Day 73/53/39:

Chop day for the Marathon OG! Day 73. It was showing about 15-20% amber and was fading fast so I decided to pull the trigger on it. Could barely get it out of the tent, it was ready for a nap. Snipped all the fans and it is now hanging up to dry! Not a lot of smell to it yet but what I am getting is spice and and little OG gas. It colored up a but not as much as I have seen or would have liked. It is covered in frost, any small brush up left me covered in sticky trichomes. Almost felt like sacrilege cutting of some of the fans lol. Should make it a great hash plant with all the trim, and some great smoke. Can't wait to try it!

After removing the Marathon OG I was able to get everyone else situated in better spots. Overall they are all doing well! Still waiting on trichomes for the AvT and CA. A few of the marker leaves Ive checked on the GP haven't gotten any worse over the past day so thays definitely a good sign. I'll wait to clip the rest of the dead foliage till I know it's in the clear. FD/MM/OGB are all doing very well, still on daily waterings . Other are about every 2-3 days now. Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks bro! Very glad you recommend the DTE to me so thanks again man! You've been very helpful this grow. I had some hiccups but it's really expanded my knowledge as a grower and I'm very happy with with end result and thinking it'll end up being a good staple for the tent. I can't wait to try it, it's so chunky. Even ended up looking a lot like the photos online for it. Will definitely do a smoke report on it.

No problem Dank!
Glad it all worked out… and now you have a lot of killer smoke to show for it.

The Marathon OG looks like fire bro! Really frosty nuggs and they also look very dense. Will be interesting to to see your overall yield when everything is done.

Yeah I'm really interested to see the yeild as well, the nugs are golf ball sized and super dense so I have high hopes for it. Looks so amazing

I wonder how those ALDI bags will work for you, i kind of been doing the same method since grow 1, hang upside down for 4-6 days and trim and jar it.

Sometimes i don't have space in a tent to hang dry it so i wonder... if the bag method is any good, i suggest it to people but never tried it LOL

These are the first/only ones I've used and they work great. Pretty heavy duty, on my 3rd or 4th plant with these bags? I've done hanging the whole plant, paper bagging it, and I have one of those expandable net shelves so I've tried a few things.

I used to just hang it whole and that worked out best for me but I started to notice some inconsistencies with certain bud being more humid than others so I now paper bag it for the last day or two just to sweat them and equalize the humidity to get them all within the same range. Seems to work out a lot better for me this way.

Thanks brother! i'll try that out for sure.

Have you tried drying in the brown bag from chop to jar/grovebag?
