Cheese and crackers Canna! It’s all good. Sure thing. I’ll report back.
Ty I took them down and jarred them at day 16 and only a few stems were snappy. The other barely snapped or just bent hard. They are smelling great.It's a natural process... you want your buds I would say 90% crispy and a tiny bit soft middle... I hang dry my plant whole between 10 and 20 days depending on temps
Glad to hear that!!!! I personally will wait 30 days before trying buds... a good cure will be between 3 and 6 months... im 30 days myself then I just can't wait any longerTy I took them down and jarred them at day 16 and only a few stems were snappy.

Same here. I’m not trying it until day 30 I won’t touch this though until next year days 90-180.Glad to hear that!!!! I personally will wait 30 days before trying buds... a good cure will be between 3 and 6 months... im 30 days myself then I just can't wait any longer
I’d love to sample that. If it’s kept right, the shelf life can really go a long time. How was it nick? Super crusty and dusty? Or was it still kosher?i’ve got some buds from 3 yrs ago and still smell fantastic..
Yeah, I think a lot of light needs to be said on it. It’s a very cool topic.So, this is an interesting topic. Ive had this debate a couple times. The way I understand it, and I’m going to keep it pretty ley here, is that coumarins are an actual aromatic. Chlorophyll is a driver for fresh vigorous green growth And transpiration.
So I get what you are saying about the possibility of it. But it’s true, as zill was saying on the molecular end of things, it just isn’t so, that fresh cut grass scent only comes through for a short time as long as your drying conditions are goldilox, this will pass. One of these things just isn’t like the other.
Also if chlorophyll was giving off a scent, it would mostly be an amalgam of cal and mag iron ect. but again. That ain’t the case. It’s a cool topic really.

that actually looks really good, you kept it in the right container. Def no light penetration and good temps will keep them going a great while. And really the older a plant is the browner it gets over time. It’s just plant degradation on a natural spectrum. That’s why I really do prefer blacked out containers.
Indeed you will, but early harvest means a less formed terp profile. So you know, logically it’s just never going to have the same nose as a finished plant. Even with an appropriate cure. Sure you will coax some of the flavor out, but not fully formed more hints of flavor with a dash of grass.In my opinion, you get the hay smell while curing if you harvest too early. I've had some that had that smell for a while and needed longer cure times to get rid of it. Then I have had some that never smelled like hay and only smelled like fire all the way through drying. It seemed to me the earlier you harvest the more hay smell you have to cure off. That's just my personal observation from the plants I have grown. It could be a totally wrong answer for all I know, but it's what I have personally seen.
And also, smaller plant, faster dryout, less cure time. Much easier to pull the moisture out of a bud that’s 2inches around than one that is five inches around.

I haven't pulled it that early yet. Lmao but I believe you %100. Maybe this harvest who knows.Indeed you will, but early harvest means a less formed terp profile.

And I sure hope that you never need toI haven't pulled it that early yet. Lmao but I believe you %100. Maybe this harvest who knows.
I guess so, but I've found that by speed drying that seems to have locked in the smell. Hopefully it'll fade but I'll be through this 8th in 2 days so not giving it much timeBE,
Repeat that experiment. Not saying you’re wrong. But maybe the drying process is important in releasing the cut grass aroma.
