Her pistils are starting to shrivel away. Even though she's still pushing out several new ones on top. But I've seen this before and asume it has to do with the amount of nutrients which are still available because of the PK Booster Compost tea in combination with the Bio PK 5-8. Both are amazing products and can kick a plant in overdrive.

She's not as frosty as the Wedding or as was the Port & Stilton, but I already smoked a bud from the seed mother and I know that kicked my ass, so looks might be deceiving on this one you guys 💪

Down lower there are still buds with plenty of fresh pistils...

Looking at the trichomes I'm calling it very, very close...Couple of days. 🤏

On the left side there are plenty of trichomes which are turning a more café-laté like color...

I have always felt that a trichome which has this darker white, almost yellow/green, is the ripest you can get it.
From then on it's downhill for the THC-A molecule...🗻⛹️‍♂️

Oh, you're more then welcome buddy :cheers:
This weekend the Double Grape x Toof Decay is coming down. She's ready to rock 'n roll baby :woohoo1:
1689344111811 _small.jpg


She is sticky, she's greasy and rock hard...
1689344111807 _small.jpg


This is gonna be a pleasure to trim @stan_mephisto. Just remove the fan leaves and trim the tips of the sugar leaves...
1689344111804 _small.jpg


One nice and frosty cola. :hump:
1689344111801 _small.jpg


Finally this Mephisto's Wedding is starting to fill out. She'll probably need another week or maybe two. Yup, that's what I thought when I saw the bud pictures...
1689344111828 _small.jpg


Have a look at them buds. Small as they are, the calyx's could not be more tightly packed with trichomes then these... :shooty:
1689344111824 _small.jpg


Since she's gonna be ready by the end of the month I'm going to let her have the time she needs, but she's coming down before August arrives :drunks:

@Redeye Master, Thanks for the rep buddy!! :cheers:
About the humidity in the greenhouse. Ever since I'm only doing Organic and stopped with the Hydroponic stuff, humidity has gone down. This has probably got to do with the fact that occasionally I had a plug and the entire 200L barrel was pumped empty and spilled on the concrete slab. Which soaked up the water and raised humidity inside to a near 100% continuous. These days the plants reside in fabric or plastic pots and I'm watering by means of a slow trickle (250ml/min). So I can decide plant by plant which needs how much water and add a timer for that, two, three times a day if needbe. And the good thing is, I don't even have to be home for that. :pass:
 
Oh yeah, I also had a first taste of a small Mephisto's Wedding bud, which was dry to the touch. It wasn't perfectly dry as my grinder did have some issues grinding it and I felt there was still some flexibility in the bud. But, the smoke was...pfieuw...Amazing. A very nice weed, on which I did my best to finish the first joint in one sitting as I normally do. This time it took me over an hour to finish. But I did finish, stoned as f#(k...Very nice indeed and what I was after.
By the time I went back indoors the munchies creeped up on me and I had to eat something. Granted I didn't eat today, but then again...
I just smoked a second joint (half 'n half, like Raymond says ;) ) and it went down a lot easier. But....I am frekkin' wasted. So I bid you all farewell and goodbye...I said goodbye :toke:

Day 71 - Harvest Double Grape x Toof Decay
Hey Friends :cheers:



Today (Saturday) the Double Grape x Toof Decay came down. I think she's given the highest return of all the ladies. Feel like I'm going to get me two jars of primo bud to enjoy in the coming months.

Trimmed all of them buds like this as we're after the trichomes my friends 💧

Since there's so much of her, I'm probably going to press me some of this for later use. :thumbsup:

All of a sudden it became to dark to continue inside the greenhouse...So I finished this bud and collected all my stuff and continued in the patio. 👌

Also the Mephisto's Wedding buds where dry, so they got jarred up. Kinda disappointed in the return from this plant. Not in the amount of trichomes, as this plant produced so much of it!! It's just plain ridiculous :yoinks:
I am actually, while I'm writing this remembering that there's still an entire lower part of the plant which got pollinated and is still in the soil. So yeah, let me refrase my above conclusion. This plant is an amazing cultivar and I've enjoyed growing it. The smell is like vanilla creme filled waffles and she's absolutely covered in trichomes. The part of the plant that got harvested for my enjoyment gave me a very nice return and I still have four branches which need to get pulled from the soil, but I first need to go back in this thread and look up when exactly, I did pollinate those buds and then see when I can pull these from the soil. :weed::wiz:

OK Fez!:biggrin:
Alright, I did a test vape of Forgotten Cookies X Strawberry Nuggets yesterday, and it whacked me hard! It was a quick dry, but it tasted very very good! Is it gonna be outstanding once it's cured!

Today I discovered the Mephisto's Wedding is more of a night time smoke. Lol :rofl:
Wanted to do a comparison with the Mephisto Wedding x CMD which I was smoking yesterday and started this morning with a lightly rolled one. Which went in alright. Then the second, still ok. But then I woke up around 17:00hours and it seemed I lost an entire day. huh :shrug:
