Just wanted to share a pic of this really cool pollen press I picked up on ebay and the 5.5g of hash i pressed. I wonder if the guy posts here?

How much trim (or bud) did it take for you to get than much hash?

I love that stuff!!

Started with 26 grams of super dried out bud from my second plant I harvested in my first grow. I decided to put a fan in the mix and by the time I realized they were over dried it was too late.

I actually mashed the dried out stuff in the jar first then dumped it out on the screen. Mashing it basically increased surface area and de-stemmed the bud. So I sifted through for a bit and picked out seeds and stems then used my hand to press down and sift the flake in a circular motion. Like wax-on wax-off :) I imagine its not to purest stuff out there but it is mighty tasty and quite effective.

The press is great because the big door knob like handles make pressing a lot easier then those other types. And the price is great for the quality of it. Got to love ebay.

I didn't have much trim since most of my leaves fell off in flowering I stopped feeding too early. And I trimmed some big fan leaves in the beginning. This grow I won't be doing that and hopefully will have some great trim to work with. If my one HK is fem I may just hash the whole plant.

The screen was a pre-made Lawson 125 silk screen 18in x 21in for $16. the screen is still in pristine shape quality work imo.

Ok day 37 for most of the plants...

The 2 plants with huge fan leaves in the front row in the #2 and #4 spot are the NLBB. The main stems are almost a half inch thick and the grow tips are still very very short compared to my other plants. Kind of strange. the plant in the back row to the left in the #5 spot is the HK. The rest are WW. Also found out something neat about my NLBB's Right when the soil dries out the fan leaves roll over. Looks very strange. Almost like it twists at the petiole. I was like what the hell is wrong now? lol. I left it went to work came back and it was all wilted because it was dry. I watered and within a few hours it perked right up. I love it when I can actually figure out what the hell the thing is trying to say to me. We sort of bonded today :) Its all about the communication.

Still running Age Old instead of Grow Big at full strength every other watering and the plants seem to love it. All def. due to ph troubles are by the way side and everyone looks pretty healthy.

Now for tons of pics...





#2 NLBB




#3 WW




#4 NLBB




#8 WW




#6 #7 - big stinky (isn't so big anymore in comparison) and part of #8 WW




#6 up close topped it a little while back now maybe 4 potential colas their. Every now has been topped. WW#3 and WW#7 were topped a few weeks ago to slow down their vertical growth.



#5 HK from the top.



#1 WW



#2 NLBB close up at the top. Check out how monstrous those petiole are!




#4 NLBB. Big ole fat fan leaves

They are looking NICE!

[McBudz]

Thanks guy and gal. I feel like I've come a very long way since July when I started this whole grow thing. I've destroyed many plants in the process. This place is a wealth of knowledge. Everyone here is amazingly knowledgeable and supportive. Feels like a family here.


I was thinking of vegging another week maybe 2 at most just to get those new tops a little more developed. I really can't have them getting taller than 5 feet or so. My grow room is only 6'7'' What do you all think?

God forbid i get a miss burley like harry red. They are going to go into 5 gallon buckets as soon as they show signs of being fem so thats an another 5 or 6 inches just from the transplant. The HK's and WW I'm not to concerned with but I've heard the NLBB can get tall.

I can't wait... :) It will be nice to have a variety to smoke from. Not that I'm complaining about my current stash :) Especially that hash.

I thought NL was Indica Dom?

a Sativa NL would be godbud for me...

[BubbaKush]

i have a nutz sativa nl that amps me... and i have a trainwreck x nl hybrid thats bad ass too not as ampy

[McBudz]

According to nirvana the place i got the seeds NL is mostly indica and Big Bud is sativa/indica mix but does not give percentages. They advertise NLBB as:

Northern Lights x Big Bud was developed with the grower and smoker in mind. Big Bud has outragouse yield but tends to be a bit weak for the heavy smoker. Crossing Big Bud with a very potent Northern lights has made a more potent bud with losing only a small percent of the yield. The smoke from Northern Lights x Big Bud is rich and deep and the taste is lightly skunky.

Plant type: Best suitable for indoor growing.
Plant height: Medium- Indica/Sativa mix
Stoned or high?: Stoney yet high- Allround Buzz
THC level: Medium 8-15%
Flowering Weeks: 8/10
Yield (Sea of Green on one m2) : 450-550
Harvest Month: 9/10
Grow difficulty: Moderate
