Hahaha! It made me laugh Keith. I'm tearing down most of the grow before my trip, so there won't be anything for them to survive in. Lol! When I had mites I ended the cycle by making them an ingredient in FHO
All of these harvests are destined for oil production following two weeks in the cold. No better way to end an infestation than making them part of the medicine.
How sweet that you already started hitting the music festivals. Not that I'm surprised, mind you. Music is in your DNA.
Good evening

5:
You noticed - Sunday's are extra-affectionate.
Insects in the indoor garden must think they found heaven. Lol!
I believe I sent it home with Hash Hound. He's fighting thrips, and I seem to recall giving it to him and saying "I can get some from you if I ever need any." Then I promptly forgot all about the conversation. Lol!
Good evening everyone
It's been a long day. Thankfully, I took a break in the middle and went for a walk along the river and a light lunch with my dear friend, which gave me a much-needed dose of human interaction. Lol! Four plants in one day....I believe the last time I did that was an emergency teardown.
HARVEST REPORT: Multi-Harvest of Devil's Carnivals and Jamaicans
Thank goodness most of this is going into cobs and oils, which frees me from the rigors of a fine trim
I don't wear gloves, because I don't do a close trim, I clip off or pull off the entire leaf and seperate them into fans and sugar leaves. I've become pretty adept at keeping the fingers clean, but when you work with Devil's Carnival you're going to get oily. It's sticky work, but somebody's gotta do it. Lol!
Half of DC 1.3 will be cobbed day after tomorrow, right after I harvest Carnival 4.6. The rest went into bags to dry low and slo with the other girls harvested today.
Devil's Carnival 1.3 (Day 122, flip + 65)
Jamaican 1.4 (Day 86, flip + 48), Jamacian 1.5 (Day 82, flip + 53), and Devil's Carnival 1.5 (Day 118, flip + 53)
After drying for about four hours buds were clipped into bags and dropped into the crisper drawer for the next two weeks.
Most of the Jamaicans will become acid-cannabinoid infused oil to begin the dosing regimen intended to treat the daughter's liver condition. I haven't approached her yet about the possibility of dropping some vegetarian meals into the menu, but we'll get there eventually. Until then we up the cannabinoid diversity.
Twice the container size = twice the harvest. That doesn't hold true as you go up in container size, or at least it didn't in my garden. The one-gallon size has given the most consistent results.
In my garden part of the yield limitation is what I grow. Devil's Carnival isn't a big yielder, but it's one of the most potent chemovars I grow and it makes a fine pain oil.
The gallery grows.
"Environment. Environment. Environment."
I hear Doc in my ear all the time. That won't stop when I stop using the kit. Lol! Heat did me in again, and I'll get it worked out somehow. I haven't yet given it my full focus. So far it hasn't hurt my supply chain enough to be painful, and I have no ego, so I feel no remorse. I'm tired of inviting pests into my garden though, so it
will change.
I'm satisfied with these numbers and the time invested in the plants. The future challenge, now that I have my basic chemovars lined up, is to find creative ways to increase yield and quality while still having fun.
One of the reasons I decided to cob the DC was so I could have it hanging in the hall. This girl has a unique fragrance. I bagged her first to preserve as much of that fragrance as possible. Having the second half of the plant to pass as I wander in and out of the kitchen is a joy like no other.
Both of these chemovars have become favorite regular dancers under my flowering lights. I can't wait to see what Dan and his crew at Timber have in mind for the next class.
Three more harvests to go before I leave. Carn on Tuesday, Jamaican 1.3 next week, Black D.O.G. as soon as she's ready. It gets more quiet every day.
I don't know about you, but after all that I'm ready for a blistering buzz. I'm two brownies in today, but four plants down in one day is cause for extra celebration. Join me?
