Mt. Goat's 2012 Medical Greenhouse

I harvested a few plants last month and they're pretty well cured at this point. Two easyryder autos, about an ounce per plant. They're slightly different in color but smell and taste similar, a fruity aroma that is kinda like they smelled while growing, but less candy like now. My wife loves the smell and taste, I'd say they're of medium potency.
The other one I harvested was a clone of my bag seed kush that I force flowered in order to sex another plant. It is fairly dark green in color after curing, with a strong fuel type smell and powerful stoned type high. I got about 3 oz. off this plant and I'm stoked to have two more in flower right now. These weights are just estimates, I don't have a scale. I also lost about a third of the kush to a mold that grew on some of the buds early in curing. I didn't let them dry well enough before jarring, but purchased a couple hydrometers to hopefully avoid that mistake in the future. I kiefed some of the trim and small buds and made ganja butter with the rest, great stuff.
Many thanks to simon for his curing thread and also the butter making thread! Smoking my own tasty organic buds is an amazing pleasure, and I do appreciate all you people who take the time to pass on great info here at IC Mag.

Very nice Mr goat ....keep it green ....shrpshooter
Thanks sharpshooter.
Phate, a couple of the cuts are rooting well, but I think the fish might be nibbling on them. Anyone ever tried growing edible fish like trout or tilapia in a greenhouse?
All of the mature plants are flowering as of last week. My oldest Durban turned out to be a male, so I cut it down. Kind of a bummer, but I have three more of them about to show sex so hopefully one or two will be girls. Also a OG#18 and a delahaze joined the crew. More pictures to follow shortly...

Also, I harvested two kushes last week. Trimmed and jarred one, the yield was four quart sized mason jars. Does anybody know approx how much one quart jar full is in terms of grams or oz? The other kush hasn't been trimmed and jarred yet, still drying, but I guess it will be 5-6 quart jars.
I've taken a few lower buds as they finish and so far it's pointing towards pretty good quality and potency. The buds are far more dense and smelly than the bag seed Kushes previously harvested. I don't know if it's genetics or the light dep. or what, but I'm glad this next round of harvest is shaping up well!
Harvested 10.06:
White Widow, Dinafem
Veg 90 days, Flowered 69 days
158 grams dry (no popcorn)
Grown in LC's Mix #2, 8 gallon pot, watered with fish tank water during veg, rain water during flower. Some compost teas and Roots organics were used. Lightly LST'd. The odor and taste are both very subtle, as they were in flower. Potency I'd say is about a 7/10.

Harvested 10.19:
(3) Early Durban, Flying Dutchman
Veg 90 days, Flowered 79 days
159 non-moldy grams, dry
Grown in LC's Mix #2, 3 and 5 gallon pots, watered with fish tank water during veg, rain water during flower. Some compost teas and Roots organics were used. No topping or training. Very intense smell and flavor, high is short and mediocre, 6/10. Parts of all three main colas had bud rot, only plants in the greenhouse to suffer from this. Super leafy and fluffy, sativa like buds. I have about 5 more seeds out of this pack which I won't be planting.

Hi Gallito, just saw your post. I got the fiberglass glazing at a franchise lumber store, ACE Hardware. For the ridge cap I used a piece of 6"x6" Galvanized flashing I had laying around in the boneyard. It's a 90 degree bend, which works on my roof pitch, 12:12 or 45 degrees. Fastened down to the high points of the corrugations. I won't post exterior pics here, but if you need more info let me know and I'll try to explain.
