Cannabis and Cayenne

in Canna-Curate12 hours ago

Hello Everyone,

The Crack Mack cannabis plant is doing her thing and is now in the flush stage. (No longer receiving nutrient feed.)

I also noticed today that some of the cayenne peppers started ripening up. The cayenne pepper plant is growing right next to the Crack Mack.

Let's have a look.

It's really hard to wait until January third for harvest. I'm definitely going to harvest some about a week before that.

Harvest time Harvey knows I'm up to something but he's not quite sure what it is... He's still learning the basics of how things work around here...

I may have exaggerated just a little bit... It really wasn't that bad.

Ok playtime is over let's check out the Crack Mack.

These buds are big and thick now, with good density.

I'm not expecting the trichome coverage to become greater beyond this point. What I am expecting is the trichomes will continue on with the maturation process that has already started. These trichomes are big and milky now, and over the next few weeks some will start to turn an amber color. By the seventy day mark there should be close to fifty percent coverage of amber trichomes with milky trichomes.

Although I have always been a proponent to having a greater coverage of milky trichomes over amber trichomes, I think there may be exception with certain Sativa dominant varieties. The psychoactive effects of the Crack Mack are high, but something feels like it's missing when harvested earlier, and I suspect it is the effects that will be made present with a higher level of trichome degradation.

With the feeding schedule done, there's nothing left to do other than just to ensure she's watered every day..

And maybe snack on a few peppers...

That will do it for today's update.

Would you eat these peppers raw like I do?

I'd love to know in the comment section!

Thank you for stopping by!

Have a good day! -@futuremind

That bud looks humongous. How spicy are those peppers? Are you going to see through time if you eat a whole one?

That kitty looks chill

Thank you @litguru , there are some really big buds on this plant. It's getting harder to wait for harvest lol.

The cayenne peppers on this plant are comparable to a jalapenos with heat intensity. They tend to vary in heat depending on the size of the pepper, smaller ones not as hot usually. Most people could probably handle these, I've had muuuuuch hotter.

Harvey is definitely a pretty chill little cat, (he's about a year old still growing.) he loves his life here.

They don't sound too bad then. I once attended a Mexican family barbecue and it was all kinds of fires in their sauces. Harvey is great name for a cat!

Nah they're not.. I like the extreme hot peppers too though. I have some that I am planning to grow here eventually.

Harvey seems to suit him well! I adopted him right before my last harvest, and the name harvest time Harvey came to me immediately :)

Perfect name with a great backstory.

Extreme hot peppers sound adventurous. heh
