ok so heres the million dollar question, would you guys:

1. leave the plant alone for 2 weeks, set up some type of watering and lighting system and trust that no maintenance ppl or robbers will come into my place.
OR
2. Cut it down on Sunday and risk the buds being premature and sucking.

Dude just set her up in a sink with a box. Make it so the sink drips every minute or so some how... Hey were stoners! Where there’s a will there a way. You can rig a box over the sink to drown out the light and boom you’re good to go... DO some modification to the box bodi bing you come back two weeks you will have double what you do now!

hold on what are you using for lights what ever you got turn half off so the water you leave on the plant wont dry out to bad when you get home your plant will bud slower but you would get more then if you just let it dry out over the 2 weeks

Yo dude... harvest and then water cure (if you have time). You'll achieve 2 things, one- you'll have you're bud ready to smoke/hide as soon as possible, two- you'll flush most of the nutes out with the water cure.

If you don't have time to cure at all before you leave.... don't know where you can hide them so they cure while you're gone...

Get em down and cured so you can stash them. tell everyone that you threw them out cause they were to early and full of nutes.

You did it once, you can do it again!!!

Hey i would not suggest just cutting and water curing bro, i did that shit with 1 of my 4 girls as kinda an expieriment and it was all the same strain Burmese sativa and let me say i got some dank weed and then i have some brown wierd smelling stuff i am going to make cannabutter with its real harsh and it would have been good bud if i would have flushed for 2 weeks prior to chopping and water curing. And the yield is way less with water curing , ya water curing does give a nice clean, smooth smoke but you get way less as far as dry wieght, slow drying is and curing is def the way to go for sure, if you want me to take pics between the 2 different buds, i can. the one i did not flush is way darker!

yea lets see some pics. oh yea so I was stoned after some bowl hits but then i had THE WORST HEADACHE EVERRRRRRRRRR. could that be because i didnt dry it properly? ( i microwaved it) i hope its not cause the bud is just too premature cause I got legitmatly high for a while

yea dude, unfortunately smoking chlorophyll and the rest of the raw plant material (probably containing trace amounts of nutrients) causes bad headaches afterwards..
so drying and curing the buds properly before you smoke them is a must (also flushing the plant with water at least for a week before harvest).. cheers

Ok, here goes,as you can see from the pics the color difference i got a couple close ups of each and then with them together, the darker one is the burmese sativa i did not flush at all like fertilized them and then picked like the next day so i though water curing would get rid of everything like flushing does, well i dont think it worked, lol cuz its super harsh! Glad i only did it with 1 of my girls and not all 4 of them!

Anybody have any opinions on that unflushed bud being used to make cannabutter? Its still potent ass weed its just harsh do you think it will taste fine when i make the cannabutter? Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks!
