On the last post we took a closer look at Space Pants, a plant near the end.
And now...
Find out the answer to the question in the title as we harvest the first plant in the group this season.
SS Georgie ended up being a scary-looking plant from all the stress I think.
Started life in a glass of water and took many steps to end up in a small pot in the yard. It was a rough ride.
I brought her in, as she was the first one of the whole bunch to flower and the first to start sparkling.
But for such a gnarly-looking plant, she was actually quite lovely.
Then I started removing whole branches, which were all very flimsy and delicate.
She's small, so not alot of buds here, but all the buds look like they have some potential.
You all should smell these.
I'm going to leave this one, I want to see how she holds up after the pruning.
If she can pull through the stress, I will put her in a giant pot and give her a chance to grow up more. I am really dying to see what a larger version of this one looks, smells and tastes like with a better season, better constant care and less bad stress.
This is what I have from Georgie. I will trim these down closer to nug-sized since there are so few...
I got rid of the stems and crappier leaves and non-sugar leaves but left the buds longish.
Yes, what you are looking at is a food dehydrator, a jerky one to be exact.
But no worries. I didn't turn it on. I am just using it as a drying rack that allows darkness on the inside.
I have a fan running next to this to provide plenty of air flow within the racks.
I've never actually used this dehydrator for anything. There was a plan to use it for food and it just got put away. Then as I was prepping an area to hang dry branches I saw it and pulled it from the box. It seems to be drying that small amount okay. We'll see how it goes. I did look online to see if it's ever been done with a running dehydrator. The consensus of the list of experiences that I read about regarding this is that drying your weed in this thing isn't advised, So no jerky weed for us, guys! lol
That's all for now!
See the first part of this growing season and the weird journey these plants have taken from seed till now.
PART ONE
THE LAST ONE BEFORE THIS
I make art and I grow things. I'll leave it up to you as to which of the two I am better at.
