Grand Daddy Black Grows A Stack

Hello gang!

Well talk about a leisurely takedown, I'm just finishing up the chop of the Fat Kid's Cake clone, having started on Friday. And this was no big plant.

She's been boxed up for the fridge. I've got 'em packed in a little cozier than I prefer, but 1 box is all she's getting.

I forgot to weigh her. No matter. It is what it is.:Rasta:

The 3 remaining plants -- the Cosmic Lights clones -- will be coming down shortly. I'm going to take all three at once, but I've already begun plucking off fan leaves every time I visit the tent! By the time I decide to tackle them there won't be a lot left to do.

She looks real good- maybe she'll surprise you...

Those 2 outdoor ones I just harvested go from no amber and clear, to plenty of amber and cloudy- they were harvested between 9/1 and 9/21, so close to 3 weeks between start and finish.

I can't tell a lot of difference in the buzz', they're both good, but with the more ambery/cloudy stuff, it seems to last just a little longer with just a bit more "psychoactivity" going on....

They both taste equally bad, because it's waayy too early to be smoking it...but I had to try it a few times ...😁

That's interesting that you didn't notice much of a difference at the different stages. I've never fully bought into the theories around how trichs relate to the type of high. And I also don't find that sativas necessarily lead to an energetic high while indicas are more sedating. I pretty much smoke 'em and see how I feel!

Sometimes the weed will confirm one of the "theories," as the Lemon Bubble I recently tested. It has a sativa lean and it sent me out on an "adventure." But I know from experience that I can smoke that same strain at another time and nod right out!

I think terpenes play the major role in how weed affects a person along with the person's physical metabolism at the time of ingestion. If that sounds like I'm talking above my range of knowledge it's because I am! But that's what my gut tells me. :)

Thanks for looking in.

PEACE

If you slow down much more, you can probably just skip the fridge part.... 🤪

Congrats on a nice harvest, GDB!

I know there's a terpene in some weed that makes my nose run...I figure it's got to be a terpene, because it doesn't all do it...pinene would be my guess-
 
Congratulations on that low stress low energy harvest GDB! It looked great all cleaned up and even better by the box-load, and if the flowers don't quite do it you can always press it and just get the goodies out. That might be just the ticket.

Of course, the lightweights won't be thrilled...

Light weights can go to bed then 😄
 
More for us 😄 I call thca chick weed because they harvested it early. I need something that will sedate a wild elephant 🐘 I love the terpenes and cbn/cbd more then the thc but that's just my preference. If I want to trip balls I'll take some mushrooms or drop a tab 😉 indica dominant hybrids are my go to for daytime and when I go to bed I like that pure indica aged to peak amber for me that's 33%-50% amber.

Are you growing plants with high CBD numbers tested by the breeder? Because you can't make a plant produce CBD, just CBN (by harvesting later with more amber). CBD is a completely separate cannabinoid and needs to have been bred into the genetics of the seed.

No sadly not this year it's my first year growing and I got some clones of Humboldt dream from my buddy who bought them from Humboldt seed company. Best I can do let it make more cbn like your saying.

You can create CBN after harvest as well by drying and curing poorly. Some folks will do that for serious knock-out meds.

I'm curious as to the cbd content in HD now 🤔

Should be listed on the breeder's site.

Sorry to take up all this real estate GDB!

Humboldt's website says "%THC: 27.02%," so that would indicate there is no CBD or they'd usually list it.

Dang 🤔 well I'll let you all know how she turns out anyways still pumped to get into growing next year I'll pick my own strain out! 😀
 
StarkRaven said:
27% is pretty high that should do the job 😆

That's best case scenario from plants grown in an ideal controlled environment, so don't be surprised or disappointed if yours test lower. Of course, folks get plenty high from 15% weed as well. :)
