Quick drying your buds is pointless as it will taste shit and completely different unless you dry and cure your buds.
There are many methods for quick drying buds but its not for me as i have tried some of the methods.
OMG I no it,s pointless,i just felt the need to ask for the best way......... But not to worry, i have done it, and fuck me, im stoned...lol...... It is time to CHOP...LOL...:)
 
are you supposed to remove the yellowing leaves from your plants during the end of the flowering stage? mine have about 3 weeks more to go. i understand that yellowing is normal at this point but am wondering if there is something else that could be causing it. i have been giving them Monster Bloom (mostly phosphorus) once a week since week 3 in this cycle and also had to replace the smaller fan that i was using with a box fan that's about 4 feet from the plants but partially blocked so it's not blasting them. could either of these things be a factor in the sudden yellowing or is it normal? they were green green green until about 2 days ago. also should i be flushing the plant now? thanks

No need to flush just use straight water now untill chop down and dont cut anything untill you are ready to harvest the whole plant as some leafes may fall of by themselves and if they dont chop them off right before chopping the stem to give you room to start chopping your buds.

Ok, so it's my first grow and i have a seedling thats starting to turn yellow on the tip (other half of the pair stopped growing for some reason.) I couldn't tell on the problems section which mine was. Anybody have any ideas?
Using a 2ft cfl shoplight, 1 20w regular and 1 20w plant/aquarium bulb
Fan blowing in the box for circulation but no holes for vent. yet.
temp is about 70-80 and humidity is usually 55-70.
I could really use the help to make me quit worrying :)

So got off early and was in the City so I picked up 1 - 4 x 2 and 4 - 1 x 2, 24W T5 HO 6500K lights. I will be using these to set up a veg/mother/Clone partation in my Cabinet. Allocated partition = 28"w x 23" d x 36" h. I plan to veg 12" - 18". How would you place the 4 x 2 light and the 4 - 1 x 2? Is there room for 2 mothers?

I have a 2.58 x 2.58 x 7 foot Growlab grow tent
the light reflector/hood is half way up the tent
do you think that there would be too much light in the upper part of the tent to hang and dry bud from it while other plants are growing?
humidity and temp (at least in the upper half of the tent) are between 75 and 80, with humidity between 40 and 50

the only other place I can hang and dry is in a pc Growbox, and either it goes in the tent and gets too heated up from the light, or it blows air into the tent, possibly leaking a bunch of smell outside of the tent

PS: 400w hps with its own fan and air supply. I'm hoping maybe if i even throw up some kind of black material around the top half that it would be good enough then for them to dry up there.

Dry them like i said on a clothes line with a light breeze blowing through the room and keeping the buds away from direct sunlight. If its too hot you may get bud rot.

Well while I am doing this for a patient, I would prefer the neighbors not smell it. All I have to fight the smell is a small can of ona gel, and a filter that runs in the tent. I have to keep the window open because I don't have any kind of air conditioning in my room, and it would be real bitch to pull everything out of my closet for this (don't want everything in there to start smelling like marijuana)

Sorry I'm not trying to shoot down your advice, I'm just wondering if my idea of growing in the top half of the tent (perhaps using a dark bed sheet to surround the walls of the top half) will work (or if that would still be too much light and that I should stick with the pc grow box)

PS: even without any kind of sheet to absorb/not reflect light up there do you think that would be enough light to cause significant damage to the drying buds?

PSS: After a water cure when you are drying the wet buds, do you have to worry about drying them out too much? People seem to say it dosen't matter if you water cure. Does that mean the water sucks out enough of all the shit you don't want, that even if you suck out as much of the moisture as possible it will still be smooth?

It's about a month old. yes its indoors.
I haven't fed it anything but water. I started with some old top soil my had in the garage and had it by my window sill in the beginning, then i decided to make a box. 4x2x4 foot box painted white on the inside. It was in that soil in a starter cup under the lights for almost the whole month until a few days ago i put them in a 10 inch pot with miracle grow.i had the lights real close in the beginning and i think that's maybe why it burned. Seeing as though the others aren't burnt, but it spread a little after i raised it so it leads me to question what it really is. And i didn't know what the top soil's ph was, but i heard all MG is like 6.8 or something and my towns water is slightly acidic so i think it balances it out?
Ahh the science of cannabis. I wish they taught a class in school. :D
