New Caledonia finally came down, I would have liked to let it go a few more weeks to finish up, but i don't want it pollinating the Panama x PCK, I'm waiting on reversed Honduras to start dropping pollen to do that.
The buds cut are in a box 12 quart Mason jars come in, I'm guessing about an ounce. The frostyness of the buds is difficult to capture in an image.
Got a thermoelectric wine cooler for a drying box, still waiting on dehumidifier to be delivered so I can hook that and an inkbird finish it. I'm waiting to finish the box so I can harvest Honduras, I don't want to give the thermoelectric cooler more moisture than it can handle. Malawi is going to be coming down in a week, maybe 10 days.

Thank you, I appreciate the kind words!love your style, great show!
New Caledonia after drying, the haziest looking plant I've grown so far. Smells of some type leather maybe, not really sure how to describe it.
The Thai sticks fermenting, thanks to @Tangwena for sharing knowledge about cobbing and using yogurt maker https://www.icmag.com/threads/malawi-style-cob-curing.309936/
The first one I vacuum sealed, I learned I needed to only vac seal for a second or two, it really started twisting it up.

The 2 Panama x PCK
The older one has pinkish purple pistils at the base. The scents are somewhat lightly fruity sweet, fresh cleanness, and hint of menthol on the backend. Looks to be a very resinous one, expecting large yield.
Pollinated by Honduras reversed on one branch.

Hazeman chocolate thai 2.5 F4
Not so sure about this one, my excitement was tempered when I saw the other 4 plants showing very clear indica influence, but there was one N-sensitive girl among them, painfully slow in veg. This plant is easily a couple months old, and 2 weeks into flower.
I imagine I'll be pollinating the whole plant with the reversed Honduras and then decide on how much I like the smoke whether or not to pursue popping any of the offspring. I do have some cuts just in case I'm pleasantly surprised by the finished product

Your plants look very healthy Keif. I like those big ass buckets you have. Those are perfect for big mama plants. 
Thank you! It has been quite a process and learning curve to Say the least. Growing hybrids can really mask a lot of your deficiencies as a grower, because they adjust and keep on keeping on giving you some good smoke, but these sativas aren't as easy going, and make you step your game up, and after making those corrections to do good sativa runs, the hybrids really start to shine.Your plants look very healthy Keif.

I like the big buckets, giving them a good battery, plus I don't have to stress over watering every day. The only plant I've grown so far that the roots completely went through the bucket is the Honduras I harvested last week, usually they fill about the top half of it pretty solid. I do intend to run some smaller pots over the next several months doing a little pheno hunting, kind of nervous about deficiencies popping up, but I have bio bizz now, and a few other amendments to add when that happens.
Found these 3 seeds in Headband x TK bud I was breaking up tonight, so on hunch imma see what's up. I have 99% confidence it's from the herm New Caledonia, some of the best well known weed has been from bagseed, which may or may not have intersex traits.
This may be a pleasant surprise from reading forums, I found out about it from someone asking about some really good bud from back in the day that came in a Tuna can, and hazeman had a Tuna Kush. I won't be surprised if it's a half pound the way it's growing. I don't normally top plants, but this one was just begging to be topped when it was still basically a seedling.
The New generation, one Hashplant Haze x Kali China, two other ones didn't germinate, and 3 Golden Tiger x Panama, one of these is looking like its going to be big.
This will be my first time with pure Afghan Kush, it's nice seeing the building blocks of breeding. I recognize the scents from a lot of hybrids. This is turning out to be a really pretty plant, I'm hoping it has the effects I'm looking for, and from all the searching WOS Afghan seems to be the only one people agree on being narcotic, i would love a good night time get some zzzz's smoke. The only other plant I grew that would make you want to go to sleep was a Pyramid seeds line that haven't reproduced in about ten years, Osiris which was White Widow x AK47, one of the phenos you would smoke it and next thing you knew, you were waking up sitting up in the chair, maybe a couple hours later lol.

In the top photo on the left, you have a plant that turned yellow. Do you know what happened to cause that?
That's the New Caledonia that I thought was going to be close to finishing by now. Underestimating the plant is the cause of that, i was giving that one some supplemental feed until what I thought was about two thirds through flowering. That was a few weeks ago when I saw a few stigma recede on the lowers, but that's all, everything else is still really white.In the top photo on the left, you have a plant that turned yellow.

I've done the same thing more than once too. You are doing super. Thanks for sharing your work with us Friend.
Thank you, and you're welcome. It certainly happens, especially when you're dealing with a lot of sativas that arent displaying that need for a lot of food. Next time I'll be sure to run it in one of the bigger self watering black pots, they seem to be able to support a lot more growth compared to the 5 gallon buckets. I wanted to get more of those this year, but I never saw them in stock.I've done the same thing more than once too. You are doing super. Thanks for sharing your work with us Friend.
It's probably been six weeks since I broke the top off moving it around. Looking at how big the buds are getting, that's looking like it cost me at least an ounce.
I put 4 seeds from the broken New Caledonia top in soil this morning, I'm sure it's feminized New Caledonia.
Still trying to decide exactly the number of what seeds I'll be popping next. There was a mixup on my order, I ordered Panama x Malawi fem and Malawi x Panama regs,I wanted the MalPan in reg in case I find a good male in the heavier side of the combination. They're seeing if they have the correct pack in stock to see what will be done.
I have some Columbian Mango biche on the way, and 79 Xmas Bud. I'm thinking once I get the G-Unit out the veg tent, 3 have already sexed, 2 males 1 female, 7 total have been up-potted into final container, 6 still to show sex. Just waiting on Malawi to finish to squeeze them into flower.
I'm thinking since I have a big HBxTK and what's looking to be a very productive Tuna Kush, plus a handful of Sour D chances, I should have enough smoke to hold me over while running a bunch of long flowering sativas. So I'm going to start Ethiopa, 79 xmas, Acapulco Gold, Mango Biche, Old Timers Haze, and then possibly Malawi x Panama and Ethiopia x Malawi, but still undecided on those two or something else. Will start 4 seeds per a larger pot, let get big enough to clone tops, throw into flower to determine sex, kill the females, reverse the males, and by that time the G-units should be coming out the tent while the females have rooted long enough to go into flower, and by the time they have developed enough to catch some pollen, the males may be far enough along to determine ones to hit all the females with.
Edit: I definitely hope to find a good piney spruce Ethiopia and cross it with the 79 Xmas ibl, I think that would make a really nice pine with hybrid vigor

Your talent is obvious and the results you share here bring joy and laughter to a rainy day. You have got the fire!!!!!!!!! I’m following along. Your wine looks to be fantastic. I can’t wait……
Thank you very much for the kind words, I really appreciate it!
Well hell, cut the top off of one the GT x Panama, the big beastly looking one, and one side has female and the other is male. Not sure how long that would have taken to notice if I wasn't topping it.

Finally got the G Unit into flower tent over the weekend, ended up with 6 females, and one male that showed sex after all the females, so i decided to use him to make more seeds, and then yesterday I started 4 seeds each of Ethiopia, Acapulco Gold, Colombia Mango Biche, Double Chocolate Thai, Nangarhar Afghani x Panama Red, and 79 Xmas Bud.
Hoping to pair up an Ethiopian and Xmas Bud for some Pine tree hybrids, and hoping to find a Mango Biche to run across the Columbian Honduras i have. As always, Will see what expressions I get to determine breeding potential of them.
The 2 plants on the left are (Headband x TK ) x Honduras, and the 2 to the right of those I believe are (HBxTK) x New Caledonia herm

1100 grams wet into 3 gallons of wine should make around 28 375ml bottles. At 13% weight estimation of wet:dry material, leaves a little over 5 grams per bottle dry weight equivalent. Should provide a nice buzz without risking it being accidently overpowering at that strength.
Time will tell if it is any good, but it didnt just taste terrible when i sampled it, and will need to be back sweetened a little when bottling.
I let the shrooms steep for 2 days, drained, and Added bentonite clay to clarify. Need to order the 375ml bottles, and hopefully will have something worth bottling in about a month.
