Mephisto Genetics Duckster does Mephisto

I found this timely, because today I was in a store that sells sunglasses, and only sunglasses. A young lady walks over to me and asks, "what brings you in today?". I looked at her, and said, I'm interested in buying a refrigerator. She didn't quite know how to respond. Am I getting to be that age?

I was thinking about how a status symbol of today is those cell phones that everyone has clipped onto their belt or purse. I can't afford one. So I'm wearing my garage door opener.

I also made a cover for my hearing aid and now I have what they call "blue teeth", I think.

You know, I spent a fortune on deodorant before I realized that people didn't like me anyway.

I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on
beer cans!

I was thinking about old age and decided that old age is when you still have something on the ball but you are just too tired to bounce it.

I thought about making a fitness movie for folks my age and call it
'Pumping Rust'.

I've gotten that dreaded furniture disease. That's when your chest is
falling into your drawers!

When people see a cat's litter box they always say, 'Oh, have you got a cat?' Just once I want to say, 'No, it's for company!'

Employment application blanks always ask who is to be called in case of an emergency. I think you should write, 'An ambulance.'

I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older. Then it dawned on me. They were cramming for their finals.

As for me, I'm just hoping God grades on the curve.

Birds of a feather flock together . . . .and then crap on your car.

The older you get the tougher it is to lose weight because by then your body and your fat have gotten to be really good friends.

The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.

Did you ever notice: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are XL.

The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's really in trouble..

Did you ever notice: When you put the 2 words 'The' and 'IRS' together it spells 'Theirs...'

Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

Some people try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

Ah! Being young is beautiful - but being old is comfortable.

Lord, Keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth.

Thing 1 got the chop today (75). She was taller than my first toofless alien but she yielded less than half of the first girl (470g wet vs. 224g wet this time).
Before her pre-chop trim.

After her trim.

Sugar was mostly cloudy and amber, very little clear.

Thing 2 started her water only diet today. She will probably go next weekend. Will try to post some pics of her after I finish the rest of my yardwork.

Ok so now an update on thing 2. She got a bit over 30" to 77cm. My tallest Mephisto girl. She still lots of white pistols and some clear trics, but also a good bit of amber. It looked like the buds were still growing but they were starting to fox tail. Decided to go ahead and chop her yesterday since I had to go on a road trip this week. Poor thing was a bit over loaded. As soon as I removed the pipe cleaner ties that were holding her branches up, most drooped really bad and a couple of the broke. Ended with a wet weight of 354g so she wasn't my heaviest Mephisto girl. My first toofless alien still holds that honor.

Nice job as always mate. You dropping another couple of beans?

Many thank for all of the rep slaps @Nicker32, @mephisto, and @sanguine my head is spinning lads!

You know it Dude, but going to have to wait 2-3 weeks as work is crazy busy ATM. Was thinking about trying a couple of White Widow XXL or possibly just 1 Moby Dick.

So a bit of an update on thing 2. I chopped her last sunday and double bagged her. Returned from my road trip on Friday and found the rh meters in the bags had dropped to 49-50%. Did a final trim and weight. Popped the buds in 3 jars and after 8 hours the rh was only up to about 55%, so thinking they might be a tad over-dried. Added my last 3 boveda packs to the jars and 5 hours later the rh is about 59% in the jars. I hope I didn't feck em up too bad. (Note to self - buy more boveda packs dumb ass). After the final trim the dry weight was 71g. About what I was expecting as my wet/dry ratio is about 5/1.

I also took the opportunity to take a small sample of thing 1 who had only been in the jars for 1 week. She is super green and very sticky. A pleasant pine smell and flavor with a blend of undertones that I can't sort out. Very nice indeed. A buzz that rivals my current Mephisto favorite - Sour Crack. So at this point I would have to say 5 stars for the Toofless Alien! Another stellar effort Mitch and the rest of the Mephisto gang!

Oh forgot to mention that I have a new found respect for the bud that I have grown. I normally smoke small bowls of 1-2 hits, just enough for a small buzz. I do this throughout the day, so I am usually in a constant state of mild buzz. Monday was a travel day so no chance on a buzz. That night I took a walk from the hotel and managed to get 3-4 good hits off a joint of sour crack. Had planned to get dinner after but decide that I was too blazed to be driving. Ended feasting on vending crap at the hotel lolol.

Glad your liking it mate, ive done loads of experiments with drying. I really like my cured buds to smell dank and my last harvest on the advice of pop22 i dried them to 59% then jarred them- no burping at all, left them for 2 or 3 weeks then started smoking it. Turned out to be the best cure ive managed yet- buds were really dank. So dont worry about humidity being a little low mate

That is good to hear. And nd burping - even better because sometimes I forget to put the lids back on for hours lol
