Hombre, thanks for the steps and pics. This will really help me out when I finally harvest my KA5H. I've been reading the posts and trying to put it all together in my head for when the time comes and this steps with pics is awesome.
Thanks for taking the time to do this!

Your welcome my friend.
Tomorrow, when I open them up after the 12hr sweat I'll document the next step.
I'm thinking I'd quite like to grow the KillerA5 myself. Is it very strong smelling?; I can't be doing with growing overly strong smelling weed.
The pheno that I have doesn't have hardly any odor. It's been kinda nice after growing some indicas that had my whole home smelling like skunk. If I rub the stems there is a odor and it's not very pleasant but its limited to just my hands. Some other folks growing it on here have reported that they do have an odor with their pheno.
Give it a go.
I believe @blondie and @spigolaro are growing smelly phenos. Hopefully they will comment.
Thanks
So similar its uncanny I am sure its related.
Great tutorial please dont stop.
I cant wait to see the others and the results this is how it should be shown.
I have finished my spring clean down to just the primo cures now.
This one was from 2020 Panama lemon pheno of the Honduras x Panama.
I chewed about 0.25g a while ago now and its coming on fast love this stuff.
Lost everything a moment ago ha ha I better hurry up and post this before things start getting loopy ha ha
Panama always takes me by surprise ha ha.
Lastly the most aromatic funky hashish and fermented fruit smelling Purple Honduras x Panama from 2019.
I nearly took this one as well it smelt so darn good, but now I'm thinking it was a wise decision to stay with the first one alone.
Tomorrow will be fine for this baby ha ha. Strong fast paced high coming on now yeeha going to get me my hoss ha ha.

So, following on from yesterdays post.
The 2 cobs have been sat at 45c for 12hrs.
This morning I opened them up.
No visible water droplets, but noticeably more moist than they were.
I've dried them off by letting them sit unbagged in the dehydrator at 35c for 1 1/2hrs.
They since been re bagged and vacced and will be left sitting at around 35c for the next week or so until I check them.

Cant wait to see how they evolve sounds very sweet at the moment.
The coming months are the most exciting for me.
And me too!
I've got a big hedge to trim tomorrow that PHonduras x Pananama cob will make it a breeze ha ha.
OR maybe the Mulanje x Malawi/Ethiopian although on that one I get distracted easily.
Starting to feel like my old self again getting into the aged cobs is so exciting speed freak on ecstacy ha ha.
My Mulanje x Malawi/Ethiopian is coming on nicely. I'm posting pictures at this very moment.
Today I've taken Zamal 0.3g and am very spaced out! I'd forgotten I'd had it and wondered why I was struggling to type.
It's much improved from just a couple of months ago! Love it,

Made another 3 this morning.
The Zac Tribute is now a little drier and I will be using less heat to start them off; 35c rather than 45c.
Trying to achieve a more colourful terpy cure.

@Hombre del mont can you tell me what is the diameter of the tubes you use? These things are looking good. Looking forward to the next update!
Oh boy I love the uniform look and from how you describe the flowers aroma a colorful terpy result is going to be heaven in that department haha.
Also cant wait to see how they come out, its like waiting for the next episode of a tv series keep them coming brother this is gold to watch.
Hi @Rotty
I just like the uniform shape it produces.
Usually I like to turn them more into a rounded brick shape by standing on the vac bag and letting my weight squash it.
I'll post some more pictures once I take them out of the bag later this morning.
Good morning to you @RottyRzr , the tube diameter is 38mm, although I don't consider it that important.

The 3 that I made yesterday spent 12hrs at 35c and this morning they've been taken out of the bags to dry the surface. They certainly aren't wet, but there is some moisture on the surface.
I've given them 1/2hr un bagged in the dehydrator at 35c and they're dry.
Here they are on the right of the picture,
Top left is a small 10g cob of a friends Zac tribute and has been made about 2 weeks (I forget, but it doesn't really matter)
Bottom left is 40g of a friend's white widow, that's been made almost 2 weeks, I think,
Middle 2 are the Zac tributes I made on Monday.
Everything has been dried up and has been vacced up again.
Now they will all sit on top of my amplifier at around 35c for however long it takes.
I thought I'd have them all out this morning and give them an airing (drying).
