So I finally jarred the last of my outdoor harvest today. 2 large plants grown from seed given to me by a friend, unknown if the strain has a name. It's quite sativa dominant and I had trouble keeping the plants topped so they wouldn't be visible over an 8' fence.
One of the plants was purple; one was green. While growing the purple one had a fruity, Kool-aid sort of smeel; the green one smelled like pepperoni. I pollinated the lower branches of each one with a male that grew from the same batch of seeds; that plant was huge, 8 feet tall after only 60 days. I used sunlight, water, and Miracle Gro bloom booster in the middle of flowering; nothing else. Not organic because of the Miracle-Gro, but quite pure enough for me.
Harvested, hung upside down for a week, and cured in jars using Rumpleforeskin's method detailed here on these forums, which I recommend highly as it is predictable, consistent, and yields good results. I didn't unjar to weigh them but if you assume that similar jars have similar tare weights, yield was 1.5 lbs of prime trimmed bud, a jarful of questionable looking stuff, about a half pound of mold and caterpillar infested buds, and a couple pounds of skuff. The stuff that's not in jars is destined for the hash bag.
I am using a Silver Surfer with this stuff pretty regularly. I love the SSV - beautiful, functional, easy to use, very easy on the lungs. A tiny amount is mind expanding. Colors look more vivid, anxiety is reduced, smells and flavors are stronger, I notice details more, I drive slower - not below the speed limit - and I am easier to deal with. I am a better person now than when I started this project.
Here are some braggin' photos:

So, pretty much mission accomplished. Much thanks and love to everyone on this site who helped, including posters from years ago whose threads I read but never commented on.
