Day 15 She got a dose of Beefy Bud from Greenrush. Day 17 light defoliation to expose the tops. She seems to be real healthy. Im liking the bud sites forming. Big dense buds soon :D. Thanks for checking her out.
Day 19, Heavy defoliation of undergrowth and any fan leaves blocking nodes. Very well spaced and will be stacking nicely 8) Ill keep photos for next weeks update ! Shes growing fast, little stretch before stack. Last two days she got an inch closer to the light. Eager to see how much she actually does stretch under the conditions i gave her !
The other girl i planted from seed along side of this one showed a different structure completely in my opinion. She stretched like crazy in green house reached almost 4 feet tall fast, but she didnt survive. She got way to cold and lengthy looking. I felt bad so i cut her :( I hate doing it but i have no experience with green house and outdoors its awhole different ball game. In the future ill inform my self more and get the conditions proper for some green house grows.
@ApothecAries, yeah I hear ya man. No I was more asking about how long you normally cure for. I know that some crazy craft growers will cure for 4-6 months. I usually try to go for about three months then just leave it in long term storage. Yeah you’re definitely right that it changes over time. I still have a few jars from a 2021 grow. It’s pretty old now but still very smokable and still hits. The appearance isn’t so hot anymore but meh whatever it all looks the same when it’s been through a grinder bahaha. Once it’s dry I usually start picking at it every so often. A few grams here or there isn’t going to make a huge difference when there’s over 120 grams of it. Plus I’m not the guy who’s relying on that plant to be ready because I’m out of smoke. I know some people in that position and they don’t even give it enough time for the cure and they burn right through it because it’s their only source of weed.
@Papa_T, it could take up to 6 months to get a perfect cure. i notice when i store for long time in jars the profiles do change over time and around 6 months might start degrading. I like to cure for atleast 4 weeks before enjoying the smoke. i find the burn is good and the taste is potent and clean. It really all depends what you did during the hanging phase i assume.
@ApothecAries, ahhhh shit I must not have seen that reply a month ago.
How long do you usually cure for? I’m finding that a three month cure makes it really prime. My Purple Punch wasn’t smelling so great but man after three months it really came around and now it smells absolutely wonderful.
