Rush dried a few nugs of KSB4
Just twisted a pinner. Still damp so hard to light but once lit it tastes like spicy blue berry VERY tasty and its not dry or cured yet!!
I can't wait to try some after its been dried.
Damn roots did not grow well at all. plant looked happy just small.
I tried to chop all fan leaves before flip into flower. BIG mistake with KSB. it caused stuf to throw nanners. That and using tubing to water half the garden at a time has mad some get over watered. Seems like anything with berry in it is real sensitive to ferts, water cycle, environment. Any flux cause hermies but happy plants throw huge stanky danky nuggys
The KSB 4 I got hanging is finally dry enough to smoke a joint
not cured in jar yet but still verrrrrrry tasty!!!!!! picked at 62 days to sample. glad I did, the roots were not happy most of flower it looked like they never really spread much through the dirt. the whole stalk root ball and all pulled right out with barely a tug but now wright this I remembered ksb4 falling over from weight and no stakes when I rotated the flower room so that helps explain the sorry looking roots.
The buds are so dense and stinky I couldn't understand how she got so pretty with no root growth to speak of.
The few roots that did manage to grow looked very white and healthy so there was no root rot to speak of. The base of the KSB4 was fat and healthy all the way to the soil line and into soil about two or three inches then damn near nothing just a few thin roots some with michrohize looking hairs.
Looks like the plant bending at the base at 4 weeks caused some trauma and the plant recovered quite well.
proof to me that the recycled soil with act is super healthy way to go for plants!!!
I think if I was using bottles this one would have went all brown after that big bend. I could actually feel some breaking inside the stalk when moveing the plant. almost was total loss. glad to get anything. Damn happy with KSB4 will have weight and dry pics soon
