the buds should not turn brown
maybe you mean the hairs ? ... and they start turning brown when the plant is still growing ..

thanks exactly what i needed to know. been searching for a post to confirm that its time for my to bud for sure couple others give a couple more days under the light . nowhere nere the same yield as u but it'll do its good trainwreck but grew it outdoor halfway through winter then pulled it under a flouresant indoor costed me less than 20$ will have im thinkin little over half oz first grow. good free dro for me

I have not tried it yet but if done right you can get a second grow out of it. I know a friend how did it.

its only dead if you uproot it,well most of the time the trick is to take off buds and leave a few not all of them and then send into 18/6 or 24 hours and force into veg again also giving supple amounts of nitrogen help alo't to get good fresh growth back.

I owe my life to this tutorial

Really helpful, loved the pictures!

Good looking buds!

It's better if you grow a whole new plant or a clone of the original plant because it will stress the plant if forced back into vegetative growth again like that.

I don't know for sure, as I have never actually tried it, but it's what I've heard

It can be stressed but if you know whats going on,it can be done easily without to much stress involved

very pretty trees man

after there air dryed out on the white line do i have to put them into jars or can i just smoke it if its dry enough......will the bud even taste good once its dryed out on he white line or would i have to cure it.....i trimmed my leafs before and dryed out my bud on a line but the bud still smelled grassy and weird....but when i first cut it down it has a strung chronic smell it was nice but as soon as i trimmed it and set it up for drying it smelled really grassy and it lost all that chronic smell even after i dryed it out it still had that grassy smell to it .....why is this??
