Lighting TAGs perpetual grow.

WOOHOO Thanksgiving. Turkey in the smoker, and fresh buds in the kitchen. One of my sons is home for Thanksgiving and He was a little excited about harvest and he took apart the Middle AKR and one of the Girl Scouts. Did a pretty good job for his first trim and cut, got to love the enthusiasm. But he parted them out while I was getting the turkey and smoker ready so I do not have pictures of either.
I can report that as initial weights the Aghan Kush Rider weighed in at 158grams wet and the Girl Scout Cookies came in at 115grams wet. So I am pleased with the weights, assuming 70% loss in drying, That means at least an ounce out of this Girl Scout Cookies and closer to 2oz out of the AKR. I also have 2 more AKR's in the tent that should yield an additional 3+oz and 1 more GSC that should match or exceed the weight of the first one.

I will also be cutting the second ET down tomorrow, this will be the second small one, leaving me just the lg pheno which will be left to go to day 75. This one will be cut at day 65 as part of my research in my other thread. I have been vaping the first one since it came out of the paper bags, and it won't last long enough to cure. Man I like these Dragons!!!!!

Well, as usual, things just never work as planned. ET #2 did not get cut yesterday and I did not get any pics yesterday. Ended up spending the day at the hospital for the wifes chemo treatment. Too many folks called in yesterday and there just were not enough nurses to go around. I guess shopping was more important to them.

So I will try to get pics today, chop an ET, and I have to pot all the babies. By the time I got to the closet and tent last nite, all of the next batch were above ground. So, 3 ET's, 2 cheeseberry, 2 blueberry bliss and 1 Narco purps. I still need to drop a few more ET's and then we are done for the next run.

I have 1 Afghan in paper bag drying as well as 1 Girl Scout cookies. leaving 2 ET's , 2 AKR's, 1 GSC and 1 El Alquimista to cut yet, all at day 66 right now. God I'm gonna have a merry christmas.

Remember the whole, "things just never work as planned" comment? Well never mind the why's or wherefore's, but it's monday and today is cut and plant day and update time. I do have pics of the second ET and the large AKR before/after chop and will post those in a separate post.

I jarred up the 1st AKR and GSC this morning, 40gms from the AKR and 30gms from the GSC after 4 days in paper bags. The ET dragon which I just chopped yielded 73gms wet and is resting in paper, the AKR gave up 287gms wet. That is a good weight, and should result in 2+ozs of really sticky bud after dry and final trim.

I really like this plant so far, I'm vaping a quick dried bud from the 1st AKR which I cut thanksgiving morning. After 4 days in paper a quick 15sec nuke in the microwave and easy to grind. Kind of a creeper, took at least 5min to start setting in and it slowly built to max at about 30min. Lasts a couple hours, but should get better with some cure time.

I still have an ET dragon, an El Alquimista, a Girl Scout Cookies and another Afghan Kush Rider to harvest. And today I need to pot 2 Blueberry Bliss, 2 Cheeseberry and a Narco Purps. Good jump on the new grow.

So, again, shit happens and plans change. Remember the plan, 3xET Dragon, 2xBlueberry Bliss, 2xAuto Cheeseberry and 1xNarco Purps. Well, they looked so good in the tent under the LEDs, I figured they needed more company. So I dropped 2xTerrestrial Cheese from Terrestrial Bean Co that just happened to fall in my lap. Little iffy on dropping just 2 since they are regular autos, lets hope for a male/female mix or 2 fems, I'll take em any way they come up though.

Tag, you been busy man. Growing like a mad man!!! Take one of these and a nap.. You're going to need your rest with that next run coming

 

[tag60435]

Thank you for the Rep and just keep an eye out for what the future holds. And in the vein of keeping busy, DAY 72 of this current grow and the final AKR was just chopped. She attained a whopping 14 inches in height but managed to achieve 155 grams of wet weight. Incredibly dense buds on this critter, I've kept a fan directly on her and the final GSC just to ensure no mold issues although, with the dropping temps, the mold issue is less likely.
Now there is only 1 GSC, 1 ET and 1 El Alquimista left to harvest. The GSC will come down next, as soon as the final paper bag of the large AKR is placed into jars. 3 paper bags of AKR were placed into jars this morning and reloaded with fresh AKR from todays chop. The final bag of the second cut contains the top Cola and largest buds so therefore needs an extra day before jar.
I now have 8 jars of various strains in the closet and a 1/4lb of high all waiting for a RSO run.

PIC TIME,

And lets not forget that there is a whole new grow resting on 1 side of the tent. I will spread them out when the space clears as the finals get harvested and I have 2 Terrestrial Cheese that have popped but not grown above the cube yet, that will bring the count to ten again. And though this is not the correct place, I also have 5 photo fems that have been veging for a bit and I will need to flower them as well soon.

Its always something.
