@Newbie_uk,Open it and see if it feels moist again. It will rehydrate from the moisture in the stalk and inner most parts of the buds. it comes back out. If it does feel moist again then leave it open for half a day then close it again. Then later check if its moistens up again. If its just a tiny bit moist like you can just break the stock with a snap then jar it for good until smoked. But thats how I like it a lot like it way more moist. I dont like the "green" smell in my jars because I know it will only cause it to decay in potency if you store it like that.
@Newbie_uk, Well that's good sometimes you have to do what you have to do. I know it was hard to do but you made the right choice then. Yes what ever is left will mature much faster now. Compare it to what your drying now. BTW if its dry put it in jars dont let it go to a crisp.
@Newbie_uk,Oh no you chopped all the tops off? I can't see any signs of mold mildew or rot. WHat does it look like now.
Did they all have rot? I was just going to tell you to let the branches flop down on the sides to let more light and air inside but I guess they'll get plenty now!
I couldn't chop mine. I was planning on doing it last night but I couldn't. I don't have any rot but the powdery mildew is starting on some of the fan leaves, on the chopped plants, and I pluck every sign of it. There's none on my buds but if i see one bud leaf with it I chop that whole bud before it ruins it.
I think you went a little drastic if you chopped all your tops but you will get some smoke. It will;be a real frontal active buzz, not the couch potato buzz.
Leave whatever is left it will mature faster now, that is, if you left something to work with.
Do you know how to cure it?
@Korfer,Thanks man, unfortunately, I lost 2 nice ones a few weeks ago. This one has loads of resin so she is more resistant to the problems the other 2 had. I'm pretty sure she'll go full term without any issues. Just hoping Jack Frost stays on vacation a little longer
@Newbie_uk, Yea man you'll see a lot of changes in the next 2 weeks. They need light. I think that's your biggest factor that would be limiting if anything. Can you put them on your house roof or would everyone see it?
@Newbie_uk,Not yet but the courts have been told to drop most cases so the cops only use it to hassle you and take your shit and cash. They popped a dispensary the other day and raided their homes too and took about 200 kilos and $300g's. They're real fuckers. They all fucking smoke too. I bet they found more like 500 kg's and $600g's but it didn't make it back to the station.
@Tazard1,Yea I think that's part of the story. They also need temp differential between night and day the more the better to a point, about 12-15f. My days haven't been above 70 for about 2 weeks with major swings. I I think they have lost their purple genetics in one generation.
@Ageddd, Yes purple is good. If its in their genes it means they are reacting to the changes in weather and other signals of time running out to reproduce. Just like the trees in the fall except they have done reproducing long ago and they have shut off the supply of things like amino acids, sugars and carbohydrates to their extremities. While our plants do the same, they don't shut off the supply to the buds because they are still drastically trying to get pollen and make seeds. The hairs would normally grab the pollen and the seed would start. The resin helps attract insects and pollen clings to it so they keep producing it.
