Went to check ripeness, and .. wait .. could it be .. ? Oh fuck, dang ol’ mites starting to reproduce again. So I immediately chopped, and did a quick peroxide wash and rinse, then hung branches up to drip dry. Buds smell like someone spilled some fuel on a bag of oranges. I learned a hard lesson why you never bring an outside plant into your space without strict quarantine, inspections, and IPM.
edit: I’m sure the smoke is going to be great, it was ripe at day 68F. Normally I don’t wash, but I wanted to make sure its free of bugs and detritus.
