Bad taste buds, flushed/cured not enough
Unfortunately I had to harvest after 1 week of intense flush and I made a first test today after 1 week of drying and 2 weeks of glass without open the jars..the smell is not so bad but still very stinging while the taste is really bad, can I do something now or is it too late?:/

How do you harvest in hydro (drip system with a tank) when some are late ?
Half of the plants are late (chlorosis, iron toxicity, nitrogen overfd) on a scrog net. As individual flush is impossible, I guess I have no choice than having different batches of ambered trichomes ! And I thought about different strains next time, sweet dreams...

Edible out of fresh harvest
Hi, I'm not very much into smoking weed, more like eating edibles. In cause of financial and space problems, my plan is to make edibles stait out of the harvest or after the drying. My question is: Does the curing/fermentation effects the potency or effect of the weed?

Perplexing signs from recently jarred buds.
I jarred airy buds three days ago and haven't been able to get the humidity above 55%. When I vaped a bud today, almost no vapor came out and it barely burned. (did get high tho). One signal says dry. The other says wet. I think? What do you think is happening? What do I do?

Help!! Do I harvest?
About 50% milky, 40% clear trichome heads. But in some minor spots, they are all dark brown/amber. Its supposed to be a Forbidden Cherry Automatic (Dutch Passion), but did not turn purple. I want it to be a bit more relaxing, indica-like. Week 11, outdoor balcony grow.

Eddies or Bubble?
Less of a question, more of a decider. Should I make more bubble hash with the trim of this run or make some edibles instead? (butter) hmmmm... hard decisions. Flowers for reference. She does look like a hash-maker. But I want to make eddies. Help me decide!

Space in jar effect cure?
Will the amount of space in my jar effect humidity, and thus cure? I trimmed by recently dried flower and placed the trimmed buds into flip lid jars. One jar would not fit all the flower and leave 25% space, so split it up into 2 jars, but now both are only 1/2 full and 50%rh.
