AGREED!!Amber shmamber. It's turning out according to researchers that cloudy/clear is now being seen as the new way to go. Amber is degradation of THC molecule and so clear is now cool once again. See High Times for the article. I can get you a link to it but you have to twist my arm. And buy me nice things. We're talking about front page news. Amber Alert...a fucking scam. Ill settle for whatever good food or anything. I'm PO. God Dang it.Yo are there any doctors in the house? PM me I gotta question.
Hell Yeah! In my own experience with my two strains I agree. I think people over think 90% of this shit its only growing a plant not nuclear fusion. You know what they say K.I.S.S!AGREED!!
i wait until i see 1 maybe 2 amber trichomes, then harvest. that way i know im maxed out on the cloudy ones. fuck 10% or 30% or 50%. i like a head high. i like a potent high. if i want couchlock, i just smoke more, eat more, and pass the fuck out.
i used to wait til 50% amber, 50% cloudy, but ive been really really pleased with the earlier harvesting. besides, as they dry, you will get a few more amber trichomes.
if in doubt, cut off a little nug from the bottom, stick it in a toaster oven at the lowest temp it goes for about 5 min, smoke it. if your high, then its time. let the rest of the plant dry out by hanging, add some cure time, and youll be high as shit when its ready.
If you heat and go above 200 degrees you degrade the trics and that is where THC is made. Come on people! It's not hard to look up the physics of pot. I'm fucken tired of people that grow arguing about what is better. Read the study's or better yet do the testing yourself. You wanna get high it's almost no amber. Plane and simple. Been that way fir years. Fuck my dad knew that 34 years ago.
Sorry if I sound harsh. I'm medicated and feel passionate about the movement we are facing. The more negative things we get (it gets you high) the harder we have to fight.
Warm setting is 160. That is so close. To if you add a tin foil sheet under it it's over 200.Nobody said to heat it over 200 degrees. Some toaster ovens have a warm setting that is much lower than that. Personally i haven't had to quick dry. Also you seem intelligent enough.... don't get stressed over half the info you read on the internet always assume its wrong. People usually learn better from the mistakes they make anyways.
please note, I am in complete agreement with you.
