GDB's Express Grow

Hello growers.

It's Flip + 75 for the Express Grow.

The Black Domina has nearly stopped drinking. When I went to feed the group last night, The Goo and Grape Ape pots were quite light but the BD was as heavy as a freshly watered plant. (They were all fed 2 days ago.)

The BD doesn't have as much amber as I'd like.

Still, I'll be taking her down shortly. I hope she turns out to be one of those "get up and do something" smokes! :ganjamon:

Anyhow, she's a raggly-scraggly, floppy, sloppy heap of a plant that I'm "sick of looking at." :)

This eases my mind a bit. Now, no matter how long the other 2 plants go, I'll still have room in the 4x4 to move in the clones (which I'll be flipping tomorrow) from the 2x2 tent. I'll still attempt to leave the clones in the 2x2 until the tent is cleared (because I'd like to scrub it before the clones go in), but if necessary there's now space for them in the 4x4.

Thanks for looking in.

Peace.
 
She looks good to me GDB. How do you harvest? Do you do a pre-chop dark period or anything? Or just "Here comes the pruning shears"!
 
Lookin great GDB! Those plants have some big fat colas!

BD has a lot of milky trichomes on her she is at peak ripeness, and since she has stopped drinking it’s time to pull out the chainsaw…Timber!!

Thanks Budman.

I have a "Box of Darkness" that I put them in for a few days. This one won't fit in the box though, so she'll come straight down.

If you're not getting the "get up and do something" kind of high from your plants, maybe the amber you like is too much???

Hey HashGirl! :ciao:

I didn't mean to imply that I don't get those kinds of plants. I've got quite a few "get up and do something" ones in my stash. I just hope this ends up being another one. I've found that sometimes even when there's little amber at takedown a plant can still end up being a "sit down and be quiet" type! I guess it relates to some other things in addition to the state of the trichomes, perhaps terpene profiles.

I like both kinds! But I seldom use a "sit down and be quiet" type during the day. :Rasta:
 
Hello growers.

It's Flip + 76 for the Express Grow.

I took down the Black Domina last night.

If I hadn't been too lazy to deal with her drooping, she may have been a fairly nice looking plant at the end! But because I did nothing she's a heavy leaner. Here's her obit pic.

She produced a nice mound of hard, sticky buds.

But do you see how her skeleton is leaning coming out of the soil. That's one of my up-pot problems. Not only do I often fail to center my up-pots but I also seldom get them in straight up vertically. Then when they mature and get some weight on them they start leaning. I need to work on that!

Here's the array shot. She weighed in at 573g wet.

I gave her a light trimming and then stuck everything in a paper bag to be dealt with today or tomorrow. That's when I'll give her a tighter trim and wash her. For now she's in a post-chop dark period. :)

The reason why I didn't (couldn't) finish her was that before I got started on the takedown, I got in a little practice with my nug smasher. After 4 so-so attempts over the past few day, I finally got a somewhat better yield, pressing 4g of my THC Bomb.

I think I'm getting the hang of how to do this and I'll discuss it at more length one day, perhaps with a post on @Grandpa Tokin's thread.

Of course, since I squished it I had to try some, and that led to my inability/unwillingness to complete the harvest process! :Rasta:

Thanks for looking in.


Peace.
 
Congratulations on the harvest GDB! Leaning and drooping or not, it looks like a great collection of spears. I miss the WaPo on the table but I guess black plastic does show off the flowers better. :)

And nice squishings too. Practice makes perfect! :welldone:
 
Nice harvest GDB and two more to go! Better get them done before you perfect your nug smashing ;)

Thanks, Shed. I'm no Allen Iverson. I don't mind practice! :Rasta:

Ha! Budman, I'm thinking I need to consider whatever needs to be done and get it done before engaging in any dab session! :laughtwo:

So the THC Bomb is both " sit down and be quiet" stuff, and "I'll finish that shit tomorrow" stuff? :)
Multi-Purpose weed....

Exactly! :laughtwo:
 
Congrats on the harvest, GDB! And, nice work on the rosin.

Any news on the coleus seeds you planted back in April?

The three that sprouted all stretched up to about 7 inches tall, way thinner than angel hair pasta and then slowly died.

Thanks for asking. :(
