Dutchman’s 1st Grow Ever: 2018

It does, thanks Dutch! There's a bit of the haze from the lighting but the calyxes look like they're mostly cloudy with some clears. If that's what you're seeing IRL then you just decide if you want any amber in there. If not, then you could probably take it down any day now. If you want to thread the needle you would wait for a few ambers before you chop. Either way I'd say you're golden. Great work!
 
OK. As promised !!

Some dirty up close and personal trich shots and not only from WW1 but WW2 she’s a bit closer than to her sister than I thought!

White Widow 1














White Widow 2











How’s that ?! Hopefully that shows them calyx’s better !
:drool:

Woohoo :yahoo::yahoo: I knew they were getting close!! I’m actually surprised WW2 is actually a little closer to finish than I thought she was they may be a day or 2 apart !

I think I’ll give WW1 until Friday and chop her then her sister Saturday or Sunday! Exciting times here!

Oh nice... tell me more about the friends setup?? I want me some of that!!

Ok so he has a 6-ton hydraulic jack with electronic heat plates on a digital thermostat.

He places (x) amount of product between parchment paper or press screens and then squeezes said product.

What you are left with is pure terpene and rosin extraction. Absolutely amazing flavour and 75-90% THC just amazing. Better the strain the more of a return you will get. I squeeze 7g at a time and I get about 2 grams back! Which is a pretty good return off of bud !

Hope this better explains the setup
 
October 11 - Day 74

Checked on the widows today again. Few more cloudy but no new ambers some are slightly starting to change so I think tomorrow will be harvest day for WW2 and then the big girl WW1 will be saturday !

The smells that are floating around the room are absolutely amazing! Heavy ammonia’s with light pines lovely! Really looking forward to my first harvest!! That’s going to be a BIG notch on the belt and a great success in my start of this growing career !

I thank everyone for being here with me and helping along to way! Amazing support great experience and efforts! Looking forward to many years to come with all of you !
:high-five::thanks:
 
Holy Smokes!!! It’s like the Ganja Gods have spoken and sent me Xmas early!! It keeps getting better today !!
!:cheer:

I have been a busy beaver today with starting my first harvest ! WW2 is going to be harvested and I’m currently in the process of preparing myself for the trim!:ganjamon:

BUT while I was sitting here having a smoke break I heard the door bell ring...
and needless to say ....

The ganja gods first sign came to me:adore:

My 4x4 net (x2) for setting up my Early Miss scrog! Hurricane fan for some more air flow! Who doesn’t need more airflow right!? Haha

So I go back and sit down to continue and then again my doorbell rings.... well this time I didn’t know who it could be but...... a smiling face from the delivery man brings me this sweeeeeeeet package!

Sooo needless to say I was SUPER EXCITED!! All on the same day my WW2 is coming down!

Wow I couldn’t ask for a better welcoming to my first harvest!

The Harvest has begun!

Updates to come shortly!!!
 
October 12 - Day 75

Helloooo and Great evening to everyone! Man am I having a great night or what!

Got all those great packages in the mail this evening and just finished my first harvest!

White Widow 2 is now the first girl to be harvested of the 4 plants in my tent.

White Widow 1 will be harvested tomorrow and she’s much bigger so I’m expecting a pretty big yield off her and wow is she ever frosty !!

But I was having a smoke after finishing trimming and washing and I thought what better way to enjoy the harvest then to share it and celebrate it with my friends here! It took me about 2.5hrs to cut trim and wash WW2 and she turned out lovely!

Before wash I got her weighed in at 235g! Not to bad for my first small girl! Her big sister will definitely trump that though!

My first “BudWash” was a success ! Took the advice from everyone here obviously and they are now hanging to dry for a few hours before going into the dry rack inside the drybox !

So without further hesitation let’s get to some photos!




















I look forward to harvesting WW1 tomorrow and sharing it with you all again! Happy green days my friends!


WOOOHOOO! :yahoo::high-five::thanks:

Thanks Preston! Really pleased with my first girl! Excited to see how much WW1 yields today as she’s the big girl!

Hope you have a great weekend Preston !

Dayum! Beautiful buds and what an amazing first harvest Dutch.
:bravo:

Thanks Shed! Without the support of the community here it wouldn’t have been the same! I’m pretty tickled about my first girl! Can’t wait for her big sister! The Early Miss are going to be absolute monsters once they finish.... they are going to be a handful even under the nets I’ve got ready to put in after harvesting WW1 today! Going to have some nice tent photos of her spread once I get her pulled down a bit with the net!

Hope you have a great weekend Shed!

Congratulations, Brother! :high-five:

You got your first harvest in so that officially makes you a grower! :yahoo:

Awesome job! :welldone:

Man I couldn’t be excited to be a grower! Sweet sweet success and man what a great feeling! Thanks again Krip for helping along the way! I’ve got my buds hanging in the DIY drybox idea given by you! They are on close hangers since last night going into the drying racks today since I’ll need my hangers and clips back for WW1 lol!

Hope you have a great weekend brother!

Congratulations on your harvest there. Now you're screwed. You have been bitten by the grow bug. I like the purchase on the seeds. That looks like a good run.

Haha thanks Sam ! This bug has definitely given me the sickness ! But I’m growing the cure ! Excited to drop some seeds and see where the next grow takes me !


More harvest updates today with WW1 coming down! Woohoo:yahoo::slide:
 
Nice haul Dutchie...well done and well deserved. Looks like the plants gave back plenty for the love you gave her over the last few months. :goodjob:

Thanks for the positive vibes sauga! Pretty happy with these girls ! Excited to see what WW1 brings today!

Early Miss are getting flipped tomorrow once I get the net in place and pull her down! She’s still stretching to the light.... over 4ft tall now she’s a beast !


This is her compared to WW1 and she was the biggest of the 2 widows!!
