The site went down for me just as I tried like your post after mine! Seems fine this morning...must have been some Friday night maintenance.

That cure box is genius man! Fantastic seeing the MacGyver approach. Cannabis makes us so creative sometimes...
Can't wait to hear how these buds cure with the fridge method as it's high on my bucket list for future grows.
Have you been checking trichomes on the calyxes or only the leaves? Couldn't see any calyxes in the recent photos, that's why I ask..typically amber starts on sugar leaves and moves inwards toward the buds.

Oh wow. Woke up super stoned over this morning lol! Happy late Sunday morning from Aotearoa!
Yeah, I think it was only a minute or two! Don't know if it was related to the sluggishness I was experiencing prior to.
Thanks Abstrakt!! This will actually just be for the drying part in the fridge - the curing will be done in the conventional way with a glass jar and at room temperature!
I know some people in the Low&Slow thread have tried fridge curing too though.
Lol yes you are so right - I've thought about this too. But the plant is such a freak! I can't easily see the calyxes themselves. Just a whole bunch of pistils and sugar leaves.
Desert, day 40 since first stigma, day 49 since flip
From this off-angle you can see some of the funky foxtailing on the "frontmost" buds. They have been only 1-2cm away from the LEDs for weeks. They are not getting burnt or bleached, which can be credited to the LEDs.
In any case, not ideal, but I will be training the next plant differently in this box, and hope to avoid this issue entirely.
More and more pistils are turning reddish-brown now.
Some of the lower/smaller buds may have more visible calyxes. I'll have a closer look tonight!

These are some of the sexiest buds!! The bud to the right is starting to get that amber tint...How do I know? Put orange filter on your phone and look through it...
Can't fathom how these are so fucking hairy. Man I have to feel bad for you come trim time hahaha do you give it a haircut or leave shaggy rogers

She's a monster!
Not gonna lie y'all it looks like some pics of PGR buds I've seen online LOL!
What's Canna put in their nutes??
I'll probably leave the stigma on.
Maybe I'll trim one bud just to see what it looks like without!Whoa! Thank you I'll be trying that later
A light tropical fruit smell, mostly like mango. The plant has had barely any smell the entire grow! That was partly why I was worried about its potency, and why I was so stoked/relieved when I finally got to sample some. It's some nice stuff.
Nice brother.... where was the sample from?

Monday is crap so here’s a cool pic of a mature Desert in the cabinet 
You can see all the rigging on her branches to keep her as upright as I can.
Some might say she's snatched for the gods!

Those trained stems at the bottom are super cool to gaze at, makes me space out...Honestly I go nuts during this part of the grow when it seems so close yet so far away... 
How tall is this gal?
Have the pistils started changing or still white? I can tell to an extent...but not entirely...that amber tint I spoke of the other night could have been to various factors. And it was actually called a blue light filter on my phone that seemed to make the 'tint' more prevalent. It honestly might not even be different...just an illusion
But the right bud seems way more amber with the filter...
What kind of high are you ultimately going for?
