I live in an extremely dry climate and although I prefer to pack up my jars at the right time, that window is short and sometimes I’m at work when I’d like to be loading my jars. I think they help if your plant is in the dryer end of the cure zone which happens to me a lot. It’s not ideal. The best option for me is to grow super dense phenos that take longer to dry, so I have a bigger cure zone window and can just cure naturally. Lighter buds can be too dry to cure just at room temp with no fan in two days where I live, and I’ve had to make a lot of lighter buds into butter because they dropped below the cure zone while I was at work.
Wet or dry trim?

So looks like i probably won’t even need to hit the GOG x Zawtz with super thrive because after the transplant they’re absolutely booming. Probably will still end up hitting them with some super thrive the next watering just to help the roots to start booming. The two TT’s are doing good as well, but they still have a while before they can get transplanted. Probably shouldn’t have popped the two TT ‘s, because it’s going to be super crowded in that tent. Might throw one of them outside, as well as some of the Gorillapops i got going from Envy. We’ll see though.

I have the opposite issue. Wet coastal climate. I have to avoid varieties that grow large and dense colas, sadly. I would need a sealed room with spore filters in order to prevent rot. You are/were a mushroom guy so you understand better than most what sort of nasty little things are floating unseen in the air, especially in humid places.
Definitely. It’s kind of ironic. I always read these warnings about certain strains that get so dense they’re prone to rot. I love that I can easily grow those super dense buds out here without worrying about mold, but having tents that range between 20-30% humidity presents its own sets of problems. Like soil getting so dry that it locks out water and everything just runs down the side of the pot, or buds drying too quickly to cure properly.

Especially since they dry outside in. I like to “sweat” them in bags too before jarring. So like 3 waves of trim in all. You must be in the southwest too!
I’m in Albuquerque. It’s like Denver elevation wise but even drier lol. I’ve got two paper shopping bags full of buds from my outdoor harvest that dried too quickly and now can only be made into edibles, unless I can find someone out here to blast it.

The crazy thing about NM is that as progressive as we are, we’re now the last state in the southwest not to have recreational (Except for Utah which is a special case, Mormons and mind altering substances, etc). Our medical program is legit and heavily enrolled in. The license to grow your own is extremely easy to get. The only thing that really sucks is how expensive wax is in dispensaries. We were apparently going to pass a recreational program in the state legislature before covid screwed everything up. I don’t know why we didn’t just put it on the ballot this year.

I know, live down in Alamogordo! Hahahaha
Nice. Even hotter and drier than here! It’s gotta be a challenge. I need to stop growing my outdoor plants in the ground because I think that’s what makes the buds too light and I didn’t have any problems with the ones I grew outside in pots. I think I’ll finally have a handle on the outdoor growing next year, as well as some really fire phenos, finally.

I think it’s the caliche soil, do you amend the spot you plant in? I always cut the size of rootball with a potting soil to make it retain water and nutrients and is more penetrable by the roots. It does freeze there sooner than here but outdoor does really well down here, I do some with my dad over in cruces almost always does really well. You could do 3 outdoor runs per year here if you stage it right! I just do it to keep him full and he loves to grow and likes to learn the “best practice”.
I know right, rec should have went through. They are trying too hard to control who gets production licenses. It’s so hard to get into the industry here, licensing is outrageous if you can even get a hearing. Hopefully in January! The people already voted to move forward with rec, I guess we’ll see. Too bad they didn’t double the plant count with the unit doubling this month.

I live right on the edge of the Rio Grande and my soil is super hard clay. I did dig out a pit and add a bunch of good soil to it, but I think next year I’m just going to sink some big fabric pots most of the way into the ground.

The licensing is bullshit out here. I read one bill that addressed that really nicely and I think it would have passed, but covid ruined everything. I really hope they do it in the next session and keep the “micro farmer” license provision in too. It’s way past time. Plus having to pay $30-40 for a half gram of wax is completely ridiculous. I have to drive clear up to Durango for good deals. Black market wax here is always bad. We need to open the market up to more concentrate producers in a big way.

Anyway the jibba jabba just keeps impressing me. She’s gonna get nice and purple. I think she’s got about 4 weeks to go still, and has really started getting showy in the past couple days. 5FD1AB07-C440-4C49-B1E1-B282550BA48E.jpeg

Lol plant counts. I remember those back in the days . Have you ever had anyone show up to your place?

Never, and neither has anyone else I know that has the license. They have to give you 24hrs notice, and I don’t think they’re doing that at all during covid. 4 flowering plants is a limit I could work with, but the 12 seedling limit is the one that I have more trouble with. I keep bugging my girlfriend to get her license too, to double our plant count, but now our landlord has covid so we can’t take any paperwork for him to sign. Just a complete mess lol.

Sounds about right, there should be a cut out for seedlings and clones plus double the plant count. I think I can get that increase pretty easy though. I wanted my wife to do the same, she said she would this summer. Next time the doc is in I’ll get the increase, $35.m
