Agreed. There's no harm in harvesting a small bud on a lower branch for quality control testing. Place the harvested bud on a saucer on top of your water heater, a warm windowsill, or on top of your grow box, for a couple of hours. The smoke will be a tad harsh and taste like freshly mowed grass. But it is an excellent method to gauge the progress of your grow if you are near harvest.Don't deprive yourself ,treat yourself to at least a small nug or two,y not? KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!
yea tough to tell. do you see any "grape" looking pods?
