trim before drying?
jamjam887766
started grow question 6y ago
I just started drying. Should I have trimmed off the small fan leaves before hanging? Does it make a difference?

It’s all preference imo... it’s easier to leave them on and just pull them off once dried, rather than cutting each one off. I take the time and get the larger one’s off, but you’ll be fine either way!

I've read many reviews on both on forums, mostly prefer the "dry trim" due to many reasons. try searching for this term.

Brown paper bag drying
Hello! For those of you who dry their buds in a brown paper bag, how do you proceed? Right now buds are trimmed and put in a dark, dry closet. Should I check everyday? Wait a bit before I open? How long does it usually take for you to get everything dry?

How to dry the trim or should I just freeze it?
I like to wet trim, if I want to make canna butter should I dry the trim or just freeze it and use it later when I want? If I should dry it, how do you dry it?

In the dark before harvest?
Is it imperative to put them in the dark before harvesting? I've built myself a dry box that will keep them dark, cool, and the air circulating. I still have plants growing so I can't off the lights and I don't have anywhere else to set them.

Ready to chop- I want to be around to burp and cure- but no amber
I am ready to chop. My plants trichomes are mostly cloudy- so now it's just a waiting game. I need to chop soon- because I have a lot going on this summer. What happens if I do not wait for the amber to show? Big mistake?

Drying/curing
Is what I've done with lemon 2 alright? I've trimmed the whole plant and hung it that way to allow for a longer drying period and how do I tell it time for curing?

Harvest time estimate opinion please?
If the counting starts when the first set of leaves pop out then I'm at 8 weeks with today's pics. I've started plain water 4 days ago. How close does this look to chopping?

Dry enough?
Hello, I need details on what people look for or how to measure weed percentage. My references say to keep it 12% for vaping and err too much to prevent destroying the terps.Drying right now with basically the full plant hanging untrimmed. 2nd day...
