West Coast Vaper

I apologize to admin in advance. But Fcuk, this has been a looong veg period. Hoping on having the chill garden ready but you might have to bring your own beach brollie. Slowly but surely this nursery will be catering for the growers stuck out here. Or just a place to relax. So sorry admin. I'm not really trying to plug my business but am inviting everyone to flowering day.[emoji4] Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

Starting to take shape man! Photos don't do it justice. Working on the tea/chill garden. Farm Stall/Venue landlord and property owners open to 420 clientele and functions. Whoop. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

https://www.instagram.com/p/Cvpp7xAsq_J/?igshid=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng== Most people know how difficult it is to get a start in the cannabis industry. FCUK I've tried for 3 years with limited budget and success. Like all my grows, when something goes wrong, I always go back to basics first. Started a retail nursery attached to a farm stall/coffee shop/restaurant. I'm local and most people know I'm a passionate grower of herbs especially the Mother Herb. And to steal someone else's saying I have a growing 'Pensioners Therapy' clientele growing out here in the bush. So I'll grow this gig one seed at a time and supply the local bush folk with, well, shit we don't get out here. So watch this space. Until I can get branded packaged seeds, in the pipe line, I am passing forward seeds gifted to me by some very special breeders that have always been supportive and helpful. Yes. 420 friendly.

Wet trim for me. Purely because of high humidity in my area during harvest time. Wet trim while plant is still in the pot and growing. Its a process. Start removing fan leaves, start trimming the bigger sugar leaves. Trim 3 or 4 plants then chop. Hang for about 5 days. Cut off buds and In brown paper bags or boxes all shook up once a day for about 7-10 days. Into curing jar. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

Last 200g processed. Final weights following soon. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

Halfway through trim jail. Happy with dried and into cure jar weights. Full update coming soon. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

I'm already in kak for taking up half the freezer space. Luckily I'll be starting the Hash making tomorrow or Saturday. Due to remote living we need the freezer space for important stuff like food. WTF? This is the first time I'm using terp loc grove bags and they will be re - used but mostly I'm using my collection of mason jars. I'm going to try using one of those black tote bins for now and hopefully that will work till I get to town in a couple of weeks. Yep. Can't buy fucking jam jars out here and 300 bucks petrol to the nearest place and back that do stock it. In the meantime I have put a 3g for 1 jar offer on the Bush Telegraph bartering group. Fighting humidity 101 here but getting there. Did a little test run with a couple of hands full of trim with my latest purchase. My wife got sent to town on a mission by her boss.

So typical me I didn't think things through again. Starting to look like a dispensary in here and I'm only halfway through trim jail and run out of curing vessels. Freezer is full (800g trim, popcorn and some washed bud) waiting to be turned into hash. So freezing not an option. I need suggestions on storing close to another 1kg until I can get my hands on more jars and grove bags.

Getting there. Burnt a few plants during my first h2o2 wash. Lesson learnt. High humidity and mould seem to be the challenge at the moment but I think I got a handle on it. DIY drying box using some chicken wire.

Cancel all appointments and hold the calls. Managed another 6 days with 1 days heavy rain. Don't think she would have appreciated today's rain.

As close as I can get to drying room conditions. Fan on 24/7 then another fan sometimes, sometimes the heater is on and sometimes I have to open the door a bit. Juggling job of note. Unfortunately overnight temps drop and humidity climbs to 80%. Don't like leaving a heater on overnight. 11 hanging and 12 still in shade house.

The two left in tyre garden still going strong.

Fuck it. I'm gonna ride out the storm. Plants still need some time. 17 left in the shade house looking very top heavy. I'll do running repairs. 6 with signs of bud rot appearing have been chopped over the last week and hanging.

10 days of rain predicted starting with 96% tonight. This season is fast coming to an end wether I like it or not.

you know how to keep the addiction going. Think I learnt a lot this season.

@Bay Seeds Wonderland Express autoflower. Chopped today. Day 76ish. I totally did something wrong with this batch. Wish I didn't but learnt a lot. I chopped and nose shoved the bud in my wifes face and asked about aromas. Smells like death she says. Can't wait until the smoke test. Small plant but the, I don't know how to explain. I'm proud to have grown this plant with such deep colours. Thanks bud.

Sorry. Upload changed the pic order on the purple and wet trim. Sure you can figure it out. ☺

1st 3 pics chopped & wet trimmed 4 days back. Following 3 chopped & wet trimmed today. Bud rot appearing but not too bad. Purple plants Wonderland Express autoflower from @Bay Seeds. Then the rest. Shitting myself. Weatherman says kak weather the next two weeks besides the normal West Coast mist.

Flash time.

My favourite 6 in no particular order. Bud shot, portrait shot followed by top shot.

@Bay Seeds autoflower in the shade house. If it sprouts on the reservation I nurture it. Working on a plan for a greenhouse, MAN, autoflowers are a real challenge.
