Or compost it yourself.

That's exactly what I do, good point :)

Naw, that's just her bones. The time to take a clone is when the plant is still in is vegetative phase, this one was a fully flowered old lady.

Hey, it’s been a while! Finally chopped my manifold girl today, this is the last known photo of her alive.

I decided to finish this one in the greenhouse and of course I ended up with a bad whitefly problem. I was able to knock them out with a couple rounds of spinosad and then a week later she was ready to move on.

I decided to do a bud wash (procedure here) to get rid of the dead bugs and whatnot, she’s hanging up to dry now.

The other 2 plants are already dried, I started curing them today. 71g in the jars so far and I’m about 20-25% done. Those gals had the fly problem too so they got the same treatment and wash.

I’m interested to see how the wash affects the final cured buds, anybody here ever try that?

Are we not doing “phrasing” anymore?

This was the final big pruning for my mainline grow, from here I'll just let the 8 tops grow upwards a bit and then flip to flower.

I have no idea, these were random seeds collected from various strains from dispensaries over a few years. Can’t complain too much about free!

Two of my greenhouse plants decided to start waving their junk around, they’re now enjoying new life as compost. Here’s the other one:

That leaves 4 in the greenhouse and 1 in the tent inside 🤞

The idea is to get a slow controlled cure and not a quick dry.

I’m in an arid climate and I generally cut individual branches, let those dry, then harvest the buds, but some of my friends just hang the entire plant up to dry. If you’re in a humid climate then you might look at cutting it down to individual buds.

Lots of good info at https://www.growweedeasy.com/drying-curing and elsewhere :)

I started these from seed indoors one month ago as of today. The strain is Bye-ya x Cake Fighter, a freebie from Great Lakes Genetics gifted to me by my neighbor. I popped 6 of those and 6 rando bag seeds, ended up with 5 of these and 2 of the randos.

Moved them into the greenhouse last weekend and they are as happy as can be ❤️

Not pictured are the other Bye-ya x Cake Fighter seedling and the randos, I'm keeping 1 rando in the tent to play with mainlining, the other 2 are in the greenhouse with the others. In the end I plan to have only 2 girls in the greenhouse, any remaining females are going to fend for it al fresco for the entire growing season 🤞

RIP Scorchy. Something broke inside and now it won’t spark. I’m going to attempt to repair it but I suspect I’ll be replacing it.

Anyone have a recommendation for a nice twin-jet torch? I use it mostly with a Dynavap and would like something big enough to not refill every day but not too too big. Bonus points for a low-effort reliable trigger, a warranty would be nice too.

Edit: fixed it, still interested in recommendations :)

When I first heard her on 'The Lion and the Cobra' in '87 her voice hit me like a truck, and it left a mark that never went away. She was 100% an artist, never a mere entertainer. Such a loss 💔

Most papers are bad enough as is, but sure let's sprinkle some heavy metal flakes on them.

Homeowner's insurance, hands down.

I used to bitch every time I made a payment and then one day my house burned to the ground. The insurance payout for the house itself was twice what I paid for the house, and then they paid more to cover the contents of the house.

Yeah, I don't complain about paying that bill anymore :)
