Well after discovering bud rot a day ago I’ve completed my first ever harvest of obama kush. Luckily I only found bud rot on the inner part of the main cola. I did the peroxide wash on a number of the flowers that was near the main cola but did not on the rest. I figure I’m trying to cover all bases by not washing all of them just in case things go south with the dry. I know everyone says the peroxide bath doesn’t increase the chance of mold but I feel better doing what I did. So i trimmed them all up and they are hanging in the closet from hangers. I’ve got a fan on the outside pointed at the closet and a small fan inside the closet on the floor of the far side pointed at the drying flowers. I also have put a number of loose nugs on a mesh hanger. I know that can cause a bit of flatness but I’ll roll them around a bit. I tried to make sure to spread out the buds a bit but there are still some super dense buds I’m worried about. I know this is the beginning of the most important part so I’ll probably pick up a dehumidifier tomorrow. Trying to keep it at 75 degrees with 45% humidity for the first two days then 70 degrees at 50% after that. But everything considered I’m happy. I have my sunset sherbet I’m planning on taking down Thursday and that girl is even bigger. ![20181027_183431](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/6/2/62905a488afdafa866bcb3b47e6a714179e12c5d.jpeg) ![20181027_183417](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/7/2/72bd6090311142e85f2ec2a00b04a8ecdefd71ca.jpeg) ![20181027_183425](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/9/6/9602021db3a7432f21fece211374e149ba77fc0f.jpeg) ![20181027_183440](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/8/1/812b75ef670cc2e50751c5d4cfa376d3b95ff103.jpeg) ![20181027_183449](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/c/7/c7cf54c0ec72a8058f084bce496a5d9d8b916466.jpeg) ---

Thank you everyone on the congratulations. Im certainly happy with my work so far. It took me around 9-10 hours to trim all that up but it was my first time ever trimming bud as well, so I was watching a lot of videos lol. Yeah it certainly has a fruity with cheese undertones smell. I have a sunset sherbet hybrid that I’m taking down this weekend but hopefully it’s a little easier to trim up. My goal between the two plants was 12 ounces so I could have an ounce a month and not HAVE to buy cannabis. How close will I intimately come to that, _shrugs_ no clue but it’s been a super fun experience and the fact that I will get to enjoy my own flower and share it with those I love is an amazing feeling. Cheers everyone and I’ll keep updating as I take down the next plant. ---

Did you take a wet weight? And heads up. Those buds are pretty close. Space that a bit and if u dont have it a nice breeze helps. ---

There is a small fan on the floor of the closet and I’ve tried to make sure none of the buds are touching while hanging. No I haven’t taken any weights yet. Honestly it was my first harvest and I was freaking BEAT at the end lol. ---

Great job. Those are some beautiful nugs. Looks like you really knocked the first round out of the park. Also that’s a very nice trim job you did. Great color. What’s the smell like? ---

I would describe the smell as “funky fruit”. It has a sweet fruit smell but with a sort of cheese undertone to it. I am a big fan of funky cheese strains so I’m excited to see what it does with drying.
