OK...finally I cut the other one down this morning. It flowered for 63 days. Might have been able to stretch it out, but the first batch is pretty stony already, so maybe this one won't get me so comatose

I gave her some water on Wed or Thurs, so it's not as wet as the first harvest. This one, after trim, weighed in at 235g (the first one was 205g and really wet).

First harvest is already dry and curing. Weight as of now is 56g... add in the 5g i gave away plus at least another 5g smoked, so anywhere between 60-70g from that one ugly girl. She's starting to lose that wet grass smell, and it's a really sweet and pungent smell now. Still burping the jar a little every now and then to get the nugs a little dryer.

From the looks of things, I think I'll be Scrog'n again
It's a pretty big pain in the ass, but it's worth the extra grams for sure. Honestly, I was pretty pessimistic during the whole grow, but the results so far have been quite surprising, especially in terms of yield. My goal was 100g, later I was hoping for 80g, now it looks like I'll have at least 120g... but I'll update with the final weight once this one is dry.

Here's a few pics from just before harvest and after. I'm gonna hang them for a couple days, then use paper bag, then into glass jars. (Sorry the pics kinda suck)

Starting an internship in Amsterdam at the end of July... depending on what kind of place we find, my growing might be on an extended break

But, I don't think I'll be short of good weed anytime soon

Thanks Shov and Killer

I basically started college all over again when I came here to Finland... part of my curriculum includes a 100- working day "practical training" experience. Cool thing is that I can do it anywhere in the world basically, and I'll receive money from my school and the Finnish government to pay for everything Socialism ain't all that bad (I'm sure my opinion will change once I have to start paying taxes though )

Very difficult to find an apartment though Growing might not be an option until next year

For sure

I can get a little paranoid at times... I don't think I would ever grow in the U.S. with your laws. Here, you get fine if you get caught. They also take away your grow equipment, which would piss me off more than the fine!

Anyways, we'll see. Growing in Amsterdam isn't too risky, since by law they just take your plants away if they find them...

I just played catch up with your grow log. Looks delicious! If your "ugly" girl looked like that, I can't wait to see the "pretty" girl lol. I'm looking forward to reading a smoke report. Well done!

Did you top your first grow or these 2 when you LST???? I have grown once indoors and once outdoors but never topped and never LST'D...I got some good money seeds and i have grown up and i been researching....I love your daughters hope mine look like that...I germinated and put few of my seeds in some soil on may 5th they are still babies but i wanted to know about the Lst please get back to me when you can it would be great Thanks man!!!

Hey those pics of girls you found were they topped or LST'D??? By the way those are beautys

Thanks for stopping in again, 420! Final yield and smoke reports should be coming this weekend...

gotta go and see what you have been up to lately



jlve- Welcome and thank you for the kind words!

No, I have not "topped" any of my plants.... at least in the way I understand topping, which is to cut off the top growth. I don't really see the point of irreversibly damaging the plant... However, it's said that topping is a must with some strains, but I don't really know why they wouldn't LST instead. It might be because topping is simple: one snip, and you are done. Great if you have a lot of plants. But, in my case, I had plenty of time to train the girls with both the lst and scrog. It's said that the plant needs 2 weeks to recover from topping, while mine would always start growing for the light again only a few hours after LST.

In pic 4 (post #32), you can however see that I took off everything underneath the canopy. The theory was to get rid of bud sites that would not fully develop, so the plant could use more energy toward the top. I also removed the leaves in the hopes to get more airflow around the plants. The leaves were pretty much just stacked one on top of the other under the screen... not getting light and restricting airflow. Not really sure, though, how easily a plant can choke itself in SCROG, so I might skip the trimming next time and see what happens.

I wouldn't hesitate to LST... even if they are expensive seeds. Pretty hard to screw it up... even if you snap the main stem, you can just give it some support, and it will repair itself in time.

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask if you still have questions, and I will do my best to answer them for you

Hey thanks for getting back to me...I'm not that experiendced in any scrog methods but i am going to try the Lst method.... I have 5 gallon buckets but until they grow more and after a few transplanting then they will be in the 5 gallon buckets...But i was wondering when i should start Lst??? I was told i could start when the plant reached like 3 or 4 nodes... Also when i start do i just tie like the top of the plant and make it like a U shape facing the ground???Get back to me when you can and also ill be looking at your pics to kind of get a better idea of things...Kind of copy you!!Great log though man!!!

No problem

I start at about 5 nodes. Then tie nylon string to the plant a node or two from the top and gently bend the main stem so that the top is about parallel to the ground, no more than that. Don't tie it too tight! That first tie may be thicker than your thumb when the plant gets mature.

After a while, the top turns itself upwards towards the light, and the plant will have a slight S shape to it. Once it has grown another node or two, tie it down again. After a couple times, the new growth from the lower nodes will catch up to the top. Then you just continue to tie down the highest growth and try to make the canopy as flat and wide as possible (as long as it fits your space, lighting, etc.)

I transplant 4 times, so each time I have to untie the strings from the buckets. I actually used duct tape this time to attach the string to the bucket and it worked fine, didn't have to drill holes. I'll even cut the old strings so they don't strangle the plant and re-tie them.

In the first link in my sig there are some more explanations of LST in posts #15 and #17. Good luck and let us know how it goes

Sorry for long wait everyone. Since harvest I have been quite lazy

So, I just weighed the second batch. 55g. Add that to the first harvest which has about the same, 55-60g. So, I'm guessing my final yield (without me smoking anything) would be around 110g to 120g... which is not bad considering I have 3.5 sq.ft. of growing space. That's more than an ounce per square foot.

I was a little surprised by the yield of the second one... thought it would be much more. You can see the two jars, the one on the left is the new one. Looks like one has much more, but they weigh almost the same. Maybe I should have left it for another week...

I've been burping both of the jars now only once or twice a week. They seem pretty dry and smoke well, and smell great also. Might just leave them like they are now, and wait for the curing to make them even better.


As for the smoke report... well... what can I really say. They have a very sweet and pungent aroma in the jars, which stinks up the room if you open them. The smoke itself also has a little sweetness to it. It's not too harsh either like the last time. The curing really makes the difference. The highs from the two are pretty much the same. It starts to hit you after a couple puffs, and quickly builds up. A lot of times I put out my joint as soon as it starts to come on, because it's really like a trainwreck. The "back" of the high comes a little later. Very relaxing but goes more to the dome than you might think for a strain that GH calls an "indica"

No vape report unfortunately I've never been one who spends much money on smoking devices... I actually prefer joints. It does hit nicely out of my friends bong though
