Using a handheld moisture meter to determine proper final moisture content in buds
QuickBricksstarted grow question 2 years ago
Has anyone used a moisture meter such as a water damage type home hand held meter like from General
to measure the moisture content in the buds when drying/curing? If so, would you recommend using this as
a proper method? Cheers!

What is "General"?
I would say a moisture meter intended for wood or other solid surfaces will not work. Most of them work on electrical resistance so testing something like leaves or flower would be inaccurate.
To measure the moisture content I put them/it into a sealed, airtight container with a moisture meter. After 6 or more hours I read the humidity level. It is not an absolute reading of the pant's moisture content, since I'm reading the humidity of the air inside the container, but it provides an easy measurement.

Two buds instead of one on one spot? Why is this happening, or is it normal?Why is this happening? This is my first grow and one of the growing Buds looks different like all others. It looks like there are coming two buds out of it, instead of just one like on the others. Or is this normal? Sorry for being such a noob.
One picture for reference.

Estimating wet bud weight from dry bud weightThe harvest report for the diary asks for wet bud weight, which I didn't measure. (I think it'd be hard to provide that number if you didn't wet trim, right?) So, what's a good conversion: using dry trim weight to estimate wet trim weight?

What's wrong with herThis is an auto in its seventh week since seed. Why does it look like this all new growth is lime green and I know it's normal when sta4ing to flower but she looks sad and not herself. I have dimmed the light a bit as she has grown but even bottom tips are the same.
