We ate all the weed macarons (they were VERY good) so I’m making more

This time they’ll be coffee-flavored with the leftover infused ganache as filling

Here it is, the thing that I’ve been promising to make ever since I planted my seeds in January: matcha macarons with Northern Lights chocolate ganache.

I didn’t want to make them until my macaron game was strong enough lol

All of this low-grade trim (fan leaves, roots, stems, branches, and a couple of really gnarly small buds) is going to be infused in cocoa butter and turned into pain rubs and probably some other topical stuff. No part of the plant is going to waste.

Harvested the last of the Northern Lights today. Here’s the final haul (of buds—I’m not weighing the trim as part of my final yield. Depending on the grade I’m infusing it for either edibles or topicals).

I definitely learned a lot, including the list of reasons why I got so many tiny buds, so next grow I’ll definitely have more impressive buds to show off. Still, I’m very happy with how well I did on my first try!

And the Critical CBD is harvested! It ripened more evenly than the Northern lights (likely because it’s taller), so I chopped the whole thing down instead of just the top half. I’m still so glad I didn’t try to do 100% of the harvest on a single day lol

As before, I separated it into buds, high-grade trim for edibles, and low-grade trim for topicals.

Harvest Part 1 is complete. I did about the top half of my Northern Lights, and I’ll probably do the top half of my Critical CBD tomorrow (or whenever idk). I’m giving the bottom half of the plants some more time to ripen.

So far my wife has given the A+ Disabled Wife Seal Of Approval to just the little bit of scissor hash she smoked earlier, and I have a nice little batch of cannabutter going from the trim.

All signs point to the girls being ready to harvest! Well, most signs—I keep peering at the trichomes but I can’t tell if they’re white or cloudy. Fan leaves are starting to get yellow and shrively, pistils are orange/amber, and the buds are fat.

I might do a two-stage harvest (upper and lower, to let the lower ones ripen a little more). Going to wet trim to avoid mold.

This is going to be so exciting :D
