I'll say it again. I'm topping next season. Every year I mean to and never do. I'm hoping too next though! It'll probably;y improve everything. :)

I'm a firm believer in topping and training outdoor plants. It really keeps them manageable, and in my opinion, improves the quality of the buds. Also, I don't have to climb a ladder any longer. :cool:

Next year I'll go back to bt I think.

BT for the win! I've had really good luck with BT... as long as I spray at least once per week, and only mix up what I can use that day.

The better you delarf, the bigger buds make you smile more!!

I 100% agree, Bode! And easier trimming on harvest day. #nolarfclub

I brought a new tool in, a bowl trimmer. It's a bud hacker and I'll use it for big projects and time crunches like the need for the tent starting tomorrow. Anyway, Using the trimmer was a big deal and it saved me hours on end and my sanity! It did a reasonable job trimming, not a hand trim in any way though.

The bowl trimmer is a "game changer" for sure!
StoneOtter said:
I'm glad to have had dense bud for my first run through the trimmer! These Betty buds are 30 to 40% less dense and I'm a little nervous about that.

Yeah, it definitely works better on denser buds, and smaller buds. I still hand trim the larger top colas.

Have you got a source for the Bowl Trimmer? Is it called "bud hacker"? I'm not finding anything on it, and am interested.
NICE HAUL!

I made a video demonstrating how it works a few seasons ago. Here's the link, if you're interested.

I love it and hate it Beez. It really helps with the killer work! I just need to accept the not so hand manicured look. That said, a couple of casual hours with a bowl trimmer saves days of tedious work and spirit testing! Huge game changer! It stays! Those buds in your video were some fatties! I haven't tried wet trimming yet, I'm looking to .

It's different in there alright! I'm like a bull in a china shop and usually knock off a hunk on him. He manages ok though.

WOOHOO! GOT MY HOLES AMENDED!

Yeah baby! Hi everyone! Got both summer yard holed dug out, enlarged a tad and amended to the new Rev recipe! I'm so happy with how these two came out that I'm continuing the quest to grow for high brix in the yard! I think these two plants are the tastiest yet from the yard among other things! One being the healthiest plants too!

So I got all the soil out of their holes. These are down to giant stones or maybe bedrock. About 16 x 24 inches.

Deep thoughts in there

Then I mixed Rev's amend into the soil in my little dump wagon.

Now Mother Nature can have all fall, winter, and spring to cook it to perfection!

What, no backhoe? :laughtwo:

The Rev's mix in an outdoor in-ground plant? Almost seems unfair. :green_heart:
 
Highya SO,

Gorgeous root ball you have there!! Did it come out easy? I usually leave stalks in the garden to break down roots in the soil. In the spring, they'll knock over easily, and come out with a couple inches below soil. But then I don't amend my soil either, just add things to the top. Big Betty must've had a nice root system to support all that biomass!

I'm finding this year that most plants harvested this year need the 3 (more or less) months of cure, then check again for potency. I took my last one down Thursday last. She was so heavy. Drying now. What a great growing year!!

I hope you and yours have a nice week coming and Happy Smokin'

Let's hope Azi! These beds were needing some love after 3 seasons of none! I'm hoping my water with between 400 and 600 ppm's will be ok. Maybe that low ppm rule can be for small containers.

Thanks Bode! It was massive! I had to use a rotating pronged tool to break up layers of roots before it would consider letting me remove it! Looking in the hole I could see there were thousands of horizontal roots going through and just under the lawn down to about a foot or where my topsoil met clay. Apple Betty was most impressive! I broke them all up and left them in for composting.

We really did have a super year! That beginning gave them time to make a nice frame and it stayed good all the way to a few days ago when frost got us here. What plant lasted to Thursday last?
 
Highya SO,

I had a gorgeous Super Silver Haze that lasted until Thursday! She went through days of frost, but the sun would always come out. I'm hoping for another 2 pounder! Few more days, and I'll know! Happy Smokin'

That's a wonderful score of Super Silver Haze! Most of us might not attempt a long runner like that Bode! You did great to finish so well! :yahoo:

APPLE BETTY FINALLY TRIMMED AND BUCKED

Hello everyone! Good day to ya! Apple Betty has been on my mind and in my hands every day for a while! Been trimming away and finished yesterday! Am I glad!

The end weight is 3.1 lb's and it's another one that tastes much better than the one I grew in the SIP earlier.

All hand trimmed as this bud is light density and goes through the trimmer into dust. Shoulda ran it through wet if I wanted to use the machine!

Anyway...here's Betty! She's awesome and will be some nice hash if I'm lucky soon!
