Hi,
Some people prefer white cloudy thricomes. This is the peak of the thc produced by the plant(psychoactive effect). From there, the thrico
Start to turn amber. the thc decreases And you’ll get A sedative effect.
Up to you now on your preferences.
Btw, i harvested some of my plants last week and they had red orange pistil and still white thricomes.
Happy harvest!!!!👊

Drying Techniques, Which One?...I have a question on drying, what are your opinions?
1)drying the whole plant fan leaves & all
2) drying the whole plant with only fan leaves removed
3) wet trim, cutting each branch off separately & then hang drying

Have I over-dried? Should I be worried?I cut my f. banana autos on 10/03. They dried in my tent with extraction and oscillating fan on for 13 days - Avg rH 55, Temp 16.5 . They didn't pass the 'snap test' but I guessed they were dry. Stored in jars with Boveda 62 overnight and today rH is 54-56. Is this a problem?Other. Harvest - Curing
