for sure riddle! i have to get my workshop set up before the snow hits, then run electricity to it, so i can start growing. once i get every thing put up and get some strains going. itd be awesome to get a true expert and a pro to come look at my garden.

and the chamber you built is amazing. i cant believe you have invented a chamber to dry and cure bud in less than a week. i think i need to build one haha. oh the stuff i am wanting to build hmmm.

I had some serious doubts about this 'magical chamber' that RM3 was building. I figured, especially with the big buds from the outdoor, this thing is gonna mold, especially leaving the leaves on. I figured this would be the first big FAIL of the riddleme madman's theories.

I was sorely, and happily mistaken.

He took some branches on Monday night. The were from the back of the plant and lower, but still good sized and dense. I watched the updates and then got the message I needed to come and confirm the initial results.

I figured it would be like, fresh dried buds, taste green and burn shitty. But it was quite the opposite.

I had been telling RM3 that I used to dry my plants out before harvest so they dry faster and the patients get them faster, I was always behind playing catch. I noticed I could never get a cure outta them, too damn dry.

Now that I have caught up and don't have to rush, I've been keeping them wet, not drowing (yet), but wet. And the cure is so much better. The buds have that nice 'spongy' texture and when you put them in a space case it makes these nice little squares, kinda like tobacco. It's perfect.

Well I expected, in less than 3 days time, for it to be like the dried out plants. Hard brittle, and probably still wet in the middle.

No way, it was nice and spongy, just like I love it. It wasn't harsh, but instead very smooth. It had a nice degree of curing, in 3 days, with no drying. I was really pretty amazed. Also, they were about 10% amber trichomes when he took them and under my scope they had 'ripened' up to close to 50%.

Now on the plants I have been chopping, I truly expect they will hang for over a week to get the moisture out of some of the buds and then they will probably have to burped or left open for a good amount of time.

I honestly can't wait to see how these buds that RM3 has will be like in say 10 days.

Cutting that dry time and simultaneously getting the cure is invaluable to me. With all the tight restrictions in Colorado's medical laws, you simply can't afford to sit on it. This magical cabinet will allow you to not only cut the time but more importantly provide your patients with a much, much better product, which is what it's really all about.

RM3 continues his trek to the perfect smoke and this piece is another important part to the puzzle he is quickly putting together.

Ok I know I have neglected regular garden updates and I will work on getting one together once this final test is finished, I have to devote time to the chamber but am not neglecting my garden, made it rain yesterday and watered the veg room this morning, garden is doing nicely will get pics at end of week 4 flowering which will be tuesday

Back to the chamber,,,,,The single bud that was put in thursday is done and in a jar, it finished in just 2 days and required a different set of tweaks. it has the same look and feel as the first set of buds, I have not tasted it yet :)

Yesterday I went over to RMH's and trimmed a few buds as he has started his outdoor harvest. I grabbed a whole bunch of lower popcorn budded branches off the plants he had cut so I could do a test run in the chamber with lots of green :) you will see that on 3 of the shelfs and mixed in with it are 2 agent orange buds that we cut 3 weeks early just to see what happens :) On the top shelf is my patients plant which is a GDP (very nice purples) So far the tweaks and adjustments have been way different but I have been able to dial into the sweet spot. we will see what happens?

The trek to that perfect smoke that RMH mentioned has been a mission for me, I know it is possible because I used to buy these buds (years ago) that were the best smoke I ever had, it went for $100 a gram and no one complained, I have posted here about it before. That guy would not share his secrets so I have been on a mission to figure it out and I am damn close. The one thing that his bud did was stay sticky, it never dried out and the buds from the first goddess run are now there, I left them set out for 3 hours yesterday and they did not get dry or crispy, they just stayed spongy and sticky and the high, oh my god, this shit is good, my 4th hit last night actually buckled my knees and I went to bed, it put me down GOOD :) just one or 2 hits is a very good stone. I gave an oz back to RMH yesterday so we'll see what his opinion is here soon?

There is no doubt in my mind that I have figured out the old growers secret way of curing and there is no doubt that this process makes the smoke better, I will keep on tweaking till I get the process perfected :hump:

here are the pics

This last few months for me knowing you riddle has been like cannabis university. i spent a few years learning online and reading and watching video's. but iv gotta say from making it rain to harvesting and curing i have to agree. i think you've cracked it and iv been sitting here with my notepad jotting it all down for the day i do my "balls to the wall" grow. u should defo write a book as i dont think all the other "how to" books out there offer what you can to the growing community :weed: i really cant wait to see the results of ur grow, its a real pity i wont be able to sample the finished product because i think its going to be one of a kind. thanks for sharing your information on producing the worlds best pot :D

Thank you my friend, I would love to have everyone here taste my buds :) but alas that is not possible. I understand black market/commercial growers hoarding their secrets but when it comes to medical I believe the info should be shared, the patients that need the medicine deserve the very best and seeing the crap that the dispensaries have been hocking sickens me, so I have shared my research and test experiments to help other patients get the very best in the end that is what should be important :)

It'll be interesting to see how long it takes to cure bud that was started fermenting prior to harvest.
Props Riddle

i wont be able to taste your buds, but i will be able to replicate them :D. and id rather be able to replicate them on a large scale instead of just being able to try them, so i suppose i still win :bigjoint: .

and medicinal or not, every grower should aspire for perfection. i think the problem with your dispensaries is the fact that everybody thinks what theyre growing is the best, and a lot of people think theyre getting "high grade" when really we would call it crap. thats why i love people like you who educate :D
