If you are short of smoke I would just chop a section of it. Are you going to smoke the whole plant before the rest of them come down?

First off this is the Dog I'm thinking of pulling. It'w the one with the yellow leaves and it looks pretty 'done' to me. Only thing is the cluster of white pistals near the bottom of the second pic, I see that a few places on the plant and wonder if it's not going to pack on some weight in the next couple weeks. What do you guys think?

Hehe.... I forgot to tell you why I finally decided to cut that plant. I woke up this morning, looked at the closet and the plant in question was all the way flopped over. Leaning on the light and all. Glad I peeked before lights on.

That's exactly what I thought chaka. Opened the door and was like "Alright then". Little thing was so anxious. There was a bit of burn from the light, guess it happened yesterday. Lost maybe a gram, probably less.

I'm done trimming the plant. I've eased up on my trimming a LOT. Not sure why I was so eager to cut off so many trichs before, but I'm over it.

How do you guys dry your buds? I usually leave mine on the stems and put everything in a cupboard. This time I'm using my net hanger thing, still leaving them on the branches I guess to dry slower. Does any of you cut the buds off and just let them dry as nugs?

Cof... I haven't forgot about the story I owe you.

I let the whole plant hang for at least 3 days before I start doing anything. I trim after that and they'll either go into paper bags for another day or 2 or into the jars, depending how wet they seem.

Happen to have a couple hanging right now! 2nd day. I did yank some of the fan leaves today in boredom but usually don't.

You're right about bagging after three days for a finish before cure. I trim mine before hanging
a southern charm, 2 dippy ellsy's and a blue ripper-they've been hanging about 24 hours.



:peace:

The fan leaves go in the trash, everything else on the plant u see now will go to dry ice. You know when you dry the plant whole and it goes just perfect, the weed never gets that hay smell in the jar, and even if it does it only lasts a couple days.

My last harvest I just pulled the fan leaves and hung the plants, then I was away and my assistant just clipped the buds and jarred them. Now, when I need a bud, I just grab one and brush away all the dried sugar leaves back into the jar. Nothing to it really and when the jars done, all that nice shake is sitting on the bottom just waiting for me. Because it's just my weed, I have no issues with it this way. In fact, I think I really like it and I'll keep doing it. Maybe...we'll see.

Hey Jig, hope things are good man. We have our fingers crossed over here for you guys. Have a good Saturday.

Agree 100% chaka, I recently started drying like this and the pre-cure taste is the major difference i'm noticing. I just find dry trimming a bit strenuous, not hard but i like my buds to look sexy and it make just a bit more difficult.

I'll agree with the post dry trim theme we got going on bongsmilie I did wet trimming for the LONGEST time and only really gave dry trim a shot last year.... I think i like how the leaves curl over the nugs protecting them... It also seems to slow down the dry just a little and I think that make a difference in the final product as well.

One thing about slow drying, that's how I always do it. Takes me on average 6 days to dry a bud. When I put them all together in the closed cupboard it gets a nice humidity, and things go real slow. I've had stuff drying for 9 days, but that was extreme. I don't think you would want to do this if you lived where there was humidity, with chance of mold. I will rotate everything once a day, so there aren't any wet spots.

I'm going to see how long the branches in the net thing take. If they are done in 2 days, that's too quick, but I think if they last 3 that will be ok. I think I just need to make room in the cupboard again and stick to what I know.

Snows here. :) :) :) It looks lovely. I'll take some pics.
