So I finally get around to cleaning out the freezer - and the first shelf I tackle has this...
I still do not have the reserves , i would like to have ,i made rso out of bout1/2 of the last harvest and still have enought to hold me till new year ,i started taking cuts of different plants, in this current grow ,my clone rates are getting better !!Thanks, but I ain't a farmer yet. I think I may have a knack for it or a green thumb or something, but I also love to smoke weed a LOT - so I care. I was raised in New Orleans with a garden beside the house in the flower bed. Never was near a farm or had land to play with like this. I'm learning as I go and taking notes (this) and I don't care if I fuck something up and people see it. Early pages of this I was burning plants left and right. Looking at dumb-ass ways to conserve weed - because that's what true stoners do if they don't have a good stash. Now
Here's part of why I have been putting stuff off. I needed freezer space for food. That meant decision time.

This is from the CLG contest purple plants to date. Some is just the last little bit that didn't age well, some is whole plants that didn't do it for me.

I have 3 decarb machines going and the larges are in the big one. 78g of that didn't fit. That's not a scary amount for a bubble run. One ice-maker tub of ice should do it. The other option is dry sift. It's not going back in the freezer so that might be the ticket. I can let it dry out and that's good. The shake from the bowl already got screened and I have a few grams of glands.

@H.A.F.are the winged beans a pole type or a bush bean?Stoner snacks - living soil geek gardener style. I love snacking over meals, but not trash. I like to have a big pot of soup or stew or chili in the fridge and be able to warm some up whenever. I like to add some fresh stuff when I reheat it so it's just better. How many other stoners you know out picking winged beans at midnight?

I only planted a few plants of each type of bean I tried and this is the only one to do well. Just picked a mess two days ago and these are the ones I could find ripe enough in the dark

Verrrry pole. I think three plants took over a corner of the fence. Nice blue flowers the hummingbirds love, and the beans can get huge. The only drawback to them I see is you pretty much need to go harvest-to-pot. Storage is the downside I think. They start looking harsh with the wings browning like a cut apple after a day.

I have had comfortable strategic cannabis reserves for a while now, but the culling is a new thing. I honestly think that since I started growing organic and not fucking recipes up the stuff has gotten more potent, or lasts longer or something. People want to down-talk it - but I ain't that good.
I think it took that contest where I had more plants than I was initially comfortable with to put me over the top where I can be selective at harvest or just after it's dry instead of having to jar everything then gradually replace good with better.
But as I learn what terps and strains rock my boat I am also selecting better stuff to grow that has a possibility of meeting my needs. Or what breeders, since their selections during the process are what make the weed.

Random stoner note. The moon phase planting has been pretty spot on so I'll mostly be sticking with it now. Decided to get a poster so I'd have 2023 at a glance with graphics instead of little circles in the corner of a regular calendar.
Out of curiosity I printed up a copy and circled all the dates of my harvests in 2022. there were a few randoms, but in general the bulk of them fell within a few days of either the full moon OR the new moon.
Looking at the tents now - during the new moon - and I have the BA the the G13G that could harvest any day. Me letting them go is just because they're healthy and no nanners LOL. But the rest from that drop look to have at least a week left. Wanna bet they have two more weeks left - or four?
Anyone else notice anything like that?

Urizun Japanese Winged Bean Seeds - Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Co (rareseeds.com)
$5.00 is one of their more expensive packs of seeds
I bought their print catalog because it has everything they offer. A lot of stuff you'd have to know about and search for to find on their site. Bandwidth or something, they only post their top sellers on the site pages. So you see 2 pages of beans instead of 20 or whatever.

Fall is cool here. The autumn concert series has started...
Across the road and about a 1/4 mile down there's an old barn the owner refurbished and put a huge patio/awning on. By a lake, small pier, folding tables and chairs - all for rent to city folk for wedding receptions and graduation parties
Far enough away that I can be inside and not be bothered but I can sit on the porch and listen if they have decent music.

The babies are 90% killing it. The Reveille runt has regular foliage now, even the mini M&S runt os praying - the Gods Paintbrush in the corner is not happy and hasn't been ever. 
Checking trichs and had one section of one pic really focused. Nice uniform trich formation and gland size on the BA. I guess GMO's washing well and this pic make sense.

Wednesday the closet hits 4 weeks. I need to remember that they have another week plus after flip they'll be stretching and still in the 1g pots.
If the Reveille wasn't a tester I'd hold that runt back a little. The Milk & Sugar will go in the 3x3 veg tent to chill under lower light for a while. Might induce some stretch. Every leaf is frosty so I don't want to cull it.
