So, I clipped a tester a few days ago, and I vaped some of it a few hours ago.
It was surprisingly strong and pleasant for a bud clipped so early. It tasted faintly lemon zesty, with just a tiny hint of licorice.
I'm looking forward to how it'll be after ripening a bit, and a proper dry and cure.
Especially since I just opened a jar of Bruce Banner from the summer before last, and the strawberry and diesel terms have cured into a scent reminiscent of a Terry's chocolate orange.
If I had to harvest today it would be far from the worst bud I've had, so I'm pretty satisfied.

It's great to see our northern neighbors' flowers still packing on the weight into the second week of October!

Hmm. Weather report isn't getting any better. I'm not sure how much more ripening she can do with temps of 12⁰C(x9÷5+32=53.6f) and below, and without any sunlight.
I have some time to see how the report changes over the next day or two, but I was reading about how el Niño is affecting the weather this fall, and it doesn't sound like it'll get any better.
I can't do anything until she dries out anyway.

Leona- day 150
Unfortunately it doesn't look like it'll be getting much better.
I'm considering chopping today as she's dried out now, but I know that as soon as I do there'll be better weather!

Lol, especially in the Great Lakes area!

Its a tribulation for every grower, when to pull. Especially outdoors.
Old Mother Nature keeps on keeping on while we wait.
Looks great Mel, best of luck with the choice mate.

Happy Thanksgiving, Mel! Leona looks beautiful. I especially like the pink pistils.

Well, I think I'm done. The potassium bicarbonate spray is no longer effective keeping the powdery mildew at bay.
I'm planning on starting to clip her fan leaves this afternoon, and depending how far I get before the rain this afternoon I'll most likely be taking her down Thursday.
Leona- day 151
I'm pretty sure she's as done as she's going to get!
Honestly I'm playing with fire waiting any longer. I have no idea how she's managed to stay free from budrot this long.
Happy belated Thanksgiving to you!
That's the second plant this year that's had them! Both high in limonene too

I hope it goes well and the rain holds off for as long as possible.
I recommend socks when you're out there pulling off the fans...shoes even!

Mostly done clipping fan leaves, but she's still soaked from the rain yesterday, and last night.
The bowl trimmer can handle what's left.
I'm going to try it out for a wet trim this time.
I might do one branch dry though. Just to compare.
5 out of the next 7 days have rain in the forecast and we're heading for single digit daytime highs fast.
Leona- day 151
She'll be in the drying rack soon!
I'll post a vape review as she's heading into jars for the cure!
