So, I fell victim to overeagerness - I sampled. Totally not worth it. I clipped a branch with a couple buds, which appeared to be getting fried from the lamp anyway. There was still some green bud on the branch, so it wasn't completely fried. Anyway, it was New Years Eve, and I was out of bud, and there it was just looking at me ... saying .... smoke me. It turned out to be a waste. After long attempts at trying to dry it in the microwave and then finally trying to vape what I got out of it, I got nothing, zip.

Another lesson learned, no sampling.

Attached are a few bud shots, most of which are not burned. It's starting to fill in in several places. I'm still frying about the top quarter of two of the plants. I am going to have to do some redesign of the cabinet for the next grow. I noticed a shot of the cabinet in invision's grow, and got an idea - the glass shelf. I think I have an old one sitting around here somewhere. I'm hoping that I can fit it in the cabinet as invision did, to rest the lamp on top of. I am also going to review other lighting options, perhaps a cooled light.

Back to patiently awaiting my crop to get done.
