You think? I have no idea - the plant seemed fine, and I didnt notice it until I opened it up, so I don’t really know. I’ll have to keep a closer eye, and maybe break the big buds up a little more before drying, just to check.

Thanks!

Damn, yeah - we have some various allergies and sensitivities to molds ans mildews, so we didnt wanna risk it and threw it out right away. I also thought of a tincture or something - maybe alcohol would kill the shit tgat we’re worried about? Dunno. Thanks tho, I’ll have to look into that (even tho I hope this doesn’t happen again, it seems like it’d be useful to know)

Yeah, still working on getting everything dialed in and figuring out how to make my space work - I’ll have to get some kind of tote or box or small tent or sonething. i know my set up wasn’t ideal. Its not a sealed environment, and I didnt have as much airflow as i probably should have. Thanks for the tips and what your setup (that you know works) is like!

It was towars the upper edn of 50% humidity , and I had air moving around the room, but not specifically for this purpose ans I think with the level of humidity I should have had a fan or dehu going. I think it might work well when the weather is actually more wintery than it is now, but until then I have to be more diligent

I removed the fan leaves, and even did most of a wet trim. I think I didn’t have as much air circulation in the part of the basement this was hung in as i did the other spot. It was just one main stem with 2 separate and smaller branches. Nothing fancy over here until I can make one that comes out right from start to finish

I guess because I was trying that “hang the whole branch to dry” method, with the same arrangement I had with the larfy harvest before it. I needed to increase airflow, I think? I dunno, but I think I’ll stick with taking everything off the strm for now

Right?

Nah, thankfullyr

Sadly, no. It all looked great on the outside, but everything had this inside. Most of it wasn’t visible until I broke the buds open, but once I noticed it, I just went cutting through each one. It was too much to be worth risking, and after thinking on it all day we decided to call it a lesson

It was a sad lesson, anyways

I just hope I learned the right lessons 😅

Prolly need to break the buds up, lower the humidity, have more airflow … the usual mold mitigation stuff (that I thought I was doing right)

Thanks - i was thinking it might be a cal-mag thing, but my other thought was maybe it’s just fall colors. It’s cool to get a second opinion - something more than “Yeah, that’s a cannabis leaf” (tbf, it’s my hobby not theirs)

Too soon to cut nutes, i take it?

Yeah, I agree on the naming thing - anyone can claim their shit is White Widow or Gorrila Glue or Grandaddy Purple Squid Brains and sell it at a premium. (Ok, something like WW you might be able to tell, but I think my point stands)

Thanks for the assist in reading the name sticker, tho. I didn’t even see anything like it in the list on north Atlantic seed company’s site, which made it more confusing for me.

I think about 4 weeks now. It had been outside from mid-May til mid-Sept (I had some contractors that would be all over the yard, so moved it into a tent, directly to a 12/12 schedule - I guess I didn’t check the light schedule outside before that tho)

The drying and curing process take that much weight off, huh? Makes sense, I suppose, but still a little disheartening :-P

Thank you! The pics are helpful. I’ve started seeing some ambering, but probably mostly on the sugar leaves - looking at all the trichs instead of just the ones on the buds themselves. And since more of the hairs are turning orangey instead of white, I’m getting excited.

I appreciate the info, and the pics. It’s hard for me to compare my pics vs internet pics when I’m not really sure what I’m looking for. “Somewhere around 4 weeks left” is very helpful! Thanks!

Thanks! What kind is it? Haha - I’m not quite sure how to read the label. Is it a Blue Dream × Purple Caper, from the seed bank Purple Caper? (Bought from North Atlantic Seed Company)

Thanks for taking the time to reply!

She’s getting 12/12 light rn. Just squoze (squeezed?) a couple of the buds (oh so gently, and from the bottoms of the sugar leaves) - I’d probably be happy getting these. They’re feeling pretty dense, compared to some buds I’ve seen in my life. Do they lose some of that density while drying? Like, water weight?

Thanks for the reply!

Thanks - that is helpful to hear.

Word. Thanks.

Yeah, after seeing some more pics of how the pollen sacs open, I could see the stuff up top looking like that. I thought it was just how these calyxes started out, but prolly not based on the other thingies. Thanks

Aight, thank you. Knew I could get some answers here!
