I try to cure them for as long as possible,
I usually end up smoking and sharing what I grow so I've never put anything into a long term cure.
what kind of time frame are you talking?
yeah these girls are starting to wreak! when the light fires up in the morning I can smell them outside of the room.
the next set of pics I'd like to put them all in like a line-up beside each other
and stick something beside them for perspective, maybe a pop can, or a yard stick or something.

This is the type of cure / dry im going to do with my blueberry to get maximum scent and taste. Chop down, cut down into nugs and lay them down in a closet with a fan. Rotate them every 3 hours. Do this for 2 days. Next I am going to put them into brown paper bags and close the bags for 3 hours at a time then stir them up and open them for an hour. Do this for 2-3 days. With stems still bendy, put them into jars, and burp them daily. This cure will make it so you have beautifully smelling, tasting buds that will be extremely smooth to smoke. Cure for a minimum of 2 weeks. Overall maybe 3 weeks of drying and curing, and you will have some good ass bud that will be nice and sticky.

Oh yeah thats what I do, only I like to sit them on newspapers and I've got really oversized sealable glass jars to cure.

oh man I had a weak moment yesterday,
I have three of the smallest plants directly under the bulb, and I've wanted to remove them to get full light on the surrounding plants.
but when I pulled them upstairs I chopped a nug and looked at it under the microscope, not even a third of the trichs on the tops are cloudy yet!
So I sucked it up and stuck them back under the light.
its really getting hard to resist cutting them because so many hairs are red.
but I know better. as long as I have that magnifier I'll be able to control my stoner urges.
I bet some of you know how hard it is when you're hurting for a toke.
just a thought to talk aboot.

hey sambo,
I'm really not sure at the moment they were bagseed that I weeded out the males and cloned the shit out of the mothers.
it kind of pisses me off but I've been thinking of starting a thread before I chop
in which I'll post all the pics I can of hairs, bud formation, trichs. etc
And I'll try to get lots of other members with blueberrys to comment and put up their ladies for comparison.
then we can all find out together.

that would be a good idea m8 im 6wks into 12/12 so not long left then il post pics of the harvest, i got pics of em vegging n one i done outdoor in the uk,

i would be very interested in seeing and comparing different blueberry grow.

imo the DP aint all that, had some go slighty hermi on me in the past n from what ive read thats a comman prob with DP blueberry, also i dont like the bud formation on the DP.

but yeah m8 i fink a show ya blueberry yield thread is a good idea not a dick sizeing contest like others but too compare and try figer out the best blueberry genetics out there available? im not that old 27 but from what i read the blueberry of today aint a touch on what it was in the past its a very old strain i fink blueberry.

Yeah, I'd like to find some extreme variation in the blueberry, like see how many different strains have been crossbred, and which ones can harvest early,
or very late.
I'm two days short of six weeks, so thats kind of neat how many weeks are you planning to keep them going?
whats the recommended harvest time for DP?

DP say 8-10wk i always take it to 8 with nutes then flush for a wk n chop it could definatly go longer tho but for various reasons i gotta chop at 9wk.

Follow that for the harvest method with the most yield, taste, and smell.

I know how it is clipping buds, I got so impatient last grow, I figured one of my plants with nute burn wasnt going to make it far, so I started chopping the branches off. Slowly, it started to disappear. Here she is after my crab pincers stopped pincing. https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/302797-extreme-lollipopping-pics.html#post3787986

Too bad after drying and curing it was my strongest. >< hahahhahaa oh well, it's what I get for being a stoner.

thats an awesome post by Zeus,
I actually noticed the seed bracts are swelling more these past few days but they are still producing some hairs,
also theres a lot of fan leaves left to consume during the flush.
I've been looking at the difference in the plants I have and it seems the chunky plants have trichs mostly on the buds and nearly none on the leaves.
but the lanky plants have LOTS of trichs on the buds, leaves and they are emerging on the stems!
I find that weird because they are all from the same mother, but the taller ones are older by two or three weeks of vegging.
the next crop I'll have the same clones but they will have been vegging for even longer, so maybe they'll be stickier than this crop.

Alrighty I've got some pictures that'll almost qualify as bud porn.
just put the camera on the tripod, zoomed it in with the digital zoom, put the magnifier at arms length away from the camera and just kept moving it back and forth,
zooming in, zooming out, well I think you know what I mean,

Thanks!
I think next saturday I'll start flushing them and hopefully I can keep them going till the 10th of next month.
There should be a shitload of hairs and cloudy trichs by then.

I don't think I've gone to week ten before but I've seen blueberries past weeks twelve and thirteen.
and they were some heavy hitters!
if I can get close to the quality of those plants, I'll be laughing

If you're looking for the cloudy trichs for the stone, my guess is they are mostly all cloudy now, or within a week. If you let those plants go 2-3 weeks, you will get a majority of amber. Now for me, that's way better cause the taste, high, yield, and smell is way more extreme. But it's all about what the grower wants in the end. I'm only saying this because it looks like 50% of your hairs are brown, and that's either happening cause you put them through a ton of stress, or they are ripening.

Oh hey, also I wanted to just let you know something. I have been doing some reading up on nutrients, and how most of the marijuana specific nutrient companies are full of shit. But I came across this line of nutrients, and a lot of people swear by them. They are cheap, and very good for marijuana growing, check them out. http://www.jacksclassic.com/dynamic_duo.html Do some reading up, after I did, I ordered them yesterday.

Yeah I've noticed a lot of people gripe about specializing in marijuana nutes,
it seems they want you to beleive that its worth their "research" when they just add a few dollars to their price.
I've been looking around for cheap nutes and stuff, this product looks VERY powerful and really cheap so thanks for the tip.
I'd most likely order the Blossom booster for the phosphate, but other than that I have good vegging food, I think
I'd also like to start looking around for products with super phosphates, the only downfall being how expensive it is to buy.
but I'd be making my money back in dense super nugs.
