I tried to push out the harvesting of this seasons marijuana plants as long as possible. I felt that I harvested too early last year, but what do I really know. The forecast predicts freezing temps this week so I made the decision to just harvest.

Instead of cutting the plants out of the pot and then chopping them into branches before trimming, I did all the pulling and trimming while the plant was still in the soil. It may be a good method, for small sized pants. I could have walked away at any time during harvest (if I had to) and I didn’t need to prepare or clean up anything. It also saved space in the hanger as I could just hang up the two whole plants, rather than a bunch of smaller branches.
