Well, Well Well.... Guess what I did today..... Harvested!!!!!! weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!
First off... I want to sincerely thank everyone for all of their sage advice and help... especially the Skoots.... I really appreciate it my friends. I would have been fucked without you guys.... thank you very much!
After flushing for 7 days it was time..... I had a lot of small buds and about 20 decent sized ones (about 9" long)... took 2 hours to trim them which I probably shouldn't have done.
Lessons learned.....
1 - trimming the bottom branches would have been a good idea. I got a lot of small buds. Also it would have made it a lot easier to inspect the plants in the back.
2 - Temperature control.... too damn cold in there.
3 - Moisture control... found some rotted buds (brown) and some with mold (only about 6 small ones). there are definitely issues with growing in a Motorhome in the winter. Even though I did insulate it with OSB and sound board (sealing it up with spray foam in the gaps). Im hoping I have fixed these issues... After the plants were removed I added some bubble wrap to an old storage box that was built into the MH.... I made a filter box for fresh air with it and I wish I hadnt. It takes up a lot of room and was really letting a lot of cold in. Hopefully that is solved now. some of the buds that were touching the sheet metal of the box were brown... I think from being too cold.
4 - Staking.... The plants started drooping about 6 weeks ago and I just let them go. It wasn't disastrous but I think I would have had better buds if I got more of them standing up.
Now there are 15 more in flowering and 18 more going into vegging tomorrow. Ill be waitng about 2 - 4 weeks before starting another batch of seedlings.
Thanks again everyone for all of your encouragement and advice!
