This week really felt like autumn as the temperatures dropped significantly and it started to rain heavily. I assume that the cold is one of the reasons for the purple leaves. The trichomes are still transparent, so I guess they still need some time. Next week will be full of sun again and I hope they can finish soon!
Also, I dried a test bud in just 4 days, with a little help of the oven and my girlfriend tested it with her friends. Turns out it was a rough smoke and the overall experience was a little disappointing. I told them to wait another 2 months before they try my plants again so they still have time to ripen, dry properly and cure for some time. I hope this will elevate the experience.
