holy schnikies.... the crystals are dripping off the bud.... yummy. got to find a job in California and build mt Cruzer Greenhouse. Bravo Cruzer
If she smokes as good as she looks your gonna be higher than a weather balloon fair play outstanding bravo:clap::clap::clap::clap:
Very nice! That's what I call some BUDS. Are you doing a running total on the entire grow? I wanna say 12lbs. 5oz.
Long as my arm I tell ya, Wheres cutman now? LOL
OK I got your guess, I think its high but duly noted.

Thanks guys, yea so many trichomes it's unreal. She reminds me of a train wreck grow I had but a lot more. Mt. Cruzer. I like it! LOL.
Honestly I couldn't wait to trim her. Gonna give Blue Dream a run for her money alright. Oh, BTW The Blue Dream is a good day smoke. (if you don't over do it) nice buzz and I can function alright.

Back to work. (I love my job)

Fuckin A cruzer. Mashin out the trim days quickly, we are. You're right on BD, don't over do it if you have things to do. It may be a very introspective Sativa high to begin with but it'll quickly have you stoned-face after a few extra tokes. I'm still sailing on a little bit from last round.. I like to burn one and get all my house work busted out. Can't wait for this round's BD stash though. It's going to be much better...It still has nothing on that good ol outdoor you've got racked up there.The flavor and aroma probably squash my best indoor BD any day.

Ha! Fuckin A I'm bustin it out, I got it setup all around my recliner so I can take my time but just not stop but for smoke breaks and check here. That blueberry took me 7 hours. All in a good days work. At first I didnt like trimming dry but the blueberry didnt get much light so it had weird buds. This is a different story, the buds are huge and have sucked the leaf dry so the leaf stems snap off and I use the back of the scissors to scrape the bud then a couple snips on top and I'm done.

Funny thing about taste I learned. I participated in Earls Nutrient challenge.
10 of us all grew the same strain, seeds all supplied by Earl, A widow hybrid, we all used different lights and nutes and swapped samples. Well that was the idea, I only got to sample Earls but I'll tell you, I would swear it was different stuff. Didn't taste similar at all! We all used HPS so I gotta figure the nutrient is what made the difference in taste.
Similar stone but totally different taste.

Well, back to work.

I've been trimmin up a storm myself. I've cut half my cabinet crop out and trimmed it all up, plus my buddy was mad at his girlfriend so he brought a couple giant boxes of greenhouse Head Band branches. We had loads of fun with that. Of course he wanted to get piss drunk and do stupid shit because his GF this and that bla bla, etc..Anyway, we ended up on the beach with a huge fire and trimmed buds there for a few hours. I left half of The Black un-manicured too see how she drys that way..I wish I'd done all of it like that in retrospect. It's a very leafy Indica and trimming was tricky. I cut up more than I wanted to but oh well.
It's funny, I was approached by a buddy who wanted to do a comparison similar to what Earl and you guys tested but ended up not doing it because I'd scrutinize too much lol. I can't be a part of something like that because keeping a control group how it's supposed to be and growing the way I want will "clash"..About your BD, I was actually making a comparison to indoor versus outdoor. Outdoor definately takes the cake for complex terpene development and diversity of cannabinoids. Sure, indoor can be much stronger but not as good over-all. Though I can be blasted from two bongloads, I'd rather have to hit it one more time if it means it'll taste better.

OK, got her done. Took me two days but Casey Jones is cut and in paper bags.
A couple times I stopped because I saw what I thought was mold but it was amber trichomes on the inside of the buds. Nice surprise.
Anyway I dont think I got any guesses on weight for her. She came in at 952 gm. Some of the most awesome bud I have ever seen.

I got a ladder up to the blue cheese and a damp rag and pinched spider mites and webs off the top of three of her top colas, Cut two that had mold and cleaned her up a little.The tie downs became tie ups. We are in for a bit of a cool off, been high 80"s suppose to drop to low 70"s Not gonna take her yet, gonna let her ripen up some.

Took Bubba down, gonna cut her up and weigh her tomorrow. Dam, nothing like growing under the sun.

Will you ever be provided the results of the test. Are you all providing feedback and the results to be made public. I'd love to see the nutes impact

:clap::clap::clap::clap: 952 ain't shabby broski.. My tie downs ended in tie ups as well; my BDs were tied down branch by branch but it became counter-productive once the buds got heavy. Now they're strung up on the light chains..
And you got that right, ain't nothin like raisin some sensi under the Sun.

Sure, I update everyday. Thanks.

just read about blue dream being spider mites dream strain...
Now ya tell me.
Na, JK. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Just start with neem eairler and use some SM-20 in the res.

Ouch! I know how you feel. I have a condition that thins the skin on my hands, knuckles included. Ya know how you can brush you knuckle like on the stucco on the side of a house and knock the skin off? I can do it just putting my hands in my pockets. Every two years I need treatment. Actually the buds were all huge so it made it go faster.

We did it at CC if there is any more info you can fin it there. search Earl or nutrient challenge.

For Sure!

LOL! My Jack Russells have to be kept out of the grow room because they love it too. I left the door open one time while I was cleaning up the tent and turned around to see a 4 gallon pot on its side with 3/4ths of the plant in the dogs mouth....root ball and dirt hanging out. Never again.

How do you add moisture back to them? Meaning...I know how to do it...but what is your preferred method? I normally just toss a green leaf off a current veg'ing plant in. But always interested in trying new tips/tricks.
Over here, I can just let them sit outside over night, and they feel like I never even dried it, lol

looking dankity fuckin stankity bruh!
looks like you sprinkled it with meth crystals. amazing!

I hear ya man.
There is just no more room on Casey Jones buds for any more trichomes. It just blows me away.

Over here, I can just let them sit outside over night, and they feel like I never even dried it, lol
Hum, Not a bad idea, leave them open outside overnight to moisten them up a bit.
I'll have to watch my nighttime RH levels but I may try it.

That's a hell of a lot of reading for one sitting. Hope you had something to blaze while you were at it. It took me months to write it. Thanks man, glad to help.

OK, I got bubba cut up and in bags yesterday, she will go into jars tomorrow. She had more mold then the blueberry did. No cats on her though, just the size of the buds stopped airflow and mold was forming at the base of the buds on the stems, I was lucky and caught it in time, only lost about 1/2 oz. So Bubba came to 430 grams. She is gonna use up the last of my jars so I placed an order for more. I got high hopes for the blue cheese.

I forgot to mention the blueberry, I got 365 gm out of her with twice the amount of trim to bubble as any other plant. So, Blueberry and Casey Jones are ready to go to my co-op. I keep an oz of each and donate the rest. C.Y.A. man. ya never know.

Heres a shot of them breathing, I let them sit open for 1/2 hour then back in the cab. I haven't seen any moisture, buds are still dry. I think that has to do with the paper bags. Most people will hang, clip off the buds and put them right into jars. I put them into paper bags for a couple days before jars and very seldom need to dry them out a second time.

Check out Casey, you can see the difference in color, its the trichomes.



The 3 jars on the left are the Blueberry.



Kinda sad to see them go but it works out good for me.
I don't make any money on them but I can get the meds I need all year long from three different co-ops on account. Some of you probably think I am crazy but I dont need the risks of having a large quantity here. Some people would kill for this shit. Besides, most of you know how you can develop a tolerance to the same meds over and over. This gives me a variety that is much more effective.​
