Really.. these were 100 for 5 . Where do you order from? Def open to going anywhere. These were from north atlantic seed company.
Your bud looks ok, but it has small trichrome heads and less than ideal trichrome density. Cost of seeds is relative. Some of my best plants were from free or cheap seeds. I order from the clone conservatory. $200 shipped to my door in three days, gets me 4 well rooted female clones of whatever strain I want. From cali to Jersey in 3 days.
 
Yep. I agree. Curing and excessive burping is an excuse for not drying to near perfection IMO. I will say, I do believe a week or 2 in jars can potentially equalize any moisture pockets and smells throughout the product, but I’ve yet to see it actually IMPROVE the product as it’s consumed.
Could i be over drying by essentially opening the jars to much? Usually whem we jar if i dont wait for snap i can get them in the jar and theybwill be 60-62% i assumed you had to burp for atleast 15-30 mins even at the humidity. If thwy are at 60-62% in jar after 24 hours of jarring should i just do short few sec burps? Ive never had bud in jar hit 65% after 24 hours.

At 60-62% you should barely be burping. You can always dry more if bud is still wet but once you over dry the cure stops.

I've never cloned before..........this will be a season of experiments! Do these clones come already rooted? ready to plant when they arrive? Is it similar to buying veg plants from the garden centers and then just planting out?

Yes clones come fully rooted and ready to transplant. They say to transplant as soon as you get them. They start growing right away and get you a bigger plant faster than from seed.

Does the difficulty to grow between strains even matter with clones? I've been growin for 6yrs but never clones. The closet I got was trying to re-plant a plant I accidentally uprooted.....but it looked like it died anyway! lot of info on the strains from that clone conservatory site you mentioned,,looks like they sale seeds as well!

Clones can usually take higher levels of nutrients than plants from seed. I run 2.7-3 ec on clones for almost the entire cycle. Just make sure you are feeding them enough and you’ll be fine. My media ec gets past 10 ec sometimes, so don’t be afraid to feed.

Ive grown several different strand from deisel , bubble gum, something called thumb printz gorilla zkittles all the same thing. What strains do you reccomend i try out for better results?

Pretty much anything from clone conservatory. They are all commercially run strains. You can chat with them and tell them what you like and they can make recommendations. Any skittlez or runtz should have strong pronounced terps. I got Obama runtz, hella jelly, circus animals and oreoz blizzard on deck to flower.
 
STRAINLY.COM US breeders and beyond! Some cash in the mail, bitcoin,paypal,venmo..you can also report and give feedback to the breeders or sell your own.....germination rates..killer smoke...whatever!
I just tried that domain it wouldnt come up
