I had to train them constantly but i didnt mind tossing my head into the grow tent smelling those girls continuously. Everytime and I mean EVERYTIME we smoked her we were cleaning the house within 30 minutes just buzzing right along happliy. Best weed effects for house work EVER

YES That is the effect Iām hoping to get. That is what broke through the executive dysfunction of ADHD for me and let me get shit done in so many areas, not just house cleaning.

I grew her for 4-1/2 months in veg before flip so she would be more mature so her effects would be stronger. I had heard on Dude grows show from particularly the Dude that this plant responded in kind and effect with being more mature. I followed what he said and I had great effect. Now this what i followed but I honestly dont know if theres anything to back that up.
The other ISS i grew was still good just didnt have the whole package for effects like the 1 innthe picture

Youāve got me even more excited for this!
I was initially thinking of it as āswap ISS for Golden Goatā, because I got one since I couldnāt find seeds for the other. But I can just push Birthday Cake out to a future run and do Blackberry Kush, Island Sweet Skunk, and Golden Goat (all fems) on this next one. That feels like a good combo, and Iāll (hopefully) get both sleep and ADHD meds out of it!

Im glad I could help out with the decision. I stuggle with focus and motivation on the daily so I completely understand where your coming from. I have a high paced confused hamster running in place and cant make menial little decisions that causes frustration for my extremely high functioning wife that gets more tasks done in 1 day then I do in an entire week.

Yeah, my partner and I function very differently when it comes to ability to tackle tasks. When Iām at my best we are very different but complement each other well with what we are able and prefer to handle. I havenāt been at my best for quite some time, but yāknow, hope springs eternal.

Us as well, we are complete polar opposites. Shes excellent at all aspect honeslty as she lacks the scramble brain dysfunction I have and has an excellent system in place to eliminate tasks for her. I am excellent at detail pain in the as work just need to get me going it the tough part. I work in seeing lines and if the slightest thing doesnt line up my wife knows to step aside and Iāll jump in. I understand what your saying completely

Finally weighed my harvest! Probably overdried it pretty significantly, but oh well. ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ I wasnāt ready to deal with it yet.
Total rather crispy weight (including seeds ) is 38.76 grams! Iāll take it!
In other news, my ācongrats on finishing the first growā present to myself arrived! Itās an Old Mate Designs Aroma-3.
Big fan so far! Only tried it once, but it feels amazing in the hand, huge fan of the way it is designed, fully magnetic no threading, notches together really securely. As someone with a little CNC (wood) router and a 3D printer, I also really appreciate the machining marks on the stainless steel, itās very aesthetically pleasing, especially the swirl on the bottom of the middle piece.
It has no lip on the edge of the lid, so Iāll need to get used to loading it a little differently, but I quite like it compared to my Santa Cruz Shredder.
The SCS did what it always does and had little bits stuck in the holes that didnāt want to fall through easily. The Aroma3 had no bits still in the top. I like the quality of the grind for my vaporizer, the weed is quite dry, but I think properly dried bud will result in a fluffy grind. I know the SCSā results on too dry and properly dry weed, so I feel confident that itāll be pretty similar.
Because this was something I was concerned with before ordering, and someone else was able to clear it up for me elsewhere: the Arizer stems fit in the grinder bowl, for loading straight out of the grinder.
Anyway, itās pricey, and I ordered direct from the guy in Australia, because with shipping it was basically the same as the pre-shipping price from another place, but for me I think itās going to be worth it. Iāll update again once I have used it more, but I really like it so far.

Well, shoot, bro, almost 39grams. Holy shit, thatād last me months, yanno it? All i can say is congrats, and i hope the high is fantastic for ya. Now about that grinderā¦yanno one of the earliest memories i have in OG Chat is selling an electric grinder to Lux (was that you, Luxton?) or somebody. Anyhow they got it, but did not like it, which bummed me out for yanno kinda talking him into it. I really dig mine. Itās cheap as hell, but i really like it. Iāve got a grinder that was 60 bux, kinda like yours, manual, but not nearly close to as nice as that Aroma is. Bearings and all, eveen with a bearing puller. 
Gotta love it. Anyhow my electric one was like 37 bux and looks cheap, but so far, so good. Itās called the Mamba:
Anyhow, iām really happy about your grow. This next oneās gonna put out some seriously good smoke. I sure hope you find some of that ISS (what ever ISS stands for). Iām curious as to what youāll think of it. KOKO.

Thanks! I feel like a significant amount of that weight is probably seeds, based on how many came out of those two little buds I ground up, but still! Iām definitely happy with it as a first harvest, especially since I knew it wasnāt guaranteed to make it to this point on a first grow.
I remember that conversation! Iād looked at those at one point, but I place a high value on having a clean grinder, and those looked a lot more annoying to clean to the level that I prefer than other options. Also thereās something satisfying about holding just over a pound of stainless steel comfortably in your hand. And in an emergency I could use it as a self-defense weapon, either a blunt object or the sharp teeth 
I told @luxton about the Aroma-3 after that try with the powered one, and thatās why he mentioned he has it waiting for him already for christmas. 
ISS is Island Sweet Skunk, itās a āmostly sativaā of āunknown lineage.ā I accepted the generous offer from @InTheWoods, so hopefully Iāll have some arriving soon! (meant with no intention of urgency or pressure, just excitement!)
Iād had positive experiences trying weed for pain relief, and was trying various ones suggested for various other medical purposes, but not having particularly notable results. The first time trying that and having it melt away some of the obstacles that ADHD throws in my way was the thing that opened my eyes that there was incredible potential for it to help me. I knew it helped other people with various things, but my body works in strange ways sometimes.
And thank you again, Iām excited about working through my crispy home grown and looking ahead to the next run. Been chipping away at various things I need to do before starting seeds, but Iām getting there.

Yup yup, it was meā¦ I do like it, I just wish I could make a few changes, lol. I do still use it though, usually when Iām going to roll a bunch at once because of the volume

Ahem my friend, check your inbox from September 16th I have been eyeing this thing for over a year and a half at this point, biding my time until I could justify the expense to myself.
And yeah, I had planned to keep growing, because otherwise holy shit this would be one of my most expensive fizzled out hobbies, but yeah! I am excited to refine the process and see what I can find that works for me.
