So, we hit f63 today and it was time to take down the Big Detroit Energy x Roadkill Skunk. Thanks for the beans @DougDawson !
The scissor hash suggests a solid indica dominant, skunk type bud with a very slight head buzz. The flavor is more along the lines of a biscotti or wedding cake. Almost sweet with some vanilla. There are a few other scents, but they are muddled, so perhaps something else will come out of the dry. Wet trim weight was 271, so it should be 50 to 55g dried. That is pretty standard weight for my tent, but i have never yielded so well on a 63 day cut.
I think I gave up on the dry trim after doing the Wedding Glue Auto a week or so ago. 20 grams took almost 2 hours and it looks like crap. my wet trim is way better looking and ~50g worth of bud took 1.5 hours. If I have the time at harvest, it’s a wet trim I guess.

Top: ICC5, Widow Bomb Monster
Bottom: Grass fire Diesel, Red Hot cookies (it’s super stretchy, at f18), Golden Triangle (this one is turning out really nice. huge shift in the last week or so)
I am struggling with this next tent. I am getting burn from just water…it doesn’t make sense to me.
Top: Grateful Red, Choc Lit Zulu , Godfather OG x mean mug,
Bottom: Orange Mooncake (just got defoliated, f24), Kuaui Electric x Pineapple Ghost.
This next tent is at f41, only the Acapulco gold is giving me issues. it just keeps getting more tip burn. ppfd is lower than normal for me in flower and I dropped the feed to under 500ppm. does it just need only water and no nutes? Th Acapulco is also maturing a bit faster than i expected…and the Panama is way behind.

Ok some close ups. I might have to reupload if any are blurry:
Golden Triangle, smells like wedding cake. vanilla.
Golden Triangle again
Widow Bomb Monster
Ice Cream Cake #5. This plant smells great. Super vanilla, doughy, baked goods
Grassfire OG x Dominion Diesel
Kauai Electric x Pineapple Ghost, this one just won’t feed correctly. it does seem to be maturing now. very slow. low frost. super greasy and terpy. the baseball bat size colas are interesting. could be a good one to mix with something potent and small.
The chocolope. i thought this one was going down today. i might give it a few more days. it keep throwing white hairs, but not too many. trichs are white, no amber yet.
Godfather OG x Mean Mug. odd looking buds, wish it was chunkier.
Grateful Red = Colombian Red x Thai x Purple Niagara (Weaver’s Bud?). This has been my worst plant, but the bud looks so different than other stuff i have grown. I am really hoping for a good sativa buzz. the buds are starting to mature There are a lot of them. maybe 4 or 5 more weeks.
Acapulco Gold BC1…i might have to get another pic. It just hates nutes…idk. Maybe it will mature fast so doesn’t have to live too long with a crappy appetite. It does seem to have some frost which was not really expected. I am thinking the thai from the backcross is showing up here.
Panama . This one is super slow. looks like big slow buds. I am not sure that is normal. I think most people complain the Panama out of ACE is too fast. we’re going into week 7 with no red hairs at all.
Widow Bomb Monster. Not as good a yielded as the other one, but this one is much frostier. Also no red hairs.
Lemon Alien F2, looking really nice. smaller buds, but decently frosty. a few days younger than the rest of the tent. It doesn’t realy look that much like the mom, but I might have to wait to until the end to end to know. this one seems much lighter in color and was less bushy. The fade will tell if get there.
Lemon Alien x Melonsicle. looking good, but not has frosty as the Lemon Alien. this will give a larger yield though. long, thick colas.
Grandpa Jack = Grandpa’s Stash (Ethos) x Jack Herrer (New420guy). this is looking fantastic. way better than my other autos. i showed it to my old grow buddy and he said ‘wow, it looks like real weed’. he hates to find out his bag is auto bud. we’ve had bad experiences. smell is sweet, also a bit of baked goods or vanilla.
not sure why, but so many of the plants have this vanilla smell. i’ve never had a grow with vanilla in anything so far. I was not expecting that. nothing is really fruity that i have noticed except the Kuaui cross. I did finally get a cutting of the red hot cookies to root. it took 26 days in the aero cloner. i took a few cuts, so i might have extra. When i shut down this time, i was thinking of making a seed run in solo cups…reversing the red hot cookies onto a few of these and maybe pop a few beans to take some pollen.
