The mill is a Jet, noisy but works. I watch Jimmy too. Very creative. The stuff he does on a band saw, I’d cut my fingers off if I tried that. Haha

I watch those guys too, learned most of what I do about machining from YouTube videos. Same with growing, until they purged most of the growers off the site. Haven’t done a crop in a long time, all my gear is stored in my shop. I have a PM lathe, very nice stuff. Easy to spend a lot of money on...

Very cool. I did 4 years in the Navy, 72-75, was a corpsman. Spent the whole time in California.

I do metal fabrication and machining as a hobby. This is a tool to punch a hole in the ground for a mole trap. The end was machined free hand and then tig welded to a piece of tubing. The other end was plugged with another machined piece. I lost the plastic one that came with the mole trap so...

Where?

Got the harvest jarred up today, looks like 9oz dried for the 2 plants. The buds are a little "airy" but I'll do better next time. I have 2 Gorilla Glue clones ready to put in bigger pots and into the grow room. I also have 2 clones from this harvest but not sure if I'll grow them out as this...

Working through the drying, still not ready to jar yet. I think I check them about every 2-3 hours. LOL It's interesting to see how they change as they begin to dry. I think they have shrunk about 25% already (4 days hanging) and are starting to firm up. This strain doesn't seem to have a lot...

Thanks a lot. This is the third attempt at growing, the first two I got PM late in the flowering and had to dump the crops. Having made it to harvest has put me in unknown territory. I am 3 days into drying, I am using the grow room with one small fan moving the air and the crop hanging up. I...

Thanks AM

Using the USB microscope it's much clearer that most of the trics are cloudy with the scattering of amber. The focal length is so short that you have to "scan" the head up and down to focus on the different tric heads. There are a few clear but on more than 10% I think. One plant down and one...

How much do buds shrink during the drying/curing process? I'm assuming they must shrink down as the moisture is removed but I have no idea how much.

I checked this morning on a different bud. Decided to cut her down.

Day 59 trics pictures. I am starting to see some amber I think. What do you guys think?

Those leaves look like they have the claw. I believe that's from too much nitrogen but maybe someone else will chime in.

I can't see any pics either
