Lets Grow Trees 2021!

Yes my GG#4 got tiny spots on it of bud rot but i'm just plucking it out. It's down in the low 30's at my place overnight, still trying to get them done there sitting in 50f sunshine right now LOL. I see fields of hemp or ? still hanging on. Really pretty purpling in the leaf.
 
Yikes, your weather is cooler than ours. I think we have mostly been mid 40s f at night And mid to high 60s f during the day. I am just about in the window - an odd amber or two so I could harvest but hoping for more ambers first. Will see what the weather does to my bud rot situation and make the call.

Love the purple leaves, they really have the top shelf look!
 
Crazy weather here, chilly last night warm and raining this morning, once this moves out in a few days the temps drop and the air dries. Simply perfect for bud rot!
 
Wild Thing was chopped yesterday, it had been frosted on the last 2 mornings and was showing it. Frost at 47*F, WTF! Ok the area many many moons ago was a glacier, it ended in this spot, and is always 5* cooler than the rest of the property, which is 5* cooler than TIA (where the official reading comes from) if there is no wind.
This leaves only the Bruce Banner F4, hoping for a tad of purple on her, so far no go. She was also the first seed sprouted, and taking the longest to finish.
 
LOL i'm down to 1 Bubba Kush in the unheated green house tent outdoors. I look at her every few days and weep because she's in limbo she would of been a 1lb producer by the looks of her but she went way to long before flowering she just grew oh well guess we'll see how her genetics take to cold an wet now. So yes i'm in the same boat as you Rwise i don't see this one of mine going anywhere but into the pasture for the animals.
 
Harvest is certainly better than last years, though I filled more jars last year, this years buds are harder.
Now remember to dry it before jarring it so we dont end up with brown buds.
 
First time grower. Four plants - Blueberry, Blue Dream, Alien Technology and Gorilla Glue #4. The Blueberry got to 8 feet, and the other 3 topped out at 7.5 ft.

Got good yields (about 10-15 oz a plant with good size buds), lost a couple buds to bud rot, but got the majority of the crop in. Definitely will be going for better next year, but pretty happy for a first timer outdoors.

Just started harvesting the 2 trees I have left. I am speed harvesting because I can smell the plants 2 neighbourhoods away and I am starting to get a bit of side-eye from the neighbours. Hard to process a couple 13 ft tall plants with any kind of speed - I’ve been wondering how others can harvest as fast as they do. If anyone has tips to speed up the harvest/trim shout them out. Maybe time to start looking for a house in the country where I don’t have to worry about sensitive neighbours 🙂

I do the same for my outdoor grows. I set up a little table for when I want to sit down and hang the branches at a good height for trimming when I want to stretch my legs and do it standing up. Unfortunately, I was afraid there would be no short cuts, aside from maybe a bowl trimmer. Given how much of my stuff I use for edibles it wouldn’t bother me to use a bowl trimmer and maybe not get the same personalized manicure. By the end of each evening of trimming my back is killing me and to be able to speed it up would be a reasonable trade off. It is sooooo slowwwwww. Maybe I’ll bowl trim part of my harvests and hand trim a bit for gifting.
 
My back and neck, I hear ya’ but, no pain no gain I always say. I don’t mind hanging it leafy. They snap off easy when dry. Gives you a few days of waiting
 
Good for you getting them to go all the way. Looks like a pretty good year for you really lovely plants. Only thing i may do different next year for outdoor is less plants LOL if you do your own trimming by hand LOL. I like to keep mine shorter i'm getting too old to climb ladders.
 
I'm a lone harvester also DeadlyFruit i do pre trimming outdoors remove all bigger leaf, leave smaller suger leaf intact then cut into sections hang dry. I only grow 4 nowdays and i keep them short with topping and spreading them out. Hire a crew LOL
 
SoOrbudgal I am so leaning toward more manageable plants. I am happy to have a large harvest of course but everything about the large plants is more work. I remember talking to you about huge stinky plants for this grow… I have been there, bought the t-shirt and moved past! Small plants with moderately low smell is the next harvest! 🙂
 
Yes reminds me of how my late Italian Auntie bent over her sewing machine for hrs. She had a hump and could hardly lift her head up to look at you. So yes take them breaks and stretch and go get a bowl trimmer if you want no shame at all in that. I only make butter and do kief balls. I sit and roll golden kief in a plactic wrap hold it for hrs watching tv until it becomes a small marble. Yes it's slow but my hands do all my work.
