That's a good question, no I haven't?
Have you ever found when doing comparisons with phenos that you can notice/find qualities in plants weeks after cutting that you initially didn't notice, maybe it's just me?
If you have good genetics you shouldn't have to search through ten seeds to find a keeper. The problem today is that so many of the so called breeders are just chucking pollen. Strainly and instagram are full of chuckers. Which is why I just shake my head reading about people waiting for another "Drop" of someones pollen chuck. If you stick with established breeders that have been around awhile that are actually breeding you won't have that problem. Those jumping on the hype train for some strain pumped up on social media very often end up with nothing more than a simple pollen chuck. The seed industry has been compromised by some pretty unsavory and dishonest characters.
Do not know if I got you right... I do not see too big difference between 2week old bud and 2 months old. Curing... maybe I just did it wrong or whatever. My goal is always dry it as slow as my conditions allow and than chatch it around 60% or less. Than air tight. Thats when the smell get heavy. If you fuck up jaring in right moment or forget to burp you can end up with shit inside this and that. So I basicaly burp when I take for joint. It can be considered as curing but I do not take care too much. If there is no quality or you harvest early you can cure and cure... the effect of the high of 2 weeks old bud can be a litlle bit racy, but its potency you just feel the same. I have noticed that its all about trichrome “stickiness”, you just want glue on your fingers after touching the bud. If it is quality, this stickiness is there in the day of cut, 2 weeks later as well as 2 months later when the buds can be considered over dried. This is what you asked or?
No sorry what I meant was for me to find the best pheno it can take a fair bit of time.Do not know if I got you right... I do not see too big difference between 2week old bud and 2 months old.

I live in Europe. I do not know any breeders or people making good clones of weed I actually smoked and liked. Exept those on zamnesia just big seedbanks. And those are all shit! Only way for me was to take the clones before flower starts, flower them, dry and smoke, clones in the meantime give to friend to flower and than take rest of one of his plants and reveg because did wrong decision when saw the plant threw nanners in week 11. Now I have the plant I know she two times murdered all around but have to accept she is nannering. And grew some amount of seeds of different breeders last few years. It is just not what I consider good weed for me, when I smoke the plant for the first time, I knew I have found it. Every other different weed is just not get me so high as this one. Also someone can consider the weed great I can say it is shit doing to me nothing after half of my life smoking. Depends on person.
I have noticed small change in smell after some time in jar, but never noticed that one weed started to get me higher that the one which got me the highest of all of them after chop. This?
I think your primarily looking for effects/potency whereas I'm primarily after flavour, the effects are a secondary consideration.
The thing with that is the other half have grown as you/I would expect?
you live in europe.and dont know where good breeders are? i order most of my seeds from breeders in europe.
No they'd done at least one grow, I've got a load of them in all sizes and they got mixed up so I didn't know which was which so I picked the one with whitest filament.
I'm fine with phono hunting through some chucked hybrids when the breeder has elite cuts of strains that I'll never be able to get my hands on, let alone breed out myself due to time and space constraints. You can find some truly amazing phenos that become legendary cuts of their own. The trade off is inconsistency. If you exclusively grow for seed then it's obviously a stupid move, but one unique mother is all it takes to make the whole annoying process worthwhile.
It's odd to me when someone purely focuses on thc. All pot is potent these days. Two hits of pretty much anything properly grown will get me high. Then I'll take a few more for good measure.
I wish I could get a choice from the seeds I've done over the last 5 years, it's not been a lot but there's a couple that were spectacular, at the time I was to busy with work and other stuff for a perpetual grow, now I think it's the only way, perpetual + a known mother.
chalk up to experience lol.
Yes that's a fair comment I think but you can find the occasional phenos that can put your head up your arse, I like that but it's still secondary to the flavour, ideally I want both but it'll take some time.
I grow exclusively from seed. Regular seeds so I can have both males and females to make more seeds. I only take clones to give away or for reversing to make feminized seeds that I also give away. I typically grow landrace seeds and I'm more focused on preserving the genetics than anything else. Too many of the original landrace genetics that everything else came from are disappearing or being contaminated by introduced hybrids.
