Hey, it’s been a while! Finally chopped my manifold girl today, this is the last known photo of her alive.

I decided to finish this one in the greenhouse and of course I ended up with a bad whitefly problem. I was able to knock them out with a couple rounds of spinosad and then a week later she was ready to move on.

I decided to do a bud wash (procedure here) to get rid of the dead bugs and whatnot, she’s hanging up to dry now.

The other 2 plants are already dried, I started curing them today. 71g in the jars so far and I’m about 20-25% done. Those gals had the fly problem too so they got the same treatment and wash.

I’m interested to see how the wash affects the final cured buds, anybody here ever try that?

I'm a total newb, will the "after" power a new generation like a clone?

Naw, that's just her bones. The time to take a clone is when the plant is still in is vegetative phase, this one was a fully flowered old lady.

You can get some interesting explosive results if you monstercrop at about 3 weeks of flower.

It’s usually just about the right time for it to get roots and veg for a month to be ready when the others are done flowering.

It’s one way to save from having a mom and keep a continual crop and not have an over vegged clone.

Edit, or even reveg from a little left over flowered plant too, the possibilities are endless with this plant.

Sure, if you throw into a proper recycling container. Or compost it yourself.

Or compost it yourself.

That's exactly what I do, good point :)
