Suzy was harvested on Friday night. She ended up being 5 hangers, very little larf, and the biggest buds I've ever seen.
Of course, that means it was time to clean up the tent. I started by removing any little bits of bud, mostly from Suzy. I got pretty wet, as her huge nutrient straws were still working and every time I touched her she 'cried' on me.
Then I scooped out as much hydroton from the netposts as possible. Otherwise, when I try to remove the bucket lids it will go flying everywhere. As I did, the EZGro plug came right off. You could even see the original seed shell stuck to the plug.
Always the lest fun part of the grow, it took me several hours on Saturday to clean everything up, scrub it down, and dry it off. I still need to clean out the fans and net pots, but everything is ready for the next grow. Before I start the next grow, I'll put the humidifier in the tent and get it up to 90+ RH in there, just to make sure any pollen is deactivated. I do love it when the tent is all cleaned and ready for the next grow.
It may be a few weeks until I get the Bud Factory back in action. I'm getting a new 60A sub-panel put in the basement and I'll probably need to get this tent out of the way.
@Herbies Seeds has already hooked me up with some seeds for the next grow that I'm really looking forward to. And of course there will be some new
@VIVOSUN gear to play around with
Meanwhile, the drying closet is staying above 60% RH easily. I like harvesting in stages, this grow about a week apart. Just when the drying closet starts to get < 60% I put more buds in there to add humidity. I have the humidifier set to 60% just in case, but it has hardly been needed.
Sandy & Speck are now on day# 10 and I expect them to be ready to go into Grove bags in a couple of days, with Suzy a week behind. It's not very hard to tell them apart. Everything is smelling fantastic in there!
