Impatience and inexperience.No way. They stay on the stem until they break off using fingers only. The fan leaves can come off while they hang, but the buds stay on. Not only does the final product taste better, but it's 10 times easier to trim.
IDK whats complicated about that for beginners
So do you think if the book tells them to wait until it lost 75% they're not gonna get impatient? LOL live and learn.Impatience and inexperience.
Ill let you know what I get for numbers ... im l about to harvest tomorrowNeed some volunteers with gram scales to weigh a 20-30g, fresh cut bud or stem and then weight after 24 hours drying at say, 60%rH and 65-70°f.
Thank youIll let you know what I get for numbers ... im l about to harvest tomorrow
I’m stunned that i haven’t seen anything about weight loss on any of the forums i use. It took a lot of guesswork out of my harvest this year but really want to see more results than my dozen plants. Especially if they’re not drying at 60/60, the 80% weight loss may still give a decent cure after a quicker or slower dry due to higher or lower temps and humidity.So do you think if the book tells them to wait until it lost 75% they're not gonna get impatient?

The fingers only method eliminates 100% of the guess work. And its so much faster and easier.I’m stunned that i haven’t seen anything about weight loss on any of the forums i use.

How do you tell somebody in a forum how the branch should feel. You must have a plant you can cut a bud off, do me a favor. Btw, that bud i showed in the cup isn’t as pathetic as it looked. Well maybe, i killed it twice since it flowered in July, only my third indoor attempt.The fingers only method eliminates 100% of the guess work. And its so much faster and easier.
Tobh you are dfm…60/60 rule man. live it, breath it, believe it. 10-14 days, buds ready for jars or if captain crunch on the outside with that gooey center like a fresh krispy kreme, into paper bags for another week then jars. Shit ain't rocket science if you don't deviate from the tried and true rules.
I'd check for rot behind that brown leaf, that's usually a telltale sign... unless you just left a dead leaf on.How do you tell somebody in a forum how the branch should feel.

A lot of dead leaves, it died twice without water and i totally underestimated a 200w led. No rot tho.I'd check for rot behind that brown leaf, that's usually a telltale sign... unless you just left a dead leaf on.
You don't have to explain how anything feels. Either you can trim the whole branch without tools or you can't. If you can't, then wait till you can. It's absolutely fool proof.How do you tell somebody in a forum how the branch should feel. You must have a plant you can cut a bud off, do me a favor.

For me, dry trim is 10x faster than wet. Everything just breaks off. No tools allowed.Dry and trim is a tedious process even if you have a machine to help, its still gonna be hours with some music on and getting in the zone.
Nice, if you weigh one of those sweet branches today, will it weigh less tomorrow?Branches hung in 60 f then into bags they stayed closed for 2-3 days checked on them downs to 58 rh garage is to dry into basement grow room at 60f and 60 rh opened bags for 24 hours then closed them up and wait another day I may have to fire up the humidifier for a day have to wait and see what happens it may come up on it’s own. Been using this method for 6 years works like a charm soon to be cut up and into the pails tada
Hmmm if everything stays the same I think it’s stable enough and will weigh the same or a bit more. They feel pliable todayNice, if you weigh one of those sweet branches today, will it weigh less tomorrow?
That's what's great about paper bags, even if you accidentally over dry, you can adjust the climate of the room and the bags will allow the buds to reach the ambient humidity in the room... so with a humidifier and dehumidifier, you basically can't fuck up... unless you don't burp and turn and shit had mold and goes to hell. Everything about growing weed is work. Trying to find shortcuts will inevitably lead to a lower quality outcome. I've been trimming, burping bags and jars and turning buds for weeks... am I sick of it? Yes. Will it be worth it? Also yes. The pungent aroma that smacks me in the face when I open the bags reassures me that this is so. Now if my damn grove bags would come, my life would be much easier. If FedEx sends me one more notification that my delivery is rescheduled, I may just lose my cool.Branches hung in 60 f then into bags they stayed closed for 2-3 days checked on them downs to 58 rh garage is to dry into basement grow room at 60f and 60 rh opened bags for 24 hours then closed them up and wait another day I may have to fire up the humidifier for a day have to wait and see what happens it may come up on it’s own.
