Rantings and Ravings

Thanks, aCBD. It was a happy harvest.

I have a couple of pounds of trim, old bud and shake that I've collected over the last couple of years. This week I'm going to concentrate it into bubble hash.

First though, it's cloning time. The little room is cleaned and ready to go.

Fun times ahead
Bubble Hash.. the words alone are making me drool over here.
Much success and keep us posted.

Here's the clones 24 hours after cutting. They laid over within an hour of cutting but are starting to stand up again. I thought I did a pretty good job cutting and planting so I'm quite optimistic. A clone failure now would change my plans dramatically.

I couldn't find all of my trim but managed to process about 1 1/2 pounds of trim, shake and old unwanted bud. The other 1/2 pound is burried in one of our freezers and will turn up eventually. I only used 3 bags, the 220, 73 and 25 micron mesh. 90% came from the 73 and the rest from the 25.

Looks like about half an ounce. I can't wait to smoke some....

I went ahead and cleared out the undergrowth. They're close to where I want them and I'll trim here and there to increase air flow around the plants and help push growth to to plant tops. They look pretty good but were hurting during the last 10 days in the cramped little room. They'll perk up when they realize it's full on flowering time.

I've been smoking the Iced Skunk for a few days now. It provides a nice buzz and tastes good. Not kushy and not particularly skunky. My wife says it has a bit of a skunky smell but not much. I'm enjoying it a lot.

The final weight of the seed crop was 522 grams, well above my 450g goal. Looking at the clones, I'm expecting a larger crop due to more tops and fully mature plants going ito flower. I'm happy with the overall quality of the dried and curing buds and I'm relieved to be refilling my reserves. So far, everything has gone smoothly with no surprises.

I smoked a couple of hash reefers yesterday. I love hash!! I chopped it up with a razor blade when it was wet and fresh and then rechopped it again with a credit card when mostly dry. I may press half of it into a chunk but it's nice and convenient to mix and roll with tobacco when it's finely chopped.

I gave up smoking cigarettes several years ago but I still use them in my hash reefers. I tried mixing it with weed, but the flavor of the hash is overpowered by the weed flavor and it seems to be just an extra strong weed reefer. I get 2 or 3 hash reefers per cigarette so not a lot of tobacco. It's sure nice to have a little hash on hand for a change.
