WW1 New Year's Eve
Her pistils are like caramelized brown sugar and are curling in toward her swelling calyces, just about perfect. She gets flushed in 2 days for a week, Phd water and Sour D carbs

The cola below is my favorite. She has reached out over the edge of the screen and climbed her way toward the light about 6 inches. I call her "Due South" as that is her position on the screen. All WW1 colas are very dense and should bring high weight yield.

Thank you so much for your kind words. I have been doing this in the closet with only my wife knowing. It is a real relief to have comrades and input. I even entered WW1 in the plant of the month contest this morning. We'll see what everybody thinks...
 
Yeah, I understand what you mean. It's strange having such an engrossing hobby that we can't tell anyone about, but so wonderful to meet all kinds of nice folks who share our interest online!

And congrats on entering WW1! Way to go!
 
:drool:

Gorgeous!
 
WW2 has been the slower sister, longer to germinate, longer to root and as a result 6 days less in veg on grow 5. I worried about her just as if it were a child that was a little different. As it turns out, she's turned out pretty nice. Her finished weight won't be as good as WW1, but her popcorn samplings have been exquisite. I love her as much as I love her beautiful sister.

I have doubled up on the carbs, Sour D. I think that will fatten her colas up just fine for harvest.

WW2 New Year's Day

WW2 bottom of sugar leaves are loaded with crystals and very sticky. Good for making my canna caps.

And this is why WW is one of the most famous strains in the world and has been for 20 years -- those trichomes. Man.

What are canna caps, if you don't mind my asking?
 
Sweet Mother Of God Brother!!! Those are some seriously STICKY BUDZ there. Very Impressive and Proving once again, How Absolutely Gorgeous These Ladies Truly Are. So True that "Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder Eh?" Seriously, Thank You Kindly for sharing these Absolutely Marvelous Darlings. & I don't say this to everybody. (Billy Crystal-Saturday Night Live 1980/90 What a Decade for SNL It was.)
Sorry. side tracked, my bad. Those yet again re-enforce my decision to Grow the WW Fem's. I was hoping you might have a look @ my Rear Right Girl she's awfully Bushy & I believe in need of some Pro grow, but I'm a little concerned (whispering here) HE/SHE. You know how sensitive they can be. lol Hoping not a HERMI! Just wondering if you might have any insight here or suggestions. Should I take Her Out? Just In Case? or just pay super close att. for the next week or 2? How long did your Princesses stay in Veg?

Good Morning Glimmer

Cannabis Capsules. I like vaping and ingesting THC. I don't like the calories associated with most edibles or the hassle of baking, cooking, etc whenever I want to orally consume THC. A couple years ago I found a recipe to make capsules using coconut oil extracted THC on YouTube. I extract the THC two ways. First, I save all my vaping material in a jar which still has ample THC to extract and thanks to heating it up during vaping, the THCA (Non psychoactive) has been converted to THC (psychoactive). So the vaping material can be combined with organic coconut oil, heated up below boiling about 190 degrees for a few hours, filtered and strained then put into capsules. I use "00" sized veggie capsules which is a perfect dose for me. A pint jar of wasted vape material on the average makes me 20-28 capsules, depending on the batch.

The second method involves using dried sugar leaf trimmings. Since the THCA on the leaves is non psychoactive, it needs to be converted to THC by heating , decarboxylation. You may know that decarbing weed is necessary for cooking for the same reason. There are a lot of opinions on how long and how high a heat for decarbing, but my method decarbs at 250 degrees for 30 minutes. Then from there I follow the same recipe as the vaped material.

The coconut oil infused with THC can also be used for cooking most anything that requires oil or butter.

Maybe we should start our own WW lover's thread, eh? (i'm not even Canadian).

To be honest Glimmer, I have never had a hermi. I would keep a close eye and show them the door just as you would the males.

WW1 vegged 36 days until the screen was nearly full, WW2 only got 32 as she entered the room 6 days late.

WW1 vegged 38 days, my mistake
 
The past few days have been so busy I have had no time for my passion. Let me catch up here. Wednesday was day 56f for both the girls. I went ahead and harvested WW1c, what was left of her anyway. She got a full week flush but is getting taken early...just because! Hung her out to dry. WW1 and WW2 are different, but beautiful in their own ways. WW1 buds are more stout and very dense, loaded with crystals, beautiful coloring and a very very heady vape. I got lost in isle 3 at the grocery and thought I would never find the checkout. But when I did, I thought it was brilliant navigation on my part :)

WW1 bud overflowing the screen's edge. Loaded with crystals. See the crystals on the screen top surface.

WW2 Bud 6 inches

WW2 buds look fluffy, not as dense looking, but when you squeeze them they are surprisingly denser than they look. Her scent is more floral, when her buds are squeezed I smell pineapple overtones. Her effects are not as intense. It's a "creeper effect". Just when you think, well maybe you should have taken another hit it creeps up and you are so glad you didn't. I took a couple vapes off my portable and went to see my CPA. Got in the world's slowest crowded elevator and felt so conspicuous it was frightening...lol. You ever felt that?. Seemed like it took an hour before the door opened. And of course I was in the back...but I made it!

So on day 56 I extracted the nutes with my utility pump. and replaced with Phd water with carbs. I use max recommended Sour D carbs, 30 ml per gal.

The pumping gets tougher in late stage flower because the root systems are so prolific and interfere with intake. There have been a couple grows where I burn out a pump because the roots get sucked into the intake hose.

The portable ScrOGs are great because you can do stuff like this. Makes your plants extremely accessible.

We never waste a thing. My wife's garden and my indoor pepper plants get all the hand me down nutes. They love the high priced nutes. It's like caviar to them.
