New Grower My first grow, an autoflower story - Presenting Pakistan Ryder.

Hey hey hey!
I am so excited to be able to announce that I have officially "ditched the dealer" and got high from my own supply!
/Drumroll please...
My first nugs!
Last Friday I decided to cut a sample branch to see how things looked after reading a number of people advise testing your buds a few times prior to harvest to see where they are in terms of potency/effect, so I cut a bud from the outer edge, trimmed and put it in a brown bag to start drying.
I managed to hold off doing anything else until Monday evening when I got a little impatient, and moved the 3 little nugs pictured above into a smaller brown envelope, and left it over a warm radiator for a few hours to dry some more. I kept turning them about every 30 minutes and once they felt dry enough to grind I popped some into my vape and I unashamedly got nice and high!
She tasted really nice I'd say, and the high was really clean and mellow, lasting about 2 hours before I fancied any more, no major couchlock or anything so I think she might still be very early and can develop some more but I was very happily stoned for a good few hours! Very very happy with the results so far!

Following on from my test I figured I can harvest in stages, as I said, I really enjoyed the quality of the smoke now, so decided to cut and trim 2 more branches today, and see how we go from there 
Here is how she looked when I opened the tent today, with the nice crystally cola which I'll be cutting last, but looking really great:
And here's one of the buds I cut, before and after trimming:
And finally the products, one brown bag of buds, starting a nice long drying process, and my girl looking a bit smaller than when she woke up:
Peace out to all you lovely people!

Well done ! I remember smoking my first ever home grown years ago, nothing like it !
how's she smoking now ?
Very nice if I do say so myself! A very nice gentle stone I'd say... A nice relaxing high, and lasts a good few hours. My one gripe is that she's not much of a session bud, because after a while I feel pretty level and smoking more doesn't seem to do much. That could be because I'm still on the very first test bud I cut, or just a characteristic of a pure Indica, but for sure, not ideal for wake and bake all day sessions xD
I know I've been slack posting the finale to this journal, but I promise I'll get to it soon!

- . . . I'm on rations of Forum Stomper till next harvest.
interesting grow report - I'm particularly interested in the first 4 /5 weeks under lights here to try and boost yield from my outdoor grows (I just can't finish plants indoors without risking the wrath of the wife - even with carbon filters). I have (I think) 3 Pakistan Ryder beans to grow on next year so will be interesting to compare results.
Job well done sir
Job well done sir
How did she react too harvesting in stages rather than all at the same time?
