These guys continue to amaze me. They continue to grow and have developed a powerful smell The buds continue to sprout and grow, and as you can see by the pictures one has started to get orange hairs. No issues with bugs, mold, over-watering, etc...I realize now, my first grow in the summer was doomed from the start, this is so much easier when heat isn't an issue. I continue to give it half the recommended nute dosage and I'm only doing it once a week. I water about every 2 days and notice they definitely like the water more when they are flowering. I plan on starting to flush them in a about a week. I see others growers take theirs up to 11 week abut I have feeling the first plant will be done around day 60 and the other one about a week after that I hope everyone is having a successful grow, and thanks for taking the time to look at mine and check out my journal

Hey there @BlckbrGrls once you have finished dying, the best curing method in my opinion is buying "Boveda 62%" packs (linked at the end) and placing them in jars with your bud. These guys do ALL the work for you keeping the humidity at exactly 62% for the entire curing process its really that simple. Which btw to answer your question lasts anywhere from 2 weeks to 4 months depending on your preference. The longer they cure the more they smell and better they taste! ( Heres that link! https://www.amazon.com/Boveda-Humidity-Humidors-Humidifier-Dehumidifier/dp/B00TU03HU6 ) Happy curing ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Once completely dry, place in jars. Place jars away from heat and light. Over course of 2-4 weeks jars are "burped" or opened and let out gasses to allow fresh air inside. Little pockets of the expelled gas sometimes stuck inside of buds, under curled leaves, etc that's why movement helps. Tip: the More jars the better. You can consolidate after cured. During curing I fill no more than 50% of volume of jars. ๐Ÿ‘

Hello ! 15 days is the minimum for a curing and you can keep your weed as long as you want : I will smoke some february and june buds on new year eve The key is to open your jar daily during 15 min each day during at least a month ( some says 15 days , I prefer a month) then after that month open the jar every weeks or 2 weeks during 5 to 15 min. And do the best manicure as possble , I noticed that my well manicured buds last longer than my buds with some leaves on. If you can add a Boveda humidity pack 58% or 62% in the jab then it's better to keep a constant humidity level. I hope it will help you ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

@BeefWellingtons, I agree, I've heard the same kind of thing. I went ahead and ordered a scope and have been taking some looks.

hey BBG, this is what i do : everything is important during the cure, starting with the drying, you want to time your last watering based on your humidity, more humid the longer you want to leave it before the chop, the drier it is the less you want to leave it before the chop. Just before the chop, try to get 12/14 hours of dark, that's because photosynthesis chemicals taste terrible, this will help reduce these to a minimum. Once it's chopped you want to hang the whole plant upside down. As it's drying you should check up on it, see if it's ready once you pluck buds and they snap off the stem audibly. Then it's all about the manicure and cure. I prefer using miron glass jars because they let in the right kind of light and that does help. Basically the first week or two you want to "inspect your buds" daily by taking out all the bud and giving it an eyeball then back into the jars. After about a week or so of inspection you can add boveda packs which also really help with the curing. I use 62% , but I'll try the 58% stuff next time. What is curing ? basically you're trying to get all the garbage chemicals out of the weed so it tastes nice. Curing is over once the bud reaches around 50% humidity, or when you take the boveda packs out basically. So inspect for two weeks, then after that you only really need to inspect once a week. a full curing "program" can take 6 weeks , two weeks daily inspection, 4 weeks weekly inspection. but you can let it go on longer if you want ! Hope this helps ! ๐Ÿš€

Hello Bro, good look for your plant, it seems the tween of mine. Very strong grow, especially if it is already 20 cm tall and you're not using nutrients for now. ciao !

Only way to be sure, 'Nuke it from orbit." Or get a scope and check out tricomes. I've heard 5-10% amber and 90% or so milky. But you should read up on this cause stoners say different amounts of amber give different highs. I honestly don't believe the hype but there is a lot of articles on it and I suggest that you check them out just to be sure. Who knows, maybe more amber tricomes do equal a more couch lock feeling, lol. Update: I want to reiterate that that I do believe there is a happy place of amber and milky tricomes at around 5-10/95-90 amber vs milky, but not necessarily the other part of what if you have a little more of one, you will have a different high when smoking or ingesting.

@BlckbryGrls, This is the best way to judge when plants are ripe and ready to harvest. A handheld scope is relatively inexpensive and will come in very handy ๐Ÿ‘Œ It's nice to get up close and personal with those trichomes ๐Ÿ‘ All the best โœŒ๏ธ Mark..
