Hi all, I am so excited to actually be harvesting. What a long haul it's been and I have learned so much and having lots of fun learning about these amazing plants.

I was reading up on the best way to determine when to harvest and basically came to the conclusing that it's all in the high. So I took a small bud and quick dried it using the toaster / tin foil method (works great) and wow, what a fantastic spacy headrush kind of high. I was high for over 4 hours and it was amazing. So I figure I want to get some now and I'll continue to grow the remaining 3 plants that I have so that I can see the difference and have two different kinds of weed, one that is social day time use and the other a sleeping night time type.

Here are some pictures of my first harvest. I have to hang it in the attic, there is proper ventalation and it does stay pretty cool at night and in the morning but it gets pretty warm in the late afternoon, oh well not much I can do about that. Humidity is about 20% so mold shouldn't be a problem.

I trimmed the fan leaves so now I guess I'll just wait until it's dry and go from there. I flushed it with a shitload of water a few days ago and the taste was pretty good considering I quick dried it. I think it will taste amazing after I cure it.

Let me know what you think.

somebody please reply to this..i'd like to see what the "experts" think..i would still consider myself a rook. but if i were to comment i would say it doesnt look quite ready..and the toaster is not the way to dry it..and it was never cured. so...i dunno, thats why i want to hear what everyone thinks.

lol the third picture in the first set is so funny. The more recent harvest is looking a lot nicer! Should have waited another few weeks but its understood patience is not always present.
