The Quest For A Kilo

[Mono]

Thanks all.

I made a start on the harvest this evening, but it's looking like it's going to take all weekend haha.

Some pics of her before I started hacking away, notice the nice yellowing on the leaves, pushed as much excess nutrients out as possible

I only managed a couple of hours trimming today before other chores got in the way. Seems like it's going to take a while, suppose that's a good thing though lol

Looking good Mono, good luck with the kilo

Mono....what can I say that already hasn't?!? Your quest for a kilo is amazing! The training, overall health and mass of your plant is jaw dropping! Keep up the good work!

I hope you have enough that it takes two weekends to trim it all!!!

Thanks Guys! Managed to get some more trimming done today, but i spent more time messing around taking down the light and watering the plants in veg Going on a mission tomorrow to get her harvested so I can get the tent cleaned and taken down before I rearrange the room and we start all over again

After a little more messing around than trimming, I'm almost half way there now.

Holy shit snacks Mono, that's an awful lot of buds to be less than half. I think you may have a key there!

I can see the 420 sticker again, that means your making progress. Looking good Mono

Fantastic array of buds there Mono. I notice that some are pointed and some aren't, do you backbuild some buds or do you have snippets that fall into the 'best dry that now and try it seeing as it fell off' category?

 

[Pennywise]

Fantastic job Mono!

Man, that's exactly what I needed to read this morning, one hour in and it felt like I was making no progress at all haha

Cheers matey! I didn't backbuild any this time around, no idea why either, it's something I usually do and have seen good results from it.

Fantastic job Mono!

Finally, the trimming is over I ended up having to enlist the help of Mrs Mono so it didn't run over to tomorrow too. Time for a well earned beer then I'll get some pics up

 

[Mono]

Not a lot to say other than it was a heck of a lot more work than I had expected it to be. But she is finally trimmed, washed and hanging to dry

Unfortunately lost two of the main colas to mould. Oversight on my part, I should have hit her with the defoliation week earlier.

Anyway, harvest pics .

Smaller buds.

And the main buds .

Gained a fair bit of scissor hash from the trimming, varying qualities and a little sugar leaf mixed in there lol

And the smaller buds that were not worth trimming. I have given them a quick tidy up of larger leaves, I'll let them dry and use them to make some quick wash ISO hash.

Wow....awesome harvest Mono! Some really great buds in that tent!

Cheers bud. The proof will be in the pudding when I weigh them out before jarring.

Very pleased with how this plant turned out, especially considering the reduced veg time .

Super excited to see what the final weight is. I told a buddy of mine about your grow and he was amazed that you are trying for a kilo. I told him your last weight and he was amazed. Cant wait for the final weight

How often do you defoliate during the flower period, usually?

How often do you defoliate during the flower period, usually?

Usually constantly to be honest, any area that looked over crowded would get thinned out as and when it was needed. Any leaves shading buds would be removed.

This time around I was a little lazy and hit her once at roughly 3 weeks into 12/12 and again at 8 weeks. Should really have been at weeks 6 and 7
