Congrats on the harvest of another fine grow!
That's all? I call that a major success!
Many hands make light work. All that bud, and it only took 3 hours - excellent!

Well done! Heavy yeilder thereLate Saturday/early Sunday harvest update of the 5 Killer Cookies from @ChefDGreen on flip day 64!
5KC is a cross of Cookies n Chem and KA5H (aka Killer A5 Haze), and it sprouted on May 2nd, vegged for 60 days and flowered for 64, for a total grow of 124 days. It was bottom-watered from day 1 in a SWICK of soil over a perlite reservoir, and it got pretty big for a grow this short.
It was raining this morning (such weird summer weather!) so I put up the umbrella and got to pulling off the fans. Here's what came off:
While I was pulling off the fans I found one small bud with rot on it hidden in the middle:
Off it came:
And in the bin it went. I actually killed about 5 caterpillars during fan removal, so there probably would have been more rot had I waited to take it down.
Then I dragged the plant into the steady drizzle and untied it, so here it was naked and fully flopped:
I filled up a 5 gallon bucket with tap water for the wash, sat under the umbrella, took off the shorter flowers, rinsed them, and laid them on the patio coffee table:
Then it was time to take the main tops, and since I had nowhere to put them to dry, I hung them back on the branches!
The bones:
By the time I was done the rain had stopped, so I dumped the buggy first bucket and filled it up again for a second rinse, and from there the flowers went into the garage to drip dry. I called my trimming crew and had a good group consisting of my wife, daughter, and my son's best friend since pre-school (he's living in our garage for the summer while he interns nearby). The four of us knocked out the entire plant in about 3 hours!
Here is what came off during trimming:
And here is the whole plant:
Just the main tops:
And a cool shot from below:
Finally, Grandpa's Moonshine got moved out of the cramped tent and in the shed for the rest of its nights:
The rain came back tonight and the RH in my house is 78%, so the tent is open with one fan on top, two fans on the floor, and an oscillating tower fan just outside pointing in. I hope the RH drops soon so I can drive the moisture from the harvest.
I'll do the rootopsy tomorrow and probably get pics of that up on Monday.
That's it from me today, and thanks for following along! One down, one to go for the summer grow.

The longer it takes the bigger the harvest!
I never guess since it turns out I'm terrible at it, and I stopped weighing my wet harvests years ago because it seemed like more trouble than it was worth, but 1lb would definitely be my biggest. So far my biggest was the 15.3oz Jack Herer clone, but my biggest harvest from seed is 11.8oz Chocolope from @Weed Seeds Express, and that was also a big harvest from a short grow.

After seeing it all trimmed up and hanging, I was thinking I low-balled it. Congrats on a super impressive grow, Shed. Glad you recruited a good team to help out with that tentacular beast.
Congrats on the harvest! Sorry I missed the grow.
Congrats on another successful harvest, Shed!
5KC looks awesome - lots of chunky nugs.

Thanks Regrowth!

for the push to get it done yesterday.

Thanks Carmen, it turned out pretty okay in the end.
Sunday brought the RH down to the high 50s in the house, so I'm feeling better about it.
One huge Cheech and Chong joint is what I was thinking.
Thanks Regrowth!Thank you Nick!
LOL!
I try to hang dry for 7 days, but so much of that depends on the weather. I'm using @Carcass' method of putting the fans on a timer, but I'm wary of using it this early, so I'll run them 24 hours a day until tomorrow afternoon once I feel like the buds are more in the safe zone.
Ricky Gervais comedy special on Netflix. We like comedy specials for trimming because you don't have to look up.
Thank you Otter! I'm definitely over the moon.Brother that's one beautiful plant hanging! What a work! I'm in for over a lb still! What nice colas she and you grew! Worth all the mooning at ya!
Thanks Lerugged, and that little rot was a surprise given how much contact some of those inside flowers were making with each other. Rootopsy tomorrow!
Thanks Bode! Best part of the harvest was that quick trim.
Your prediction is duly noted Captain, thanks! And I did need to correct some of the crew early on about getting too neat with the trim. I reminded them that speed was more important than bag appeal.I’m going with 16.2 zips but you didn’t tell us what shed you put GM in. Was that your regular shed or the Smoo-shed? Inquiring minds like mine want to know. Lmao Congratulations on a great grow n harvest. And a round of applause for your Crew for coming together and knocking out the trimming. Wishing you n yours all the best n hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend. CL.

Thank you Mel!
I'm pretty happy with this one, thanks Keith!
Thank you GDB...I thought of you when I took it!
It damn well better get someone high after all the work this grow has been...thanks sb!
20oz? That would be crazy to me in 124 days! Thanks Carcass, and I've got that timer on all the fans ready to go. I was thinking 30 minutes (shortest my timer does) every 6 hours depending on the RH for the day.
Thanks BL, and

Thanks Age. I actually wasn't trying to reattach those tops when I hung them back on the plant.
Sure hope so marcus, thanks!

Thanks HG, and I'm glad you made it back for the harvest!
Thank you Grateful, and I have no doubt that you'll be taking down some chunk in a month or so.
Glad we determined that about your Smoo-shed Shedster and I’m looking forward to hearing from the Crews smoke report. Let me guess, it gets them high. Sound about right? LmaoJust in case anyone missed the post everyone below is referring to, it's here!

CL. 
I was going to ask you about exactly this. So the picture with the circled bud you took the lowest of….are you done on that branch now? I was wondering exactly how big up the branches you pinch? Like, you could pinch until only what will grow into one huge bud is left, or less. Hard to tell exactly how high you go. Also, at what point are you done? How much flower time is left when you say okay this is it? Sorry for all the questions, and thanks! Amazing plants as always.Greetings all for aminiTuesday mini-update!
First off, I did a bit of de-larfing of the Grandpa's Moonshine on Sunday (flip day 26), and this is all I removed:
I have to say that I think this is the stickiest plant I've ever had at 26 days in flower. I practically had to pry the buds off my fingers to make that pile. I decided to dry them and grind them to see if it gets anyone high, even at this early stage.
I have also mentioned that this plant has a different structure from my others, which is why I'm leaving so much on that I would normally consider larf. It's tough to get a picture of, but you might be able to see in this shot ↓ , and maybe it's unfamiliar to me because I didn't lollipop it during the recovery period and all plants would look like that (!), but it doesn't look like it would make one fat top cola if I took all that lower stuff off, so on it stays.
What I did do was remove the lowest flowers on those branches, circled here:
In 5KC news, I had to tie up some seriously flopping colas last night before I put it to bed, and the tiny black bugs seem to be living down in the res (not killed by the SNS 209 yet) so I spray the bucket with neem every morning. From what I can tell their next stage has tiny wings, so I'm thinking black root aphids. They don't seem to be on the stems as the lower third of the plant and the soil are coated with diatomaceous earth (it's never top watered so it remains powder on top).
I really can't wait to pull these pots apart after chop to see what the hell is going on down there!
That's it from me, and thanks for stopping by.
And naturally you’d unveil that puppy in whatever city or town has the next Biggest Pizza in the World contest! Lol.Just in case anyone missed the post everyone below is referring to, it's here!

Just WOW!
Congrats on the harvest!
My photo's teach lessons too, just not the same kind... I love when I look at a picture or two and have an epiphany!
I am sure your pictures do tell a lesson
