Show us your 1 ounce cola buds!

Now that I'm growing large plants under a large light, I am blown away by the size of the buds I'm producing! I have 4 more weeks til harvest, so I'm guessing, but by looking at a few of the heaviest branches in my garden, it seems there might be a few colas weighing in around a full ounce, after dried!

So I want to see other people's 1oz+ colas. Show us what a massive cola bud should look like! Please? It'll help me to estimate the weight on my own. :D

:thank you:

be careful not to count your chickens!,,,or you could be very dissapointed,,
i hope your colas weigh up huge but its so easy to overestimate before your fruit is dried,,
pics below is a sweetooth 3 cola at just under an ounce but on the plant before cutdown she looked like three ounces!
good luck,,,peace and regards s2

Yeah, that's why I was hoping someone would show us some actual 1 oz colas, or even just, you know, ~25 grams or so. :D

The majority of the ones in my garden are going to end up being about a half ounce or so. That's an honest estimate. But then I look at a couple of the biggest ones, and I think, damn these look twice the size as the other ones, is this going to weigh a full ounce? Haha. I know it's a dream, but not really an unachievable one.

I really would like to see what a 1 ounce cola would look like. I imagine it would have to be a dense indica, or a really, really long sativa branch!

Awesome pics 944s2!!! That's what I wasn't to see! Sweeeeet!

larger cola weighed 27.3....search some chronic or critical mass grows or outside grows,
dont really no what you are looking for?
as other colas can be much shorter and weigh up much more,can have very large but very airy sativa buds that look like they will blow the scales off but another story when dried and i am pretty sure with the more runs that you have "under your belt" getting 1oz+ colas will be totally acheivable for you.... good luck anyway, peace and safe growing,, s2

That's it, I just want to see some 1 ounce buds, just like you showed us! That's all I am looking for. If anyone else would like to step up to the plate, that would be appreciated! :D

I had a few big ones also but now I would honestly rather have smaller buds but more of them... I just get really nervous of getting bud rot and mold and stuff like that when it comes to dealing with them big ass colas...many times I've had big fat ass colas only come to find out in the last week or so before harvest that its filled with mold or bud rot or whatever... Nasty shit. Good luck though...

most people cut up their colas so they dont mold , thats why there isnt loads of dry cola pics, cause they tried to dry it and got the mold and never ever ever do it again after ya get the mold once.

It can be pictures of the cola while it is still growing, before harvest, or even after chop, but before drying. If any of that helps to get more pictures posted. I am new to big buds, so I want to see other people's too. I had no clue my buds would be so much larger by upgrading to 1000 watts! Most are going to be about a half ounce each, but a few really look like they might approach a full one, so I want to compare to others.

I should have been clearer from the start, but yeah, it doesn't have to be a dry shot.

Yeah that's what I started to do just for precautionary reasons...

What size bulb did u used to run? I used to run a 400 back when I got my 1st light... Still got some decent sizednugs off that light as well...

Think I will head to my drying spot and start cutting my bigger buds down to smaller pieces. That for reminding me of last harvest fails

I used to run a 400. The difference between that and 1000w is staggering.

Yea but don't forget that distance to the light can make a staggering difference as well. I've grown on 400w vertical with huge nugs and grown small buds with multiple 1000w. I'd rather have the plants 6-8 inches away from a 400w than 2-3 feet from 1000w. It's a mistake I'm guilty of making myself in the past and judging from many people's pics I see online it's a mistake a lot of others make as well.
