Rest in Peace, Mom + High on Home Grown

I accidentally broke a branch off one of the Tangerine Dreams awhile back and hung it up in the bathroom to dry. My mother passed away this morning and when I got home it was a most nice, welcome, mindless activity to trim it. It was my first real trim job and I’ve got lots to learn, but I am smoking it and I am getting pretty darned high – and this was cut prematurely! I can hardly wait to see what my mature buds will to do me, and what they will taste like! I am waiting til the potted girls turn amber before harvesting. I’d say we have at least two weeks.

I ground up my freshly trimmed Tangerine Dream bud in the grinder and have smoked a couple of bowls of it:

 

It tastes good, though mild. It’s a hybrid with a 50/50 sativa/indica split, imo, and I’m pleased as punch at how potent it is! The Tangerine Dream at the dispensary smelled much skunkier and dank, and I don’t expect for a minute that my first crop of home grown would be as good as what is sold in a dispensary but I’m betting they will taste and smell more potently orange at harvest time in 2 weeks or so!

This was a nice perk to an emotional roller coaster ride of a day. My mom is gone from this planet but no longer suffering, and guess what I came home to? Blueberry Autoflower sprouting!  New Life! I had forgotten/given up on it while at the folks’ this week!
