Crud hash. Yeah not a thing in the states but Mick Jagger actually talked about it in a book.
Tribe is super respected old school but not selling much these days or then. Still, up there with Public Enemy or NWA or something.
His thing was "pen pop, and chop" tuck the weed into the blunt with a bic pen end and circle with a knife like some circumcision lol.

I was kinda sad that my grow was not smelling as strong as usual, until I remembered that we are in winter and Im not using any heater at all hahaha. I got close to one bud and it reeks. Just because the terpenes are not evaporating doesnt mean they arent there, sometimes I forget. I still got some of the 2 buds I removed to avoid mold, now that they had a few days to dry properly it stinks in a good way of course. Im gonna smoke a bit now and see if I can taste the flavor profile yet, Im so excited hahaha.

 

[Eledin]

Wow... definetely sweet and creamy is there, I can taste acidic too, a very tiny hint of lemon but the acidity is high, makes your mouth water a bit. Still this was cut 3-4 weeks before harvest time so the flavor still needs to develop and Im getting the head high of too early weed or charas now hahaha, kinda anxiety not my favorite high but it will be okay once theyre done.
EDIT: The one Im tasting is the dosidos 33 by the way.

The colder you are at the ens the tastier the buds will be with all those preserved terps.
There was a study they tried start of flower with 14h and end with 8h and there was a difference in the amout of terps.they fought it had to do with the heat

The joint looks nice

I had to cut 2 buds. The 2 plants that had 2 buds together cause I toped them late, I removed one of the two so it doesnt get moldy. Been drying it on the router for a few days, still doesnt burn clean but look at that oil ring, isnt it beatiful? The weed from my dealer doesnt do this (Keep in mind that I use more tobbaco than weed so its hard to get an oil ring, not the same as smoking hash or pure green)

The joint looks good to me. I still can't properly roll a joint lol. I'll use a rolling machine but then it's too tight.

Talking about burning clean, does that have to do with the ash? I've been rolling joints here and there with stuff I've grown but it won't burn right and the ash isn't white.

Does that have to do with proper drying/curing? When I dried this it was during the hot, humid summer. I may not have let it dry long enough.

 

[ChairmanFester]

Yeah, you don't want crumble you want a tiny bit of bounce to the squeeze but rough sandpaper feel. Or like, measure the rH...

Yes this joint wasnt burning properly because the weed wasnt fully dried so that makes black spots in the ash. If you smoke with tobbaco youre not gonna get pure white ash because there's chunks in there that dont burn well but if you smoke pure green you can get pure white ash. Proper drying and curing is important but I think one of the most important things is harvesting in the dark period when they send nutrients to the roots so youre not gonna smoke them. I also do 1 week flush even if Im growing organic because it does make the smoke milder and Im asthmatic BUT I wouldnt recommend if youre not getting the coughs because that week they could be eating and getting fatter.

 

[Eledin]

Oh and also proper rolling, you want it tight but not too tight like chairman said, if its too tight it wont pull well but if it has air pockets it will burn the side of your paper and will cause material to not burn properly aswell. Presing it properly, not too much nor too little and giving it a few taps against the table if you have some air near the roach helps a lot.

If you inhale faster your burn point will be higher and that will make white ash.can be achived with lightly packed joint

 

[ChairmanFester]

I think the liner in a blunt having a stiffness helps make air flow well. I think people are nuts with these wraps, that is NOT a blunt. You have to break up a cigar or you go buy some nice papers and have a better time.

 

[Eledin]

A slightly coned paper I like, cones on the other hand... not so much, but I try to make it as straight as possible but you know, sometimes one gets a little too excited grinding material. Ive definetely seen some crazy ass blunts coming from the US hahaha and I dont know why some people use a "tobbaco leaf" because lets be honest many times its not a pure leaf is processed, but even when it is, thats very strong, way stronger than adding tobbaco to weed unless you dont add blonde tobbaco and you add black one.

 

[Eledin]

Anesia seeds has my attention right now because they have some killer strains and this year they have come with this one and its too perfect for me to ignore. Sativa dominant but with a fair ammount of indica, sweet, lemony and minty. Trichome production is heavy with this one:

I harvest during lights on and with feeder pumps running wide open, with full strength nutes... Doesn't make enough difference to worry about for me. If I was selling it, I might do it differently...

It just adds up but its not magic, I probably notice it more cause Im asthmatic so everything that goes in smooth I prefeer even if I have to sacrifice a bit of potency by not feeding last week for example. Im not even sure what makes the most difference, I just do both and seems to work fine for less harsh smoke. If I were selling it I wouldnt flush, but because you get more yield and more potency without flushing, and according to those couple blind studies, even the flavor is more pronounced.

Best cure for harshness is let it cure for some time.i allsoo feed high ec until last day and cant say i had harsh in a long time. Maybe how dry it is allso makes it harsh

Oh yeah completely forgot about that! A bit of patience goes a long way. I try to not smoke it until its been 1 month since I choped it, keep it in jars when theyre about 60% humidity and with some burping it becomes 50%+ perfect for smoking.

I like that bud that you can dry on top of a light for 8-12 hours and it still tastes so good it makes you wanna slap yo mama.

 

[Eledin]

Oh yeah, and the oven too, the oven is more harsh on the terpenes so it will not taste much but its faster for emergencies and as long as you dont go above 140ºF they should dry nicely in a bit and the THCa should remain intact.

I was never in to blunts and I don't think I'd like tobacco with my weed. I smoke enough cigarettes as it is haha.

Its a matter of preference, I grew up with it and the high I get when only smoking green gets me anxious while the tobbaco makes it more like a bubble. Of course it can be different for other people. Also even if I wanted to smoke pure green I cant, I cough my lungs out but I have a vaper that I use from time to time and the high is more... emotionally intense hahaha.
