ya thats not worth trimming. You might as well throw it in a batch of cookies...and note that it's probably not worth planting a winter 'crop' in the future...but whatever - it would be a very decorative houseplant :)

Winter growing is not too bad, just notthe right lighting for an auto that needs 20 hours of light. Either way it was worth a shot. 95% of my ladies for the winter grow did not perform the way I expected, but I just took it as a learning experience :)

Yep, my thoughts exactly. Not even sure if there's enough there to make a batch of cookies - maybe 1/2 a batch.

Yeah, I used a seed I had no interest in - other than experimenting with and to have a plant to watch and grow during the winter. It served it's purpose.

I have the same BBQ. I am growing outside on my balcony in socal too, my plant is big and I let it sit out in the rain and cold. I will probably end up with results similar to yours but it was mostly a learning experience for me. I will prbably go get a plant from the dispensary in april or May and hopefully do better with that one.

The Top 69 was chopped today. I found a budworm in the top of it. Minimal damage, I've got a shot of the piece that was ruined. I'm not sure if it's even possible to completely eliminate these bastards if you grow outdoors in Southern California.

I'm happy with my yield, this is my best so far. No idea what kind of smoke it is since nobody has ever reported on it, but I'll let you know soon.

This time I'm going to save the small leaves that are covered in trichs. Perhaps save them for a few grows and make butter, oil or whatever.
I hate to bum rush a thread but I have to comment on this Top 69. Its a cross of Northern Lights and ruderalis! At least thats what the guy at Advanced said. I have one coming up its on 33 days and I hope to god it turns out like the ones you have here.....

Honestly, it is not a very potent strain, and the buds were small and airy. I won't grow another one. But I hope you enjoy the outcome of yours. Best of luck.

I've been smoking the Kandy Kush exclusively ever since it was ready. That may be the nicest pot I've ever smoked. Tonight, however, I broke out the Diesel Ryder that is now 6 months old. Not sure when you go from the "curing" stage to the "storage" stage. Either way, it is an excellent smoke and I will grow more of it this season. Nice heady social high.

I'm going to plant some seeds within a week or so. It's time.

whatsup Pablo!!! I'm back again with another balcony grow, too! Hope mine turn out better, but already people are telling me they're going to reveg (like what happened last year)... so hopefully I can curb that! Did you plant your seeds?

Hey man, good to see you're back. I just started 3 auto seeds I got as freebies from Attitude. 2 just popped, so I'll plant them today.

Short Stuff Onyx, Short Stuff Super Cali Haze and Kannabia Mataro Blue

I'll probably start another separate journal and let this one die. Good luck this season!

Any Reg seeds?
