I gave her an hour to dry and she's hanging in the garage.
18% CBD & 0.5% THC. I'm extracting this one with coconut oil and making caps and a big hit, lotion. Helps healing of skin from cuts and abrasions as well as minor muscle and joint aches and pains and it works quickly. I'm blending it 1 to 1 with TCH extracted separately, adding bees wax, olive oil and vitamin E. This is some serious medicine and we've been giving it away to a few people to try and they love it.
I tried using just CBD and another batch just THC. Both worked well for relieving muscle pain, the only thing we tried it on. Maybe it's time I grew the shit out of the hemp, produce a steady stream of CBD coconut oil lotion and sell it at local Farmer Markets. A friend had paid $129 for a 4oz jar. It was a nice jar? and if you look around that's about the avg price. I could sell it $40 4oz & $25 2oz. I'd really like to do something else to make $?
She cleaned up well

All 8 weeks, 56 days since flip. Very few have very little amber, just a couple here and there so we wait.
There's another Gorilla Hammer and 2 Mother's Milk up the hill I'll get to in a bit. Little amber there as well. We're down to 10:15 hours of light a day which hinders growth as well daily temperatures and changes as well as the plants locations. On the Eastside they only get direct sun 3-4 hrs a day as there's a tree that semi shades that area and one reason it was chosen. Up the hill as well there are shading trees and even the lg greenhouse do defuse direct sunlight most of the day, again one reason that location was used.
I've seen this before, this is my fourth winter grow, first winter grow was to prove it couldn't be done here??? and I've seen plants just not maturing even at 10 wks when the norm is 8.
Plants grow differently, sometimes demonstrably at different times of the year. Less or more sunlight, lower or higher temperatures really effect the growth of these plants. GDP is much darker and more purple in winter/colder times of the year and in Jan/Feb some will not produce mature flowers. I've also watched plants, 2 GDP's but also 2 Cherry Wine flower and reveg as the daily sunlight continued to lengthen. These hemp plants are clones of one of those plants, a large 4' plant in a 1/2 gallon nursery pot. It's very cool to grow all year long?
