An American Dream White Picket Fences.

[BrassNwood]

10 liters of recovered alcohol, 4 gallons of bud scraps. 1 industrial grade potato ricer.

Fill the Jar, Add the booze, shake 5 seconds, press out, repeat.

4 of the 6 I started with.

Not bad but more to do, another 3 gallons awaits besides this.

The wet weed has 2 bottles (1.75 ltr each) trapped in this that I'll recover later when the pot still is up and running.

Cleaned up the seedlings. New faces looking up at me. Forest Gump first to break ground.

I always admire your willingness to share your dry ice extraction procedure BNW. Some day we'll look back and say I remember the guy that came up with that technique.

 

[BrassNwood]

Koda

Veg plants under light.

Not as dry as I feared this all got stripped from the branches

Partial bucket from a month ago was ready to jar. 6 filled.

All 3 plants on the corner are down.

Todays harvest.

The prior week hanging plants are still a bit too wet to leave in a bucket or jars so a few more days like this should do.

 

[Timj]

Nice plants and harvest BNW.

Dearly love what you have done here. Have a twenty year old collection of half a dozen potato
squeezers that I trashed doing the same as you, and I sure never thought I was doing anything
original. Best of wishes for many positive outcomes with such as this, seeing this made me feel
wonderful, thank you so for having shared it.

 

[BrassNwood]

I'll get on this early tomorrow as I've only got a couple of days here before we run back up the mountain.

Shoulda fertilized when I set them outside. I'll get on that too. I've most of a 5 gal bucket ready to jar and the hanging plants are more than ready to be stripped.

 

[BrassNwood]

Alcohol scrubbed and hot soapy water washed enough jars to empty the bucket.

Dry and ready to strip.

I knew i needed that bucket for something.

Back to harvesting. Another Koda dead branch. I knew this was going over but didn't have time to clean it before we left last week.

 

[BrassNwood]

So heavy.... mmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Random dead branch on another Koda.

10 hours of scissor work.

2 more done. I'll be back at it at 0 dark something tomorrow.

 

[BrassNwood]

Trimming and trimming and...

Took a smoke break and roasted some hash.

15 here

and 15 there.

A long drizzle of lecitihn

Back from decarb, 3 tablespoons of Coconut oil each. (15ml)

Filled in the rest of this side.

3 more to tackle.

 

[BrassNwood]

Started at 05:00

All down and just that sack of tiny buds and fan leaves.

Ran a 3rd line to hold it all.

Time to replant.

 

[Swamp Thang]

Holy Mackerel. There is enough harvested bud hanging in that dry room to last me for a decade. That is a massive haul of prime bud. Absolutely gigantic in scale

 

[BrassNwood]

Pulled all the stumps and dropped the next set in the holes and got the lights all rigged.

 

[BrassNwood]

Low humidity and a need to leave town put a faster dry then I like on the last of the hanging plants. Jars all alcohol and hot water washed before filling.

 

[BrassNwood]

Waiting on the porch when we got back from our little road trip to Fallbrook for an afternoon of wine tasting and ....

Deep watered the newly planted veggers under the lights. A few more 80+ days like today and they'll be putting on some growth. West side.

East side.

When ii feel these are transplantable, I'll get them in the ground against the garage wall.

A few more. I think all but 3 of the potted plants are regular seeds so I expect a few will be male. I have to poke some bases for rockwool cubes and see where the clones are.

 

[Swamp Thang]

Back in the day, Fallbrook was renowned for some of the finest connoisseur-grade bud in SoCal. I know because I was there partaking of that delicacy

 

[BrassNwood]

I think I've got the seals dealt with.

Circa 1947 we think.

Veg plants

East side

From way over here.

 

[BrassNwood]

Time to reduce some Tincture

With the Gas stove still leaking I went back to the underpowered propane. Cardboard house to hold the heat.

A 1 gallon paint straining sock and I washed the remains and ran them for a fifth of recovered alcohol. I've done better.

Hit the market for 4 jugs of 80 proof cheap store vodka and ran that off as well since the still was all set up.

 

[BrassNwood]

Transplanted and light on them.

Veg is progressing.

 

[mike-or-ozzy]

Nice work @BrassNwood, thanks for all the nice pics well documented.

 

[BrassNwood]

Night shots before we left town again.

Juiced everybody with some alaskan fish goo.

The warm temps are getting the veg on and the plan is to kill the lights Jan1st and harvest this set mid March.
