Almost dry, I know I rushed this a little bit but we were out of smoke and I didn't want to have to buy anymore. No sir, I want to start smoking my own home grown stuff! I started out harvesting just the main stem and cola. Then the next evening chopping the rest. By that point I basically nipped them all, trimmed the big stuff, put them directly into brown paper bags (split up into 3) for the first day. Second day of drying, I took them all out, took my time trimming and inspecting them. Then let them air out for a day inside the grow tent. From there, into jars just to measure their RH a bit (was way too high) so back into paper bags where the hygrometer read around 70%. I took them out this morning and let them lay out on the brown paper in the tent. Now they are back into one brown paper bag (they have shrunk a bit) with an RH of 64%. Next harvest will try to plan out better so I can try the hang dry method and give it more time. Next grow will only be two plants and I'll probably run two of the same Mephisto's.
My wife and I have sampled probably about a gram or two of the harvest. Even with that bud curing quicker than the rest it's spectacular. My wife loves this strain and I have to say it's a really nice strooong body stone, relaxed and happy but can remain functional if needed just don't get couch locked for too long. Perfect for evenings when you want to wind down and eventually drift off into a nice sleep. The taste actually isn't bad with the firefly vape though I'd say I prefer the bud to actually be a tad on the wet side than overly forced dry, can speak more to the taste once the rest of the harvest that is drying a bit more properly is ready. I'd say it's toasted barely, sort of grainy. I am beyond pleased and so is my wife!
Also my wife asked me if she could try growing a plant! Of course I was totally psyched as she didn't show any interest in growing at all before. She was excited to see my grow and watch the progress but out of the blue she suddenly said she wants to try to care for one herself and be able to help out more! So next grow, 2 Mephisto's, 2 Noobs, double the fun!

Only 3 remain, they are doing pretty well, not the prettiest bunch in the world but let's be honest, who can compete with the queen!? In all seriousness, thank each and everyone of you for your support, seemingly dedicated at times just to help out a new grower.
