I was very surprised too. I did realize that the haze were super dense and the AK-47 was heavy duty sticky but I should get half elbo and I was hoping for a Q. yes!

Ho! Hey, Ho, Hey, one of the NH I grew self seeded the lowest little buds, I have 12 seeds from cutting the buds from the stems. Serendipity, if the strain smokes as good as I expect it should. That AK-47 will take forever to dry, it's so friggin, STICKY-ICKY! :rastasmoke:
Put a piece on something low warm....the top of your grow light or something. Or a fan will help a bit.
Yeah, and there's a way you can quick dry a bud in the microwave. It's not the best way, but it has you smoking within days of harvest.
if you have forced hot air heating, you can put it by the register and dries and taste better imo...
THat will dry it good, but you wont get de-carbolaxation, hence the oven method I would recommend, try it! I didnt believe it either..."you want me to put my weed in the oven?!?! HELL no, it wont have shit left to smoke!" But it does the same thing as drying AND curing.Quote:

Whiskey is completely on. The shrinkage factor is extreme, but is about the best results ive gotten so far out of all i tried. But, be careful. If you over do it, it shrivels to a brittle nothin, that turns to dust if you squeeze it,LOL!
by comparison, the microwave oven method is about the worst results i've gotten in all my experimentation.
Rock:cool:
hey rock U should get a food dehydrator. that is what I use to dry and try my pre harvest samples.:D
it takes a bit long but it works so so so so dam good. becuse they don't ovet dry ur buds. they dry ur buds and heating them up to dry them.:thumbsup:
It's dry and is curing now. I will try the smoke 12/18 when I return from vacation but it won't be done until New Years. :>
I have a dehydrator for edible herbs but I slow dry the smoke. If I have a little nugget to dry I'll put it on the cable modem for a couple of hours.

shov, very nice job my friend. those sticky crystallized nugs look so tasty. I can almost smell the dank ak. the NH buds look damn good with all them crusty red hairs, crazy nice work :thumbsup::thumbsup:
hope your vacation is/goes well as your herb nears closer to it's demise :jointsmile:
i'll be back for the report, until then take care big guy.
mgm
I lie. I packed a bowl of AK today. It taste great and kicks ass, man! It's not ready yet though. You open the jar, it gets dry, you close the jar and it gets soft again.
thats funny.Quote:

the thoughts racin thru my head would sound like:
*yeah, i should let it cure, but, its dry, its beautiful, and its RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME*:jawdropper:
good luck with that:wtf::D
I have 3 oz of good indica though.
Wow shov! Those look awesome! Good luck hangin' in there till the cure is complete, that's a test of self discipline! Have a great holiday Mr. Shovelhandle!:jointsmile::thumbsup::)
Awesome "SH" and congrats on the bonus beans...As far as the cure goes,"all good things to those who wait"!!!:jointsmile:
Thanks rave
like I said, I have a little stash of BGX that I like. This 1/2 elbo will be nice. In a couple of weeks I start blooming three more NH clones that are doing very fine plus some seedlings of my fem BGX and Sweet Bud. So, I should have new photos within weeks.
I ordered some beans today as well. Blueberry (Dutch Passion) and some Mazar (Dutch Passion).
Just for being good. :)
Gorgeous haul Shov!! Two good strains ya picked! The parents of a very tasty Skywalker I had for a while.
good vibes
I was expecting allot but wowwwwwww.These are great looking buds. Congrats and happy smoking. :stoned:
thanks for checking it out, folks.
I will be continuing a grow log of 3 Neville's Haze clones along with two Sweet Bud seedlings and one of my BG hybrid (feminized) seedlings. The Sweet Bud are freebee beans that I know nothing about. They are very sativa looking though. They have all been resting while I went on vacation. Now they are under 216W of T-5 and 400W MH 24 hours/day. The clones were just transplanted to 5 gallon pails today. I plan to flip them in a week, I'm thinking. As soon as I get some photos I'll begin the new log.
Be Good

Thant's great, Weezer. Even if you have to learn by my mistakes. :stoned:
I'll keep posting the results.
ah, shovelhandle! glad to see you grew that ak-47!
looks great by the way! happy smoking bro :)
Well after eight weeks of drying and curing the herbs have improved to the point that I can give a smoke report. Sorry I can't define these subtle flavor and taste differences but it is very decent pot. They hold their own over my other strains.
Neville's Haze (from Marijuana-seeds*nl) on the left, AK-47 from Serious Seeds on the right. ( My camera doesn't macro well at all anymore, sorry)

Both are similar in effect, taste and aroma... I guess the environment and diet are the cause of that.
Both are good, stoney one hit pot. (though I seldom smoke one hit other than 'testing'). NH often has an energizing effect after an hour of buzz. The AK is more narcotic. Eyes get heavy, difficulty concentrating on a task. A few weeks ago I thought the pot was pretty much mids but it has tuned up a lot. So for effect I'd give them both 8/10, very good. Aroma is very mild, sweet (AK a little sweeter) when you break up the bud. 8/10. Flavor is mild also 8/10. I like them both.
Smoking them together or with some of my Z10 indica is even better.
They were grown together. I had two SweetBud that both turned male but didn't polinate. No nanners were found and I carefully checked each plant on a table every other day. Inspite of that the NH has a few seeds and I've found three in teh AK so far. The results of growing out these mystery seeds has been very good so far. 100% healthy females with no visible male parts.
Hey Shov!
That NH looks f.u.c.k.i.n. sexy man. anyone heard from opie?
good vibes
AK here I come!!!! Thanks for the report. And I turned some down a few weeks ago for a very good price! damn cannacom, let me down! So, glad it is back.
Nice eye candy! P/R :thumbsup:
