Carcass' $150 Low Budget Grow 2019

Hopefully this time I won’t embarrass myself
Don't even worry about that- you've come a long way since then!
I may have to worry, but you don't... 😁
 
Congrats on the harvest, Carcass! Are the Wookies sativa-dominant or indica-dominant? Glad to hear it works for you.
 
Congrats on your Wookiee 2 harvest! Man, you all talking about it making me rethink my rethinking about my Candida/Wookiee grow! Temptresses/ors! Can’t wait to hear if you pass the marshmallow test or not, Carcass. 😄
 
Congrats on the harvest, Carcass!
Thank You, HashGirl!
I believe Wookiee is indica dominant (Wedding Cake x Girl Scout Cookies)
I prefer indica, so it worked out well...

Congrats on your Wookiee 2 harvest!
Thanks, HH!

Yesterdays harvest was actually #1- #2 got harvested apx 3 weeks ago, and I failed the marshmallow test on that one..:cheesygrinsmiley:.. ( #1 was in the big SIP, #2 was in the little SIP hence the wonky numbering)

I got to sample #1 apx. 2 weeks ago, when I was pulling off a dead leaf, and the whole little bud came off with it- so, obviously, I had no choice but to quick dry it and smoke it...:cheesygrinsmiley:
It was/is very powerful stuff...2 hits would've done the trick, but I smoked 5..so,as @Grand Daddy Black would say- I was heavily zooted for about 3 hours...:lot-o-toke:
 
I almost talked myself into waiting till tomorrow, but I decided to just get it over with today
Well since it was supposed to be tomorrow I figured I'd wait for the official chop day to say: Congratulations on the harvest! 126 days is a long time to wait for an auto to finish (much less an indica dominant one) so :welldone: taking it down only one day early. Those are some nice hand grenades hanging there, and you can really get an idea of the spiral staircase structure in the silhouette shot. Nice!
 
Harvest day for the Wookiee auto #1!

126 days old, 98 days in the SIP, and flowering for apx. 61 days-I almost talked myself into waiting till tomorrow, but I decided to just get it over with today...🤔

She went 3 weeks longer than her sister (Wookiee#2)
h2.jpg


Raised on Grow Dots, Purpinator, and Prescription Blend's "Core B", although, nothing seemed to help much to stop her yellowing...
The buds did ok, though...
h4.jpg


I think she put on a lot more frost in the last ten days or so... I tried a sample about 2 weeks ago, and I got sooo effing stoned..., so now maybe she's even better?:lot-o-toke:

Her first and last outdoor pic....no sun today, just clouds and fog...
HO 5.jpg


The last SaugaView® before she becomes just a memory....🙂

That didn't take long....
h4a.jpg


One of her spiral colas.....This Wookiee, and the last one, were the stickiest plants I've ever grown- I had to clean the clippers 10 or 12 times while trimming, which gave me a pretty good sized gob of scissor hash...😁

Annnd, 2.5 hours later, I've ended up with this...(minus one oz for the pan, so 22.2oz wet, around 5 oz dry, I figure...)
h6a.jpg


Into the drying box she went, where she''ll stay for the next 8 days or so- less if the weather warms up, longer if it stays cold like it is today..I leave the exhaust fan on for the first 24 hours, then it comes on for half an hour every 6 hours till she's dry enough for the jars..the longer it takes, the better she'll taste...

And that about closes the book on that one-

A big Thank You goes out to my son, @Justin Goody , for creating and supplying the seeds for both of these Wookiee autos...:love:
And Thanks to everyone who followed this grow, I appreciate all of you!💚
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next up will be a Barney's Farm/ Blue Gelato 41 comparative grow with @Trala -we haven't figured a start date yet, but it'll be soon!

A little info on what we'll be a growin':

Blue Gelato 41 Cannabis Seeds​


Type: Feminized strain
Blue Gelato 41 Strain by Barneys Farm- 60% indica/40% sativa/photoperiod

Blue Gelato 41 strain is our sensational new Blueberry super-cross with the West Coast. She was created by crossing the famous Blueberry with Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies and the fresh and fruity Indica, Sunset Sherbert. Blue Gelato 41 strain will rapidly plunge you into a tranquil pool of potent psychedelic pleasure. Many phenotypes display blue/purple flowers, all are smeared in thick resin and ooze sweet and earthy citrus flavours.

Sounds good to me!
That Wookie came in nice and heavy Carcass! They must be dense colas?
 
Lovely harvest Carcass,
Thank You, Stunger!- Great to see you!
Your growing season must be just around the corner..I wanna watch!
126 days is a long time to wait for an auto to finish (much less an indica dominant one)
Thanks, Shed-
It is a long time for an auto, but tbh, I'm not positive that she was a true auto- she made a feeble attempt at flowering on her own around day 35, but didn't really get serious about it till I flipped her to 12/12...
I think she was more a fauxto than a real auto... :hmmmm:

Thanks, Stone- They are very dense!
I don't think they have any choice under that Nextlight 420h- you know how intense that thing is!
 
Lol, I just love the word zooted. :smokin:
Me too!

And it works on so many levels!

After a long day at work: I’m absolutely zooted
After eating too much: I’m full as a zoot
After a dirty weekend: I got zooted for dayzzzzzzzz
After eating mushies: I was zooting technicolour
After being banned from the forum: he can get zooted!

Such a good word!- someone should work it into the name of a new strain...with @Grand Daddy Black 's permission, of course!:cheesygrinsmiley:


I've got nothing growing at the moment, so there's not much to say today....how about a tiny Update
on Wookiee#1, still in the drying box?

She's not going to take the 8-10 days I'd hoped for- I checked her RH this morning, and it seems she'll be ready for the jars by the end of today(6 days):
Almost dry 2.jpg

She's at 68%, according to the mayonnaise jar test- that was at 10 am this morning, so, by 5 pm or so, she should be at 65-66%, and that's when she goes in the jars to begin the curing process, which takes me about 3-4 weeks to complete....

Annnnd, that's all I've got today...it'll be about 2 or 3 more weeks before @Trala and I start our second comparative grow (Barneys Blue Gelato 41/fem/photo) so it'll be pretty quiet over here till then!

A little note from T:
BG41.jpg

So do I, Trala! I'm not worried about you.... it's me I'm not so sure about...😄

Thank you all for following along with my grows,
I really appreciate the support...:love:

I hope everyone has a wonderful week..:peace:

Good morning C Big Smiles :)

Your bud looks 🔥

I’m so excited to grow with you again! In fact I haven’t been this excited since [*Deleted by Admin due to lewd and inappropriate language*]

I only have one shot at waking mine. At least you have a spare!

Hopefully, I won't need the second one...but with my record, ya never know!
I actually did a little better than usual on the last grow,(2 seeds, 2 plants)
but that may have been a fluke... 🤔

Well yeah, you had my seeds! ;) Maybe that’s the secret, and now you’ve got Trala’s, so they’ll sprout nice n easy for you too!
 
Well yeah, you had my seeds!
Duh! I forgot about that shipping snafu...no wonder they were so eager to sprout!🌱
And here I thought I was losing my touch...🤪
and now you’ve got Trala’s, so they’ll sprout nice n easy for you too!
Ha! If they aren't mine, they'll sprout just fine...or something like that...:cheesygrinsmiley:
 
Johnnie Cochran's got nothing on you!
Nope- he's almost as bad at poetry as I am...🤪
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, a little follow-up to yesterdays Update...
They must be dense colas?
Even denser than I thought...I stuck them in a turkey bag overnight, checked the rH this morning- 62%, so almost overdried, but not quite (I prefer 65% going into the jars) It will (probably) creep up to 64% or so after a few days in the jars...

This surprised me, I was thinking 5-6 oz or so: ( indoor Wookiee #1)
h2.jpg
<--at harvest time..
211.4g a.jpg


7.8oz- subtract 7g for the turkey bag, and that leaves 211g/ 7.5oz of very dense buds...me--> :)



That's my last "good" jar in the middle, so I had to use what I had sitting around for the rest of it..
in the jars 2.jpg


And while I was weighing stuff, figured I'd get a final weight on the outdoor Wookiee#2 : Also me->:)
W2-nbb4.jpg
<---how she looked at harvest time
Outdoor Wookiee#2-147g.jpg

Minus 7g for the bag, that's 147g/5.2oz ...my youngest son filled his stash jar with it last week, so it was actually about a quarter oz more before he got into it...he gave it his seal of approval ("it's good shit"), so there's that...:cheesygrinsmiley:

So that finally closes the book on those 2...We'll have Wookiees to smoke on for quite awhile...

Thanks for looking, I appreciate your support :love:
I hope everyone is having a nice Tuesday,
and your gardens are all growing like weeds..:peace:
 
Thank You, Shed👍
And I wish I could get my flowers dry...4 hours in a box with a mini-dehuey and I could only get them to 66%. :(
It gets pretty warm in the garage during the day, even on overcast days- I think that's why this one dried so fast- tbh, I halfway expected to see 69-70% rh in the turkey bag this morning, thinking I may have pulled it out of the drying box a little early, but it was at 62%- If I'd of left it another day it would have dried way too much.
And...your buds are a lot fatter than these- these actually dried up kind of skinny..but there's a lot of them, so they add up.
Right now, they're at 60% after 3 hours in the jars- hopefully, they creep back up ... 🤔

Good Morning C 60 :)

So a really brilliant and experienced grower gave me this tip. Get a canna leaf, scrunch it and add it to your jar and the humidity will rise. Just make sure to remove the leaf.

Lolling!
