Pink Kush harvest and seed collection: Trimmed, Dried, Weighed, and Sampled

in WeedCash Network7 months ago (edited)
After a total of fourteen weeks of indoor growth and bloom, the Pink Kush cannabis plant was harvested, trimmed, dried, weighed, and sampled.

Pink Kush harvested

This Pink Kush cannabis plant had six weeks of vegetative growth and eight weeks of bloom time before it was harvested. The indica strain genetics showed with the broad leaves and bushy plant structure, and the evening temperatures for low enough for it's namesake purple and pink tones to appear.

Last week the stalks were harvested and hung upside down to dry. The large fan leaves were trimmed the first day, then the bud leaf tips were trimmed within the first few days of the seven days of drying. The buds are covered with shimmering THC trichomes, they with eventually dry to a crisp amber color, there are ample bright orange pistils too.

Crossbred seeds

Pink Kush lower branch bud was pollinated with Apricot Kush pollen, the branch was marked with tape just before harvest.

More than seventy crossbred seeds collected, I'll be curious to see if the plants from these seeds have the similar big big growth as it's Pink Kush mother plant, it's Apricot Kush father had a decent size of growth too.

Final Trim

After five days the buds were still a little squishy, after six days they still had a slight vegetative scent, after seven days the buds were dried to a crisp and only had that sweet grape scent, they were ready to be trimmed off the stalks.

Harvest Weight

Trimmed up and ready for weighing, the tray on the scale was zeroed out and loaded with buds.

The first tray of buds weighed 101.05 grams, the second trayed weighed 89.29 grams, for a total of 194.34 grams, or 6.95 ounces. Almost seven ounces, my largest single plant harvest this season, Pink Kush has some bountiful big bud genetics.

The weighed up buds go into the air tight jars for curing and storage. After a week in the jars the bud moisture content will equalize for the smoothest smoke, that's the curing.

There's a sweet, extra grape and slight spice scent to these sticky Pink Kush buds, so grape that it has some cherry tones.

The Flavors

Sweet extra grape and cherry spice flavor to the Pink Kush smoke, slightly mouth tingling, powdered sugar-like sweetness aftertaste, tasty buds.

The Feels

Relaxing buds, heavy eyelids with this laid back indica strain. A calm cheerfulness, smooth muscle relaxation, I'll save these buds for relaxing days or evenings.

A good haul with this Pink Kush grow, I know to reach for these seeds for a big harvest. I'm looking forward to growing it's Pink Kush x Apricot Kush crossbred seeds, they should be good sized cannabis plants with tasty buds too.

That's a great harvest for 1 plant! Nice work as always bro

Thanks man, it's fun to see a plant fill in like that. Eventually I'll give an indoor plant an extra long veg time to see if it's worth the gains :)

An informative post thanks to you. Such a nice plant . It looks like hard silky type texture.its a unique one I haven't seen it before.

Thanks, when I've picked up Pink Kush buds at the dispensary they've had the same silky / dark oily kinda look to them, solid indica buzz.

Now the winter is saved, absolutely fantastic what a harvest!

Thanks, a good haul, these buds will last a while :)

I think Raw rolling paper is very popular
That's what we use here too. It is $0.25
How about there?

I think they're $2.00 Canadian dollars per pack, but I buy them bulk online so they're a little cheaper :)

Nice harvest, the plant looked fantastic before you chopped it down.

Always love pink kush that is for sure

Thanks, the Pink Kush grew up quick, unique buds for sure :)

I just wish that I can see your lovely setup of these plants.
