Have to be patient now. It's make or break time. You might review this thread on drying and curing.
https://www.rollitup.org/harvesting-curing/514841-perfect-cure-every-time.html

Make sure you have everything ready to go. Drying and curing is the most important part of the entire process, least I think so.
As always, you post some really nice stuff Pros! Thank you!

I think I am ready! My closet is now humidity controlled. I have plenty of jars and I have two hygrometers that will each fit right inside the jars. I had read that article you posted the link to a few times now... Along with several others. And I kind of had chance to practice. I have been working on finishing the cure on one of her buds already. It is curing faster since there is only one bud in the jar, but I got to "get my hands dirty" a little... See the process in action.

Those look really nice!!! I noticed several twist-ties on pic 4... They don't look like they are tying anything up. I am just curious about why they are still there? : )
That's what I do to my plants while they are vegging. Sorta like mainline. It helps produce those longer cola's with very few "popcorn" nugs. I do that just so all the focus goes into the production of the mains.

Here's the Grape God & Pure Kush I have going that I did my little thing with. :mrgreen: It also aids in keeping the mains all nice and seperated, just so the lower buds can get light aswell.

Which strain is this bro :??:
Blueberry Yum Yum (Indica Pheno)

Sativa is darker purple. and the other indica pheno is just green so far.. don't see any signs of it changing so I guess this is all I get. purple blueberry yum yum lol

PLUS I hit both the purple ones with GDP pollen and one with Blue Dream pollen..


Gonna need to see if I can get a bunch more to run a pheno hunt with all I got going next time around...

I hear that. I believe if I dropped the temps I would get them (Blueberry Yum's) to purple up for me aswell. I just hate going in to piss and freazing my ass off! Lol

Purple is accelerated by phospho lock-out, in cold climate that is essentially what is happening.

Never hurts to play it safe. Hell, I keep all my stuff sealed up either in humidty packs(bags) or in masons in my 300 ib safe! I took and screwed/bollted that bitch down to the floor joists!! It isn't going NO where! Haha.. ;)
Laugh, thanks, more like a belligerent, scotch drinking philander, but I never listen to my wife's opinion ;-)

Shot this of my easy available stash.


Rest is in long-term storage, hint: it's in between the walls in sealed containers with hydro packs. (behind that vent in pic) Out of sight!

Haha.. ;) Yeah, I like running those phenos that turn without having to lockout (P). Such as the BBY & Purple Voodoo I've ran here recently. I would've thought the Purple Trainwreck would've got a hint of purple, but as of today she hasn't .. :( Damn, I can just her the nagging now when I sink the ac into the window! Lol..
That's a good enough reason as any, Dank. Cracked me up!

i have a 20 degree temp drop at night. so from like 80 to 60. it's not COLD but it's cold enough.
only 2 out of 3 of the BBYY are turning purple. It's genetic as much as it is nutrient related.

I've grown bud that was purple from the beginning. calyx grew full purple.

;) Haha.. Yeah, I have a 357 mag for people like that.. ;) Gotta make sure all this hard work isn't all done for nothing.. ;) Know what I mean :??:
Yeah, it is hard work and worth every penny a gram, ya know? What we do everyday in our gardens is nothing less than amazing.

It is cold enough and yes genetics are a big factor, however rapid or pervasive purpling occurs during periods of accelerated growth, cold swings, and phosphor deficiency. For instance my moms will purp cause of to little p in my veg food and I will give them some bloom nutes and they green up. I never grew straight purps but at the end the bubba likes to......with a little help.

Alright, I have no pictures of plants, but I did upgrade my bike today with three new carbon fiber bottle cages and seat mount. One on the frame holds my tool kit, tube, co2 pump, bud if necessary!
