first harvest

[simplematter]

Here is an unfortunately blurry picture of my harvest
after most of the manicuring has been done.

If the pics load at all I will be happy, I am going
to keep trying until I get some good pics.

The smoke is good, better than the average
commercial I am used to smoking. The
buds stink like, I dunno like bagweed
ought to be.

I have some better bagseed beans but
I am really want to order some better genetics.

I learned SOOOO much from this first grow.

The above scenario was created by a highly
medicated patient with schizophrenia of
the paranoid type.

Hope this uploads OK

Didn't see the pic, but congrats bud!

 

[simplematter]

well that didnt work

 

[simplematter]

OK cool

The cola bud standing up is full of crystals
but it's amazing how much wet pot shrinks

I am a little paranoid right now. I just did
the think I have always dreamed of and
now I am going to sit back, rethink, redesign
and replan my next effort. I have to get better
genetics but there are soooo many seed companies.
I will post some better in focus pics when
I can figure out how. This camera/corder
is a Sony but the stupid fucker does not'
have focus!

Anyway

Yeah, you'll lose about 3/4 of the wet weight. But, that's something that you'll get used to. It's feels good to smoke your own harvest and not have to buy from shady dealers. Congrats and here's to many more harvests in the future.

I used a jeweler's loupe with my cam, Here are a few more
that are i focus

 

[simplematter]

those turned out really well. The last are 2 clones I took of a female
just as it showed it's sex. Next I am going with a DWC bucket and
more soil. I wanna cool down for a month or 2 tho
I will use some better bagseed i just got and the clones to make
clones forever.

thanks

simple

yep, another one hooked on growin'

and they say pot ain't addictive

 

[whodair]

that bagseed looks like it has some indica, possibly skunk in it. just as good as the dutch seedbank strains

 

[FirstTracks]

congrats!

Indica? yes. The seeds I used were all out of the same
bag.

I only vegged for about a week before I flipped them.

2 of them didn't get taller than 6". The one long one
I posted a pic of was my prize one. It was one
short cola about 8" approx.

thanks alot! I grew these with CFL's. I got a 70w HPS for
a more varried spectrum for next time.

 

[sanke]

Stick with it though and it will pay off.

great start!! my first grow was under CFL's too , this brings me back

 

[daydreamer]

good job. you'll have fun and much satisfaction growin yer own

 

[simplematter]

My two mistakes were not letting them get that last 2 weeks of
finishing due to the fact that I thought they were finished
and once I went through the curing/drying process
I knew I needed more time to finish properly.

I am preparing for the restart of my passion, but I want
to harvest a fucking lb. atleast. I got a good 1/2O out of
this one and have FINE self/home grown to smoke today
and it was great but I still am going to have to hit the
streets to get any smoke till I can harvest in 90 days.

The link I posted is this guy who made a 6 pot DWC
system and used peter 20 20 20 with micro nutrients
I tried it with some random plant, used tap water
and grew a huge fucking bush. I had to pull it
but I am gonna try again with one of my clones

I want to know what you guys think of this
peters method, or anything else.

 

[simplematter]

I got 8 or so good joints out of the first reap.
and maybe about the same for what I dried
last night.

I have noticed that the high from my brothel
of green ladies that the high is super fucking
better than the "reg" that at least keeps me
sane.I smoked a joint of some from the largest
yielding and I am FUCKED UP and getting this
-I guess you guys would call it "couch lock"?

anyway thanks for the thanks and thanks!

I bought one of those big-ass alum. turkey
cooking pan, I made many holes in it and
put it above the heater vent. This is a good
way to dry small harvests.

I HAVE to acquire some seeds, because I
want to experience a total sativa high.
I will get the seeds soon.I have a month
before I can get set back up, but the
2nd go at this is gonna be much more
fruitful. I must take time to consider
and perceive what the ether is telling
me.




and be

Nice job, simplematter. Hope you enjoy growing as much as smoking.

 

[simplematter]

I do for sure. It becomes my job. I get up
feed my cats and doggy and then head to
the grow room to fiddle with this or that
