Nice haul on the AK Shed. I'm with the others on how you going to keep the wife out of the jars for 5 weeks? Impossible!

Is this because curing doesn't officially begin until the jars no longer need burping?

Thanks Norcali! It stinks up the whole house when I burp them.
So far so good!
Thanks newty! It just got really busy in that clone box (pics in a bit) but I figure if there's any green after a month there have to be roots, no? Glad you like the defolAwesome! Those clones are fine, just trim off that crap and they will grow new green stuff. I do not need to tell you NOT to put in a plastic bag. I see you learned the hard way:/
Congrats on the full jars! I wouldn’t expect they lose too much weight at 70%
Also, that defoil is on point #snaps
.Do you have a secret location for those jars for 5 weeks or a security guard while your at work? Lol I’d be looking for them
Luckily she still has some of the AK-47 auto to get through so it may time out perfectly!
Exactly! Two weeks of burping in an attempt to get them down close to 62% and then sealed up for the cure, which would be a minimum of 3 weeks. I still have jars of Blueberry auto from last fall! My wife doesn't smoke indica as much and I'm using it for topical oil and capsules for my dad.
Excellent harvest as usual Shed....
Hope the father is doing well......

Thanks Bonsai. We have a meeting about him tomorrow morning with all interested parties. It's a bit of a clusterfest at his assisted living place!

It's Monday and I'm dragging today. Before I post an update this morning I want to make sure no one misses the update from last night. Sometimes it takes the better part of a day for folks to make it here and so make sure to check out this one as well!
I gave Auto Masszar 1 gallon plain pH water today because runoff was high. Runoff is still high so I'll do that again next time it's dry.
Here is the clone box last night after I got everything out of the glasses and into soil. I threw out the dead Gold Leaf clone and replaced it with the new one. And I had 10 Sour G cuttings so they got doubled up. Given my track record I doubt I'll get a pot with two winners but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
And here is a post-mortem on the AK roots. It was solid in there from top to bottom, which is not surprising given how old it was. I got most of the soil back and will use it for non-cannabis plants. Maybe I'll buy some osmocote to put nutes back in.
That's my update for today. Damn 5-day workweek. Every Monday should be a holiday

are those lemons in the background ...dude .... i wanna be yer neighbour

They are. I have 6 lemon trees (3 in the ground and 3 in large containers) all grown from seeds found sprouted inside lemons originating from the tree in the backyard of the first place I lived in LA. It takes years before plants from seed produce lemons but 5 of 6 are old enough now.
And if you were my neighbor you'd probably have citrus trees too. They're pretty common here.

Also, two AK plant pics have been entered! You asked, I answered .
.
The older clones still look good to me shed! The key is the burp the tote or tub as I think you call it and mist the top or sides after refreshing the air. Stagnat air equals mold like you showed us.
Anywho congrats on the killer ak harvest what did you submit potm?! It was a beauty! The haze seemed to really bounce back with the flush. I agree if the ppm is still high let the plant take.whats trapped in the soils and just give her some h20.
The mazzar is frosting up nicely and I see the other plants are flowing also. So at least they're consistent...
Hope your afternoon goes by quickly mondays can drag for sure. Just turn on some jams and cruise through

I’m amazed nobody else noticeed, but that previus update... I saw shadows created by SUNSHINE! I saw BLUE SKY! 
Must’ve been lovely to spend the day with them while the sun was shining Shed
Such an excellent haul on the AK - quite something to live up to now isn’t it!? Thankfully it should last a while. If that was my only stash it would take me about 2 years to go through it!
Hey - My Australian version of the MB2 arrived a couple of weeks ago I and I finally got it out of the box yesterday and made up a new batch of topical oil. I now have 500ml of “Money Bush” infused oil in the fridge, so that should last a while too! Was great using the MB2 - but damn it’s heavy. It was good I’d done it on a day my career comes because I had to get her to do all the pouring and clean it out after. Days gone by I was a fairly strong woman, building cabins and furniture and the like... no longer... Thank heaven for other people
I’ve noticed the oil that came out of th MB2 is a touch gritty. Like it has a very very fine grit. SO maybe I need a finer straining bag. NOt sure how many microns the one that comes with it is. It’ll be ok, just not ideally how I’d want to for a topical. Have you noticed that at all Shed?

Plowing through it and just 90 minutes left. I think I'll make it an early night!Nice healthy roots. Sorry to hear about the Monday workday blues, tho.
I'm in and out of the clone box at least 2x a day and I've been watering the older ones by putting water in the bowls and letting them soak it up. Still don't see any roots at the hole in the bottom on them though.The older clones still look good to me shed! The key is the burp the tote or tub as I think you call it and mist the top or sides after refreshing the air. Stagnat air equals mold like you showed us.

Yes on the sumbmission. Tell me if you like the two pics I chose!
Hi Amy, we did have a sunny weekend and the back of my neck is about 4 shades darker than the rest of me from all the time I spent outsideI’m amazed nobody else noticeed, but that previus update... I saw shadows created by SUNSHINE! I saw BLUE SKY!

! And that AK should last a while, particularly if I can get another sativa in the mix to give the Missus some choice outside the AK auto she's been smoking exclusively (because that's all I have, and now I have more...I wonder if they will have similar tastes and effects 
). That's what the Haze Xtreme was supposed to be for, but I'm not sure it's going to be of any size when it heads into flower. Maybe now that I've sorted out the nutes it will go back to growing. Or maybe I'll keep it with the autos under the Mars at night and not let it flower outside with the rest, and then flip it when it's got some stems on it. I've got a couple of months to sort that out though 
.Congrats on the MB machine! It is a lot heavier than I expected it to be, but I guess the grinder is what's adding the weight. I'm glad you had help using it because once it's set up it makes oil a lot less work than the oven or stovetop. Can you leave it on the counter so it will be easier to access in the future? Then it's just clean up which can wait.
I think my bag has the micron size listed but I don't remember what it is. Might be smaller than yours because I don't have any grit in mine. You could always just go with a coffee filter after the main bag if it's bugging you!
Thanks for stopping by!
Most of Los Angeles was citrus groves before we became a real city, so the climate (up until now anyway
) is perfect for it. I've also got a small satsuma tree (type of mandarin) and used to have a huge naval orange tree where the bike shed is now. I didn't take it out, it died from other causes :-0.

I'm going to hide a quart jar from each plant from now on. Our growth/harvest has not yet met our use and sharing/trading so we've not cured anything longer than 4 weeks. I'm amazed at how quickly we went from conservative to "we've got sooooooo much weed there's no need to monitor"

Ok Shed.... I have a new journal (I thought I wasn't gonna do that?!)
Psycho clone is 35 days and Grape Ape is 17 days from sprout....
Closet Grow With QB
I could use your expert guidance on keeping them short (like your AK)

That happened to me too! Joined thinking I wouldn’t journal... I think it took all of 2 months!
I’ll pop over too if that’s cool

I need to keep them on the small side, 4 feet max, and that's very counterintuitive for me so I could use all the help available

@Amy Gardner is putting together a closet grow as I recall so I'm sure she'll have thoughts for you!

Amy, would you tag me in your closet grow journal? I tried looking for it but not having luck
