Yeah 5 days should be fine depending on your temp and humidity. In my room I can dry buds in three days to smoke and still come out pretty well. My main drying room has a humidifier and dries for a good 7-10 days.Yeah I got the buds hanging up right now drying. I have no plans on quick dry or microwave zapping haha figured give it about 4 to 5 days and it should be dry enough to smoke
i agreeas long as your plant is making new white hairs she isnt ready. she will stop making them and swell and then they willl turn darker in color. that is when i would give her 24 hrs dark and chop her with as little light as possible let her dry slow.From what I can see from the pictures, I would give it at least another week.
I think this picture of this Black Domina x Bubblegum is a good example of a plant that is pretty much has finished at it will get. You can see the calaxys really swollen up, and the hairs looking like they are going back into the calaxys, turn orange/red/brown.
Notice the bud almost looks like it burst out from the leaves, and the hairs are almost all turned color. I consider this a finish flower. Each plant looks different, but this is a good example of how it swells and turns color at the end of harvest when it says I want to be chopped I'm tapped out.
Lookin damn good Buckwheat! damn good!!! keep up the good work, you've come a long way
Agree..I haven't seen much of a difference in light and dark periods, even while drying and curing.
Until I see scientific evidence, and then try it myself multiple times to confirm, I won't believe any of it.
I have dried buds in my bed room and in a cold closest at exact same conditions with no difference. I have chop in the morning and at night, I normally stagger my chopping throughout a time period and have no issues. Leaving half a plant chopped, ect.
I believe in seeing and people able to eyeball the plant finishing because it makes a distinct change, that you eventually learn to judge your plants on eyeballing compared to scoping. I'm glad you agree, but the whole dark period stuff I'm iffy on.
Looking good bro.. almost there...View attachment 3014300 View attachment 3014303 View attachment 3014306 sorry for the previous SHITTY PICS
