as a relative newb myself , i always follow advice someone gave me.
" if you think it's ready, give it another week "

That is a good one, I will keep that in mind for the next run.

So everything is now curing for the second week and the last measurement was 77 gram with a 65 Watt light.

I will let you know as soon as I have tasted it for the first time.

Curing under light

Haha no sorry, not under light. I forgot to mention how much I yielded in the last post, so that’s why I mentioned it

lol.. yea to ripen it’s gonna take a few weeks , the norm to wait another week is real .. if you have never seen trichomes rippened then I suggest getting a camera and not a loop,
Why?
- With a loop it shakes a bit for me , I have to find the nugg to inspect and it turns difficult.
- I got a camera 200x phone attachment, with that I can pic the trichomes a bit more efficiently and with confidence.
- Others take a small sample and check it, bad thing with that is imagine you checked it daily , at some point you gonna end up with smaller yield.
You just gonna have to find something that works for you.

My last run went like this: “let it go , let it go, let it go.. oh wait I see amber , man that took a while, I’ll chop now and next time I’ll let it go even more, what % amber was that? don’t care finish the process take notes” ..

1. You not gonna know how long it takes for a trichome to ripen (your observation) until you see it for yourself
2. Any info tips tricks and techniques you find here are to be used as part of your problem solving process, at some point you gonna have to decide what’s right info and what’s wrong.for your particular problem.
3. Others have been doing it and have their techniques down, dry and cure was my nemesis, as easy as it is to perfect it I have found that if you want quality there are things you must do and things you must avoid

Here is an example of grower progression (ish):
Have you germinated from seed? Yes
Move to step 3.
Have you cloned? No - go to the end of the line
Do you know what par is and how to use it?

Until you learn all the nuances you will end up back here, until you learn problem solving research etc.. you will end up here.

Why am I here? I like 4:20, only it’s more like 2:20

Good luck
