Another day, Another harvest

[Astro84]

It's getting rather close to the creame of the crop as i'm saving the best for last, yesterday and today i spent some time chopping down my 3rd last bush, i say yesterday and today becuase I had limited time to cut and trim all the stems and I was fairly lucky today that I didn't get sprung, finishing up everything JUST in time before someone came home and I mean litterally I just wiped the bench and the door opened

 

so this plant was the second of the tallest bushes, i had an early panic harvest I mentioned in another thread last month which means I sacrificed a lot of bud...but i'm not totally at a loss because I got some Heavy dense bud out of this girl, very sticky and very aromatic but not overpowering. while i chopped and trimmed I gathered all the leaf and trim and blended it into a fine pulp for my cooking later on and the smell of the fresh chopped leaf had a very soft cinnamon aroma and the smell of fruit-mince pie...weird but very appealing

 

unfortunately I forgot to take some final pics of the plant...while it was still a plant but it looked pretty lame except this one fat bud hanging off the side I had to end up supporting with string because of the rain constantly weighing it down.

 

What amazed me was how heavy the buds are when you actually cut a branch off! i'm sure that every one of you would say "wow" to yourself when you cut it off and feel the weight, i know that the bud was heavy for the stem but i didn't realise HOW heavy it was untill i held it

 

Anyway Enough Talk, it's time for some pics!!

 

This is the first half I did yesterday with the token redheads box for size comparison

 

I didn't have enough time to take pics of the second chop but I did take a pic of the big bud that was procariously hanging to the side

 

and this is the whole lot drying at the moment (note me holding the big bud in my hand from pic 2 )

 

I will take another pic or two when they're dried and ready to be put into jars!

 

I have the goliath to chop down in the coming weeks i'll make sure I post some pre-harvest pics, that's all for now folks

all of the pics are all the same plant, and it's bagseed so i can't tell what it is...all i know is if i had left it to mature past the harvest i'm sure it would have all gone purple/red, all the fan leaves on the buds developed a nice red stem

 

its a very nice high, full budy high starting from the legs felling very relieved (like when you just sit down after a busy day) and eventually works it's way up while my head stayed on straight for the most part, i'm going to try some more when it's got a bit more moisture back in it...i smoked a pipe full of the crumbly bits that fell off when i was breaking the buds up, not very harsh and quite strong too i got a few seeds in the jars, i'll have to put them into some packets
