All good jbg! The nugs she spits out are literally dense as all getout, so I don't mind the non-donksicle factor with her. 
I'm curious to see what the yield on this one is, especially vs. the Headband I just yanked..

Looks like you got some great buds to enjoy with your Yuenglings while you grow your next crop!(Have you ever tried Lord Chesterfield ale?)Nice job and nice meeting a fellow purveyor of America's oldest brewery.
Thanks Superstone! I meant to get some Yuenglings to take home (they don't sell it in the mitten).. Was in such a hurry to get out of Ohio that I just said "Meh, I'll get 'em next time." (The plan was to get 5 cases - a nice round $100) 
So, it occurred to me today that I've been mis-counting the days since, like, ever. You know how I noticed?
The f*cking tag IN THE POT has the date on it - 9/23. I've been counting as if it's 9/26. Not a dramatic difference, but it's a manifestation of the stoner that I am.
Anyway. That means that today is the end of week TEN. Yikes.
Trichs on the Chem4D are getting close.. Need to re-examine.
The USD still has a smidgen to go. I was inspecting today and found a small popcorn kernel that must've gotten snagged when I was turning the USD around in the tent to inspect her.. Looks like I'll get an accidental preview smoke.

Live to fight another day..
Live to fight another day..
And I will, dammit.
Tail between my legs here, folks. I'm a little bit frustrated with the whole situation (well, not really, but annoyed enough) that I'm not really interested in getting into the particulars, .. This should suffice:
Total haul
Purple Mr. Nice - 22 g
Hindu Kush - 16 g + 22 g
Ultimate Strawberry Diesel - 44 g
Headband - 45 g
Strawberry Diesel x Chemdog - 3 g (ha!)
Chem 4D - 23 g
------------------------
175 g
6.16 oz
.4375 g/w
Weight, not a huge letdown.. But the PM really ruined my party this time. The PMN is essentially a total loss - right to the QWISO pile. So, heck, take'er off the top, we're right down to 155 g, ..
Plenty of pictures exist, but here's what y'all needa see most:

Wow. Didn't realize this thing was still here!
Nothin' sexy, but here're a few shots, shortly before they got yanked:
Chem 4D
Ultimate Strawberry Diesel
..just looking gnarly.. This gal went for ~82 days (81 or 84, can't recall
). She didn't want to finish up, .. Yeesh.
Drying - a few varieties here, I think some Hindu Kush as well..
Thanks for taggin' along folks, .. Next time, I'm expecting a complete overhaul. More, more, and moar! Will be applying the painfully learned lessons from this'n, and approaching it like a real-live Poindexter - pocket protector and all. More light, more space, and more brains. (Smarts, not guts)
Some of y'all have been as kind as to entertain & indulge my questions, questions, (more questions), and some fantasy for the next run.
..and I'll continue to pick y'alls brains, so long's ya let me!
Until next time, .. Onward, and upward! And all the while, twirling, twirling, TWIRRLING OUR WAY TO VICTORY!

YOU'RE BACK! So good to see you back, and even better to see you 'round these parts!
Yeah, .. I used to be a solid modern-day beer snob, .. Sierra Nevada Pale Ale was always the go-to, .. Then, I bought a house. Perhaps bigger'n I needed. (2000 square feet for me and the old lady - leaves me plenty of "leamme alone" space) ..And you know what? I soon found myself finding that yellow beer was .. Well.. Do-able. $9.99 for a sixer o' SN or $5.69 for a sixer o' Lebatt?!
Or, my mixup trick: Buy a 24 oz Sierra Nevada ($3.59), drink that first to tickle the brain cells & whet the palate, .. And then move on to the 24 oz can o' Lebatt ($1.50).

haha, i know what you mean. ten bucks for a sixer of heini has always irritated me. but you make a good point, 3 for the big un, then on to a cheaper sub, (rolling rock? no canuck beers down here)
its good to be back. im uploading a few pics to freedom 35 to hold me over for a few days until i get back in the saddle

There's a mom and pop grocery store around here that sometimes has "Sierra Nevada / All varieties $6.99." .. That, I like.
In drinking news, I'm very bummed for the weekend dammit. First time the Lions have been in the postseason in 11 years, .. A buddy on the other side of town is having a party, .. And what do I have going on? My [otherwise awesome] f*cking BOWLING LEAGUE. (Read: Drinking pitchers of shitty beer & eating ganj cookies).
Lions play at 8:30, bowling usually ends around 8:30. Party is 45 minutes away. F*CK.
Oh, woe is me. The tribulations I face..

How do you decide when to harvest? Do you go by trichs or whether or not the plant is still spitting out pistils? The USD will never stop spitting out pistils it seems... but if you watch the trichs, they'll turn around 11 weeks. I don't have her so dialed that I can give a definitive answer though.
Different things that stress the plants out can prolong flowering. You'll see bro, the better you get at growing, the better the plants will turn out. Another tip for getting the plants to finish... Is to make sure they're well flushed. Nitrogen delays flowering. You cut off the fan leaves as suggested, so I can't really tell how well flushed they were... lol...
Anyway, good pull! Can't wait to see what you come up with for the next grow.
edit: that chem4D is ugly... ha ha... but it looks like you did pretty well with the USD for all the whining you did about the finishing time. Can't wait to hear the yield.

Hey bobbles!
I generally go by a combination of pistils, trichs, and general swole-ness.. (How's that for a helpful answer?)
The USD actually slowed the pistil spittin', but the trichs wouldn't come around for the longest.. Same with the calyxes and their swelling.
They all looked gnarly by the time they finished. Was not my finest hour..
Yields are up in a post above, somewhere. I think I did about 44g on the USD, .. No joke, I had a Headband in dirt last time, same size (if not a smidgen smaller), .. And that fucker yielded 90 grams. NINETY. THREE OUNCES.
All good. Like dad says, most educations are either painful, or expensive (or both!).

Headband vs Headband
Same cut, twice grown. Once organic dirt back in August, one hydro back in December..
Which is which, and who is who?
On a side note, this camera sucks. Just bought with giftage from the outlaws, but boy does it suck. It took about 12 photos to get these three. Barely holding on to the gotd*amned camera, so's to not get in the way of the damned light.

Ummmm. I don't drink beer much but when I do they are damn near 9bucks a piece. A bomber of three Floyd's zombie dust does me well.
