thanks guys, it's cool... i really think they would have matured more by now if i hadn't let them lose all their fan leaves, but that's okay, the quickdried samples i've had have been great, very up high, which is what i wanted, and it's definitely better than the original weed it came from. hopefully after drying and curing, it'll only get better...
it sure looks like i have a decent amount of bud... we'll see what happens after it dries. the last time they were watered was about a week ago... that's just because it took a long time for the soil to dry out. i think the plants just didn't seem to be drinking much... probably because of the lack of solar panels, but who knows. things will be run much differently next time, because i have learned so much with this grow, which was my goal with the bagseed
here's a couple more pics, the first shows what minnie yielded...
and here's a view of all of the buds hanging...
you know, i thought people were crazy when they said how tiring it is to manicure their buds, but it really was pretty intense... can't believe how many hours it took. the scissors get so gummy lol
so, i definitely didn't get to the other stuff i was going to do today. ...it's kinda late, but maybe i'll get some seeds germing now. who knows how much this is going to be dry. i know it looks like way more right now than it will end up, but that's okay, i can't believe i finally made it to this point!! i'm not usually great with following things through to the end, but i think keeping this journal made a difference, because i have had help from many excellent people on this forum- so to all of you, thanks for letting me stand on your shoulders a bit.
alright... so i guess i sit tight for about a week, and keep my eyes on the buds for mold... gotta research what the warning signs are, so if i see a problem, i can fix it before they go beyond the point of no return.
