Welp it's the best time of the grow! This one dried quicker than I would have liked since I trimmed so aggressively due to the spidermites.
I typically do a whole plant slow dry (3-5 days) before manicuring and getting the sugar trim. Then I put the trimmed buds in paper bags for another 3-5 days before starting the curing process.
This plant was dried in 2 days and bagged for 2-3 days. The saving grace will be the Boveda 62 paks that I use in the jars. That helps the bud stay in the perfect humidity range to facilitate curing. This will really bring out the smell and taste of this righteous strain in about 2-3 weeks.
I could've pruned this plant better, as there was alot of fluff. Rather than spend hours meticulously trimming the fluff, I just threw it in with the sugar trim from the buds. I'll use all of that for some killer QWISO. I already ran the trichrome covered fan leaves thru a quick wash and it's yummy! One of the pics will be of that batch.
I probably have at least a zip of fluff/sugar trim to use now, if not one and a half. That's the most I've ever had so far. I fresh froze about 30g of it, and let the rest dry out like usual. I might use the dried sugar trim for making kief...or just make some more QWISO with it. I'll use the fresh frozen stuff in some runs for "e-Cannabis" and some hash oil pills.
She smokes a bit harsh right now, but that's to be expected. It's a wonderful sativa-dominant high. A great day-time motivator. I love a good sativa.
Her smell hasn't really developed yet, but it will in a couple of weeks. You can see how shiny the buds are, it's a sticky, snowy mess!
Final dried weight: 120.3g! (A new personal best!)
That's not counting the fluff/sugar trim either. The QWISO I just made is from the trichrome rich fan leaves...I can't wait to see how much I get off the fluff and sugar trim!
Here's the final bud pr0n for this run:
