Looking good I don't know how your going to trim her lol. You'll have to spread her open to get to everything.
How tall is she again? I know you said it before but I can't find where you posted that.

Have been thinking the same as she is just one ball of buds, gonna try trim as much as i can to get a few pics of what is there before i break her up into nugs and finish them off, she was 11.5cm (4.5") at last check but will measure her up one last time before the chop.
 
Oh yeh a tasty ball of buds. Loving these Mephisto girls. On the short side, quick developers, and they seem to love being spread out. Thinking that with a bit smaller pots that I could fit 4 Mephisto girls in the cab. I owe you some rep but I got to spread some round first. Are waiting until your return to chop the DBC? Stay safe in your travels - head on a swivel eh

Yeah she sure is original looking lol. Sure with some small/med strains and some yellow or red bottom (3L and 6L not sure in gallons) airpots you will squeeze 4 in without a problem and still be easier to control than the unruly girls from your first grow. DBC is only on her second day with 2L plain water and will have another tomorrow followed by a big 4L flush the morning i leave, hopefully when i get back next week she will be just about ready as Orange Alien is done drying.
 
I was thinking the red bottom. I'm using the yellow bottom now - supposed to be 7.5l (3gal). The red is 5l (2gal). I think 3l (1gal) is an orange bottom. Have a good long week-end.

Yeah thats it the 6L (red) and 3L (orange) is what i meant, the 6L is what i run the first DBC in and the 3L is what @hairyman pulled the bigger of his 2 Tyrone Special from when experimenting with coco. Have added the dimensions of the pots below incase it is of any help in choosing what fits you best.

1L/0.27 Gallon Black Base Height = 14.5cm(5.7") Diameter = 10cm(3.9")
3L/0.77 Gallon Orange Base Height = 23.5cm(9.2") Diameter = 15cm(5.9")
6L/1.50 Gallon Red Base Height = 28cm(11") Diameter = 15cm(9.8")
10L/2.60 Gallon Yellow Base Height = 32cm(12.6") Diameter = 23cm(9")
 
Orange Alien is chopped and hanging and will update here a bit later with the last few pics, after worrying that it was a little early to take her down i am now happy i did as a couple of nugs in the middle of that ball had started to rot, will see how it goes as she dries up but have removed and trashed the rotten nugs and everything else seems to be clean, so fingers crossed i got it in time and will look at it as a positive that i did not wait till i got back as i reckon i could have been a big ball of rot by then instead of a couple of nugs.
 
Day 61 Orange Alien chop chop

Fingers are sticky and i smell like the skunk that mated with a grapefruit but she is chopped, trimmed and hanging, ideally she would have gone another 4-5 days but as mentioned earlier i got lucky taking her down early as rot had just started in that mass of bud and reckon that if i waited would have spread straight through her. Not the biggest by a long way but what's there is super sticky and covered in trichs, she topped out at 15.5cm (6.1") with a wet weight of 45g which i am happy with as did not expect to pass 5g dry after cutting her head off in my attempted FIM.

Look at that your going to end up with about a half ounce with a 4.5 inch plant! Even with the little bit of rot. Great job man.

Am more than happy with how she turned out for her size and will have to wait and see but looks like some real tasty buds, thanks for the kind words and best of luck with your grow you know i will be there following to the end.
