From the original/first grow, the purple kush turned out to be some of the tastiest bud I’ve had in a long time. Pic of the buds:

Today’s plant netted 96 grams wet - white widow. This plant and the previous one were barely 16" tall. Also, got approximately 43 grams (wet) of sugar leaves.

Music enters my brain looking at these. Gorgeous stuff! 
Thank you!! Getting ready to chop the next one. White widow that is my first attempt as some LST. Was able to get LST style growth (see last two pics) and it definitely made a difference! Compared to previous grows but comparable strains, this yielded at least 1/3 more. Will know once everything dries and cures, but I’m using a 60% loss in weight value, which should net me a half pound from 4 white widow clones (still have one more to cut down tomorrow).
Very happy with how it turned out - very dense!

Safety Pins on fabric pots work well too

I would really like to know why my skills just blank out at simplicity. I wonder if this is a form of dyslexia? Things to ponder. Thank you for sharing.
Just tie the other end to the hole in the safety pin and leave enough for leverage?

And last of 4 white widow plants for this week topped out at 166 grams wet buds and 60 grams wet shake. Three more plants due end of month!
So, as a final total, wet weight:
Shake - 196 grams
Buds - 576 grams
Buds drying nicely…
And, just to give perspective, the first two plants were in 1 gallon fabric pots and the last two were in 2 gallon pots. I was aware that the size of the pot has a definite effect, but not this large. I’m doing some very coarse experiments trying to determine the effect size of pot has on yield. So far - and this includes a few prior grows - I’m seeing about a 50% increase when going to a 2 gallon pot. I have a set of 1/2/3 gallon pots I just put to flower with 4 different strains. The physical differences in the size of the plants is astounding. I’ll post pics later this weekend, as well as some notes on what I’m seeing/finding with these grows.
Update on weights
After drying, ready for curing, the weights came out to:
- Shake/trim - 61 grams
- Top buds - 79 grams
- Popcorn buds - 44 grams
Quite happy with the results! Tried some of the shake and a “test bud” - already has a nice kick and you can tell what the taste will be. MMM MMM GOOD!!!
Still have the mother plant of the white widow clones, a gelato and a purple kush that will be ready end of the month.

That’s it for this grow session, topic and pics. I’m really loving the HGCC seeds as they’re producing really well. Currently have my next two grows started. One is 4 weeks into flower with one each: GSC, PKWR, and White Widow. Next grow is 3 weeks into veg and is 2 each white widow, PKWR, purple haze and one mochalope. Also have a bag seed from a dispensary that are super rare (someone else’s words - not mine LOL) - SherbHead from KLUTCH Cannabis.
Anyhow, as these next grows progress, I’ll start a new topic and post some pics.
Thank you to everyone for your kind words, support and all those LIKES!!!
