πΈ Grow Log Update #6 - Harvest Day πΈ
So it's finally that time . . . harvesting! To be fair, I actually harvested a little while ago, but I only updated the main grow log because I didn't have a ton to say at that time. Now I have time to yap haha. Click here to go to the main log I'll also attach the video I took to this post, as well as the main log. I officially harvested on April 9th. That would've been the start of day 69 of flower, but I chopped everything right before my lights normally turn on, so let's call it 68 days of flowering (if you're able to, that's my favorite time to harvest - right before sun-up / lights on). Everything is in the dry tent now, and I talk a little bit about my setup in the video if you're interested. I also have a whole section on drying & curing in the classroom. Here's a link to the Drying Section. I've been stealing nugs off my plants since day 2 of drying, which I definitely don't recommend doing, but I can't help myself haha. Obviously the taste isn't there yet, it's just too wet still, but I've been really impressed with the effects & the fact that it doesn't taste as terrible as it prob should right now. Those are very good signs for the future! βββββββββββββββββββββ I plan on doing a whole breakdown for each strain after the drying / curing, but in the meantime, I still try to take note of the different effects of each plant. I have a pretty decent spread of effects between all 4 plants, and I'm happy to say that I think each one has been filling different roles for me (which is always a plus, that's a big part of why I like variety when growing). Here's a rough breakdown of the effects of each one so far. Lavender: This was the first one I tried because I didn't really have a lot of expectations. I was very pleasantly surprised . . . This plant hits hard, and pretty quick. The onset is super heady, almost like a traditional "sativa" effect, and is right there on the edge of being a little too much for me, but stops right before getting to the point of anxiousness or racing thoughts (which is great). Lots of feel good effects.
