Looks like maybe slightly more resinous. It's good that you're doing this experiment though, because when you do a search to try to find out if it actually works or not you can't get a straight answer. All the threads that come up in Google are people asking others if it works, not showing us if...

Nope, same processes, enzymatic. The heat simply speeds up the enzymes, beyond a certain temperature it kills them off. There are no "bad enzymes" in there, it's just the same natural enzymes that are always there. At room temperature it takes about two weeks to brown, compared to a few days...

Well I can tell you that cured weed makes better quality extract than uncured weed, meaning green weed like everybody in America and Europe smokes. It's less harsh and more potent. You can't really cure weed without heat though, takes too long and would probably mold from the high humidity...

Yeah but wasn't it a lot smoother than green weed? Thise days were when weed was at its best, in my opinion, though probably lower potency because it was pure sativa.

Yup, it's green alright, nicely aged though.

Curing and aging are two different things. The mason jar thing is actually aging rather than curing. The curing process requires humidity of at least 70%, from most references I read. Does the photo on this page not look like what people are doing with the mason jars...

Here, I'll show you that the mason jar thing is aging rather than curing. I'll make thread on it too for others to see.

Once plant material is below about 70% RH it's too dry to cure. What people are doing with the jarring is called "aging", completely different thing. You can read about it in regard to tobacco. Aging does improve it, it's just not the same as curing, people are using the wrong terminology...

Looks like it's been flowering for 5-6 weeks, if that helps.

Quite a fat stalk on that one. Could use some bottom lighting though, LEDs pointing upward.

What, you squished the stem so it's flat? Odd thing to do but who knows, at least it's something new.

Maybe I picked the wrong strain from them then. Might have some good ones, I don't know. I may not have ripened it long enough too, only gave it I think 11 weeks, maybe only 10, can't recall exactly. I wasn't ripening anything long enough in those days. I since found that 16 weeks is a lot better.

I tried their OG Kush, sucked pretty bad actually. Nothing outstanding about it whatsoever. They seem pretty seed milly to me. Maybe some other strains are better. Actually the only seeds I got over the last several years that produced acceptable quality was from Paradise Seeds, an old Dutch...

You can harvest whenever you choose really, at least 8 weeks of flowering. Just you'll get lower yield and less potency than if you let them go full term, which I've found to be right around 16 weeks. The buds don't fill out and calyxes completely expand before that, maybe 15 weeks if you're in...

It's especially unwise to vape during a COVID epidemic, since it impairs the macrophages. Fat did get into the macrophages, however it got there. I just theorized that it dissolved it out of lung tissue, because where else would it come from? Here's a quote from one page about lung damage...

Another 8 weeks and it'll be ripe. Trich gazing is for people who want an excuse to harvest unripe weed. No chance at all that it's ripe at 8 weeks.

You can also use acetone, just don't use any plastic things with it because it dissolves some plastics, like polystyrene. Faster drying than alcohol too, though maybe more smelly. It's just the plastic dissolving and probably lower purity that makes it a second choice to alcohol, but in a pinch...

Just don't use PG or VG, or vitamin E for that matter, they all screw up your lungs. The macrophages get all clogged up with fat from your lungs, because the juice dissolves it, being an alcohol. It's just a real bad idea. I wouldn't even use terps either. Turpentine is pure pinene, trust me it...

I bought GoG's Blue Dream thinking it would be vaguely similar to real Blue Dream, boy was I wrong. Granted I only bought I think 5 seeds but I didn't get one usable pheno. One was total hemp, fluffy useless air buds with no resin. The others had sort of normal buds but still pretty fluffy and...

You can't tell that soon. Those could go either way, unless you chopped it. Those are what they call indeterminate preflowers.
