Highland Huancoensis and Jave in the back

Ran cielo on the highland and was pleasantly surprised with a yield of 2.6
Not a crazy high number but definitely workable. This was the first clone I acquired and as such it holds a special place in my heart. Also it was the first one to go into the new beds ceremonially. The land owner, my partner and I all did it together and offered thanks and prayers.
I've also noticed that this particular clone is easy to process. The skin just peels right off in a big sheet
Short enough spines to be easy to handle too. Plus it's gorgeous and fat

West coast middle ish. 8b sayeth the Internet
Definitely the bridgesoids are some winners. Pure bridge is a bit finicky in the cold we get during the winter but the ones here have made it so far

Cielo from the highland Huancoensis. Fumerate.
Came out fluffy when I usually get needles. Did a few others outta the same batch of EA and this was the only one. Gonna soak it in some fresh neutral EA and see if I lose any weight. Tasted slightly sour in way that's different. Usual amount of fumeric acid was used and well within the capacity of the solvent to hold.
So it's a curious thing
I'll update
Here's the combined output from three separate runs that sat for 24 slow diffuse and then mag stirred for 10-15 minutes with a gear bar(which is a new thing for me the gear, absolutely a game changer. Thing works perfect from lower rpms and to top speed, while the bars need to be run higher to get going and spin out sooner. Get a gear) on around 500 rpm.
These aren't the biggest crystals I've gotten but it's morphologically closer ti what I usually get following the same method I always use

So an update on the Huancoensis.
Soaked the fluffy crystals in fresh EA. Ph was tested and shown to be neutral after three hours.
Total recovery of 927mg. Down from 971mg.
So loss of 44mg
Feeling confident it's fumerate
