Why Not Pick Buds Early, Speed Dry Technique

unless you really really cant get a hold of some real trees.







I pick this bud off earlier today thinking it looked like a good size nug, and after I sped dried it in a toaster oven I ended up with only .4 I mean smoked that in one session, and I had to smoke all the leaves just to get high, on another session

Just wait thats what Im going to do, ive been picking buds off this whole time off of one plant, im going to just leave it alone and wait till the end

Are you serious. Just wait till they are finished. Your buds look good and healthy. Your doing good with a green thumb at least.

thats the truth. they look healthy and have great potential to be some dank. dont fuck it up by being impaitent and i meen that in the nicest way possiable. trust me i know its hard but in the end u will thank yourself. Keep growing fam your doing good. What strain?

Oh and dont ever speed dry bud. Thats the dumbest shit it kills the entire point. Let that shit dry for 2-3days and put it in a jar to cure for a few weeks. then its ready to get you fucked up! cheers

what a fucking waste!!!!

they dont look that early are the at 6 months ?????? it looks like it couldve fully riped two weeks from today

those buds look 3-4 weeks premature

yea just a waste =/ oh well right?? lol

Whatta waste! Dude, you are right, stop cutting buds off! Looks like you around 2 weeks away, so just have patience.......

Proper drying and curing is the only way to get nice buds. Gets rid of all he chlorofil in the bud & makes all the different types of THC in there psychoactive, so just sit it out. Go buy some other bud if you need to smoke something and keep your paws off that lady!!

LOL, like walking out side in the rain, looking up and saying SHIT it's fucking raining LOL
yeah man, wait till she is done, it's a big ol waste to take early nugs.

Best way to quick dry I have tried and found to work is
A I grow with CFL's well I can dry with them too, I place a bit in a paper towel on top of a 26w one and it dries within the day, just gotta keep a eye on it.
B put a nig in a papwer towel, then in a small box and place that in your car (tried this the very first time).

They work ok and all, BUT no where near as well as waiting it out for them to dry properly and slowly and dont forget the cure.

Hard to wait sometimes, i have the same problem... recently had 33 pounds busted and carted away in my area, hard to hold out when my ladies are almost done and lookign so sexy =/ but to buy some shits like the sahara around here
