Harvested most of the Frisian Dew today and hung it to dry. Most of the harvest are popcorn buds or smaller buds, and a few bigger ones, hanging on the right side of the drying rack.

It would have benefited from some more weeks of fattening up. So I've left a bunch of the smallest buds on the plant and put it back outside. Worst case? I lose buds I couldn't be bothered harvesting. Best case? They fatten up and survive without bud rot and I can harvest them in a few weeks. :hump:

Did 3 buckets worth of budwashing, one with hydrogen peroxide, but surprisingly very little dirt or bugs or anything. I guess the week of non-stop rain has washed off the worst.

Now just have to dial in the drying room.

The Early Skunk, starting to look pretty nice.

Yeah it rains so much here I see budwashing as pointless some places you might need it more like in a dry dusty environment or whatever here it is so windy and wet nature does it for you

Early Skunk is stealing the show. Looks dank.

Frisian Duck is fattening up. I'm surprised they're this slow. At this pace it will take at least 2 or 3 weeks to finish

Same. They're both starting to look really nice. Somehow the Early Skunk is the best-looking of all the plants. And it had the least care and attention and just sat in the ground.

Could be luck of the draw or just the better genetics for your particular spot suppose if you run one or two early skunk next year and see if it does as well if it does then your probably onto a winner assuming it smokes good cos outdoors it's all about what works for you that is what matters most

Might do just that. Good idea.

Next year will be 3 autos and 1 photoperiod. I like the idea of finishing in early September before all the rain but after all the strongest sun. Early skunk could be the photoperiod if it "wins" this year on taste/effects. :eyesmoke:

Also bud best way is to spread your bets with autos semi autos/earlys and then also full on photos s for the later finish some years one does better than the others

Do you know how early the earliest, early versions are? Because I did consider it, I feel like no matter what photoperiod I pick it will be late in my climate. Like the Frisian Dew is supposed to be "early" but would still be going rn if it wasn't for budrot.

Mighty mite mighty passion any of the Nordic types and stuff like that I was talking about rather than F1 fast versions cos with those it's luck of the draw depending what pheno it is and what auto is used in the cross that determines how long it takes then again I know a few who had luck with sad fast and cream caramel fast outdoors over here if you wanna go that way those two might be worth a look bud
