Thanks for the input guys. Unfortunately, I can't harvest any sooner than Friday. I'm just going to shut off a couple of the top lights, since I have 8 CFLs up there (i will reduce to 4). Things should be fine though. Harvest = 72 hours!!!!
 
Turning the top lights off might be a good idea, but if I were in your shoes, where I had to wait until Friday for some reason, I think this would be the perfect chance to try the days of darkness before harvest thing. Maybe shut the lights off for good tonight, wake up early friday and harvest. Supposedly the plant thinks it's dying and the flowers suck up every last bit of trichomes, plus there is no light or heat to degrade the existing trichomes.

But whatever you decide, I have enjoyed this journal! Keep it up.
 
Sounds good chipp i harvested mines already.It looks like 2oz dry weight.Wait a couple more days to give the weight and pics of the buds.

Thanks for the input guys. I've got my fingers crossed for 2oz + of cured bud, with enough trim to make some nice butter!

mike, that is exactly what I'm going to do. I put her into a deep sleep now until harvest. So, this is about 42 hours of darkness before harvest. I had to give her a bit of water (like... 1.5 litres) because she was very dry and a tad wilty, and I wanted her to have a bit of water to keep her going for the next 2 days.

Day 69:

42 hours from now I harvest. Hazel is in complete darkness from just now until then. I'm excited as shit. I've got no pics worth showing tonight really. She looks the same as she did a few days ago.

Come harvest, I'll take a bunch of pics of my trimmed bud/drying setup/etc. I'll do a final weigh-in after 3-4 days hang dried + 2-3 days paper bag-dry + a couple days curing. After that weigh-in, I'll put them back in glass jars to cure for another 2 weeks, making sure to burp and keep my moisture levels nice. Expect a smoke (vape) report once the curing is completed - I don't want to test her out premature!

My next post will be about the harvest. Ohhhh shit!
 
I checked out your journal widow, and you had 3 plants going at least, and they were not nearly as bushy as hazel. I don't think the yields will be the same, chipp. I just went to previous pages to check out the pictures of hazel. It's hard to estimate based on one picture, but I think hazel will yield 60-100 grams
 
looks can be decieving my freind.I got a shitty camera on my G1 so there was no zooming in.But i can tell you from experience that my plant got 2oz or more for sure.Also I was focusing on main colas not side branches.

Nice journal Chipp. I subscribed to see the outcome this friday! You said you got those seeds through greenhouse? I was considering getting some of the mix seeds from there but wasnt sure on their quality. From your grow, looks like they are pretty damn good! MIght order after all - just paranoid of course. Did you order them directly from greenhouse or attitude?

I got the seeds from attitude. Shipping to Canada (stealth, but maybe not necessary ) was super fast. I haven't had a dud seed yet. I'll let you know how the harvest goes!!!

Awesome, thanks for the info. What do you have planned for your next grow? :)

I don't know! In my little grow box, I will probably do 4 plants next time, but they will be quite small, as I need them to be harvested a week before Christmas. I've got "The Church" from GHS, and some other freebies from when I ordered my SLH. I'll probably just grow The Church, and some more SLH. Not sure though man - when I figure it out I'll let you guys know!

Also, I went overboard and made a neat little label for my personal stash jar. I'm posting it just for shits (clearly I've got nothing better to do tonight, since I'm anxious to harvest!)

F n awesome mate. I hope ,ine is as nice as ur baby. Im still a few weeks behind u but good grow and journal man. Whats planned next. Its time now to start,lol
 
I think it's funny how much I seem to have in common with you chipp. I've been reading and you sound like me, lol. Craploads of research, overanalyzed grow, you're worried about all the details and yet still excited like a little chilld. God bless marijuana :-)

Haha miketool, that's pretty much how I go about it! Maybe it's the engineer in my blood ;)


Harvest!!!

121 days from seed to harvest. Not bad! I chopped her down Friday, trimmed up all the buds (took quite a while), placed all my trim in paper trays, and tossed all the trimmings that I didn't need (most fan leaves, etc). All of the buds are hanging in the grow box now just drying. Here a some pictures I took during the chop. I'll post again once the buds are dry enough to put in jars to cure, and I will do a weigh-in sometime around there.


Also, the light shining on the buds was turned off after I took the pics...
