I harvested a half week early IMO but with the issues early on I just wanted to chop and dry and use this as a learning experience.
The buds are a bit airy but I'm unsure if it's just the strain. I'll pop another bean and see how that goes.
Good luck! For this being your first grow, you're well equipped. I too am doing my first grow in a makeshift heated basement. Any suggestions on retaining heat?
