Getting to the end of this little journal even though I'm still running this another cycle but it'll be like watching reruns. I'll post final harvest pics next week.the 4 on the right are the keeper pheno for nl5. Going to keep one for a serial mom and flower the rest while I figure out what's next.

At least they waited until the end of flower.

Did you order your trimmer yet?

Congrats on a great harvest! Can't wait to hear how the NL#2 smokes. I'm chopping mine in a week or so.

Trimming day. Bought an electric trimmer which took a little time to become familiar with. It definitely handles large buds well. But I've decided all the topping and supercropping I did was counterproductive, for me anyway. Lots of tops but lots of popcorn and larf underneath. Next run I'm going back to topping once and let her rip. My curiousity is satisfied anyway

590g of NL5 to add to the 77g of NL2.ItIt may lose a little weight over the next day or two. I've spread it out on the (cleaned) floor of my tent because the smell has taken over the house lol. Cranked the inline fan up to 10

Going to veg these for a bit, take some cuttings and flip to flower when they get a bit bigger. Keeping the little one for insurance. Now narrowed down to a single pheno of the NL5 going forward.

A reasonable question. I like to show everything in my journals, the good, the bad, the indifferent. If I learn something new either through a mistake or a eureka moment I hope others can learn from it too. That nana'd bud is an awesome diagnostic image for someone who might be wondering about what they are seeing in their own plants.

This is my 8th grow journal in 15 years on RIU. I am just thankful the earliest ones are mostly broken now!
