My wife and I got home from Mexico last night and now it is time to get ready for harvesting my Quad Grape plants.
The two oldest of the plants look to be about ready to go into the dark for 48 hours and I will probably put them in the dark tomorrow. These buds aren't as big as I was hoping they would be by harvest time, but the trichomes are looking like they are at their optimum.
Their trichomes are majority milky with some amber ones here and there. I really can't wait to harvest these and start curing them.
This is a balanced hybrid strain and I am looking forward to seeing how it compares to the more Indica dominant strains that I have been growing.
One thing is for sure with this strain is that it is super frosty. I probably wont trim too much of the sugar leaves back mainly because I plan on doing some infusions with oils and I use a Volcano vaporizer so I don't need to worry about some of the harshness from the leaves. There is just too many trichomes on these plants to waste when trimming.
I have no idea how much I am going to harvest once I get all of the plants trimmed and dried, but I have a full 4X4 tent of these plants, so I am hoping to get a decent amount so that I can experiment with this strain. With it being a more 50/50 balance, this should be a good strain for midday use.
Anyways, thanks for checking out my pictures of some of my plants. I am going to be pretty busy over the next two weeks with trimming all these buds up, but growing my own cannabis is way more fun that just going to a dispensary and buying it.
