Ya your probably right, I don't think I'll have time for a proper cure either.:wall: But it will be smokable.:bigjoint:

Looking nice. I personally fell the cure is a bit over rated. Mine were dried and being smoked for top $ without any cure time in 3-5 days off the plants. You can notice the difference between my cured and un cured but you won't hear anyone complain about either. I did give them just water for the last week or so tho that might have helped some.

i feel the same way. no one around me grows, so my shit is by far and away the best they can get, but i only dish out to a few friends. they are more than willing to fork out the $'s for it. i did have a friend who got some about 4 day off the plant and love it. about a month later he smoked with me same stuff, that had been air tight since it was dry and didnt believe it was the same stuff. told me i was holding out on him. BETTER WITH AGE!!!

I figure the weed at the bottom of the jar will be cured. I will be getting rid of just a little of this first bacth. Just the money it saves me will be nice.:-P

I have been thinking about flushing myself. After the flushing problem with the first 2 (still only 2 with problem) I wonder if I need to start flushing that MG soil sooner to make sure I get out the nutes before they are done.:?::bigjoint:

Do you think it is OK to flush with tap water if I follow it up with clean water at the end?

I've been using tap water that has had a fish tank bubble in it for a few days.

How much water do you flush with?

I flushed mine in the bath tub with plain tap water. They say you want to use 3x the amount of water your container holds. Example i had 5gal buckets so I had to use the tub and aimed for 15gal of water but just like dude said give them just water for the last 10-15 days and you should be great. Use alot of water the first few days to get plenty of run off then just hit them with like a gallon a day til they are done.

Me and you are on the same page brother. If we lived by the med banks we might have to worry more about cure flushing and what not but shit what are you going to compare what we grow to around us. Your story with your friend is identical to mine. Right off the plant was getting coke prices and when he blazed with me yesterday it was even more amazing and slept his other friend. bongsmilie:sleep:

Yes they are. I think there is a mixture of stains though. They don't all have the same leaf shapes. Most of them are the same. Some of them are older, and from named strains. Just don't know witch ones.

Well thanks for coming back!! Much appriciated.:eyesmoke:

They are getting to be nice and fat. I'd say about 3 fingers wide, so 2.5"-3".I'm happy as hell!!:bigjoint:

The 1 of 3 that are @ 39 days now, looks alot different than the other 2. I don't now if you can tell from the pics or not but it's not as thick. The buds are not getting as fat as they long. I think it is more sativa than indica, and hoping it fattens up by the end.:peace:

Thanks for coming by slabhead!!

I have to thank my mom for that green thumb. Thanks MOM!!;-) We always had a garden, flowers and a house full of plants. Every once in a while we will catch a wiff of it upstairs. But not very often. We can open the windows now so it airs out. The only time it smells is when I open the door, then it seems to go thourgh the furnace ducts. A carbon filter is on the list of things to do. :peace:
