Indoor LSD Auto (Barney’s)

[VitaMan]

Maybe 4 days to go. The buds are going to be small, I think.

I can blame it on P overdose and heat coinciding with neglect when Mom was in hospital. It fried alot of leafs just before the fattening phase of bloom.

Even so, a few shiny things caught my eye. There's going to be kief in the trim bin.

I vaped and smoked some little quick dried buds. Smooth without a cure. I'm gonna be happy with the final product.

 

[VitaMan]

Took some scrawny branches to trim. About 11g manicured. This (and my other jars of course) will get me through the cure period.

These little ones are a lot of work compared to larger branches.

Retrospective:

It really makes me want to address my fear of pruning. I would prefer fewer thick buds for sure, so I better get over it.

Defoliation was way too late.

We had an early season heat wave, when I took Mom to emergency followed by a 10 day hospital stay, I neglected the plant and didn't notice the P overdose.

Most leafs were fried. This corresponded with the bulking phase of bloom resulting in smaller flowers than expected.

Don't know the yield yet. Nonetheless the quality of the smoke and vapor is excellent.

I will post the weight after trim day, and do a proper smoke report after a few weeks curing.

Doesn't look like it turned out too bad at all man. I'm interested in that smoke report for sure. I like reading strain descriptions but I am always skeptical.

You can be sure that breeders or seedbanks are describing their favorite plant, grown in perfect conditions.

Start lollipopping, just keeping the lowers from developing can revert a lot of energy to those tops. Easy to try just stay on top of it like anything! A good rule of thumb depending how strong your lights are is to take between 25-50% of the bottom foliage off, I usually take about a third and haven't had more than a couple grams of large on each plant.

 

[VitaMan]

You are right. Ive done heavy defoliation successfuly before. I waited too long.

From this and previous grows, I see that I must get comfortable pruning the little branches.

Trim day

She gave me 156g.

95.5g top buds
46g firm sm-med
14.5g loose buds and goofs

Plus nice big pile of dry sift with more to come.

The rH inside the grove bags is only 45% so the bags are in the tent with the humidifier on. Alternatively I could seal them in a foodsaver bag with a large boveda. Both methods have worked in the past.

This should get the humidity inside the groves to the zone in a day or 2. I suppose the final weights will be a bit more.

When a batch of bud gets too dry on me, i put a fresh bud in the jar and it usuallyhas enough moisture to bring up the rh of the whole jar

It got up to 58% 5 days ago. That is when I'll start the cure countdown.

But this weed is very good without a cure. In fact I've already placed well manicured buds in my everyday jars.
