My First Time: AK47 & Gold Bar Kush

[Radogast]

This is getting to be like watching grass grow. Hoping that I can harvest soon. I'll get some pics tomorrow evening.

I ended up smoking all of that sample Friday night before I felt much of an effect. Reminded me of the night the ex and I went to a neighbors and drank too much tequila, then tried some old acid he had. He said he had weed but I can't remember if he found it or if I tried it. I didn't think I was messed up until after getting lucky in the neighbors bathroom. It was raining that night and the suggestion that I should go pee took over. I ended up on their front porch for hours without pants on watching the rain.

watching grass grow - I know, that's why I prefer veg to flower!


BTW - for over drying, they make turkey bags to seal in all the smells while baking. It won't stop someone from curiously opening the oven

I like how you discretely left out who you got lucky with and indiscretely forced me to imagine you with no pants.


I often find I'm a lot furher gone when I stand up than I thought I was when I was sitting down.

I'll be sitting on the floor, typing away madly, and then need to go to another room, stand up and nearly fall over I'm so high! Always catches me off guard. If you'd told me anyone could be this productive while this high I wouldn't have believed you.

However, I make it a point to not play with heavy equipment when I'm blitzed.

The (older) kids outsmoke me - I forget about stealth within the family sometimes

We never did stealthy with our children. Smoked right out in the open as a normal part of life. Our daughter used to play on the floor of the smoke-filled room. She maintains that the secondhand smoke was probably what kept her from being suicidal as a teen. She didn't try that trick until we moved in with her grandmother.

If I'd known then what I do now she'd have been on a cannabinoid therapy as an young child. Then we wouldn't have to take years to acclimate her to what normal feels like.

MrGreene, she looks so close to being done I'm tempted to show up and harvest her myself. You're definately within a week or two at most. It could be any time now.

 

[MrGreene]

Trying to stand up got to me Friday night. I was stumbling and tripping on everything on every trip to the bathroom.

Getting lucky was with the wife (now ex). The neighbor never said anything that I can remember about any of that. If some guy came over here and spent the evening with only a shirt on, I'd have to say something. That night at the neighbors was over twenty years ago.

Last night I was going to mention planting grass seed then realized I have grass growing in the tents. Lmao. Good thing I didn't mention pink pantyhose like I read about on another thread. That could lead to me telling some stories.

I better pick up some turkey bags soon. I'll get pics up tonight and check for amber again. Heck, I'll watch for amber all day just in case she's a hottie.

To be fair, the neighbor did feed you acid. Either he was in no position to complain - or that was his nirmal

Telling stories will happen, this is still your first half year with us

Sue, you know you're welcome here any time. Being here for the first harvest would be amazing.

I think it was his normal. The ex never would help with planting flowers or other yard work until he moved away. Said she always felt like he was watching. He probably was. She had a nickname for him. Creepy Joe or something like that.

I found out I'm a decent looking guy in recent years. I never knew or even wondered. I also found out I can look like a hot chick.

I found out I'm a decent looking guy in recent years..

During the divorce I found out I was very attractive to ladies with a Santa Claus fetish - there were more than I would have imagined

Also attractive to gay men into 'bears' I didn't explore that option

I don't think I'm capable of the Santa Claus image. Never had long hair or a beard. Tried to grow my hair out a couple of times and it got too hot the first time and the boss told me to get a hair cut the second time.

I've had two women that I've never met ask me out this week. They seem to come in waves ready to drown you. I think one is already making wedding plans in her head. You never know what you'll run across out there.

 

[MrGreene]

I took a few pics of AK47 tonight. I think her pistils are fading on most of the buds. I rotated her after the pics. I think the buds that were easiest to take pics of had the most white pistils. After turning her she looks to have a lot less white ones.

The remaining AK clone might have missed a watering or three along the way since she isn't sitting directly on the swick. I watered both plants tonight. She seems to be farther along to me.

Little C99 is growing so fast. I need to put her in a bigger pot soon and give her some more training. I'm thinking about switching her to flower when I harvest AK. I already have one clone of C99 that seems to be doing well.

I'm with SweetSue.

You are in the harvest window with AK47 - Now, a few days from now, but not any later.

Do you hve trimming scissors?

I have a pair of corona brand pruning shears, and some of those harbor freight scissors. Do you think I'll do OK with those or should I pick up something else?

Corona makes lots of shears, but I am picturing bypass pruning shears - those are good for lopping off small branches such as the branches and trunks of cannabis plants.

I can't picture your harbor freight scissors.

I suggest you purchase dedicated trimming scissors.

If you do a search on "hydro trimming scissors" you will see a bunch of scissors with thin blades that meet at a point - most of them with green or gray handles. You want something similar to those to remove the fan leaves from the stalks, the tips of sugar leaves, and (at some point) the buds from the stalks. The key elements are small sharp tips (straight or curved) and comfortable in your hand.

Many folks do a 'dispensary' trim where all leaves that stick out are trimmed close to the bud, setting aside the leaves with sugary trichomes to make bubble hash. I don't do that. I trim off the brown tips of the sugar leaves and the leaves or parts of leaves that don't have sugary trichomes. I think those leaves that are trimmed off in a 'dispensary' trim are the best part of the plant to smoke and vape - even better than the actual buds.


If you don't have these trimming scissors, the most common similar scissors are embroidery scissors in fabric stores or hobby stores. If your fingers are large like mine, you may have trouble fitting them into loop handles, which is part of the reason spring loaded trimming scissors are popular. The cheap green and gray scissors in all the grow shops work fine and stay reasonably sharp for a long time. The pointy tip is more important than sharpness. I've used embroidery scissors. If they fit, I think they are ever better to use than official trimming scissors. But I end up using the green handle scissors more because they are always available. Your taste may vary.


I like to wear nitrile goves when trimming multiple plants or very large plants. The resin from the trichomes gets on the gloves instead of your fingers - the resin on the scissors and the fingers of the gloves can be scraped into a little ball known as finger hash or scissor hash. This is a premium smokable - similar to kief.

Bypass shears for larger branches

Trimming scissors for fan leaves and such

 

[MrGreene]

Maybe this collection will get the job done for now. I didn't see hydro trimming scissors at lowes. I found some 6" scissors and a new pair of bypass pruners with nonstick blade. The harbor freight scissors are on the far left (OK....at the top since the pic rotated when I uploaded it here). They're actually pretty durable and only cost 99 cents.

 

[MrGreene]

Dang Rad, those pics make me want to come harvest that for you.

 

[MrGreene]

A few Last pics of AK before harvesting. I might hold off until tomorrow night and make sure that there aren't any objections.

 

[Gbmore Grow]

If you haven't, or able to, I would let her sit in total darkness for a day or two.

 

[Gbmore Grow]

Then chop.

Thanks GG. I hadn't thought about that. She has still been on 18/6. I'll cut the lights off in a few minutes.
