Today i noticed really brown fluffy stuff of the buds that were at the top of my plant, they smelled horrible so i decided to harvest all the buds.
I dried one out 2 weeks ago and it smoked lovely so i decided today was the day.
here's the pic of it about 2 weeks ago:
147352

Here's what i harvested:
147353
147354
3 layers in this box:
147355

I still have to get the buds off these yet:
147356

So far i weighed the buds i've collected and it weighs 32oz.
Can someone give me a rough guess on what i will weigh when dry?
I have no clue how much lighter it will be.

Thanks Guys:greet:

Nice plants mate, but would be even better with bigger pots as already mentioned.
Hope the brown furry stuff wasn't mould tho ! Check it very carefully and regularly

Hey mate, what seed bank are the seeds from? It looks awesome and your yield is amazing. And the best thing is, that the plant doesn't even look like weed. I am definitely going to grow a few of those!!! Also what size are those pots?

He must have been stoned out of his gourd. Those are most clearly cannabis plants. I'm pretty curious too, what aspects don't make it look like weed?

I get what he's sayin I think, 1st pic looks a bit like Dr.Grinspoon with the small round buds

Yeah, you have a point.

How is the aroma now? It was featured in a magazine not too long ago. They had a purple/green pheno pictured, and said it smelled very delicious and strong.

The genetics of this plant are outstanding.

hey all. just found this thread again.
dried i got 8.5 Oz.
I left some buds on the plant to see how they turned after 2 more weeks.
The bud smoked fantastic and was the tastiest i've ever had,
Only thing was that when i packed out a joint, it ruined it in a way,
I got a much better taste by using a smaller amount mixed with tobacco, (but that's just me)
The stuff i left on the plant for 2 weeks was even better, once the leaves turned purple, i cut and dried and cured. they were seriously strong and done the job nicely :)

At the moment i'm doing a super budget stealth 45w grow in my room so check it out :)
