I am sprawled here on my ‘adult’ beanbag enjoying the fruits of my labors and one of them random thoughts came wandering by……
Why is my (first harvest, I hate to ask what I screwed up) weed so gentle? I am getting the typical results and feel pretty darned good about myself, but it is like there is nothing in the bowl. Not coughing, no hit in the chest; just high minded …… ya know
Did I trim too much? The stuff is also very spongy- light, bouncy, doesn’t clump.
It was harvested in early July and each mason jar has a moisture pack in it. The gauge reads 48 rel humid. I have the jars at 3/4 full, not tightly packed.
When I open the jars I get a wonderful smell of marijuana; no funk. Bright and crisp.
Come to think of it, this may be the freshest dope I have ever toked.
That’s what you want homie is the smooth inhale and great high. That means your first grow was an absolute success. Congratulations, you’re now smoking the top shelf. Enjoy that shit to the fullest, you’ve earned it!
The buds were not spongy, this stuff is spongy after I pick it apart, grind it up and put it in the mason jar for storage. That is when the spongy feel comes in.
The buds, not really “commercially grown” tight, but not spongy really either. They will flake a bit around the edges but they don’t crush or crumble like what I pick up at dispensaries either.
I had pretty much everything that could go wrong in the grow, go wrong. I am surprised to end up with anything useful at all. But, I don’t think I will be buying again… this is so nice!
thanks for the comments, and I will keep watching here for more to learn.

I found the best way to learn is ask questions. There is a lot of experience here and great people that will help. I’ve learned so much here , still learning and getting great advice. They have even pretty much babysat me through my first grow and put up with me second guessing myself all the time.
