2016 solo cup challenge redux RESULTS

[Gordo41]

Believe it or not, the plant I grow in the solo cup actually produced some nice buds and lots of it considering she spent the first month in a freaking 16 oz cup. Wtf?
I harvested her the other day and have been drying the buds for two days now. One more day and they will be ready to go into jars.
this is the NL auto. Don't know the weight yet, but i will comment here when I do.

Sweet ...I just bought my dehydrator with a fan I can run without heat ..how long in the dehydrator for the auto's on this grow?

[Gordo41]

I love my dehydrator. I trim my buds down small enough to fit between the trays. This allows for a more uniform drying. It usually take 3-4 days to dry completely.
every day I rotate the trays taking the placing the top tray on the bottom and so on everyday until the buds have reached the point where i can snap them apart.
if they are still soft,, i leave them for another day or so. It depends on how high the humidity is in the area around the dehydrator. Mine is in my garage so its cold and a little damp out there. I put it in the tent with the exhaust on to vent the smell out of the building.
I keep the temp of the dehydrator at about 80 deg.

[Gordo41]

Here's what I do for the trays so the buds don't fall through the try and it make it easier to remover the buds from the tray.
i get a Landry bag from Walmart and cut it to shape, and lay the buds out on it works great.

Here ya go,, the weigh in,,, 2.2oz or 60g which ever you like. And I for one am amazed at the yield from this auto NL that had a very restricted childhood.
grew up in a solo cup.
See the pic. I zero the scale with the empty bin,, then place the bin with the buds on the scale.

What a nice yield!!!

Great report!
Is that black doodle an original? Second pic?

[Gordo41]

Yes it is. I do a lot of that kind of stuff when I'm bored. Some times we sub for trivia night at a local bar, and i sit there doodling on the back of the place mat,, the waitresses always keep them. Might be worth something some day.
Thanks for asking.

[Tika]

Good doodle! Will be checking in soon

[Gordo41]

UPDATE: well after only a week of being in the jars I couldn't wait to see what it smoked like so last night i put just a pinch in my SSV and took 3 little hits.
It had a nice flaver but after 20 minutes I had no reaction from it. Later on as i sat on the back porch playing on my ipad, I suddenly realised I was fucking stoned.
never felt it coming on but I had this really intense body high that had my ears numb and ringing. This lasted for about 4 hrs so I called it a success even thou this was grown in a solo cup it still produces some nice buds.
Rock on.

[Gordo41]

Sounds like a plan, and your "FRIENDS" need to grow thier own weed and stop smoking up all you hard work.
I know it might sound harsh, but Ive had friends that would come over to "hang out" and smoke and go away with a baggie, but when I stoped growing for a year and ran out of weed my 'friends" stopped coming by,, and now that I have a freezer full I don't tell anyone about it. Good lunch with your grows.

[alltatup]

Ha ha ha!!! I know all about that kind of friend!!!! I definitely have had friends who evaporate when I tell them there's no weed!!! Good riddance.

The friends I'm referring to are poor former students who are still hustlin to make a buck, so I turn them on. Plus one friend my age who makes a generous donation for copping some medicine.

[Gordo41]

I have never sold any weed or even taken a donation,, I dont even give it away to my friends,, but,but I do have 3 people that have cancer and have a real need for weed,, and for them I give it freely.
