thanks for asking siscokid
Yeah in fact the nice looking budz were at least 50/40/10 amber/cloudy/clear with a really stony effect/slanted eyes/very red
and the trichs in the less dense budz were more like 50/50 amber/clear, which i cut down early because i realized that it got mostly pollinated and i figured that i might as well chop it because it would focus its attention on seeds rather than budz. which ended up being fine with me i got a ton of new seed and still 4 oz, you get high but you dont feel it right away. and the budz smell of orange/citrus. Now i know the really good looking bud hermied and produced male flowers, im sure that was due to light stress because they only occured on the bottom portion of the plant. but it pollinated the orange/citrus smelling plant. so im hoping that the seeds from it produce orange/citrus dense nuggats, im a noob and i've been doing alot of reading. lets hope so LOL
Nice looking harvest, looks like you have some very nice meds. on your hands. Great job and good luck on the new crop...
Another question, Is there something you did to this bud to make it so compact. I see a lot of buds that kind of look squared off and leaves compacted into the bud like that.
hey sonzor!! thanks i hope the next round goes as well. 8 oz off of two plants i can deal with every couple months
the budz grew compact as heck, i wish that more colas had grown to that thickness(scrogs are next for me), as far as the roundness, that happened because i didn't have mason jars right away (had to find the money) but i found them 12 for 8 bucks and moved the larger colas into the jar. i may have left them in jars too long because they were a little more moist than i thought, so they are back in the plastic bags(sandwich bags are breathable) and in a paper bag(double duty) and when they dry a little further i'll put them back in the mason jars. the second plant i cut down didn't have as dense of budz and dried much faster. they are forming nicely in the jars but definately not as dense, but smell fantastic!!! LOL i can't believe the major difference in buds and i hope that their kids(the new seedz) do as well!!
here are some pics, i am right in the middle of the gumby method of getting hash from my trim and leaves.
so i started out with half water. then i stirred for a half an hour(because i didn't have a blender/drill attachment. Then i brought it to sink fill the rest of the way with water and stirred another half an hour. I scooped out ice, then squeezed out the trim I have no idea how much trim i started with but tossed it afterwards, i thought about isopropyl alchohol method for the rest but that will have to wait for another day.
this is the gumbo bucket settling, i think i'm gonna let it go another 8 hours and nap, im patient and think the 4 hour settling time may be a little short. either way it can't hurt.
