There's a few, higher on the plants. I will get photos tonight, but we are at the end. Doing one more plain water feed with mammoth p and then cutting when completely dried through. So another few days and they will be down

Also found dreaded fungus gnats in the soil, so I don't know if this is linked. I haven't been able to buy fly tapes over here as I can't find them anywhere near where I live without going to a grow shop where I can't justify spending the amount they want!! Although may have to suck it up if it's going to cause too much stress on the plants

A rather unorganised photoshoot but a bunch of photos of the girls trying to show a bit of everything in there. You can see the tips look a bit beaten up but generally to my eyes fairly healthy. Lower buds did not get enough light, but top buds looks to be a bit tasty.

Also a quick question which somebody might be able to help with... Chopping the plants... When soil is dry or give a good watering first? (I.e. watered last night/chop tonight) I have had problems with my other grows where the buds dry out too quickly so if I chop when it's had a good water Vs dry soil, will it help to take longer to dry out? Or not much noticeable difference? And are there any other factors that may decide for me? Thanks in advance

Yes, it will have them well hydrated taking longer to dry.

Thanks @Dudeski , I know it seems obvious but just wanted to make sure

So the plants had the chop yesterday after a slight watering. Cleaned out the tent and rearranged it so I can dry in the tent. Aiming for at least a week. Temps this morning were as low as 15c through the night so may stick to only extraction running and leave a window slightly open. Although running intake on timer through hottest part of the day. Will see later when I'm home what the temps are like and adjust as needed

Few test buds taken off and left to dry a bit more over night, should be good for a weeks drying I think looking at them today. Friday or Sunday will be trim and jars for the rest. This is a mix of both bubblegum plants. They are dense and sticky, not as dense as I could wish for but I'm happy enough! Top buds will be great smoke I'm sure, bottoms will be used for edibles/oil.

I also chopped off alot of the smaller stuff off of smaller branches and turned it into olive oil yesterday. Broke up all plant matter, put in the oven on 105c and in the oven for 50 minutes as the bud was still moist. Then mixed it with olive oil in a pan with lid on and back in the oven for an hour and a half. I think after sampling it last night it could be stronger, but I can always add more when I trim off the rest of the plants. I used 14g dry decarbed weed for 350ml olive oil, but this was a mix of popcorn and sugar leaf, so I think if it was 14g pure bud it would be perfect.

Thanks mate! From what I've sampled so far the bubblegum should be pretty juicy! Leaves that nice twang in the back of your tongue,but after a proper cure I can't wait!!! Unfortunately not all of it will last that long as I've ran out of everything else! Hence the oil making...
