Hot off the presses

11 weeks and 2 days flowering. Not sure the vegging time.
At harvest, the colas in the picture weigh 29g, 27g, 38g, and 30g respectively for 124g. It might have been early. All the maturity signs were there. More so than my last little deal. I had to cut probably half this amount because of pollen sacs. Picture two is pre the great debauch. Picture three is post the great debauch that night. Little did I know.
Two more going to the flower chamber to veg for another week to get acclimated. Turn down the LED, too. I've learned a lot with the plants I've grown and GWE. As long as I don't go double male, I'll have at least one decent plant. That and defoliating every other night.

They've been hanging above my sink with a fan on them since last night.
These number are showing the weight of the colas; They represent weight in grams at harvest/after 12 hours/after 24, in order of cola in the first picture above.
29/21/16.5
27/20/16
38/27/22
30/21/17
The bigger the cola, the quicker it dried at first. Then the lost weight became fairly even between the heaviest and lightest after 24 hours.
The grassy smell isn't as strong as it was at first. When I pinch a bud, my fingers smell like good ol' reefer. Mmm... reefer...
 
Tonight's numbers: last night/this morning/tonight. In tenths of grams, tonight, as the weight loss slows down. It's going to kill me to finish trimming the buds from the stems. All that weight loss. I had a little bit in a bowl to see if harvesting the day after a single flush after using the GO Box would make for a sad Gingerbeard. The weed is not currently something special. But tastes nothing like squeezed sea animal guts in the GO Box. I was impatient and will flush properly and use molasses towards the end.

The T5 light in the picture is just to wash out the LED for the picture. Yeah, I guess I should have turned off the LED for a better picture.

Tonight's picture show the approximately 83 grams of moisture loss from the colas since harvest weight of 124 grams. That's 66%. Water was hard to see so I used cranberry/blueberry juice . It looks like I might be jarring numbers 1 and 4 tomorrow. I'm going to jar when the weight loss is, what, .03 grams in a 12 hour period. My 4% Bovidas are coming. Good timing. 2 and 3 might go on Friday. The picture also shows burners on my stove, FYI.
I haven't seen the RH any lower than 50 or higher than 62. The temperature in my house has been between 69 and 72 since hanging. Still a bit grassy.

last night/this morning/tonight-daily loss-percent daily loss

12/10.7/9.8-.9-.09%
11.5/10.0/8.8-1.2-.2%
15.7/13.6/12.0-1.6-.88%
12.1/10.4/9.6-.8-.08%

If my numbers are off, I've had several dabs in the last couple hours and am quite high.

After trimming, the final tally was 26 grams. Of which I blasted 10 grams. I got maybe 3 dabs. The flowers are jam packed full of seeds. Like the brown Mexican I got when I was a teenager and before someone introduced me to sensi. There were no sugar leaves. Trichomes were itty bitty but still had plenty of white heads.
All in all it was a good effort. I learned a lot. Patience was number one. Number two was to seriously consider going online for femmed seeds. The various bag seeds I'm working with are super hit and miss.
 
And in the end...
After blasting the last half of the weed I got real close to 2 grams of a real fine wax. There is a rubbery taste to it that doesn't linger or have any kind of rubber smell. I only got that on the second blast. Not the first.
The high has put me in slow motion. I'm moving like I'm tai-chi'ing. And feel like my body is slowly melting. I feel zero pain. Gonna pet my dog. Keep binging on 'The Last Kingdom'.
Blasting can turn even mediocre weed into a good concentrate.
