Exactly. In mid to late flower by rubbing the stem I get a better idea of the true smell the plant will bring. I shoot for smell and taste when I pick a keeper. To me its just as important as potency. Bag appeal is a huge priority to me.

from what i've seen on other SCH grows, smell is not there and neither is bag appeal.. but apparently it'll blow ur mind.. LOL we'll see.. i picked off 2 of the smallest buds that had the most red hairs and quite a bit of trichs and im doing a slow dry on them to see where she is at.. unforunately, after i cut em, i realized they were also the areas that had the most green leaves! LOL.. ooh well.. she'll be fine.. ive resisted all this time to cut a sample.. i finally caved in.. i hear that it'll be shit and wont do much but being so close to harvest and the color they have to em along with the trichs makes me think differently.. we'll see.. i imagine a very metallic high if that makes sense.. almost immature and up in the head.. we'll see in a few days..

EARLY SMOKE REPORT!

ok.. so this is an early smoke report on the buds i picked off a few days ago. I had them sitting in my grow box up top where there is indirect airflow and its kinda warm as its the exhaust area. 3 days of being there and stems snapped in half and bud looked wonderful! got about 2 grams off the 2 small buds.. didn't smell much atll but once I started to cut it up, a very fruity/skunky smell was emitted and was very surprising and it doesn't smell like that before being dried. i smoked 1 bowl out of my bong and the taste was already there.. i blew it out and it was a wonderful fruity flavor.. took a little while to hit or really should I say.. it took me a little while to realize it.. definitely felt it in my head.. in my ears.. i rolled up a J with the rest and hit that up.. smoke was smooth but the fruity flavor was gone.. it burned excellent and even... probably a lil too fast?? well i'm about 15 min in after the J and feeling GREAT! eyes are low, head is high, ears are bright, things have slowed down, some visual light distortion.. white looks TOO BRIGHT... lookin at a white truck outside and across the street and can't focus on it cause its too bright.. lets see how long this lasts.. and this stuff is supposed to get better?? LOL..

68 Days From Seed.. She was watered yesterday using 32oz of 6.5 ph'd tap water and molasses. Fan leaves are falling off daily. Leaves are ugly as ever but buds continue to show signs of new growth, more trichrome production and pistils turning red.. ;) i'm estimating the 2 back corner buds will give me about 5 grams each.. the main cola should net about 8 to 10 grams when she's done.. thats already 20 grams and i know i still have about 5 more buds that will be 2 grams each so my 1oz goal seems doable ;) i think in the end when its all said and done, she'll give me 1 oz exactly.. we'll see.. LOL..

Picture update at 70 days!

14 days it is! But honestly im gonna be lookin real close come day 12!! Lol

When shes ready is there a special process like putting her in the dark for a couple days? special watering? or do u guys just cut her, trim large foliage, hang to dry, trim bud, cure.. smoke? Lol

I think the total darkness thing is a total myth. Ive done that, others swear by it. I didnt notice any difference except my plants looked like they were sick. I always stop feeding nutes around day 55 of bloom with sativas so I guess with an auto youre kinda at that late game phase, you could stop now. Keep the molasses goin every other watering 1tblspoon per gallon and when shes ready chop right before the lights are about to go on if possible. trim, hang, and keep a fan blowing around for circulation just not directly on your buds. ull notice after hanging her a few days the smell goes away mostly or so itll seem, some people compare the smell to hay. but dont worry, its a part of the drying process, the cure will bring the smells back. after being hung 5-6 days later jar em up. open em (burping them) 3-5 times the first couple days but if it seems too moist dont make the mistake of closing the jar, simply leave it open that day or take the bud out..you dont want mold. open the jar for ten minutes or so at a time, then after that twice a day, 10min or so... for a couple days.. when ur confident its all dry completely you wont have to burp them at all. nothing like a good cure. the chlorophyll starts to break down and your smoke will be smoother.
