Proof of Success

As a new grower and older, wiser over-achiever, I knew I was gonna smoke from my first harvest before it was ready and BOY AM I GLAD I DID!
Why? Because science!
A superior chef tastes the food as the dish progresses. Same goes for curing weed. If I really want seed to table, I gotta experience what each stage is - even knowing it's gonna be a bad hay-day ;)
I can't know what well-cured with my own hands is unless I know what not well-cured tastes like.
When it had achieved the 61% I was shooting for, my first crop weighed 1.25oz on my cooking scale (less than the 2.7 oz the bowl I weighed it in weighs, LOL) and it went into a jar yesterday morning.

I've been snagging a taste each day since it was dry enough to catch on fire, first thing in the morning, 3 or 4 days.
Holy mother nature. What a difference a day makes and it still has several to go.


This morning I misplaced my breakfast, lol.

ps: really wish I could share it with all of you because without every one of you, it wouldn't be this good.

I haven't yet sampled anything on a plant since I began growing. But have sampled fresh bud at the chop and then again occasionally during the cure. I have about an oz of my original grow left. Still is a nice smooth smoke at a little over a year old.
 
If I got "lost" in my "patch", stoned or no, I'd have a bigger problem than just being lost, LOL. I am burping my jar. Singular, as in one jar. (but the other plant is down now and hanging in the tent with the lights off - 72F steady and 50% rh)
 
Gotta tell ya AccidentalGardener I’ve discovered something about myself since I began to grow cannabis. I don’t want to hurt the plant. I came to this realization after reading the book What a Plant Knows. I talk to my plants and apologize when I pluck a leaf or a stem. And the anguish felt when topping them, well that requires some help from the herb itself, if you get my drift. :big-smile:
 
Yep. I can barely thin out the carrots. Deadheading the flowers is about as aggressive as I like to get. I talk to all the plants and an assortment of animals, too. I'm not out in the bush, either. I'm in a neighborhood near a large park and waterfall, so lots of animals pass through. This morning 3 deer and a raccoon in broad daylight. The neighbors think I am talking to myself and that's okay with me. Keeps 'em over in their yard, lol. :D
 
I had enough I was giving away qp's to friends, still have enough to last me till February and I'll have a new harvest soon, I'll probably make butter out of the rest of the old batch.
