The Dry & The Cure

[Tika]

in the thick of it: from the left;
6 jars 2 Misty kush including trays.not huge yield but sticky & firm .Still rotating in and out of her jars til I get a consistent mid-60 range.
Master kush 3 jars first plant jarring well with lower net 1 still to go
Super skunk 6 jars First plant/jars doing well. Cut up the second and heard that unmistakable "piling" in my tray (more like a .45 in my ear) she hermed!
Right jars trim and cook
2 Sour Diesel still to go
ambient temp 62/58 right about where I want it. Rotating 6 caliberIV s
if I get no more seeds then I will assume the one Super skunk ( a gift from a friends 10 free feminized) came funky.

contacted Seedsman regarding my order still not here: 3 Blue Dream & 3 Girl Scout Cookies XTRM (White Widow) plus freebie Original Skunk #1 & 3 BC God Bud Seeds (all fems of course) RESHIPPING..agh!
Waiting for Godot . Well indeed giving me time to a not germinate early and consider my plan and decide on mainlining.
thanks for the ear

Fortunate you are Tika, with some much good homegrown bounty! 🍷 Keep on stimulating our envy!! 😊

[Tika]

I like that saying Greenie for all and same to YOU and rockman I assure you I am not bragging-I literally have no one around who grows..just the family forum ( with the exception of my plumber and hydro guy who has never seen the space). Plumber says the only thing I lack is confidence (as I told Nebula & Sirius a wayyy back..he climbed around my veg, looked at under side of my leaves, sniffed my jars, looped my bud, checked my tent..) it is similar to being a niaeve painter..one just does it.
so ( sorry running a fever with endless sneezing) you peeps are again- very important to me and my learning curve has excellerated because of you.
much gratitude!!!

Tika, a beautiful bounty indeed. And the hermied skunk will just give you more seeds to play with, though maybe not, if prone to hermie. Sorry to hear you got the bug....I had it three weeks ago, went to doctor because I thought for sure it was strep. swab came back negative but took about 10 days to get over it. Hope you heal faster.

Are you back from wedding? I thought you were to be gone a week.

[Tika]

Hey Insom
Wedding not til next march so need to germ mid-January to punt into flower when I get back.
Bug is irritating but I should have known . It can't take 10 days in my case...my list is long.
No I won't grow a hermie LOL. God the sound of the seed hitting the tray is so....gak! AYFKM????
Hope all is well at your side?? Your plans?

Looks great! Just put a bow on my jar and Santa will get it for me.

Wow, a beautiful harvest! Congratulations, it looks like you ended up yielding a lot! Those LEDs are no joke!

[Tika]

Indeed I think the lights are proving themselves. Buds not huge but even the little Nugs are firm and glittered. And your LED..have you used it yet?

[NebulaHaze]

Sirius started some plants under his Advanced Platinum Series P900 LED but then life circumstances changed and we had to move, and even though the plants were doing great we had to toss them and put growing on hold until January after a holiday with the family

However, the one thing he really noted was the heat. The 4'x4 tent gets a LOT hotter with the LED than it did with the 600W HPS, and the LED wasn't even at full power yet (it was in vegetative mode so it was only using 279W!!!). That's probably at least partially because he couldn't air-cool the LED panel like the HPS (since LEDs don't have a hood), but the heat definitely makes it a lot more difficult to grow in a small space like a tent.

I know you used to use HPS, did you notice a temperature difference when you switched to LEDs?

I thought this was a music thread for a sec. Nice job!

I remember the cure from the 80s, but i can't remember the dry.... Musta been too high...

[Royal Nugs]

A great harvest! Sorry to hear about the complications. Can't keep a good grower down! Keep on fighting the good fight

I thought this was a music thread for a sec. Nice job!

I haven't heard a Cure song in a couple of years. You made me go you tube them Forgot how good they are.

[Budlofsky's Dinner]

You're welcome.

[insomniaczzz]

You're welcome.

Been listening non stop for 45 minutes now. They had some really fab songs. Wonder if they still tour......and what they look like now. LOL

It's marvelous, I feel like a caveman drying mine now. You did good 🎄

LOOKS FANTASTIC: CONGRATS!!! I'm curing Chemdawg from my first grow that ended on Nov. 4th. Following GWE's instructions on dry and cure, and no amonia smell!!! Love to see others' successes.
