Buds look amazing. Where can i get some good info on water curing process?

@Chuckie, Hi ! https://denverdave23.wordpress.com/2012/12/30/water-curing/ The only thing I disagree with the autor is the advantage of the use of running water, because tap water is not good for cannabis, no matter where. The salts and other molecules present on tap water will do an undesired process: sugars and salts from the buds will pass to the water because the water doesn't have them but in exchange, a lot of molecules present in the water (and not in the buds) will "contaminate" your batch. Also, fluorine and chlorine will damage some other non-water-soluble molecules and this will decrease the taste and potency of the buds. All the time you should be as close as it can be to reverse osmosis water. Cheers.

OMG! This month was crazy and it had so many harvests to review. I can't believe the rate at which this site is growing. It's almost growing as fast and with quality as @TaNg's plants, LOL. Congratulations to @KonopCh with your technicolored Crystal METH buds for the 1st place win. Those are truly amazing! Great job, @nicogm with your water curing and your trichomes covered ladies! Way to grow it @Korfer & @JieGrow, that should be some really good smoke. And @JUNGLE_B4RNS, you did it. Those buds look delicious and it was interesting to see the bud structure that happened to your plant. It's time to enjoy those cookies! @Tripaholic88 you are still killing it even with a strain that isn't even available yet! I love those videos, keep up the good work bro. I actually changed my vote today, after @organically messaged me and let me know some details about the missing weeks of the diaries. Hey, you can't blame someone for taking vacations in the Summertime, right. Finally, I have to give it up to @XxxAuto for providing the most beautiful cannabis plants that I've ever seen. Your diaries are straight up weed porn, and I think you'll be super successful with any strain but especially that Mexican Airlines & Girl Scout Cookies from Fast Buds. WOW! July is over and done with and I can't wait to see what diaries August has to offer! @GrowDiaries is killing it, and thanks to the team for making this such a great place to share the knowledge of growing medicine.

What is the machine you are using for the water of your bubble hash?

@ayecaps, It's the Resinator machine, from Pure Factory.

Keep going ! Growing autos on outdoor is very challenging.

seems to me you have a bad leaves : buds ratio.. i believe if she was left 2 more weeks, buds would develop more.. correct me if I'm wrong.. @DabCrab

@WhiteWidow, With girl scout cookies you're right, I could have waited a few more weeks and have more mature buds. The thing is i wanted no body-stoned effect on this strain so i've harvested when no trichomes were amber, and a few more weeks would have added an unwanted effect on this strain since some of the THC had begun to degrade into CBN. With northern express, I couldn't wait any longer. I harvested when almost all trichomes were amber so a few more weeks would have closed the harvest window, ruining my work. Very nice observation 😃

Northern Express final weight after water curing and drying: 91.5 g Girl Scout Cookies final weight after water curing and drying: 149,8 g Both are top quality buds, without any impurities or unwanted molecules as they are all gone thanks to the water curing. The smoke is the sweetest and tastiest ever. It’s true that water curing sacrifices a lot of the harvest’s quantity. But the quality it achieves is, in my experience, far above the level of air drying - air curing processes. It is totally worth it.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 superb! The ash is just insanely white! You pass the water true the hash net after? Cheers

@CANNASIM, Thanks bro ! We pass the water through the nets but found nothing, as it should be as we kept the water above 16º C all the time, so no trichomes would drop.

@autopassion, I have tried it, it's a very nice strain.

@nicogm, if you are looking for a quality/quantity northern lights auto you wont go far wrong with royalqueenseeds, it is 100%indica too much for me i like 70i/30s range but its quality all the same.

@autopassion, thanks for your kind words, mate ! I connected the extractor to the MaxLight cooltube of Garden HighPro and the other side of the duct is connected to a carbon filter. It reduces a lot of heat from the light, you should try it.

love your diary already, detailed and very informative, how did you hook up the extractor to the light, id love to reduce the heat a few degrees to up the power to 600w

Nice buds man ! Congrats

Great work bro ! Congrats

I like this strain, it's very resistant . Congrats !
