How to tell when buds are dry and it's time to start curing?
Dillsnillsstarted grow question 4 years ago
When drying how do you tell when it's time to start curing, ik from what I've read says the stem needs to snap, the outside of some of the buds feel dry but the stem isn't snapping it bends like it is almost going to snap. Is it safe to start curing? Been drying for 4-5 day's.

Ideal drying time is about 10 days, but I wouldn't go less than a week. Your stems will snap as long as your RH isn't out of control. Patience grasshopper.

They are still very wet in the center of your buds

Can I be blessed by an O.G. ???Would it be out of line to ask one of you O.G.s to give a general review of how my diary is going so far? I know I have a lot to learn and been listening to as many experienced people as I can. Would be so valuable if one of you with experience could take a look at what I've doneWeek 7

Stretch time period for Indica dominant hybridsHow long does the stretch last with Indica dominant hybrids? I understand this is dependent on genetics. I am just looking for a ball park figure. It's been so long since my last real grow I have lost the feel. If I remember correctly it is usually about 2 weeks.Week 9
