Orangeman's 1st log!

[horror business]

Orangeman, on the subject of the buds that you said have just as many mature trichomes on them, but the pistils are mostly white, and the buds aren't together...

Well, anyway, as the bud grows, it will grow many many more trichomes, that have the chance to start over. So, even if your initial trichomes are amber, but the buds aren't finished, that really doesn't matter, because like I said, as the buds fill out, it will just frost with trichomes.

Peace,

BTW, in november, for your next grow, you said this: "This time I will know the genetics of my plants and I already know they're all females."

That confused me, as I don't know how. Are you planning on cloning your plants now, and vegging them until November? Or are you purchasing female seeds? Or did you get a hermi flower that pollinated some buds?

Either way, I'll be looking forward to checking it out in November. Hopefully by that time, I'll have a completed grow diary as well.

But then again, if I'm correct, you want the purist sativa high possible, so you want to be harvesting fairly soon. I would suggest taking another sample bud, one that is completely mature, and test the potency, then decide if it's time to chop or not.

I don't want to cut the mature buds down yet because well if they are already doing excellent then I don't want to stop that lol. Even the little bit of trichomes it may thrown on in these last few days will help. As far as the bud maturity/yield goes I'm with you. I know I should let them fill out and mature but I love a certain high so the minute I see amber trichs, trust me I won't want to if they aren't finish but I'm gonna have to cut just to be safe. I just went down there and man I love looking at that plant. It's so freggin frosty. I had to post a pic of my favorite bud. I'm gonna save that one for last. Probably will be the last bud I ever smoke of my harvest.

Gonna let it cure but never touch it. God it looks so much more better in person lol. And it's obvious that one of those plants is going to have to live longer because even if the buds are mature those trichomes are barely visible and mostly all clear. I'm happy though because at least it finished filling in before the crystals started popping out so I'll be happy with both yield and high with it. As far as my next grow goes....well you'll see, just be sure not to forget about me lol. I swear I tried to flush them so much and I can't seem to get them to run off just clear water. It's always a little yellow so fuck it. I'm not even gonna try to flush anymore because I'm so fuckin frustrated. Last time like I said I spent from 12 am all the way up to 5 am trying to flush those things and STILL up to the last minute I never got just clear run off so what ever. If they taste a little like chemicals fuck it. Also next time I think I'm gonna get some Super Thrive to help the roots grow faster..every little bit helps . I don't think too many trichs will turn amber soon so if all goes well they both will go into the next week (10). I won't cut if I don't have to. I was aiming for a specific time but now that I'm here I rather get the best out of what I have rather than trying to harvest on a specific set date because I'm waaaay behind schedule lol.

A lot of the major growth happens in the last few weeks. I don't know exactly how much longer, but we need to hear from one of our Vets. I have heard around that you are looking for a descent amount of pistil browning. . .but again that is border line mature

[orangeman]

Yeah I'm watching both hairs and trichomes but which ever starts to mature first will determine what I do like I said. I don't want to cut too soon but I'm after a certain thing, but if the calyxes are half way reddish before that time happens then hey good for them then the flowers 'il be mature when they receive the chop lol.

Hey, O-man. Lookin' good. I bet you're READY to cut them girls down now, eh? Oh, if you didn't notice, there was a thread started in the lounge about you and why you don't go visit up there anymore. lol Thought I'd let ya know.

Oh, I didn't know that lol. I dunno I do go in the lounge but just occasionally. Also you're right. I am ready to cut. It's like fuckin' crack cocaine xD. I'm sittin here just so anxious and cringing and like C'MON! I want to cut, then I don't then I do. I almost took the scissors and did it last night. These last few days are going by so slow. Words of advice for regular smokers, don't flower your plants without a constant supply of bud already available to smoke or you might go crazy.

True that. You just need to find a Vaporizer and then do some judging!

Can I use a glass tube as a form of vaporizor? Like I have a test tube. If I put weed at the bottom and put a lighter to it can I inhale that?

[orangeman]

Quick question. When I harvest my plants would it be consider quick drying if I intentionally let them sit in the room with the dehumidifier making the room about 20-35%. Basically making the room very dry because I just let that sample bud sit in the room for just this day and it made the bud dry to the touch and the stems snap easily. I was happy with the quick results. Is there any negative effects not allowing them to dry naturally or what? Thing is this bud dried and the humidity was only about 50-55% so what should I do?
