Uncover the sides where the tarp hangs down so it will only block the sun from 11 to 1!

Morning fellow 420ers wish all my fellow Canadian’s a happy thanksgiving, hope everyone had a good weekend with the family.

First two of the smaller west coasts have been chopped on Saturday. Was busy with thanksgiving so they werent stripped down as much as id like.

We had some nasty weather over the weekend with 50km gusts of wind and tons of rain, plants looked like they held up nice all things considered. The big west coast was dry for the most with the cover over it.

Will be monitoring frequently to make sure theres no bud rot and if everything goes well will keep it out for another few days.

I plan to have the peanutbutter-haze out as long as possible since buds are still pretty small but are starting to stack up.

Heres some final pics of the smaller west coasts before harvest

Congratulations on the two harvests Newb! You should have a few weeks worth of bud in those two.

A belated happy Thanksgiving and with the PBH and the weather. That structure is working nicely!

Haha hopefully a little more than 2 weeks worth hope to get a pound worth off the two small ones.

Happy belated thanksgiving shed. Hopefully dont get to much rain this week.

Yea structure looked like its getting the job done. Shouldnt be problem with lighting if still perked up after the weekend we had.

Thinking about submitting the big west coast for POTM

Thanks 420hive appreciate it

Yup good old trimming prison. Luckily i have a auto trimmer so i only hand trim all the colas and leave the mid and bottom of the branches in the auto trimmer for rough trims

Morning fellow 420ers beautiful sunny morning for the first time in the past week.

Update on the big west coast, i found a lower branch with some bud rot in the cola that was exposed to the rain that wasnt covered completely by the cover.

I decided to harvest it last night. Upon checking the trichomes they are finished and not worth risking any more rot for a couple extra days.

Really pleased with how the plant turned out considering all the hurdles this season.

Heres couple last photos before it was chopped. Aswell as post harvest

Hello everyone sorry for taking such a hiatus. Once the season was over began to get very busy and didnt really get on the fourms. I just would like to say thank you to everyone that helped along the way the 2023 season.

I feel like owe everyone to be able to see the final product so will have to take a few photos of each of the plants.
