Couple of dark shots after chop. Removed big leaves with stems. Switched the hub to 60f/60h. I don't think it will get quite there but should be close. I'll keep an eye on the stats today and adjust what I can. Hoping for a nice slow dry. Then will be trimming, hopefully a little dry ice hash, and jar.

Quick update on the chocolate diesel. In ny limited experience, I do think this is the bushiest plant I have had at this size. Have to find the right angle to see main stalk. I did drop another bean the other night but she hasn't poked through for me yet. I may have killed this one exoeriementing with root wise during the initial shot glass bath. Last few I have just done plain water and had a taproot around 24 hours later then in dirt she went. This one didn't give me a root but I planted her anyway in hopes that she just wasn't quite ready. If I don't see her tonight I will probably drop another to try and keep on schedule

Dropped another double dipped strawberries by @Useful Seeds because I was antsy, and that one showed a root but it was after it the shotgladd had been knocked off the cable box and the seed was hanging from a spider web. I threw it back in the shot glass with a drop or two of hydrogen peroxide and she showed me her tail. My antsyness made me drop a third because I was so rough on seed two. Seed two went in the bin from blueberries and oranges and will go outside as an experiment. Seed three showed me her tail after a quick 24hr bath so in the dirt she went yesterday. Well wouldn't ya know it, the original double dipped that I was too impatient for poked out today lol. So I may end up with three dds going along with the chocolate diesel.

Not as much fun when nothing is in flower but once the CD goes to flower my veg only updates will end. I did take a tiny sample of the blueberries and oranges and it is still nice and wet with a few days of drying to go so full flavor wasn't there but excellent smoke none the less. Chocolate diesel is still humming along and the third double dipped strawberries seed stood up for me yesterday. She wasn't buried deep enough so she came out with a helmet on. I carefully took the helmet off and she seems ok today. The regulars in the useful thread are all raving about the DDS so I am excited to see what she brings to the table. Also started setting up the big sip for her yesterday and will finish her up today so the soil community can get established

Been slacking so finally got caught up and back on schedule. Chocolate diesel got a layer of bus blend, bas ewc, craft blend, and kashi blend. Same layer was added to the big bin that I just put the Ddounle dipped strawberries. I still enjoy the perspective shots. Definitely gonna have to clean up the bottom of the CD before I flip but have until 5/21 before I flip

I remember when I first got into growing last week and reading finger count was a potential indicator of plant health and happiness. I'm thinking it's more of a genetic element as the CD has not been the happiest plant but threw 11. 20220426_002552.jpg

Felt like trying something new so I bent everything outward since I haven't topped this one. I'm going to have to figure something out to fix the extra humidity from this tent being in front of the window shaker when it comes time to flower her. Might be a fun cardboard project lol20220502_215019.jpg

Final top dress for Chocolate Diesel. Lgs didn't have bu's blend so I went with the oly mtn. I cleaned up the bottom a little bit to make it easier to get my lid off. It needs more but I knew I still needed to do the topdress. Since I was in the cutting/ripping branches mode and I topped the DDS. I also set up the next bin with oly mtn for a Blue Dream x Chocolate Diesel by useful which is sprouting right meow.20220509_013128.jpg20220509_000817.jpg

Didn't like the progress of the first blue dream x chocolate diesel so scuffed and soaked a seed the other day. Just put her in her micro sip. Let's hope this one does better for me. I also gave a handful of compost to the extra double dipped strawberries I have in the nursery tent because she was cannabalizing herself in the one gallon so I figured I'd experiment and see if I can give myself more time to play with her

Chocolate diesel is getting the flip this weekend, double dipped is coming along and hopefully the blue dream will poke her head up tonight or tomorrow
