very nice run, P. that bud is looking exceptional and the haircut you have it was mean one. damn, now that i think about it, you make my buds look like shit. lol.
definitely got to step my trim job up after looking at your pic.
Lmao, I don't think anything can make your buds look like shit! Those picts you just posted are freaking awesome!!! I do spend way too much time trimming. I can't help it, I battle OCD tendencies. Thanks for stopping by!
Nice nuggage!!! Is that the biggest one?
And yea bro the hanging untrimmed method works very well IMO. I used to have problems getting the right dryness before jarring when trimming wet. I'd either get it too wet, or too dry. To wet and the grass/green taste would get locked in. Too dry and it would be too dry and lose lots of weight/sponginess but taste good. Now with hanging untrimmed I get a 2-3 day window to get them at least off the stems and into paper bags. If they get too dry and I'm too lazy to trim I can always jar untrimmed to make sure it doesn't get too crispy. Taste is never grassy and taste like the strain is supposed to (if flushed right and not overloaded on salts/nutes). If jarred untrimmed it usually takes a trim and 1-2 days in a jar trimmed up to smoke good and cured. With the freshly dried and trimmed stuff from paper bags it can take more like 4-5 days to smoke good and cured. Give it a shot!!! Of course just like every aspect of this hobby, takes a lil dialing in!
That is the biggest one of the smallest plant. It was my Zilla contest mulligan. So didn't get as long of a veg as the others.
I definitely jarred my buds too early when I first starting with that technique. Totally ruins the buds imo. I've been trimming wet, letting them hang dry on the stem for about 4-8 days depending, then I put them in a paper bag, or a tupperware and burp them till they stop wicking moisture out from the center. Then I put them in jars, wait a day or so and check for any smell of ammonia. after a couple of days I then seal them tight in the jar, and I have even been experimenting with vac'ing out all the air with my foodsaver attachment. If you like it, I may have to try a dry trim even if it is on a branch or two.
all caught up, very nice brother!
