Just noticed you've hung the whole plant rather than trimming???? If thats the case definitely jar the parts that are snapping and leave the rest I'd say

as you said, if her stem snaps rather than bends she's ready to jar if she still bends give her a day or 2 more, you can always jar some and leave some to dry further if needed Happy growing D

Should I put harvest into jars early?Should I put my harvest into jars insted of hanging? I harvested 2 days ago and my humidity right now is between 60-70% with fan and dehumidifier. I wonder if the buds would be better in jars with 50% humidity packet. I'm afraid they will mold hanging in the house. Rain all wk.

First time grower - Partial Harvest Hello brothers & sisters. First time grower... I've inspected trics all over, and as expected, they are more mature in certain areas. Was thinking of partially harvesting? Is it as simple as chopping the mature buds and leaving the rest for another 1-2weeks? Thanks

To Freeze Dry or Not to Freeze Dry? That is the question...Someone recommended freeze drying my harvested nugs. I've done research on it to a degree. Have you tried freeze dry weed and does anyone recommend it for quality rugs to be smoked?

Odd green smell during drying Day 5 of dry and nugs are starting to crunch though stems dont crack yet. I've lost the dank, unless touched, and it smells of what i'm guessing is clorophyll How long does this last for or have I done something wrong? Temp 19°c on average +-2°c and RH is 55% +-1%. Thanks😎

Do most strains’ buds really swell and fill out in the last 2-3 weeks of flowering? And I read articles that were against topping auto’s even once because of the stress, but I know others do it. Better yield or nah? (For future reference)
