Bruce Banner # 2

I am seeing a few ambers. The rest don't look milky enough to me but I didn't expect them to be ready yet.

Wedding Cake

These trichs look to my eyes as if they are turning milky.

Thank you for keeping me company on my journey. This journal is almost at an end and then I will be taking a break for a while. I am so pleased, relieved and proud to have managed my winter window grow. I honestly wouldn't have accomplished this if it wasn't for the support and advice I have got from fellow growers

Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!! Stunning trichys!

 

[Carmen Ray]

Super frosty. Almost there. If you are worried about timing, I'll gladly keep them for you now haha. Looking forward to your smoke report and some pics of those nugs dried. Hells yeah. So nothing going on for summer? Even a spot while on a hike to drop a couple beans and come back next year lol?

Lol! Thanks for the offer chommie. I have too much going on, comings and goings during summer for a hands on thing, and I am not geared up for being in the wilderness on my own, so I won't go guerilla this season

Nice Carmen!! Nearly there. Tell me how many hours of direct sun do you get through your window?

Thank you Skottelgoed. I get very little direct sun and it is in the afternoon for max a couple of hours as it passes by.

Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!! Stunning trichys!

Thank you so much AutoNaut

Yay! I was thinking of you this morning as I was tidying my kitchen and baking cup cakes for some reason

lmao!!!


Thanks Skottelgoed! The weather has been stunning the last three days. I went to Bikini Beach for an ice-cream two days ago Make that two evenings ago, just before lights out.

Hi Keith, I have indeed done that but it is not typical and has been disruptive. As long as the plants get their dark period, the temps don't dip too low, and humidity isn't insane they have responded very well. Temps have been as low as 6 degrees C but that is at night. Have you seen how I am giving them their darkness? I have draped bin bags around the frame of the leds and I put them up on the adjacent window too. If I need to go to the living room after lights out I use a torch. I have draped bin bags in the doorway to the living room too, to keep the light out. It's a schlepp, but if one had a dedicated room it would work well in our climate, or a Carbox like this Big ups for winter grows! Where abouts in the world are you located? What's your climate like?

Thank you growmes I wouldn't have done it if it weren't for your encouragement!

My plant is in a large pot to big to move from the outdoors I will try and send pics.

You're nearly done Carmen and I am mighty impressed that you were able to pull this off under less than ideal conditions! And you've produced some primo plants!

It's a beautiful plant Keith. I love to see plants living the outdoor life. Did you say this is your first grow or am I mistaken?

Thank you so much GDB, it feels good to hear that

Thank you for sharing this Shed! I'm so relieved that it is making international news. I don't think our government have any shame, but at least it is in the news. It's an excellent photo essay because you can see how badly this affects everybody's lives. We are all bracing as our economy is buckling.

That glitter

Carm dark or light you’re fucking awesome!

Yes it is my first grow and thank you

You should totally document the remainder of your grow. I love the shape of your plant. You look a most accomplished gardener. Did you say what strain it is you have there.

Carm dark or light you’re fucking awesome!

Thanks Tra!

I feel a bit sad that my winter grow is coming to an end. Tomorrow the Wedding Cake will come down and I have started to remove some of her fans in preparation. She has milky trichomes with a smattering of ambers. The Bruce Banner #2 is not far behind. I am hoping I have a week to hang the first harvest before I have to hang a second, just because of space issues but I can make a plan if I have to. I am super chuffed that my Bruce Banner #2 is so successful. The reviews all say it is a difficult strain to grow.

[Trala]

I agree with Growings!

You have been superb to watch and get to know, Carm. Xo

 

[Carcass]

This has been an interesting grow, start to finish...
I can tell you now- I wasn't really sure you could make it work, but you did, and with excellent results...very well done, Carmen!
I look forward to seeing what you do next year
And have a nice harvest tomorrow!

 

[BooWho2]

Im so sorry to have fallen so far behind. What a fabulous job you’ve done with the last two grows! I enjoyed every minute of it and my gosh you captured such a great winter grow. Congrats to you! I look forward to when you return here to grow with us again!

 

[Lerugged]

Bravo gromes. That looks superb. You did it and you beat eskom. Enjoy your harvesting today. Whoop

 

[InTheShed]

Beautiful plants and lovely finish to the Wedding Cake! They both look so healthy and green.



Amazing what you can accomplish with black plastic garbage bags.

 

[StoneOtter]

Way to go Carmen! You'll be enjoying that for some time! Wish we had smell-o-vision!
