Thanks bill. I still have the harvest to trim from the other grow too. All leaf left in as I was unwell. I keep looking in the drying box and avoiding the trim as EVERYTHING was left on and now curled and discoloured so cant leave it in or out looks poor quality. Thankfully this one has had a head start on the trim. Lol. Thanks for the positive vibes brother. Have a brilliant 2022.

Fanks shiela. Lol. Hoping for some crunchy nugs of joy after the cure. Trim jail is my sentence now for a bit. Then this one will need trimming too. Hard work when I am sampling the goods too. Heehee.

HI , I AM STILL ALIVE !!. lol
Sorry been absent a while but time has been a very rare commodity in the clan. I have allowed these ladies to dry very slowly in the nice and cool roof space now and did trim them a little before the hanging so they are not too leafy to trim but are the small sugar leaves that have curled under , this has made a hand picking of the small , curled , crunchy gits , hard going...
With another yield that needed trimming too , I have left them a week or two longer than I planned. It has not done them any disservice besides a lowering of the terpene profiles. I expect this to return during their jarring time as it has on the crop just previously finished. I spent the last few days finishing the trimming on the second of the Six Shooter ladies , #1. They were both good growers and the slight difference between the two final yields compared to the size they finished at is not that different . As the 1st of these harvested and trimmed up , I am stoked at the quality and overall appeal of these girls. They have a definite potency that has caught me out during the sampling over the week too. The nugs are nice and tight but not compacted and really show the thc off now.
I am happy with the yield for these 1st 2 girls with a decent 3oz on #1 and 2.5oz from # 2 of great looking and effective bud. I have the Mexican airline to do next and the Strawberry Pie after that over the coming few days. Watch this space!!!!

Keeping me very calm and quiet. Lol taking forever to do anything too. Driving mrs nuts. Doh !... nearly there now thankfullly and a short break before joining the fun again. Just the Strawberry pie to trim and weigh over the weekend now the Mexican airline is jarred ( update following. Lol ) thanks for the positves. Have a great 2022..
 
HI all. I am glad to say that another 2 plants are trimmed weighed and jarred for some potent cure time. The Mexican airline has been a pain in the ass to trim dry!!!. So many ice covered tiny sugar leaves that needed to be removed or at worse , trimmed right in. The buds are really sexy looking nugs of sugar now and look so filthy that I couldn't wait to pipe a bowl as I started to trim. An hour later when I realised i had done nothing but rearrange the cut stems in the box for trimming into size order , i knew the potency was good too !!!!!. Lol
When I finished finally trimming and weighed them all , I had 87.08 (3.11oz) of these killer looking jewels. I expected a little less sue to the slow start from the #1 lady so am not disappointed with that at all. What I do have is a quality looking batch of fun and dribble inducing Ganja. Happy days.

I am trimming off the stars of the grow over the weekend and expect their yield to be very good. The Strawberry are a perfect dry now and.like the others , look amazing. Some very nice colours among the buds too. Update will follow as soon as I have them finished up. It has beena long growing run and I am missing tending plants already but I will need a short break to reevaluate my future growing and how best to proceed. Thanks for the support and many positive vibes shared here. It has been a pleasure . Until the next one, be safe and well.

Ah fanks T. Finally at an end for this one with the last trim done and jarred. Glad you rode with me the whole journey T . Been a fun one. Autos are a blast.
 
WELL WE HAVE MADE IT !.
A final yield and a welcome end to a very long run for me. Started by a couple of other grows in auto and then continue as this diary from June last year. I have had so.e great results along the way and I can honestly say that autism are a great way to automate a nice perpetual system. Being able to pop a seed and part way through its flowering cycle , pop a replacement in to follow on . I had around 4 weeks gap between each run of plants starting. The only issue that seemed to be hard to get bang on was the Relative Humidity. Having different needs during their cycles was a concern initially but the more of a vigilant effort to keep on top of moisture levels in flower. I am so happy to have finished on these Strawberry Pie autos too. They finished perfect as plants in full flower but the long and very slow drying time has created solid , crystal covered nugs that have a very nice heavy feel to them from oil. Their aesthetic appeal is top notch too with nice distinctive colours of orange ect down their bud structures. It has a very nice fruity liquorice terpenes at present and I am intrigued to see what a week curing does for them . The buds are a really nice size after removing them from the stalks with only a few being small enough to be near popcorn. I am glad i did a little scrub removal and opened the plants up early in flower now as their trim was not as bad as the others i have recently done. So without too much rattle , heres the figures for the final harvest of this epic run.
Strawberry Pie auto x2
14 weeks total growing time
1 week seedling
4 weeks Veg
9 weeks Flowering
4 weeks low and slow drying
Total yield : 241g ( 8.6oz) .
I did expect these girls to be the stars of the show with such a huge growth rate but what a great finish !!!!!.
Without the pics it's just words so heres some eye candy/bud porn to sweeten the read.

I had to weigh in matches during to small scales but I am so happy with that yield and the quality of the buds. I want to thank everyone for your amazing support for such a long journey and the many spk sorts who have helped with seeds/lights. What a lucky fella I have been at 420. Inam by no means done but do need to stop for a short time while I rejig my growing and time. Being the sole carer while my wife works and studies has proven very time consuming to say the least, my 3 under 7 keep menoccupied and a teen who thinks she is 25 adds another layer to the busy life.lol. I have so e great testers to run too so any downtime will be a killer for me too. Again thank you all for your support and I hope 2022 is an amazing year for us all
Be safe and well my 420 fam
 
Well done Ganjagranddaddy! Congrats on the harvest, you can certainly take a little time out now to enjoy it!
