz. i knew there was more than 3 zips there. and yes you are right with the cold water workin for plants to fight the heat and warm water to fight the cold.

Lucky hell, that's earned! You watched all the ups and downs he has gone through, and still going through, to get all those buds. But he sure has got a lot of vitamin D this summer :)

Thanks everyone, the fun is just beginning. I went ahead and trimmed those last colas, got another 1.5 oz's figure they are mostly dry anyway. So for little Santa Cruz OG we got 5 OZ's of sweet little nugs. Sorry Cheese, I was closer.

Bubba's next on the block.
After I get her hung how about we all guess on the final weight, who ever is closest gets an 1/8th.
I'm gonna guess too but if I win I will roll it all up in one fat doob and take a video burning it for ya.
If you win I'd have to mail it to you so I would need you to pm an address, your screen name would be cool though.

She will hang for a week so any guess that comes in before I weigh it is valid. I will assume we are all patients and this is cool. I cant think of any other rules so, wadda ya say, You in?

lemme seee... I know squat about estimating yields but looking at the pics of the Bubba & considering it is in the rafters (lol) I'll say 11.75 oz for The Bubba. Dunno how many grams that is but that's my uneducated guess.
I'm loving watching your greenhouse grow, I am glad it has worked out. I'm still, in the planning stages, still! though it's all in my mind I haven't started any sketches or anything. Tho only problem I can foresee is running power. Our house is older & the box isn't up to current code so any electrician is gonna say we gotta bring it up to code first. Yah it needs it so maybe I'll start with getting some estimates on that first. Then just have them set me up with what I need to expand into the greenhouse.

I thought about vegging out there but I dont want the attention a light might bring. I got a cab to veg in and started some but I lost them. Paying more attention to the big girls I guess. I can get good size clones, like 15 to 18 inches for $20 in 4 in rockwool cubes and I figure thats about the size I want to start flowering at for winter grows. so thats what I'm gonna do. Then Im not sure what type but I want to try hydro, it will get them bigger faster and maybe it will be eaiser to warm the water then the soil and the whole greenhouse. I know by cooling the water plants can withstand higher temps why not the other way around.


I've heard about this before as long as the roots are warm the plant will still grow the leaves will turn all purple and apparently the plant will produce a lot more resin as the resin is protection from cold that's what i've heard.

"down like four flats on a cadillac" Ha! I like that one. Cool man.

You got it bud. Yea, its one of the few times I'm happy when I'm wrong.

I think you may be pretty close. I'll except that as your guess unless you want to change it after seeing it hung. Yea, service panels are one thing I don't mess with. I dont mind changing out a breaker but to wire it? IDK it seems simple enough but I just dont want to take a chance there. Maybe check craigslist, lotsa guys out of work now. To replace a service panel I think your looking at about $1500. just a guess but thats what I charged on one job.

almost forgot where did you find those large square jars? I could use some of those, lol
The Container store. They are online too.

Yea, thats what I have heard too. Guess we will find out.

how about we just trade 8ths lol
Sure, take the easy way out. ;-)

From what I understand we are in for a bit of a heat wave, temps are suppose to hit the low 90's
Could have fooled me, I got up a little earlier this morning and checked temp and humidity, at 7:00 AM it was 50° and 89% humidity. Not a could in the sky. So if it hits 90 today thats a 30° swing from night to day. Im sure the humidity will drop once the condensation drys up but its got me thinking about mold.

you got all your fans going though, right? i know that will only help so much. maybe setup the AC to run, since AC's are really dehumidifiers, in the high humidity hours. i dont know if you can just turn it on without it cooling it down too much though.

No I don't run the fans at night. That wouldn't be a bad idea to have a couple go all night, or at least start earlier.

Check it out, I took a shot of my biggest stalk. Blue Cheese.



I didnt think it was gonna get any bigger but it did.
