Alrighty! All done trimming! We'll I was done earlier this afternoon but needed some time to chill. I really tried hard to just get into a groove and enjoy the process of trimming. It can become so tedious and it is particularly taxing for me at times. Just did my best to ignore it, listen to some good jams, medicate, and start having fun with the flowers I worked so hard to grow.
It still bums me our how quickly they dried out in the tent. I feel like I let them go 1 or 2 days too long. So lost a lot of terpenes and potential...again. This is a frustrating part for me.
After I finished the Candida yesterday, I moved on to the Cinderella 99.
She was grown in 7 gallon

Had a little test vape and it was decent. Got me elevated for the little amount I vaped. Unfortunately, it seems I lost a lot of terpenes. So I'm going to hope and wait for the next few weeks to see if the burping & cure will help that in any way.
I ended up with 176 g/6.2 oz
Some scissor hash.
Next up was Space Queen! She was droughted consistently with a wet/dry cycle. Her aroma was/is by far the loudest of the bunch too! A distinct pineapple candy profile! Knowing I dehydrated her as much as I did and still have this loud of a terpene profile, makes me wonder what she would have smelled like if kept with more moisture.
She's still got some frost.
Half way through the pile!
All done and I have no idea why my color balance is so off in between photos.
Ended up with 123 g/4.3 oz
Used this trim to make a batch of infused MCT oil. Some of it is overly dried fan leaves with little to no value for an infusion, but I didn't feel like being overly picky while I sorted through it. Long story short...it got me lit!
Her skeleton. She was untrained.
So that's where I left off yesterday. I turned up my humidifier by 10% for the remaining two plants, Rosetta Stone and Queen of Soul.
So today, I started with Rosetta Stone! She was the driest of the bunch and I believe harvested 7-10 days too early. But I plan on running her again to full term. At one point, I was the most excited about her. When she started getting stressed, she lost a lot of her beauty and aroma. Never got it back. So we'll see what she produces after the burp and cure.
She produced a lot of beautiful spears. They were all light and fluffy. Not anywhere near as dense as they should have been. Definitely underwatered her when she needed it the most.
Rosetta Stone produced 125 g/4.4 oz of buds and spears. My hope is that they will still be worthwhile buds. If they cure nice and smoke good, then I'll be gifting spears to some friends.
Started the process of decarbing the trim material. My preferred method is using the Ardent Nova. I can only do a little bit at a time, but I get the most consistent decarbs with this device.
Lastly...
A crispy and completely overly dried Queen of Soul

Ended up with 154 g/5.4 oz
This is the kief collected, excluding the Candida. I didn't weigh it but it's not the cleanest. It definitely had impurities. My plan is to press it for rosin.
That's it folks!!! Just over 20 oz from the THC plants! Now to try to remember to burp jars AND put the lids back on before leaving the house.
I appreciate you following along with me 420 Mag Fam. I'm beat and don't have much left in the tank. Happy 4th of July!
