Thats just so cool that the hummingbird would land on m hand. It has lived at this house longer than I have which is 8 years now, but has never got very close to us. Fights off any other hummingbird no matter how many feeders we put out. Last year it had 2 babies that were run off soon as they came of age. Doesn't migrate which I thought a little odd

Here are the requested root pics. I gave it a good hard shake but barely anything came off. Will let it dry take a hatchet and recycle the mix. In the down tube were enough roots to maybe plug a 3/4 inch piece of pvc. If i had to guess between 1.5 and 2 elbows off this Holy Grail.

nice bird

nice bird

Hey thirdtime, nice grow, nice harvest and nice bird.
Very cool that it eating practically right out of your hand.

Here's my quick hummingbird story.

I had a van and went in it to clean it stuff one weekend. A hummingbird was buzzing around and banging into the windows. I had left a window down a bit.
I captured her carefully against a window and stepped out to show my wife and let it go. I had one hand over the other cupping my hands so the bird would not be harmed. When I opened my hand to show my wife, it fell over on its side. we looked at it and suddenly it stood up and buzzed away.

it was cool to be holding a bird in the hand though.

cheers

Thought I would share a couple of pics of trimming up to go into cure containers. After 2 days hanging I moved into a garment box to slow down the drying. In the desert so it drys fast. Now I am trimming up to fit into plastic containers. Have a 17g container with racks to put the big buds and 2 pet food storage for smaller. Quite a bit of shrinkage, most tops barely fit through the 3 in. net not so fat now though.
The Sam OG is getting closer a lot of the fading leaves are dry and crunchy.
