GROW JOURNAL - RAVENPLUME WILDLINGS 2019 - Quick Check In

This is really more of a check in than a full fledged update, as right now, I think the only thing to do from here on out is wait until the girls are ready to harvest. They are all covered with sugar right now, but if I understood various sources correctly, that sugar needs to turn to honey, aka go from white to gold. In fact, and someone can correct me if I am wrong here, but I think a good way to remember is "Trichomes white, buzz too light. Trichomes yellow, stone a fellow."

So I am guessing by the end of October, the girls may be ready to start harvesting. I will likely start with Wildfire, since she is the oldest, or at least the one that flowered up soonest. She is small enough, that after leaves and other scrap are removed, all her buds should be able to cure in the actual bud room down in the basement grow facility.

Bessie can also have a spot down there too, with her single but nicely budded stock and ample branches. Tink will do her curing in the downstairs bathroom. It is just being used for storage right now anyway, and it was good enough for last year's Tardis Lite.

I am also wondering if perhaps I should harvest Wildfire and Tink in phases, stretched out over a few weeks, or just get them all at once after I deem them golden enough?
