:jump:Well done, your Pakistan Ryder looks way more lush than my spindly first attempt - but mine was also plagued by gnats at the start and growth seemed heavily slowed after the gnat killer treatment; mind you, I learned the lesson and used nematodes instead the second time around...

Mine was grown under a 125w dual spec cfl in simple MiracleGro soil (never again!) and a 18hr/6hr schedule. Yield was weak with just under a quarter dry, a smooth toke with kush-alike effects, a great muscle relaxing effect, great for sleeping like a log :lol:
 
well done both of you I'm sure that will be a quality smoke andy :thumbs:

rose nice looking plant colours i think a slightly larger pot could help your yields as well the min is normally a gallon and 2 is better again(hope you dont mind me saying):2cents:
 
Very cool, Rose. I also started to get some of the reddish coloring in the main cola before chopping, but nothing as nice as yours. :wiz:
 
It's been a couple of weeks so time for a quick follow up. I followed Buddha's drying and curing method so things started with drying the buds for about 5 days. I then moved them into jars with hygrometers and slowly lowered the humidity. After about a week I had them down to about 64%, so I left things sealed for 7 days. This morning I burped the jars for an hour and moved the bud into smaller jars with a 65% Boveda pack. I had planned to do some final grooming and take some pics, but I had an interruption and had to finish quickly. I'll have some more bud shots when I do the smoke report. Here are a few shots from before I sealed them up last week:

The final dry weight of the PR was 9g, and the DF was 14g (the main cola was 8g :D). That doesn't include approximately 2g of test buds and scraps that I didn't put in the curing jars. Not quite the ounce that I was hoping for, but pretty close. I would have paid around $400+ for this amount of high quality weed, so basically I've made back all the money I invested in this grow, as well as covering some of the costs of my new setup. :dance2:

I'm going to give them another week or two to really lock things in before doing my smoke reports. I'll link to them in this thread once they're done.

Thanks again to everyone who followed along with advice, comments, and encouragement. :bow:
