Yep - gotta do it with the ones I’m vegging now. Too early to start any of this except the topping, which I already did. Began some “horizontal training” using plant training wire, but will begin the full process toward the end of next week. I always tend to rush the plants to flower instead of letting them bush out BEFORE setting them to flower. Thanks again guys!

@mdbuds is right that plant on the left 1st I topped it once it recovered from that I fimmed it then I tied it down and then I fimmed it one more time and the whole time I also prune leaves as I go. It all comes together with experience as you go through your grows I am on my 4th indoor grow cycle so I’m getting a little better at all things growing Cannabis.

Well all, it’s that time!!! Harvest time is approaching!!! Monday these babies come down!!! All trichs are 75%+ cloudy, so perfect no-couch-lock timing! Took down the smallest/lowest branch of each plant. I always do a wet trim - they’re drying now. Here’s some pics:

Will show pics of the grow on Monday before/during/after harvest.

Just harvested the two plants and did a wet trim on them. They are hanging in a drying area so no clue on weight yet. Here are some pics:

Thank you!!! Next grow is already started and in bloom. 4 white widow clones, a white widow mother plant sent to flower, and a PKWR and gelato from seed. All have just shown their “pre-pubes” in terms of the first “hairs” sprouting.
I was so impressed by the quality of the seeds that I just ordered more!

Thanks @dmtscravey! Although it’s just for me, I take pride in what I do. Also, it’s fun “playing with” what you created. Almost 9 hours of trimming time on the two plants, but it was worth it. Took all the trimmings (sugar leaves) and dried them. Then rolled joints out of about 20% of it. 60 1/2 gram smokes and about an ounce+ still left.

I’m the biggest derp. Why has it never occurred to me to roll with the leaves as you described? I guess for the same reason I can’t make gravy well, huh? Thanks for the mention!

I’m the same way even though it’s just for myself in my wife you still have to take pride and have fun and what you’re doing. I don’t quite spiral cut mine like some people but I’m going to have to try it once just to see if I can.

@kmac03 I’ve always done that. It just seemed like such a “waste” when rolling from bud, so I generally used the shake. It’s served me well! The only thing I make from the leaves that aren’t covered completely in trichs is freezer hash. I try using what I can from the plant, by there are so many others that make serious stuff in terms of tinctures and oils. Nothing goes to waste!

I was processing it into oil myself (why is it called oil when it’s a tincture, by the way?). It’s not my thing. I’d like to figure out concentrated pastes (whole plant; avocado like texture) using all of it, but I’m not there yet.

Hey @dmtscravey I’m with you. Didn’t add my wife in that last statement but she also partakes. I’ve seen the spiral cut but you need the plant to grow a certain way for that. I did it with the one I posted earlier only because that’s how the buds grew on the stem. I try not to alter the actual shape and character, just removing the leaves to the level of the flower. They have a naturally beautiful shape so getting things looking good only takes a bit of time and patience. If you still have “stock” left from a previous grow, there’s no need to hurry trimming the current grow. I like to have an overlap so I get lots of strains I can choose from depending on what I feel like that day. I’m up to 6 so far…
