Subject: 🍁 What to do with your trim, and how to keep your best plant

Hey Friend,

For a lot of you, October was harvest month: plants down, branches hanging, and a pile of trim left over.

Now, the harvest is in, but the best part isn't over: the first jars are ready to open, the trim is waiting to become hash, and new runs are going in under the lights. In this November issue we cover getting the most out of what you just grew, keeping the plant you'd hate to lose, and choosing what goes in next.

Don't throw out the trim

The buds get the attention, but most growers are still sitting on a bag of trim. Sugar leaf carries more resin than you'd think. Our updated guide covers what's worth keeping, whether it's worth smoking, how to sift it into dry sift hash, and how to decarb it into an infused oil for edibles. Fan leaves and stems get a use too.

Not ready to say goodbye: if you're about to harvest a photoperiod plant you love, you don't have to lose it. Leave some lower growth on, put it back under 18 hrs of light, and it can return to veg. Our re-veg guide walks through it step by step (it doesn't work with autoflowers).

Strain Spotlight

Chocolate Wafflez

L.A. Amnesia × Thin Mint GSC

Sativa

Chocolate Wafflez cannabis plant in flower, buds heavily coated in trichomes

Chocolate Wafflez crosses L.A. Amnesia with Thin Mint GSC: Amnesia for the hazy, pinene-led lift and the sativa structure, Thin Mint GSC for the resin and the dessert finish. The result is a 75% sativa that reaches 26% THC and finishes in 60–65 days, quick for a plant this sativa-leaning. Expect an energising, heady start that settles into smooth relaxation, and a flavour that opens herbal and hazy before dark chocolate, mint and blackberry come through on the exhale.

Best for: growers after high THC, heavy yields and resin-rich flower for making hash.

The Numbers

Type

75% Sativa / 25% Indica

THC

~26%

Flowering time

60–65 days

Indoor yield

up to 600 g/m²

Outdoor yield

up to 1000 g/plant

Height

tall, over 120 cm indoors untrained

Effect

energising, uplifting head rush that settles into smooth relaxation

Flavor

herbal haze, cookie sweetness, dark chocolate, mint and blackberry

Chocolate Wafflez grows tall and fast, past 120 cm if you let it, so keep veg short and train early with low-stress training or a SCROG net. In return you get an extra-heavy trichome coat that makes it a standout for hash, plus good mould resistance and up to 600 g/m² indoors. It rewards experienced growers rather than first-timers, and for them it's a sativa that finishes in nine weeks without giving up yield or resin.
