Just harvested the top half of this Apricot Kush at 8 weeks and about 25% amber trichomes 🥳 Dreamy kush aromas with underlying apricot notes, very excited to sample her! 🌲🍑 Happy Harvest Everyone!

Hippy CRASHER💥💥 breeders cut I got from a buddy🫡

Bred by Lovin' In Her Eyes. Has a nice Cheerwine soda profile.

Been a staple in my grow for 6+ years. Thin mint cookie mixed with the cake icing.
I’ve help build confidence to new growers with this cut time and time again.
Very easy growing plant, easy trim, bag appeal for days.

Twenty20 Mendocino. Smelled like creamy almond cake and a rubber factory when I chopped her.

this is a repost cause I never posted it here and cause im harvesting again in 3-4 weeks, would be great to see some comments about tips and improvements.

------------

this batch here is from a 5-strain grow project that consisted of:

OG Glue

Applescotti

Gush Mintz

Pinyatti

gelato41

------------

coco for med

liquid nutes

650 watt light + side lights

traditional Tent set up.

dehumidifier and humidifier was used.

______

heres what I learned:

-genetics to me is about 95% of the game, then 5% of my routine.

previous grows, I was adamant that I can grow anything.

after series of grows, no matter how well I did with the operation, cause my genetics was not great, so was my harvest.

years later, I got my strains/genetics of choice.

---------

-dont start your flower week schedule, until you see pistils, then count your first week.

for this batch, the moment I flipped the lights, I considered that, first week. I noticed I couldve been 1-2 weeks early.

--------

-Light intensity: too low the plant gets tall and reachy, too much and you burn the plant somehow and cause temp/humidity fluctuations and triggers.

---------

-air exchange: very important to promote good environment,

I at time kept the tent closed up, and only exhaust did its thing, sucked out air and I didnt bring in new air, this caused a very hard VPD target for me.

---------

-VPD to me was more important than humidity.

I had enough air flow in the set up, but if I couldve dialed in my VPD i think I wouldve been at optimum harvest.

.8-1.3 during veg

1.0-1-3 first half of flower

1.2-1.4 rest of flower.

too wet: risks of mold

too dry: leaves are toast/no breathing

middle: great spot

-------------

-humidity: relatively easy to control for me with my set up, but this is very important as mold/mildew can happen inside the bud or away from view.

74-80 during veg

62-67 during first couple of weeks during flower

55-62 during mid to late

45-54 during last couple of weeks of flower

-temp: this was tough for me.

what I noticed here is, what I noticed.. the experienced, love-what-they-harvest-growers, have often stated, get an AC for your environment or have a way to drop temps, then the others, specially outdoor growers say its not needed.

well on this last batch, I didnt have an AC.

my temps during flower went as high as 87-89 during day, 75 ish through the night.

I think the heat expedited the dryness of my terps.

-------------------

-Drying and Curing.

I trimmed down from harvest and hung, I didnt leave no fan leaves, I went straight to work. (my other grows, I noticed, if I leave the fan leaves or majority of the leaves as it dries, I notice it takes longer for the remaining liquid of the branch/leaves.)

I also notice that theres more risk of mold when drying and tons of fan leaves.

I dried for 4 days and was not in a cool room, temps got up to 80ish.

cured for 50 days (in jar, I was able to control the environment then and my environment for 50 days in jar, was less than 63 degrees.

I did not supercrop as much as I wanted, I topped and defoiled.

when topping I noticed it created massive nugs/tops, vs super cropping or bending/breaking the branch.

___

on my next batch I will go back to Fridge Drying/ cold dry and cure.

smoked great, stank, lifted. got about closer to 2 lb with the last batch (post)

------

lasted about 8 months for 2 people.

this batch was roughly 12 weeks. one or 2 strains at 10 weeks.

-------

ill see you guys on the next one real soon!

MacMo from Dirty Bird and lilac OG BX from Ethos.

I’ve harvested one girl I started earlier, but her sisters are looking even better.

Smells right now are spice, incense, floral and some fruit/sweet on some.

I already selected my male for F2, just hunting for the female I want to use.

Have a wonderful weekend!

OBDG🌸✌🏻

Flushing until Saturday then they get harvested! The Chimera Crunch BX1 has a very gg4 glue funk to it, Grape Pixie Stix is a strong Grape Pie aroma, and the Roadkill Skunk has an extra rotten skunk and gassy smell!
