PRE-HARVEST UPDATE
I received the new 4" carbon filter today, a day earlier than expected, and setup the ventilation in the drying tent. The way I have everything rigged, it should be able to be put up in about 20-25 minutes and taken back down and packed back up in about 15-20 minutes. Storage of everything is really the biggest PITA but, then again, if I had a lot more room to be able to store it, I'd probably just leave it up and not store it, at all!
I'm pretty tempted to start harvesting tomorrow and, the way I change plans, it's always possible. But, I have some appointments scheduled for tomorrow morning and I do like to harvest early, so I'll probably wait until Wednesday and get up at "0-dark-thirty" to see if I can get 2-3 of the plants washed & hung by 8:00am, or so, and then the rest just after noon time.
It will be interesting to see how the yield numbers on this round turn out. Towards the beginning of the grow, I was pretty confident this round would beat the last round, especially since I let the colas get taller.
But, I don't think the colas, this round, are anywhere near as bulky as the last round. I had several buds from last round that were between 1/4 - 1/2 oz. each. I just don't see that on any of the plants this round, but maybe the additional height will make up for it?
Either way, I'm always more concerned with the quality than in squeaking an extra ounce or two of yield. I should have more than enough to get me through to the next harvest; and the quality certainly appears to be there!
Happy Harvests!
