Not completely 100% on that question buddy. since the first 2 had a almost minty taste but that's right around when I bought the Pineapple Rush FloraNectar and started using it on her. second grow of that strain was VERY FRUITY smoke. but like I said I can't be 100% because none of that got cured. just grown and smoked since it was my SECOND successful grow. I just put a few in germ today, since all 6 of my cocoa puff(3) and white 88 g13/hashplant(3) had tails and got "plugged". Took 6 cuts of the Blue Dream last night too... This is my FIRST time using plugs for cuts. I've failed too many times with coco due to stem rot. I was leaving water in the bottom of the tray...BIG NO NO! lol

Yeah, like said I think I am going to give the Floranectar "fruity" type a go. I grow a lot of "fruity" strains anyway, so it may work out good 4 me.. I just hate when your buds look & smell so flipping good, then all to harvest um and they have that damn "hay" smell & tatse!! I had one strain that no matter HOW long you cured it, it still smelt & tatsed like damn grass/hay!

OKAY OKAY. I am a noob when it come to curing but I know EXACTLY what you are talking about...... May be a dumb question with you having WAY MORE EXPERIENCE than I but. Have you tried the fridge? I have a mini fridge in my grow room for curing bud. for some reason it has worked better for me that jars alone. I Jar it up and put it in the fridge, opening every 12 hours for the first 3 days and once a day after that. usually after the first week I leave the jars open for a couple hours to let ANY moisture escape and then back to the fridge until it has that sick "Bag appeal" smell to it. I like my weed to smell WITHOUT having to bag it up.(breaking the trichs, by bagging it up, for smell just seems like a waste)

This is info I got from my old neighbor, He's a good buddy of mine and his way to describe how it worked is, "It'll make shit brick, taste like God's Vagina."


Again I have like ZERO experience next to you so i'm sure you have already heard this before. Anyone else who has heard this too let me know. I would kinda like the chemistry lesson on it ;) what does the cold do to the gasses to help preserve the terpenes?

My buddy freezes his shit, tastes like pine needles LOL but that stuff will get you high as hell.

He gave me a half of it a while back, I had to thaw it and finish curing it out to smoke the rest ;)

I knew this old dude in upstate New York who grew outdoors like 7-8 years ago. EVERY YEAR he would vacuum seal his bud to dry it.... He would trim and bag it all up and used a vacuum seal thingamajig and suck all the air out. He never fully explained it to me though. wasn't the best weed I've smoked but it wasn't CRAP.

yeah my friend does the same thing. Vacuum seals. He does it to store it, though for the life of me, I wouldn't do it, seems like it damages the weed. Once you unfreeze it, it gets all moist and then you have to go thru the trouble of drying it before smoking it and the longer it çures that way, the less potent it is :(

He's a dump truck driver so he goes through spells where he doesn't smoke at all because of that.

Haha! Lol. Well, even though I've had more grow time then you, that certainly deosnt mean an old dog can't learn "new" tricks.. haha... ;)
Don't ever let anyone tell you other wise.
Nope, never tried the fridge b4.. see.. :mrgreen:
I'm more of a mason jar man myself. Been thinking bout trying these humidor bags I got as samples. There suppose to keep a humidity of 69 to 70%. Maybe next harvest I will try the fridge & a few of these bags.. ;)

Yeah that's what I did ;)
I never buy anything for full price, ever. I'm a shopaholic LOL

the good thing about them, you can toss them in your jars, bags, whatever you use.

I use mason jars too. I just put them in the fridge. when you NORMALLY pop the top you release pressure correct? evap builds gasses up and need to be released. When you put them in the fridge it SUCKS the cap on. like when you buy a jar of pickles. it will literally pop when you pull the lid off. I usually have to use the sides of the lid the first few times or I cut my fingers on the new jars I got. :) and what I DO is after about 7-10 days I take the lids off and leave the jars out in a dark cool place(but not cold) for a couple hours. when I put the lids back on the buds feel dry to the touch and the jar is pretty much back to room temp with NO condensation on the inside. then I leave em alone for a week, pop the top again(usually at this point the lids are just normal same on as off equal pressure. that's when I start checking my stems for that perfect *SNAP*, crystals seem shinier than before. and just touching the buds fills the whole room with whatever scent they give off. most of mine were fruity and then the Sour Diesel #2 overpowered EVERYTHING! :)

All I ever read is bad/negative things about the fridge. but if you pay attention/know how to DRY you buds, it works well. too much moisture before jarring will cause problems. but you know that

I want to get some LEDs but shit, they are so expensive. I had to make a federal case to get hubby to let me buy the T5 stand I have now :(
maybe come next check I can start putting back for them ;)

I was just kidding. I don't have the wallet for LEDs at the moment and am not going to waste my money on EBAY cheapos or anything else CHEAP online. Which brand would you suggest?
