My glorious harvest...Ruined...

[JonnyBlunt88]

My Romulus girls had such great potential...

They were cut down yesterday at only day 41, with at least two weeks left. Not even a chance to flush them. Damn you annual apartment inspections!

I have heard of ways to maximize the quality of early harvests like putting the colas under light to extract pigment to salvage taste...

Does anyone have experience in this...I've never had to harvest this early.....

sorry to hear that, couldnt take it to a friends for a day?

Its funny you ask...

I debated whether asking to store them
and involving someone else, or just
chopping them.

Most of the buds were fairly dense, so I
chopped them...They are in my bud
dryer right now, and smelling sweet...

 

[aknight3]

it doesnt look like the absolute worst thing that could happen, at least youll have some heady high buds to smoke while you get geared up for next round sorry to hear about your premature but still lookin good harvest

 

[aknight3]

haha sry for double post but im lazy its funny i look on here and alot of harvests look like that when its picked on this website, at least you realized that what you did was premature, alot of people anymore would be like wow look at this dank weed when if they just would waited 2 weeks longer, tisk tisk, i see it here on riu than anywhere else...shame

sorry to hear about your premature cultivation, but still it dosnt look like a total waste at all. like aknight said some people jump the gun and harvest early anyways.

ill bet with some good drying and curing your buds will turn out better than most beasters quality weed. i bet its gonna smell like hay actually, but it will get you baked as hell

 

[JonnyBlunt88]

Thanks for the reassurance guys...

I doubt it will taste like hay...It's a solid
Romulon cross that was stabalized.

O well...

They just need to legalize this
plant already.

How not to quote?

Sorry for what happened, but enjoy your harvest!

 

[strangerdude562]

that sucks man, u think water cure will help with a better taste?

 

[Minnestoner]

Annual apartment inspections, screw that.

 

[JonnyBlunt88]

I've never liked the idea of getting my harvests wet, but
I'll look into that. Never done it myself.

havent had an inspection here in years...new management.

 

[scooby snacks]

sorry to hear you had to harvest early but it still looks like some damn good smoke to me.
anyways if you didn't get a chance to flush you should do the water cure method to get all the nasty chemicals out!!!!
trust me your going to want to do it, hears a link

Thanks for the link..I'll try that with some of
my less treated buds.

[grownavy1091]

I was in the process of buying a supercloset, but I need alot of help, it's my first grow, any suggestions with the machine?

 

[erkelsgoo420]

Did they even go near the room u were in? They usually look in the kitchen and bathroom to make sure all appliances are good and that's it. Sucks to hear though.
