well, I chopped down a couple of plants because I felt it was time, the kolas at the top of these plants where showing a fair amount of amber trichomes...

now for the hanging and drying!!!

this was after a little trimming, my daughter wanted to save the small trim for tea and oil

Don't rush it, back that fan down a little and keep it cooler and dryer. Patience young Jedi

yeah, I know, I've done tons of reading... everyone seems to like 40 to 50 percent humidity in total darkness for 7 to 10 days checking daily for bud crispness and stem snappage... also, the fan is on the lowest setting and not aimed at the buds. It's there to just circulate the air.

yes indeed, once the nugs go into the mason jars for curing.
I've read so much in the last three years, it's as if i've done this many times. but actually doing it for the first time is fun and nerve wracking at the same time.

Hahaha that is awesome. Some good advice is keep a close eye on them in the jars for quite a while they will get moldy if you're not careful and ruin it all. As soon as they are all dried shortly after you put them in the jars for curing it's going to be like you never dried them. You can help this a little by letting them hang out a little longer and dry slower which is better anyway. Just constantly air out those jars that mold happens quick LOL
