After I made the second cuts I realized I wasn’t going to get the circular crown shape I had in mind, other than that it’s all going as expected I think.
I’m going to chop off about two feet from each of them, even out the canopy a little bit, and then brace for the stretch at the end of June. Also my cover crop looks awesome, it gives the whole greenhouse a real Secret Garden vibe. I pulled a lawn chair in here, it’s my new favorite smoke spot.
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.
Never would have thought it’d make such a huge difference. The “smoking” experience is different and actually a lot more pleasant. The high was also a little different: it still hit hard, but it took a little to get there. There was an initial learning curve of using this thing (Dynavap B), but after that hurdle, it was...
It takes some practice for sure. I’ve personally landed on a single jet zippo torch and 3 burns per bowl, starting with a quick burn near the tip for that initial flavor hit then working my way down to the base of the bowl with longer burns to get those clouds.
My plants are a little leggy still but the days are getting longer so they’ll reveg soon. I still haven’t planted my produce crops lmfao my wife is starting to complain about my priorities.
What I’m doing is referred to as a mainline grow, it’s a type of plant training designed to get you a uniform set of 8 colas (the main flower stalk) instead of a single cola. It can increase the final yield and it looks pretty cool: www.growweedeasy.com/mainlining-nugbuckets

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:...
