Crispy fried...

Good luck getting anything worth harvesting!
Sorry, but your leaves will be dead before the buds swell + something went very wrong (high heat/overwatering/or overfert.)
yes it did . I'm still a noob so lesson learned . gonna be more careful next time . using FF trio
I've harvested , dried and is being cured now . tastes great in my Magic Flight vaporizer. Joints are kinda harsh ... this plant had a lot of potential ..but I fucked it up. oh well Moving on..
DSC02476.jpg 2oz after drying for 5 days ( there was more but I ran out of room to hang )
:wall:Will curing for couple of weeks make it any better ? the buds were crispy like a mofo

Over dried then, you can cure and remove some harshness of the smoke in my experience

if its an 8 week strain (7 days times 8 weeks is 56 days) i let them go about 4-5 days into week nine while feeding them basically water. I let the plants yellow out as it robs the leaves for nutrients that I am no longer providing. this gets the chlorophyll out which gives plants that hay/grass smell. it also helps it burn down to a white ash. I have noticed that lettting 8 week strains go into the ninth week gives me more time to flush to get all the nutrients metabollised. it also seems to give the plants an extra window of time where they really seem to bulk up. I chopped my girls today because the colas were starting to develop little braided nipples on top, messing up the 'look'. I shopped so that would not continue and I am at day 61 in the ninth week.

chop when you have:
`receded/drying/orange/non-white hairs (pistils)
`majority cloudy or amber trichs
`yellowing leaves

That herijuana is done unless he likes smokin' yellow sugar leaves.
I see a few ambers, but mostly cloudy/clear.

It's hard to remove yellow leaves that are inside the bud + they taste horrible.
If you didn't know Trichomes will change color during your cure also!

Some clear will turn cloudy, some of the cloudy will turn amber, and some of the amber(@chop) will turn red or dark after 2 months in a jar.

I prefer more of an up high dominated by THC instead of CBN. I'll cut them today or tomorrow.

The leaves are yellowing a bit, and the smell and stickyness are very strong. I clipped a small bud for a quick-dry sample. I'll be trying it later today, if it's dry by then. And with this low humidity, it may very well dry in just a few hours.

The problem with asking people of a strain is done, is that the answer is subjective. If you like a more stone, you have to hope the plant gets more stoney when more tricks turn amber. Really you only know what characteristics the plant will show when tricks turn different colors is by growing, cloning and taking it different length. Or just staggering your harvest. My buddy just harvested his purple diesel, receding red hairs basically withered away, dense buds, and a decent amount of amber trichs. The plant to the right his space queen, is spitting white hairs, left and right, but trichs are amber and cloudy. So pistils are no indicator, and trichs aren't congruent with how the rest of the plant should look. The truth is, there is no right answer; but there are wrong ones. Under developed trich head sizes are wrong. Swollen heads are the minimum indicator. DJ Short recommends all clear trichs if I remember right. Different breeders say different things. This isn't a one size fits all. The answers are subjective to what fits your wants and needs, and how the plants ccharacteristics are displayed.

Otherwise the best people can tell you is a generic answer you could have looked up yourself. Unless of course you have a clone, and the grew the same cut as well personally, and can tell you what to do.
