The Amethyst x Northernlights plant "Tuffy" came down in two parts. Half of her came down in the evening on the 27th and the bottom the morning of the 28th. He wanted to help, so many of the buds (he trimmed 2-3 branches to my 1) have a little more green than I wanted, but heck, I was real happy for the help. She covered two screens 25 x 50 inches. He made a couple plates up of the popcorn buds he didnt want to mess with.
Trichs over all 25% amber.
Our Monster, met her end this morning, or is it the beginning?
She has possibly the hardest buds in the garden. She felt like she was three pounds as she went downstairs to be hung and laid on the screen.
The cold was beginning to purple the tips of her bud leaves.
As I trimmed her, I checked the trichs, and she is maybe ten percent amber. Thick with Very Cloudy Trichs, more under the leaves than on top. I didnt take pics of her in her final trim, by the time I got done with her...I had been handling her all day.
She was the seed sister to the purple plant above. Amethyst x NorthernLights
looks great green thumbs up :thumbsup: is that plate for me? heheQuote:

Got a question,
I got rain comming on Friday. This isnt gonna hurt my buds that are still out there is it? Spose to really come down. Am thinking of moving them inside with a hand truck....or put a tarp over the garden frame...What do you think? I sure dont want bud rot at this point. I want to leave the clones out for at least another two weeks. If I had a light, I would bring them in untill they were done, but I dont.
holy fucken moly. that is a very harvest so far. how many mo U got to go?
hella harvest man. woow.
I would go with a clear tarp so that they will atleast get some light. and no rain.
thats me.:thumbsup:

Just think about stress and climate change when you do move them indoors. But if you can. Do it. Its alot of work though im sure so if you can tarp that garden frame up and just watch for the mold. You should be fine :thumbsup:
Okay, clear tarp it is. I love my plants but.....I hate the thot of them inside. Bugs you know. If I could I would dry them outside.
And as for how many....
hum.
I am allowed 12 in flower...
so...
I took down three....
no...
three this week.
There were three I took early, cause I can only have 12 in flower.
There is at least aproximately...
2 Sugar Granddaddy Purple, clones
2 Mango, one from seed one clone from her.
5 Purps left, two are my LST attempt
and somewhere out there, is a clone from the Sugar Grandaddy purple who flowered in the cloner and I am trying to get some seeds from her, tho I dont think that is working out. She is cute tho, bout nine inches high and packed full of bud.
all total, 12.
Today You will find below
The Purps from BC Seed Company, I bought a year ago last spring. She is the sweet mama plant to my "new clone" purps. Her Trichs are mostly cloudy and maybe 10-15% amber. She looks alot like the Amethyst x NorthernLights but she is not as dark purple. She took me ten hours (with smoke breaks and a half hour for lunch) to clip up and I never did finish with the last clip. Gonna take a lesson and let her dry for a couple days then finish her. After yesterday and today, I am so HAPPY that I am not harvesting agian for at least a week. The "new clone" purps, I want to let go till they are heavy into the amber as I can stand to wait. Frost will be a problem very soon, along with the rain this weekend.
Thank Goodness for Fiskars Sissors......and Medical MJ.
Inbud your plants look frosty delicious. Great job on those girls.
I too am watching the weather wondering what i am going to do. I dont have a structure up anymore to throw a tarp over. Where i am it is calling for HEAVY rain. A few ladies have huge colas and a the others are very dense plants that i am afraid of water getting stuck inside the bud. I think i will need to chop most of them because moving them would be a little dangerous due to prying eyes.
It is a real shame because they look like they have a week left, currently 5-10% amber. and next week is forecast nothing but blue skies.:(
I am going to tarp the ones that i can, with the tools i have, and chop the others. Its all gonna be all right:thumbsup:
I am gonna take down one more later today, mango. And pray for the rest. The other half doesnt want to tarp or bring them in, he says rain for one day. He is watching a different weather channel then me I guess. I hear storms are stacking up out in the Pacific and they are heading our way. All coudy this morning here. May have to light a fire in the next few days.
I wish my "new clones" were turning amber, I would take them. So far just cloudy trichs, cant find an amber one anywhere, but hey have one more week, I think, before they start to turn.
Hold the Rain, Hold the Frost, I WANT IT MY WAY!
