Yeah, if it is too dry those leaves will help you a lot.Always remove sun leaves. Sun leaves effect concentrates later. They have no effect on drying when your room has AC, hui and de hui. Sun leaves will slow down the drying process, which is beneficial when your dry room isn't dialed in. However when the room is dialed, the sun leaves don't help or hurt the dry process, as that is done with manipulating your machines.
So I always pull the sun leaves when time permits, as it makes a huge difference in concentrates.
My take on the Boveda packs is if you dry and cure properly they will prolong the quality while in storage. Most people I come across that don't like them were using them in hopes of rehydrating, which they will do, but the smell and flavor wont be the same. In other words they prevent issues not solve them.din't know what to do ? us them or not ? present use the (65% RH - some say they seal the flavor swaer it thhis thess once (steal the flavor -- really don't know what to do ??????????????????? have heard both sides of it - know that some disapenseries use them,

btw why you would dry and cure buds if you will use them for concentrates? I would just throw them directly in the freezer.
meaning they steal the taste and smell but keep it at a specific rh ? but some/many commerical gfrower/disapensaeeeeries use tyem which is the best 62% or 55 % can't rememberMy take on the Boveda packs is if you dry and cure properly they will prolong the quality while in storage.

I use 62% for storage purposes. Imo, they don't add or takeaway anything, just prevent moisture loss.meaning they steal the taste and smell but keep it at a specific rh ? but some/many commerical gfrower/disapensaeeeeries use tyem which is the best 62% or 55 % can't remember
At our farm, we have waves of harvests. First we will our rooms with as much plants as we can fit. Then we harvest everything else that is ready, and put that all strait into freezers. Then refill the rooms and repeat. So you are correct, the highest quality concentrates come from the fresh frozen. However you still have to trim all those pretty buds, and if you have a ton of fan leaf, then that trim is pretty much trash, or has to be refined 3+ times. I find if the fan leaves are removed, then the larf and trim concentrates turns out pretty nice.
Can you discuss your freeze process? You wet trim then freeze. Is this for bho?
I do pretty much the same for an outdoor grow, but on a much smaller scale..after freezing, a hash run follows, and then we rosin press a bit as well..personally, as much as I love Rosin..I still like to smoke hash..fresh frozen was a first for me this year, and it definitely will be again this summer . (Nevada)I actually have a video on my IG of me harvesting some Magnum Opus in the fields. Think mid 2017 if interested My process is:
While the plant is still alive and growing, taking branch by branch down keeping the plant alive as long as possible before harvest.
#1 Cut down a branch
#2 Rough wet trim. This will be all the fan leaves, and any leaf that doesn't appear to have THC.
#3 Buck down buds
#4 Place bud inside vac seal bags, seal in the field
#5 Place in a cooler with 20+ lbs of dry ice or more. This flash freezes everything.
#6 Once done with a single plant, take all the material and drive it up to the freezers.
This has made some amazing concentrates. Also, yes, for bho.
like to just dry and cure trimming for dry ice hash, if I wanted to store for long periods they say freezeing is the way - right ? don't know if I mentioned this before to help remove moisture in your plant remove all fan leaves 4-5 day before harvest it ensures that the plant uses all extra water or nute's + buds increase/fatten in size !!!!!Can you discuss your freeze process?

Once I make the hash..I either smoke it or squish it (after it dries...Fresh Frozen is extremely sticky and hard to handle)..Do you mean the scissor hash? If so, that caviar gets smoked up before the trimming job is even finished! LOLis it best to freeze your "hash" trimming or just dry ? Thanks !! probably makes no difference !! ??
