Carcass' $150 Low Budget Grow 2019

[BooWho2]

Congrats on the harvests Carcass! That GSC is simply stunning. I can’t wait to see what she looks like in the end. I’ve grown a couple of DDAs and I love the smoke. I don‘t get super high (like with the GSC), but the high is like a 3D-type of high. Everything is really clear and crisp in my mind and I swear my eyesight gets better too!

 

[HashGirl]

I'd have to concur with Boo. It's definitely a cerebral high. It's an okay strain to get things done. However, in my opinion, the smoke is average.

For the same type of high, I can take Carnival, which is even more like this than the DDa. And, since Carnival is a photo, I get a bigger yield, too.

And, Big Devil XL is a photo, too and it's one of the parents of Dark Devil and will be my go to strain of this type going forward.

 

[Carcass]

My son and his friends only wanna smoke the dense stuff even though it all grinds the same.

I'll definitely give the fluffy stuff a smoke before committing it all to gummies- I've been pleasantly surprised by ugly weed before...

. I’ve grown a couple of DDAs and I love the smoke.

To be honest, I prefer the milder stuff, so it sounds like it'll be right up my alley....

However, in my opinion, the smoke is average.

Average is just fine with me, HG...I've got a little nuggie drying so I can give it a try tonight- I usually wait till after curing to sample stuff, but this DDa really has me curious...

Congrats on the DDA harvest!

What size pot was she grown in?
I canna remember.

I find the smoke highly flavorful, especially after a decent cure. Much the same with the scent. Like most plants, this one really needs a good, long cure to bring out her true nature.
I have DDA that's over a year old and she changed a hell of a lot during that time.
Could be that I had a vastly different phenotype or the plant expressed differently due to how it was grown but I find it above average compared to what I've grown in the past four years.

I think that cannabis is like most things...subjective.
Some may find DDA exceptional while others find it average or unremarkable. Much of this being based upon personal taste and how strains can act towards our own unique physiology.

You'll just have to try it for yourself and come to your own conclusion.
Personally.... I love the stuff.

Saw that J is about to harvest his beauty while I'm getting ready to chop the Wookiee.

Thanks for testing those seeds for me. It was my first seed making attempt.
I'm glad to see it has been successful so far.

Hi, VG!

What size pot was she grown in?
I canna remember.

She was in a 3 gallon/ ProMix HP & mc...

this one really needs a good, long cure to bring out her true nature.

That's not a problem, I'm such a lightweight- most of my weed has been in the jars for over a year...

You'll just have to try it for yourself and come to your own conclusion.

Ha! My little nuggie is dry enough, so I'll be doing just that real soon...

You're welcome! ... and Thank You for giving me the opportunity to grow one!
If I like the tester, I may test that second one you sent also- I think there's enough of the season left to squeeze out a couple more autos....

Thanks again, VG- I really appreciate it..
And please- let me know if you need anything, seed-wise!

 

[BooWho2]

Hopefully a smoke report tonight?

Those buds look delicious!

Well, it's gonna be my bedtime smoke, so it won't be tonight, but I'll post it up tomorrow for sure!

Thank You, GB!
The way it smells, it might actually taste pretty good after a few weeks in the jar...

 

[Carcass]

I suck at smoke reports, but...
as promised,@BooWho2 , here's a smoke report on the DDa:

It tasted pretty good, even though it was quick-dried...

A nice, relaxing, comfortable buzz,- not the most powerful stuff, but not bad at all ...if I want to get a little higher, I can just smoke a little more. The high lasts about an hour, then fades into an overall calm feeling...at this point, you can either smoke more, or go to sleep...I think it's a nice buzz for any time of day, although, I'll probably be using it mostly for sleep from now on..

I liked it so much, I'm quick drying a few more nugs as we speak...

 

[Nine Toed Hippie]

Nice work Carcass. What is your preferred quick drying method?

NTH

 

[Carcass]

Thanks, NTH!

I just clip the little nug to the exhaust fan shroud- the constant warm air coming out of the box dries it in about 8 hours.
I've also dried them in the oven- it's an oldie with a pilot light, so it stays real warm in there- takes about 3 hours ...but, I've forgotten about them before, and they got burnt up when Mrs.C. lit the oven, so I seldom use the oven anymore...
Actually, I seldom quick dry anything, but I really wanted to try this DDa...and now I really want to try it again, so I'm quick drying a few more nugs...

Good morning C Star!

L O L L I N G !

When I was a ratbag, and ex boyfriend and I ripped off a friends crop. Look I was more the Bonnie to his Clyde, if Bonnie was a drug addicted easily led accomplice who never reaped any kind of reward that is lol. And we got back to our flat and decided to quick dry some in the oven, despite having our own bowl full. To celebrate our crime we decided to boof up a little Harry, look it prolly wasn’t to celebrate, just makes it sound less dirty. I can literally remember being on the nod and thinking “I can really smell weed”, but not putting two and two together.

Let’s just say we over cooked it.

The good old days C Banger, I’d rather shit in my hands and clap than live through them again (second time today I’ve said that btw).

You've definitely got a way with words, T!

Yeah...the "good old days"........I think we're both lucky we lived through 'em!

 

[Carcass]

Happy Monday! Time for an UPDATE on the only plant plant I've got left...

The Blackskull GSC is 106 days old today, flipped 56 days ago, flowering for 46 days-
Her seed was generously provided by the so-cal seed fairy

I'm sorry she's a little droopy- I should of watered her yesterday, but didn't...

I thinned out her middle section a little- between that and the drooping, you can see a little more of her through the door...

The SaugaView®: not much light goes to waste in there...I've turned the light down to 175watts (from 200)- I'm not seeing any light damage, but it just seemed to me like it might be more light than she needs.
She's only 14.5 inches from the light, so 175watts should do the trick without burning anything..

And a few buds...

I bumped her mc up to 6g/gal, so she's being fed that, plus 1g/gal AloeVera powder, 4ml. silica, and .25g
Easy Weed...and she's liking it so far- she's probably got about 2 weeks to go, so it looks like she might be happy right up to the end....I've usually killed off a lot of the leaves by now, so this is a little "different" for me...

And then there's the DDa- She only took 6 days to dry- I was hoping for 8 or 9, but it is what it is...
1.8 oz now, but she'll lose a little during the curing process, so around 1.5oz when she's done...

And that's about all there is today!
Thank You for looking,
I appreciate the support
I hope everyone's week is a good one!

Good morning C Star

You just made it in the required time frame too. It’s 0600 Tuesday here.

She looks so beautiful even when she’s thirsty. I can’t believe how fast this grow feels. It has been such a great opportunity growing with you. I really hope we can do this again. Maybe a northern hemisphere/Southern Hemisphere comparative grow using seed fairy seeds.

 

[Carcass]

I can’t believe how fast this grow feels.

I know, right? Seems like we just got started...

I really hope we can do this again.

Sounds good! I can't start another one till this one's done, so I'll be a few weeks behind you this time...
And, I still have to decide what to grow next..it used to be easy, when I only had 8 seeds or so...

 

[Grand Daddy Black]

The Getyou Stoned Cannabis plant continues to impress, Carcass. Nice, frosty buds forming on that one.

And the DDA is, well, I'll just say very picturesque!

I can’t believe how fast this grow feels.

Me either! My grows of about the same number of days seem to take forever.

And, I still have to decide what to grow next..it used to be easy, when I only had 8 seeds or so...and 6 of those were the same strain.

FTFY!

 

[Carmen Ray]

Such a magnificent plant Carcass, and the bud too... have fun picking your next seed

 

[Carcass]

Thank You, GDB!

And the DDA is, well, I'll just say very picturesque!

Yeah, she's not the strongest weed, but the high is really nice- I'm going to keep most of that one for myself...

Such a magnificent plant Carcass, and the bud too

Thank You, Carmen!
Those buds are just now starting to fatten up a little, should be pretty chonky by the end...

 

[BooWho2]

OMG Carcass! Those buds and colas are huge, and she is gorgeous as ever!
