Harvest Time: A Tutorial

[davemoney]

this is my first grow, i have two more weeks until chop and the buds smell really good. It's a flavor in my whole room. mine is white widow, i will attach some pictures. maybe is the strain, i don't know why your buds don't smell good. how is it when you smoke it?

ps: can you post a picture of your buds?

beautiful plant btw!

question.... can i start saving my fan leaves / leaves that are falling off during the last week before harvest? or do i only use the ones i have left over after cutting...? tryin to make some hash the leaves are very crystally btw, thats why im asking but they are yellow....

i find that leaves left on the bud after it is dry will cause a grassy smell.

i only use leaves and trim that is covered in trichs for my hash. no fan leaves.

Mine is almost 4 wees cured in a mason jar but for the last 3 days i forgot to open and stir, but is well dried out, its lost any smell of weed lol, any ideas whats happened, also when i trimmed the bud leafs i trimmed to pistil ends, and there was some parts of leaves left in the bud, is that why mine smelled of grass for a while then, should i have trimmed closer?

Sorry to ask alot fdd, but i got my next plant ready to chop and i want to do it better this time.

soooooooo many variables.

mine does this. then i break a bud open and the whole room reeks.

some strains don't have much in the way of smell.
