And there was much rejoicing in the mud-filled streets as the bare-footed hill dwellers converged from miles around.

Are you going to do like me and sit there in the dark, watching them dry?

And you saw what today at HD? It's probably just me, but I couldn't exactly tell from the photo.

And nice going!

So I've harvested 2/8 plants so far.

93.9g and 106.9g is what I've got so far wet. How much % weight does wet weed lose? Is it 75%?

My girlfriend is happily trimming and pruning and manicuring away, she seems to have found the way she can help me in my grows haha :dance:

We have a lot of hash trim so far, now I'm looking for a way to make hash out of a coffee grinder and lots of ice?

I went to a party last night and shared some stories about growing mmj with a random guy I met. We shared a bowl from my bubbler and my own grow (feels awesome to smoke what you grow) then he packed a little wooden pipe with hash from his own grow.

That was a fun night haha.

Opie,

Sorry I didn't see your thread, I took too long taking pictures and stuff.

The sign says "Weedhound" in the picture, I circled it this time.

Well, back to trimming :jointsmile:

So my third plant had 96.5g in it and my fourth plant had 178.5g wet! Wow that one was in the back, maybe the back ones will be bigger? Hmm that gets me thinking about lighting and such.

I'm looking for general % weight loss between wet and dry, anyone know?

EDIT: I forgot to mention, when I first put the buds onto my scale, it said ERROR. Lol, I had to divide it in half and then add them because my scale maxes at 150g :D

I need a bigger scale

:stoned:

:smokin:

:bigsmoke:

:S5:

So I searched and found that it can range from 50%-86%.

Hmm, not too standard then, is it? lol

any new pix of UR girls?

hey CM, really happy for u dude, almost makes me wanna try that hyrdo thing, but startup costs, setup, relearning the wet way instead. uggg.

but you did great man!!!

ok, im no expert but, from what ive read all over , yeah, % loss wet to dry, but im thinkin ur 85 may be high. maybe 55-75%, prolly also depends on how much lumber on the scale.
either way, its lookin like ur around 1.5 z or better per plant, wow man, just wow, i'm real happy for u!!!!

Here is a couple pictures. The first one is my most un-trained plant. She's that way because she is in the back, so I didn't like to train her too much. Plus, she had room to grow :thumbsup: You can see that plant in front of her is the hermie. She/He has flowers literally on the stem haha

The second is a picture of my hash trim so far. I only put stems w/ trichomes and leaves with trichomes in it; I think it will make a good amount of hash :jointsmile:

So, the wet weight for my Arctic Sun in total is 735.9g from 6 plants. I am going to go help my gf prune the Atomic Haze. Prepare for disappointing news though I bet the hermie's gonna be light :(

Start up costs? Like what, $70 for an awesome homemade DWC and nutrients? Those? Or were you referring to the additional $25 PH pen? Yeah it can get damn expensive to double your yield.

That first chop.....:eek:

Then you look around at all your new weed.....that YOU grew....:woohoo: :yippee:

That's the joy of growing. :thumbsup:
