My hopes of 16oz harvest is gone, I think.
So much weight loss on these. Im back to my original guess prior to weighing the buds…
13oz Hopefully
Took all trays out to perform spot mold check on several random buds…
Looking good!
Bud in sealed 
bowl shows high percentage of 
moisture
Took the buds out to check General condition and check for mold
Lots and lots of water weight lost, but still a bit on the moist side. Buds feel light as fuck now…
Water weighs 8oz per Cup. Ive pulled at least 2.0 - 2.5 cups of Canna-water from the drip tray during this Dry Cycle. So that accounts for roughly 16-20oz of water loss.
I guess that I should just be happy if it turns out mold free and tasty

Both Bulb Temp and Dew Point maintaining…
What I see is Cannatrol reads relative humidity at 65%, yet both of my accurate for RH hygrometers are reading 68% relative humidity.
I have yet to get a straight answer from Dave at Cannatrol regarding whether that number is just calculated based on the reading of the dew point or if it is actual reading inside the unit. As far as I know, my units sensor may be 3 low. 3% can be a bit of a big deal…
I wonder if that’s why my LSD grow which was ran at default settings was a bit too moist after it’s initial Cannatrol run

Last nights project 
Totally forgot about the trimmings left in the garage 
Definitely dried fully, lol. Plenty of kief at roughly 7grams.
The used up trim made it to the vacuum sealer for use in edibles or tinctures at a later time. She will join Blue Dream and Skywaker OG in the freezer

So, I’m convinced I did a stupid, high thing…
In my rush to get out the door and see ZZ Top concert moments after harvest, I think I didnt tare out one scale for the 5 Gallon Bucket used to hold all my wet weed.
I Tared out the bowl on the scale, but musta fucked up with the bucket on top. Was using two scales and one turned off during all this, and of course I was high and in a major hurry…
So… Bucket weighs 1.7lbs. Confirmed that
That leaves wet weight at approximately 2.6 lbs or 1179 Grams…
1179 grams multiplied by 25% is 294.7 grams… Thats what Im thinking should be new ballpark figure.
Suspicions confirmed with photos taken the other night.
After removing some for hand-outs, etc… Ive landed at the 25% number.
Trying to remember everything I did. I think Ive got it right. Numbers all jiving.
Not what I was hoping for, but its good stuff and only getting better now.
With the stunted cola pulled early, and stuff smoked early, etc. Im calling it 10.5 ounces at 295-300 grams

This maybe (no - I know it is) rookie question - what is Kief and are the trimmings made up of the leaves? And then - what do you use the trimmings for? Sorry for the noob questions, but if you don’t ask - lol

Kief is the resin glands and whatnot that falls off while trimming and handling. Looks like he uses a Trim Bin and uses that screen setup to sort of dry sift his trim. Then he seems to vac seal that trim up and save it to make some edibles or tinctures later on. The trimmings would be mostly made up of sugar leaves that are removed/trimmed during the trimming process.

Thanks @PatHealy - great info

Sorry @Nick
Just now to a place where I can answer, but @PatHealy pretty much summed it up.
Yep, we used a Trim Bin and trim bin clone. Total trim minus stems moved to one Trim Bin then left to sit out in garage for 3 or 4 days. Rubbed all tirim into the screen and after a minute or two, left with much Kief.
Kief is in jar and will get used as topper or rolled with some weed into the occasional joint
All trim is then sucked dry and in freezer for later use in edibles or tinctures.
I have once made cannabutter and it turned out awesome! Used it for several dishes including brookies. Hoping to make some in a week or two for Thanksgiving, as well.
Haven’t done anything with my trimmings as of yet. Only made edibles from some old weed I had (2 oz).
Too many things going on, and were hosting this year. Really want to make a batch

Hi @supersecretjim, haven’t been round much for the last few days so just catching up - Starky (possibly) is so cute and looks as if Stanlee has made a new BBF and you have another guard for the tents - lol
Stay well and keep sharing -
