Hahaha! "...when the fish weren't biting." OMG keltic, I nearly fell over laughing.
Ok, what traditions do I think I'm developing?
* Obviously Mr Am4zin has trained me to have either a 420 shirt or a Pigeons 420 shirt on to cut and hang. I prefer to change into more comfortable shirts, ones without sleeves or high necklines, to wash, trim and process.
* From this harvest on porridge is the breakfast choice. Steel-cut oatmeal, filled with nutritious fruits and seeds fill the gas tank for the long day ahead. Plus, it's loaded with cannabutter.
Licked that sucker clean.
* I have to post pictures of the chop to announce the beginning of the joyful harvest. I thank the plant for all she's done to bring joy into my life and all the anticipated healing and joy that will follow with her harvest, processing, and consumption.
* Pigeons taught me to make music part of the process and BY GOD, GET HIGH FIRST WOMAN!!!
Today I listened. To both directives.
I'll keep doing that. * Pictures of the water dripping off the blossoms and leaves (I love water on leaves
) are a must. *
I can't believe I almost posted that. Lol! My little secret. Lol! Time to trim the fans off.

I did. Right after I harvested I remember testing it and commented that it was very potent.
I haven't had it in my smoking rotation lately. She was a nice grower:

Oh Jim...... a warning shot, please.
Another impeding harvest
CBD CC 2.2.1 was fairly generous for the resources she used.
No sooner did I have the harvest bagged and in the fridge than I found myself being called to the finish tent, loupe in hand. I love the way they sometimes talk to me.
Thin Mint GSC has begun the flush to cloudy trichomes.
So far no amber. Harvest this weekend.

I would agree
My missus loved the GSC from a dispensary in CO, for what it is worth.....
Happy harvest

Lol my harvest tradition seems to be "get it done and over with as fast as possible before anyone sees, hears or smells it". A couple days ago I cut down one and a half plants on my patio. Of course the neighbors decided, right after I had everything all set up was a good time to hang out in their backyard. I continued as quickly and as silently as possible.
After my caterpillar's in the closet fiasco a couple weeks ago I made sure to wash it all with hydrogen peroxide water very throughly. I also found a kind of cheap 2'x2'x2' grow tent and hung a 4" fan and carbon filter in it to be a smell free drying chamber and/or insect habitat. So far no insects have emerged and it hardly smells up my house, so it seems to be great.
Indoors I'm now all down for switching to strictly hempy. The three I currently have are doing fantastic (as is everything inside really) with the RX Green and infinity more convenient the my soil plants. I have seven empty pots and a huge bag of perlite burning a hole in my pocket. I have one soil plant that I'm sure is a male, it's just growing way too fast and stretchy to be female. So some room should be available soon.
Your harvest looks great! Thanks as always for the great inspiration and insight.

I thought I was weird (OK, I am!) to have a method and repetition when I trim. Alas, we are all weird in our own ways, embrace that difference, I know I do. I'll share my ritual behaviors:
Out comes the vinyl albums, usually a double album, no later than 1976 release date.
Double albums were my first "tray", to breakup and deseed bud. Tilit the album slightly, use the edge of a pack of ZigZags to roll the seeds downhill.
I have a harvest T-Shirt that I've had since 1972, a single glittery 7 point weed leaf centered on a black (now greyish) shirt. I wore it to Disney once when I was 17, and they made me turn it inside out before I could enter the park. I love that T-Shirt ... my Dad didn't at all, but I had moved out of the homestead at 16 years old. I am the same weight as when I finished high school, so I can still wear some old clothes from back then that have survived.
That's all to my ritual, vinyl spinning and my ragged old weed -shirt. Not that exciting huh? I love it!
Peace

I don't get into the whole OCD thing, not having that listed as one of my mental issues. When I harvest a cannabis plant, I wear whatever I happened to put on when I got out of "bed" that morning, listen to whatever music happens to be playing (which, most recently, has been something I've heard before, because I've been trying to save money and don't turn on the stereo, instead relying on the brain to serve the purpose by "playing" tunes from memory), et cetera.
Now that I think about it, I can't think of anything that I've ever ritualized. Unless you count jumping into the shower before going on a date with someone new, lol. Or... no, that's all. Seems like if you place importance on some kind of preparatory ritual, you're thereby lessening the importance of the thing. And when it comes to harvesting bud, the thing... is everything.

Dory.....
Now I can cancel the search party plans. Good to have you around. 
Hey sue just wanted to say you seem like such a sweet and badass lady.. the story of your landlord coming up to your apt was pretty funny! Ive only had one harvest so far, the only thing im really ocd about is my trimming.. other then that just make sure to have some music going and take some hits off the bowl every now and again. I smoked my scissor hash right away last grow so that was my 'treat' through out my first harvest.. my second one is coming up next weekend!
Love how you hide all your plants in every nook and cranny, very clever!!

Harvest: CBD Critical Cure 2.2.1 (Day 140, flip + 56)
Wet weight.
Thin branches mean more weight is buds. I usually have thicker branches that support the buds. This girl had to be wired together.
Standard branch size and structure. This plant is absolutely beautiful!
Thinner branches and heavier buds dance in the water better.
Hanging over the sink like this is the perfect height for trimming the fans.
You trim all you can reach on one side......
......then flip it around to get the other side. It's so easy to clip the fans off without digging around or handling the branches very much at all.
Started at 10 AM and laid the Fiskars down at 12:25 PM.
There they are. This was by far the prettiest specimen of the CBD Critical Cure I've harvested.
Leaves simply get dropped into the sink. You can trim the entire plant like this without getting all stickied up or gumming up the Fiskars. I trimmed without needing to clean the trimmers until I was finished.
My only clipper casualty.
Now that we can see them more clearly.
Leaves. I have so many. Any day now I'll get the urge to try a dry sift to see what trichomes I can recover.
All clipped and in the paper bags for a low and slo dry in the fridge.
I don't put very much in each bag.
When I lay it on its side I want a single layer, all spread out to expose the most surface area
Stems and leaves came in at 155 grams. That means she'll dry to approximately 1.9 ounces. I can work with that. I'm planning on learning to get 4 ounces, minimum, out of each plant. That would give me more room to play.
The chemovar is so easy to grow and brings in a consistent volume of buds. It firms the foundation for our cannabinoid therapies,and I can't tell you how happy I am to be so far ahead of demand right now. I'll be able to keep taking a clone at flip and keep it in steady rotation now. This part of the grow appears to be running on all cylinders.
It's been a long day. I think I'll slip into a Callanetics session and work out the kinks one gets from standing in the kitchen for five or more hours processing a bad-ass cannabis plant.
But before I do, there's the matter of a righteous buzz to reward a job well done. I've had this plate of Carnival waiting for me all day long. Time to indulge.
The final shot.

Thankfully, I only have to pull that hiding trick once a year.
Congrats on the upcoming harvest. There are few events that spark more joy. Harvest puts me in the most delightful state of mind. Thank you for the compliment. I guess I could be considered a little bad-ass. Lol! I'm not your typical neighbor, that's for sure.
The best kind of neighbour im sure lol.. yes harvest is a wonderful time!! I see you are very joyful right now! For a good reason.. those are some great looking buds... very nice harvest there.. congrats!!!

Haha! I was expecting that 'final pic' to be a big billowing, swirling cloud of smoke!!
Always lovely to share the harvest Sue - even virtually (although I imagine that actually would be a near to unsurpassable experience). Was that the hempy CBDCC Sue?

Hahaha! There's never as much smoke at my harvests as you might think. I'm lucky if I remember to get dressed.
I roll out of bed and go straight to the task at hand, and my focus is so intense I don't stop for much. This was grown in soil with Doc Bud's HB kit. CBD CC 2.6 is my first hempy.
She's just starting to grow in regular leaves. I have a feeling she's going to be a stunner herself.
Awww..... What a sweet compliment.
