All 14 plants were harvested.In total, I ended up with a 1/4 pound of bud after completely drying.It is curing now.It will continue to get better with each day of curing but it is ok to smoke now.
So with a little planning my 1st real crop of the summer came in.I was smoking the Purple Jem as I watched the 4th of July fireworks last night.
Plants were harvest at 9 weeks old.They could of went another week if not for the Midwest heat wave.With the heat I decided to take them early.Average weight per plant was 8 grams.
8 were grown in the ground and the other 6 were in 4 gal. thin,black, plastic nursery buckets.The buckets had Promix Bx in them, which has the water absorbing gel in it.I used simple Water soluble nutrients 10-15-10.
As long as they get rain every 5-10 days they will grow.And in June it usually rains here 2 times a week.I just set them 20ft. off the side of a dirt road in some fresh clear cut.
I have twenty 10 day old seedlings thay will go outside around the 1st week of August and there are 4 P. Jem plants in the field right now that are 5-6 weeks old and will be harvested the end of this month.So I should be able to pull 3-4 more grows with this cycle before Holloween.
A pic or two of some of the top buds is below, enjoy.
