dad gum bro, need any help smoking that?
Yup, I sure will.
I trimmmed as much as I could this morning before work, I still have a lot more to go, I think I finished about 3/4 the first plant.... much work ahead. Work I welcome. I hope it takes me two weeks at least so I can start smoking it while I work! :)
Good times! :)
:leaf:
God bless America!

Here's a quick update;

I've begun fine trimming and jarring the buds, I got most of the major fan leaves trimmed over the past week and now as I put them in one quart wide mouth canning jars I'm taking off all the rest of the leaf matter. I'm still saving it in a paper bag to make hash, that's for another day though. I've still got so much left to do (maybe 1/4 jarred) mostly because I don't have many good opportunities to work on it.... that and the fact that I'm not smoking right now. I'd usually be out in the garage, enjoying a pipe in the evenings and morning trimming away just because I'm already right beside it and idle. Since I stopped smoking I think I'm subconsciously keeping myself away from the ounces of sticky sweet bud hanging meat feet from me just to help not tempt me... but these plants have been hanging one week today, its bout time to get things wrapped up. I'd say I have 4-6 more hours of work until I come back with some nice pics of the finished product for everyone... I'm very happy with the quality appearance and amount of resin I'm seeing. I've paid more then 400 dollars an ounce for buds similar to these in the past. Up yours drug dealers and cartels, if it was up to me this poor discriminated against plant would be legal and all you scummy douches using cannabis to fund your wars and buy your IED parts would be ruined. God bless America!

PS ~ a quick pic of some specal kush #1, I'm most excited to try this odd gal out...

its making me drool!
Thanks Barbie, me too.

I'm going to be able to start smoking again this week so I'm pretty stoked to try out the jarred buds. For my situation, I think I'm going to have one hit wonder on my hands.

I find myself having to wash my scissors after every few hours trimming due to resin.... n o t a bad problem to have.

That's what I'm going to start doing! Awesome.

This stuff is awesome. Tried it for the first time today. I'm having way to much fun right now, I'll be back soon with pictures, a smoke report (I haven't even tried the Special Kush #1 yet!) and final weight of everything.

****After-thought when remembering to include any negative. PS - Smell,... where did your stank self go...? I need to perfect curing next, the buds though, wow.

Hi, you think for upgrade from 400w to 600w lamp?

I have in my room the DR100 SecretJardin and CoolTube with 350m3/h in-line vent but I think: 400w or 600w lamp? Thanks for your advice.

Hello my broken English friend, thank you for stopping by, your question is a matter of heat, If you can cool your grow tent to the right range then yes, the more light the better, but if you create too much heat, you will be self defeating...

As for anyone else who has followed this thread; if you are waiting for a final weight then please wait just a while longer,... there is still a small amount that remains untrimmed, I have been very very busy and I only return to this stash when I run dry... I am amazed with this strain and will be considering it again in the future, that is if I have plenty of oder neutralizers on hand....

Here is what I'm going to call the final word on grow #2;

I have smoked a good portion of this grow... it is fantastic... especially the best of it.
You can actually tell a difference in more than just the appearance from the top shelf buds
and the bottom buds, the high is much stronger from the nice fat pretty buds.

This is not 100% accurate but for all intents and purposes it should fit the bill...
I harvested about 8 ounces of cannabis from these 4 plants... about 5.1 ounces of that was jarable
beautiful high grade - what I would call top shelf buds. The rest was thin, wispy but pretty
buds that really didn't have much weight to them but there was still enough to add up.... I've
still got these and the trim from the nice buds all in a paper bag... I don't know what exactly to do with
it... make butter, make hash, I just don't know...
The 8 jars of top shelf buds have been shared and smoked down to about 4 jars.
For some reason I have been enjoying it from worst to best, starting with the lesser buds and working my way
up to the better of my stash. I am enjoy it more and more as I go too. :)

I have had another great learning experience from all of this and now know where I need make improvements
in my processes... the next thing to work on is drying, curing and storing the buds once I grow them. I found a winning process to get it out of the ground, I just need to work on what I should do with it afterwards to keep it smelling the same.


PS- I said I'd be back with pictures, and they are still worthy of taking.... be back with them riu..... i really love you guys and couldn't have done it with out your support and encouragement, a special thanks to everyone who's posted here over the last 10 months. This is but the close of a chapter in a long saga... I will be back with a link to the next installment of TheRuiner's shenanigans ... until then, burn bright soldiers.... see you starside...
