On Aug 30, 2016 I gathered up some soil near my basement door and planted 2 seeds that I obtained in some flowers I purchased at a local dispensary.
On Nov 8 I had one seedling.
On Nov 5 I cut the clones and put her in the bloom room.
On Nov 17 I looked very closely and oh boy that sure looks female!
And here's a shot of the babies.
Around Nov. 25 or so the flowers really started forming up nice.
Took a shot with the bloom light off to show the crystal formation.
Don't know why that third shot rotates sideways when I upload it, but oh well.
That was today Dec. 11, Day 36 in bloom.
From what I have read, GG #4 is best harvested at 56 to 62 days, so not much longer.
I am using Ionic Grow and Ionic Bloom for soil for my nutrients.
The soil is Happy Frog from Foxfarm.
The water is rainwater collected by me.
I have found the soil to be quite high in pH so I am using a lot of pH down.
Right now I have a 400 watt HPS in the bloom room.
On 01/03/17 I cut her down and hung her up. After about 4 days I clipped all the fan leaves and let her continue hanging. My thought being that will allow for increased air flow. On 01/10/17 I took her down and clipped all the buds. I did not trim for selling. I only have the one plant at this time so it is all for personal use. There were a LOT of crystals on those little leaves close to the buds so I left those little leaves on the buds.
There were some itty bitty buds on the bottom of the plant so I put them separate along with some of the leaves I did trim off the bigger buds. I put all the nice buds away in a sealed container to continue curing.
I put some of the bottoms and clippings in a bowl and lit it up.
No snap, crackle and pop. So I did a good job of flushing. Yay Me!!!
The flavor is smooth and mild, wasn't expecting it to be that good since it was mostly small leafy stuff.
I smoked about half the bowl and sat back. In about 2 minutes I realized I have a beautiful sativa head buzz knocking my socks off.
I am very impressed. This is bottoms that are not fully cured and I'm getting an awesome buzz and enjoyable flavor.
I am very giggity!!!!! I'll let ya'll know how the tops come out in about 2 weeks.
That's great! Top job Z.
All those popcorn nuggets make great cannabutter or other edibles if you want to. It's a good way of using them up, along with that leafy trim.
