Nice work Buck, seems like a successful season for you.

Definitely doing a GH next year, sick of being in the woods dodging bow hunters during a rain storm.

thanks man!

just got done trimming the first haul today. 46 trim-hours of work to get it all done, and it's not even half my greenhouse. it was one of my monsters and the two runts (minus most of their tops which i did earlier).

just going to let this all dry for another day or two before debranching it and doing it all over again.

when i'm in the middle of a long trim day, i never want those breaks to end. 5 minutes turns into 35 minutes real quickly.
Damn you for reminding me...lol...I was supposed to be back at it 15 minutes ago, your observation is very true in my case as well. I'm ready to give it up for the night to be honest...What a way to spend my day off this week...lol

sorry man.

i am so glad to be done this early tonight. i'm torn between transplanting clones that have just rooted or just resting for the night and trolling the shit out of romney lovers in the politics section.

You guys feel like smeegle from lord of the rings? All hunched over, like "my precious..." over the nugs your trimming. I feel like that after a long trim session.

ESPECIALLY since I'm trimming dry, so my nugs are going straight into jars...lol...Something about the instant gratification of being able to see the finished product is soo satisfying. Though as soon as I finished trimming tonight, I cut down 13 more plants(indoor)...I'm clearing out the indoor before I gotta start trimming the outdoor in 2-3 weeks...lol...It's like a never ending trim-fest this time of the year for me...And by the time I finish trimming the outdoor plants, I'll most likely have my next batch indoors in flower again...

i've been doing most of my trimming standing up. i put a couple u-hooks in the ceiling and tied string between them. go into the laundry room, grab a branch, and hang it on the string in the living room and get to work. i can trim while sitting if i grab some of the smaller branches.

something i've noticed is that the mites i had have all climbed to the top of the branch. so on my way from the laundry room to the living room, i stop at the kitchen sink and wipe/rinse off the mite party at the top of the branch. i guess they decided to make it easy for me to get them all off. very considerate of the mites, it was the least they could do after worrying me to death last month.

That's a lot of miserable tedious work. Hat's off to you. I hate trimming for more than 2 hours.
not so miserable until after the tenth or twelfth hour for me. but tedious the whole time. i try to grab different types of branches to mix it up.

how could a thread of this magnitude be rated at only two stars??? :?


lookin great bucky!!! callouses be damned!
thanks.

if you think a two star on this thread is brutal, check out my visitor messages page. i can drive people who are easily angered to insanity.

Lol mixing it up with different looking branches, been there! It's like, "oh this one looks unique, I'm very intrigued by the shape of this cola."

Good pull ub. But a quick question. Even though you are growing legally from the perspective of only having enough plants, aren't you a little timid about having that much weight? I don't know the laws in your state, but we also have a law restricting an individual to a total weight limit. I mean to bring this up because you mention in your posts including the choppers flying over, that you were standing outside with your papers.

the limit here for one person with four patients total is six pounds.

i had no idea i was going to exceed expectations like i am doing. but even if i pull 12 pounds (looking more like 10 at this point), most of it will be given away. i'll provide a year supply for myself, my wife, and my neighbors who helped me keep guard. whatever i have left over will be given away for cost of supplies and utilities used in production.

i always do my best to keep within the limits, and so harvest time is a pretty sharing time. i did not do this alone, many helped me along the way. you need to reward the good people that help.

Hey bro, it might be a good idea to move that cat liter box out of your cure room, you definitely don't want the cat shit and piss stinking up those nice plants, just saying.
